"To quietly persevere in storing up what is learned, to continue studying without respite, to instruct others without growing weary--is this not me?"--Confucius Confucius is recognized as China's first and greatest teacher, and his ideas have been the fertile soil in which the Chinese cultural tradition has flourished. Now, here is a translation of the recorded thoughts and deeds that best remember Confucius--informed for the first time by the manuscript version found at Dingzhou in 1973, a partial text dating to 55 BCE and only made available to the scholarly world in 1997. The earliest Analects yet discovered, this work provides us with a new perspective on the central canonical text that has defined Chinese culture--and clearly illuminates the spirit and values of Confucius. Confucius (551-479 BCE) was born in the ancient state of Lu into an era of unrelenting, escalating violence as seven of the strongest states in the proto-Chinese world warred for supremacy. The landscape was not only fierce politically but also intellectually. Although Confucius enjoyed great popularity as a teacher, and many of his students found their way into political office, he personally had little influence in Lu. And so he began to travel from state to state as an itinerant philosopher to persuade political leaders that his teachings were a formula for social and political success. Eventually, his philosophies came to dictate the standard of behavior for all of society--including the emperor himself. Based on the latest research and complete with both Chinese and English texts, this revealing translation serves both as an excellent introduction to Confucian thought and as an authoritative addition to sophisticated debate.

Not bad but read better omegaverse
Format: Kindle
Mmm. I have feelings. Some not good. Some good. It was an ok read. I've been on a omegaverse kick for awhile now. Love me some groveling alphas but this wasn't it. Actually there wasn't enough groveling and the fmc gave in WAY too quickly.
They all have f'ed childhood. The alphas, Dorian, Rafe and Cade met at an orphanage that did unspeakable things to them until Dorian and Rafe aged out at 18 and had ti wait a few years until they could "adopt" Cade, who was 3 years younger than them. They all become successful entrepreneur of sort, I think. They created an app called HeatLink.
The fmc, Eva, was sold to the pack by her horrible, abusing father. She endured just as much hardship. She is relentless with escaping the pack but she always gave in when they got too near. Like she couldn't keep her legs closed. She hates them but gave in everytime. I found her kind of weak in that sense.
The overall plot was fine. Didn't leave me yearning to read the next page. I did clock one of the identity of someone quickly though. Don't want to spoil it. Again, I've read better omegaverse books. The one good thing about the book is one of the lines from Cade on page 218: ""Please Eva. I'm sorry." She staggered back and I followed her on my knees, dragging myself. I didn't care. I just wanted her to hold me."" I'll admit, I melted a little bit for Cade, even though he was probably the worse a-hole out of the bunch.

Good Groveling!
Format: Kindle
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️.5|🌶️🌶️🌶️🌶️.5
This was really good! Definitely a dark romance! The plot was really good and was done well. I enjoyed the character development but I did wish the FMC told her pack she loved them at the end.
Overall I would recommend this to readers who like bully romances and groveling! 💖

it went on too long…
Format: Kindle
At first it was a good read and I was really into it then it got to be a little to much with every page being more about how “slick” she was or about constant sex… I like spice don’t get me wrong but this was just a little too much after a while and the plot was lost. I also felt like the ending was weird and awkward it was just a good build up to fall flat

very cute
Format: Kindle
This was a great winter read with grovel! I love that each MMC took his own approach to groveling, and that the FMC didn’t forgive them easily.

Very misleading title…but not a bad book. Spoilers!
Format: Kindle
If you love ABO fated/scent match books or even just second chance books in general this is a cute quick read. I’m really confused why the title is grovel but there is literally no groveling in the book…AT ALL!
There is only little or no thought or effort involved apologies (on two of the MMCs part, and absolutely nada on the third MMC’s part) and general alpha this omega is mine, coupled with light small town older generation meddling in the relationship, but ABSOLUTELY NO GROVELING before a heat reconnects the MCs. Honestly if it was named almost anything else I would have rated it higher, but I went in expecting at least some light groveling, and found none.
