Summary
Jack was a normal, albeit self-important, young businessman. Up until he wasn't.
Problem A: He woke up in the body of the unfathomably handsome teenage boy residing in T.M. Riddle's diary.
Problem B: This apparently meant that he was somehow transported into the world of Harry Potter, a property of which he hardly knew anything about.
Light at the End of the Tunnel A: He managed to attain a physical body.
Problem C: Everyone and their mother was of the belief that he was Voldemort's son, and therefore destined to kill them all. Harry Potter himself seemed unshakably sure of the notion that Jack was out to kill him.
Problem—well, maybe he ought to leave some of the alphabet for everybody else.

Summary
Look, I’ll be the first to admit that I had never much bought into the whole pearly gates or eternal damnation business. I couldn’t tell you what I was expecting of the afterlife - but it sure as hell wasn't this.
Moody glowered. "What is with you today?"
I grinned back at him. Oh, you have no idea.
You died, the first time, on a random thursday afternoon. Waking up in the body of a young - and very much alive - Moaning Myrtle, you couldn't quite believe your luck. But alas, no rest for the newly deceased. There is work to be done. Between stopping Tom Riddle from opening the Chamber of Secrets, evading the Knights of Walpurgis, and figuring out just why Olive Hornby hates you so much, you’ve got a very busy afterlife.

Summary
Several years ago, a postdoctoral student named Elizabeth found herself landing in Middle Earth, a place that she had read and watched many times before. Only, this Middle Earth was different- darker. The Last Alliance of Elves and Men never happened for the elves abandoned mankind by forming a secret truce with Sauron. Mankind eventually won the war at great cost and quickly turned on those who betrayed them, the elves. Now, all elves in Middle Earth are hunted, and those caught are enslaved.
In this strange and dark version of Middle Earth, Elizabeth found her way to Minas Tirith, became a heralded healer, and eventually her medical skills, knowledge of Middle Earth, and whits granted her the honorable position of Head Advisor to the King. For many years she has served Gondor well and fallen in love with this magical- if at times barbaric place. Yet, all this changes when an elf she recognizes shows up. Now, she finds herself navigating the dark waters of politics whilst trying to keep both her morality and responsibilities in tact.
What will happen when she finds herself the master of an elven slave she never wished to own?

Summary
Reborn in 1970s England with fragments of another life, I was eight when my mother vanished into a storm and left me to raise myself. By the time my Hogwarts letter came, I’d sworn to stay invisible and let the story I already knew play out without me.
I’m not managing it.

Summary
opia
n. - the ambiguous intensity of looking someone in the eye, which can feel simultaneously invasive and vulnerable -- as if you were peering through a hole in the door of a house, able to tell that there's someone standing there, but unable to tell if you're looking in or looking out.╪
There's this voice, in the back of his head. It's been with him this entire life. Sometimes it sounds like his own, sometimes it's his father, and sometimes it's someone else, someone distant and cold and unfamiliar.
You can't save everyone, the voice says.
It is his heart that responds, You have to try.
