"Gone Girl" is a psychological thriller about the unraveling of a seemingly perfect marriage between Nick and Amy Dunne. On their fifth anniversary, Amy mysteriously disappears, and Nick quickly becomes the prime suspect. The story unfolds through alternating perspectives: Nick's present-day account of the investigation and Amy's past diary entries detailing the couple's relationship. As the police investigation intensifies, Nick's lies, deceit, and inappropriate behavior come to light, making him look increasingly guilty. However, the diary entries reveal Amy's calculated and manipulative nature, suggesting she may not be the innocent victim she appears to be. The novel explores themes of marriage, deception, media influence, and the dark side of relationships.

We hope you enjoy the fine books from the Homelandz Public Library, but please, if you enjoy a book, try to support the author in any way you can! :)
On Saturday, August 9th, we will be having a celebration of life at the Bright Shore region. This region is owned and designed by our grid member Terri S (Eva Marie) who has done an amazing job of designing and decorating this region which is based on the movie Widow Clicquot . Madame Clicquot is credited with major breakthroughs, creating the first known vintage champagne in 1810, and inventing the riddling table process to clarify champagne in 1816. In 1818, she invented the first known blended rosé champagne by blending still red and white wines, a process still used by the majority of champagne producers. During the Napoleonic Wars, Madame Clicquot made strides in establishing her wine in royal courts throughout Europe, notably that of Imperial Russia. So Saturday we will be celebrating life and the things we can accomplish when we set our minds to it. Our DJ will be Maldrul Smith and the Hostess is Terri S (Eva Marie). Join us for some really great music and dancing and let's celebrate together. And have a glass of champagne with us. The celebration begins at 2pm grid time and the dress code is casual.

Today's selection just added to the Homelandz Public Library: Every Breath, by a wonderful author, Nicholas Sparks!

"Every Breath" by Nicholas Sparks tells the story of Hope Anderson, a woman at a crossroads in her life, and Tru Walls, a safari guide from Zimbabwe, who meet by chance at Sunset Beach, North Carolina. Their connection is immediate and intense, but their paths are complicated by past relationships, family obligations, and the challenges of distance and circumstance. The story explores themes of love, loss, fate, and the enduring power of human connection, spanning decades and continents.
I begin to understand why most dance balls are still entirely filled with classic non-mesh avatars. And that isn't because nobody wants to donate their own avatars as NPCs nor make new ones.

It's because an NPC would have to work under any given condition with no clipping. But no matter how you approach alpha-ing, it's potentially unreliable.

Alpha cuts have the disadvantage of requiring scripts to work. I mean, they don't even always come with you when you Hypergrid or when you simply teleport to a place on a different region server. And what do you know, your whole body is visible again, and you can't even change that without detaching and re-attaching it which makes certain imported SL bodies blow up. And I'm not even talking about sims that don't allow avatar scripts yet.

Alpha masks are more reliable because they don't require scripts. However, they only work until some region server decides it's a good idea to change the alpha mode of your body from alpha masking to none. This is nasty on avatars already. Ruth2 v4 and Roth2 v2 let you restore the alpha mode with the HUD, but only if avatar scripts work. The same will go for the Max bodies in development. As for everything else, you'd better have backups with an intact alpha mode. But if this happens to NPCs, no chance to fix them.

If you want NPCs to be reliably devoid of clipping under any given circumstances, you have to build them from components that won't cause clipping. If you want such NPCs for a dance machine, there's the extra challenge to make them believable dancers. Easy for beach parties. Even easier for nudist places. Very tricky for ballrooms. Unless, of course, you reject a decade of avatar advancements and go for classic content on the system body.

Juno is occasionally working on NPC versions of herself that are made of content which suits today's general tastes more than what she uses herself, like a Simona body (sorry, no Legacy, you can't really dress a Legacy avatar like Juno), an EvoX head and an EvoX skin (sorry, no Doux hair because Doux themselves have never released a short bob, so the unrigged Paige hairstyle is the closest to Juno's hairdo in SL mesh). She's doing that to have something to donate to reduce the lack of newer NPCs. But her NPCs will have to rely heavily on auto-alpha. Testing them could be interesting, much less actually deploying them.

Welcome the next addition to the Homelandz Public Library - The Hunger Games, by Suzanne Collins. For your reading pleasure, we have lately been uploading in max 2k resolution (2048x2048).

The Hunger Games is a 2008 dystopian young adult novel by the American writer Suzanne Collins. It is written in the perspective of 16-year-old Katniss Everdeen, who lives in the future, post-apocalyptic nation of Panem in North America. The Capitol, a highly advanced metropolis, exercises political control over the rest of the nation. The Hunger Games is an annual event in which one boy and one girl aged 12–18 from each of the twelve districts surrounding the Capitol are selected by lottery to compete in a televised battle royale to the death.

The book received critical acclaim from major reviewers and authors. It was praised for its plot and character development. In writing The Hunger Games, Collins drew upon Greek mythology, Roman gladiatorial games, and contemporary reality television for thematic content. The novel won many awards, including the California Young Reader Medal, and was named one of Publishers Weekly's "Best Books of the Year" in 2008.

The Hunger Games was first published in hardcover on September 14, 2008, by Scholastic, featuring a cover designed by Tim O'Brien. It has since been released in paperback and also as an audiobook and ebook. After an initial print of 200,000, the book had sold 800,000 copies by February 2010. Since its release, The Hunger Games has been translated into 26 languages, and publishing rights have been sold in 38 territories. The novel is the first in The Hunger Games trilogy, followed by Catching Fire (2009) and Mockingjay (2010). A film adaptation, directed by Gary Ross and co-written and co-produced by Collins herself, was released in 2012.

That's right, for you hopeless romantics out there, here's another fine tale from Nicholas Sparks.

Dear John is a romance novel by American writer Nicholas Sparks released in 2007. Sparks took inspiration from the real-life story of his cousin Todd Vance who served in the U.S. Armed Forces. It was on The New York Times Best Seller list in 2007.

The story is about a couple who fall in love over one summer. They are separated during the man's military service. John Tyree, the main character, has a father with Asperger's syndrome. The story is partially set in Wilmington, North Carolina where John's father was a single parent who had difficulty having meaningful conversation with his son and has an obsession with coin collecting. John knows there is something different about him but he has never found out what it is. Feeling a lack of direction and no strong fatherly influence in his life, John enlisted in the U.S. Armed Forces.

John returns home on leave from the army when he gets news of his father's death. After the return he seeks out Savannah, where he is surprised to learn of her life events following her marriage to another man. It was obvious to John, Savannah, and even her new husband, that Savannah still had love for John. But he decided to let Savannah go, because he cared about her more than himself. Although drained by battle overseas and the loss of Savannah, he realizes that due to a legacy from his father, he is able to express his love in an unexpected way.

The next addition to the Homelandz Public Library is Queen of the Damned, by Anne Rice!

The Queen of the Damned (1988) is a vampire novel by American writer Anne Rice, the third in her The Vampire Chronicles series. It follows Interview with the Vampire and The Vampire Lestat. This novel is a continuation of the story that ends in a cliffhanger in The Vampire Lestat and explores the rich history and mythology of the origin of the vampires, which dates back to Ancient Egypt.
