Opposed both to metaphysics and to rationalism, Hume’s philosophy of informed scepticism sees man not as a religious creation, nor as a machine, but as a creature dominated by sentiment, passion and appetite.įor more than seventy years, Penguin has been the leading publisher of classic literature in the English-speaking world. With masterly eloquence, Hume denies the immortality of the soul and the reality of space considers the manner in which we form concepts of identity, cause and effect and speculates upon the nature of freedom, virtue and emotion. A pinnacle of English empiricism, it is a comprehensive attempt to apply scientific methods of observation to a study of human nature, and a vigorous attack upon the principles of traditional metaphysical thought. One of the most significant works of Western philosophy, Hume’s Treatise was published in 1739-40, before he was thirty years old. ![]()

![]() ![]() Through observing Rhiannon’s behavior and accessing Justin’s memories, A learns that Justin treats Rhiannon poorly, often making her feel small, anxious, and insecure. Soon, however, A meets Justin’s girlfriend, Rhiannon. The day begins normally, with A heading to school and attending Justin’s classes. When A wakes up in the body of a high school student named Justin, everything about A’s existence changes. Additionally, since A never wakes up in the same body twice, A tries to maintain a healthy detachment from each person’s life. ![]() ![]() A has accepted this existence, choosing to fall asleep before the switch each night, so that it occurs peacefully. Even if A stays awake, A’s spirit involuntarily-and painfully-rips from the body it is inhabiting in order to move on to the next. Over the years, A has learned that it is impossible to prevent the switch to a new body at midnight each night. When A wakes up in a new body, they have access to that person’s memories, which helps them navigate the day. ![]() Comfortable living as both male and female, A is non-binary and does not exclusively identify with either gender. A has no control over the gender, race, location, or appearance of each body they occupy, but they do always wake up in the body of a person their age. A is a sixteen-year-old disembodied spirit who wakes up in the body of a different person each day. ![]() ![]() ![]() Hope and assurance that believers will emerge victorious.

The “lawn-boy”…well, okay, he seems like a typical, bleary-eyed, sun-baked kid. ![]() The “caretakers” are undoubtedly a bit past odd, edging toward dangerous. Yes, Lori’s parents truly are startlingly naïve and absent-minded with matters of upmost importance yet oddly tenacious and relentless on the most trivial of things. While her steadier, yet clearly open-minded older by brother, leans more towards logic and rational explanations even he has that tiny glimmer of hope….the “why not?” that is sometimes lost in adulthood. Ruby’s ability to, seemingly effortlessly, capture the open desire, the willingness to believe, that most teens still carry inside of them (albeit, some much…much deeper than others). As the story centers around “nearly seventeen” year old Lorelei this reader was stunned by Ms. It is more than confident, not yet cocky accepting, unapologetic charming and totally void of any defensive vibe.
