In Cordelia's world, Making - crafting items such as hats, cloaks, watches, boots and gloves from magical ingredients - is a rare and ancient skill, and only a few special Maker families remain. When Cordelia's father Prospero and his ship, the Jolly Bonnet, are lost at sea during a mission to collect hat ingredients, Cordelia is determined to find him. But Uncle Tiberius and Aunt Ariadne have no time to help the littlest Hatmaker, for an ancient rivalry between the Maker families is threatening to surface. Worse, someone seems to be using Maker magic to start a war. It's up to Cordelia to find out who, and why . . . The Mapmakers Ever since Cordelia discovered the hidden map in her father's precious telescope, she's been searching the streets of London by starlight and trying to uncover its secrets. She's sure that her missing father is out there somewhere, and that if she follows his map, she'll finally discover the truth about his disappearance. She never expects to stumble upon a secret society of Mapmakers - or to learn that magic isn't limited to the few Maker families, but is instead all around, if you just know where to look. But the danger is lurking around every corner, and Cordelia must convince the rival Maker families to work together for once - not only to bring her father home but to save the very essence of magic itself. The Troublemakers (Hardback) Cordelia Hatmaker has finally united the Maker families and restored the kingdom's trust in Maker magic.

As the guards close in, she must flee London at once. With her father, Prospero, and friends, Sam and Goose, Cordelia sets sail on her family's ship, Little Bear, for the adventure of a lifetime. They're determined to solve the mystery of a missing girl, and to clear Cordelia's name once and for all. But soon they are in the dangerous territory of a band of legendary pirates: the Troublemakers. Is Cordelia a match for the fierce and unstoppable pirate queen?

The Hopeless Series by Colleen Hoover is a compelling and emotional series that follows the lives of two teenagers who are struggling with their pasts. The series is made up of four books, each of which builds upon the previous one to create a story that is full of heart, hope, and healing. The first book in the series is called Hopeless and introduces us to the protagonist, Sky. Sky has always felt different from the other kids at school, and she has never quite understood why. However, her world is turned upside down when she meets a boy named Holder, who seems to know more about her past than she does. As they embark on a journey to uncover the truth about her past, Sky and Holder, find themselves falling in love. But when the truth is finally revealed, it threatens to tear them apart. The second book in the series, Losing Hope, tells the story from Holder's perspective. After losing Sky, Holder is left struggling to make sense of his life. However, as he begins to uncover the truth about his own past, he realizes that he may have a chance to win Sky back. With the help of his friends and family, Holder sets out to prove to Sky that their love is worth fighting for. The third book in the series, Finding Cinderella, is a novella that tells the story of Daniel and Six. Daniel has always been a bit of a player, but when he meets Six, he realizes that he may have finally found someone worth committing to. However, Six is hiding a secret that could destroy their relationship before it even begins. As they navigate the ups and downs of love, Daniel and Six must decide if they are willing to take a chance on each other. The fourth and final book in the series, Hope Forever, brings Sky and Holder's story to a close. As they prepare to graduate from high school, Sky and Holder must face the challenges of adulthood while also dealing with the aftermath of their past. With the help of their friends and family, they must find a way to move forward and build a future together. One of the things that makes the Hopeless Series so compelling is the way that Colleen Hoover has created characters that are both relatable and complex. Sky and Holder are not perfect people, and they both have a lot of emotional baggage that they are carrying with them. However, they are also incredibly resilient and determined to overcome their pasts and build a better future for themselves. Another aspect of the series that is particularly powerful is the way that it deals with themes of trauma, abuse, and mental health. These are all topics that can be difficult to discuss, but Colleen Hoover handles them with sensitivity and compassion. By shining a light on these issues, the Hopeless Series helps to break down the stigma surrounding mental health and encourages readers to seek help if they are struggling. Overall, the Hopeless Series is a must-read for anyone who loves a good romance with a lot of heart and depth. The characters are complex and well-developed, the writing is...
