Summary
Two years after the Unjoining, she saw Zosia in London, of all places – nearly unrecognizable in her winter attire – bundled up to her nose. But Carol felt her presence like a sawed-off shotgun wound to her stomach. The sight of her eyes peeking over the edge of her scarf, sparkling with mirth as she shouldered the woman she was walking with –
Well, it was fucking devastating.
‘Who is Carol?’ Spray-painted in canary yellow, stood out against the rain-darkened concrete of the building across the street from The Ritz where Carol was staying.

Summary
“I didn’t keep most of the memories. Other people’s memories. I get flashes of big things, births, deaths. Except about you.”
Carol feels the confusion slip onto her face. Nervousness creeps up her spine again. “Me?”
“I know everything that anybody has ever thought about you, Carol. Every memory. Every feeling. Helen. Your ex-girlfriends. Your dentist. It’s like I have a Carol encyclopedia in my head.”
Carol had thought that she was done experiencing fresh horrors. What a nightmare it is to realize that she is not. “Oh, god.” She says.
“Oh, god,” Zosia agrees.
After they manage to break Zosia free of the hive, Zosia and Carol try to navigate the field of landmines that is their relationship.

Summary
She thought she could do this. She thought she could handle it, but now she knows for certain that she can't. She can't attend the wedding. She can't sit there and watch Regina marry Robin when all that she wants is to be the one in his place, just like she is now. This is torture, plain and simple, and Emma can't take it.
She lets go of Regina's hands, taking a step backward, ready to run for it, but Tink's voice cuts through and stops her.
"Ah, just one more thing, Emma. We still need to practice the binding."

Summary
Recent graduate and aspiring journalist Andy Sachs isn’t thrilled to learn she’s the secret heir to a throne. Now, she's got eighteen months to decide whether to become a queen or follow her passion. Along the way, she might learn a thing or two about life and leadership from Miranda Priestly—and possibly lose her heart in the process. One thing's sure: Genovia and Runway are both convinced she's in dire need of a makeover.
This is not a fairy tale, but it is a love story.

Summary
Queen Abigail's company have come to the White Kingdom, about which everyone is delighted except for Lady Regina Mills, a long time guest of the White Kingdom, because the idea of weeks spent in the company of Leopold's brash niece, Emma Swan, is quite intolerable. While waiting for the marriage of Prince James and Princess Snow to take place, the party decide to have a little sport at Regina and Emma's expense. After all, two so adamantly opposed to love - and, in particular, their love for each other - would make a most comic pairing.
Featuring a masquerade, a sleeping curse, Henry knowing more than he should, some dreadful butchering of Shakespeare's 'Much Ado About Nothing', and a fair helping of romance.
