O conto "Singular ocorrência", de Machado de Assis, tem seu norte no romance de Marocas e Andrade. No entanto, melhor do que o enredo é a trama do texto, a forma como é contada a história: dois amigos, numa esquina, fofocam sobre a personagem, que é vista por um deles.

Story
"Entre Santos", de Machado de Assis, é daqueles contos se se lê com um sorriso estampado no rosto. Nele, o autor propõe como enredo um diálogo entre santos, que discutem a crença nos homens – numa clara inversão de papéis, já que não são os homens a debater a crença nos santos. Religião, transcendência e psicanálise são temas para reflexão a partir de sua leitura.

Com o requinte metalinguístico de justificar os atos dos personagens como se tivessem vida própria, independente da pena do escritor, Machado de Assis apresenta neste conto a história da viúva Genoveva, que hesita diante do casamento com o advogado Oliveira, excelente partido, por conta dos sonhos que tem com o marido, o finado Marcondes. "Crês em sonhos?" a pergunta do narrador, que abre a narrativa, encerra bem essa sinopse!

Sydney Shaw, like every single woman in New York, has terrible luck with dating. She’s seen it all: men who lie in their dating profile, men who stick her with the dinner bill, and worst of all, men who can't shut up about their mothers. But finally, she hits the jackpot. Her new boyfriend is utterly perfect. He's charming, handsome, and works as a doctor at a local hospital. Sydney is swept off her feet. Then the brutal murder of a young woman—the latest in a string of deaths across the coast—confounds police. The primary suspect? A mystery man who dates his victims before he kills them.

Twenty-four-year-old Saeris Fane is good at keeping secrets. No one knows about the strange powers she possesses or the fact that she has been picking pockets and stealing from the Undying Queen's reservoirs for as long as she can remember. But a secret is like a knot. Sooner or later, it is bound to come undone. When Saeris comes face-to-face with Death himself, she inadvertently reopens a gateway between realms and is transported to a land of ice and snow. The Fae have always been the stuff of myth, of legend, of nightmares… but it turns out they're real.

Then, on Harry's eleventh birthday, a great beetle-eyed giant of a man called Rubeus Hagrid bursts in with some astonishing news: Harry Potter is a wizard, and he has a place at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. An incredible adventure is about to begin!

Trauma nurse Aly Cappellucci doesn’t need any more kinks. She likes the one she’s landed on just fine. To her, nothing could top the masked men she follows online. Unless one of those men was shirtless, heavily tattooed, and waiting for her in her bedroom. She dreams about being hunted by one in particular, of him chasing her down and doing deliciously dark things to her willing body. She never could have guessed that by sending one drunken text, those dreams would become her new reality.
