During her years in social work, her primary focus was on working with children who came from deprived backgrounds. She had a wealth of knowledge on children but realized she could not live without her gifts of drawing and writing. After she had completed school, she studied education as she wanted to be a social worker. In her early life, she had many visions of being a pilot, an astronaut and living with the Red Indians. In school, she was good and liked writing essays although they were too long. This category is the one to which Cornelia Funke falls.Ĭornelia Funke was born on December 10, 1958, in Dorsten, North Rhine-Westphalia, Germany. Authors not only encourage our living but also shape the image of the society. It is the work of authors that inspires other writers to develop self-belief and confidence in their career. During their childhood, there could be those books they liked and could stay up too late in the night reading them. To become a renowned book author like Cornelia Maria Funke takes a great motivation and must have had various mentors and role models alike. In them, we find something to aspire for and someone to look. Authors are the role models of the society and as such they are imperative. Authors are very inspiring for various reasons. Authors have to be masters of their art and as such ought to create well-observed characters and the details surrounding them.

It sounds a little cliche- can a guy and a girl really be friends without attraction getting in the way? And then, of course, when that happens, someone usually ends up falling harder than the other person, or the feelings aren’t returned. I had no expectations, but was more than pleasantly surprised!

Meanwhile, the treacherous human queens who returned to the Continent during the last war have forged a dangerous new alliance, threatening the fragile peace that has settled over the realms. The fire between them is undeniable, and only burns hotter as they are forced into close quarters with each other. But her temper isn’t the only thing Cassian ignites.

Worse, she can’t seem to move past the horrors of the war with Hybern and all she lost in it. And ever since being forced into the Cauldron and becoming High Fae against her will, she’s struggled to find a place for herself within the strange, deadly world she inhabits. Nesta Archeron has always been prickly-proud, swift to anger, and slow to forgive.
