Things that lurk in the shadows and slip into your dreams. Let’s get into the synopsis and my thoughts! ![]() I do have some issues but is it honestly a book review by me if I don’t have an issue with something? I do recommend you read at least my review for Rhapsodic before reading this one. Dark Harmony is the third and final book. We are finally at the end of The Bargainer series by Laura Thalassa. I am so sorry for how reflective this picture is! I only own this book on Kindle and its black cover makes it very hard to photograph. ![]() ![]() ![]() As he had already written the entire trilogy as a single story, he is now actively revising the content to ensure that it is satisfying as a standalone story for the third book. Shortly before the publication of the first novel The Name of the Wind, Rothfuss expressed in an interview that he had The Doors of Stone in mind as a tentative title for the third book. However, Rothfuss intends to create more works set in Temerant. ![]() It will cover the third and final day of the story as related to Chronicler, concluding "Kvothe's story" and the "arc" begun in The Name of the Wind. ![]() The Doors of Stone will pick-up the story of Kvothe's life from where The Wise Man's Fear left off. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() To be honest, all the five main characters are rather boring. And there is no Heathcliff in the other sense either: the mysterious, dark, potent character that you want to know all about and despair cause you never do. In a manner, Night and Day is very observational: there is no one Jane Eyre to identify with and there is no couple like Heathcliff and Catherine who everyone is obviously supposed to be rooting for. The story is about engagements – Katharine, William, Ralph, Mary and Cassandra fall in and out of love with one another and set up and break down engagements. ![]() The novel is an interesting mix of the conventional 19 th century love-story, which was obviously the model Woolf had in mind, and of that stuff, which would make Woolf the Modernist starshine she was. This was her best attempt at a boring book. Woolf probably would have not been able to write a bad book. Night and Day is not a bad book, not at all. It has now probably been a month since I finished it, and I must admit it still hasn’t awoken in me the same feelings of wonderment and exhilaration as Woolf’s books usually do. Even Woolf herself didn’t consider her second novel much, calling it her “exercise in the conventional style”. Night and Day has a little bit of a dreary reputation so I left it to be the last one to read it was preceded by the wonderful Flush and the epic The Years. Reading Night and Day was the concluding part of my ingenious plan to read all of Woolf’s novels before I’d start my PhD on her. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Though they dated for some time, Grayson broke it off for unknown reasons.

In 1995 her (still-radioactive!) ashes were interred in the Pantheon in Paris, making her the first and only woman to receive such an honor. She was awarded Nobel prizes in physics (1903) and in chemistry (1911). Curie carried out groundbreaking research, providing the first detailed description of radioactivity and using its detection to discover two new elements: polonium and radium. In the early part of the twentieth century, when professional opportunities for women were rare, she was the first woman to obtain a doctoral degree from the Sorbonne. Most scientists, especially women, are fascinated by Marie Curie. ![]() ![]() I especially enjoyed the Lois and Clark scenes - of course!
