Finding 'Gripsholm Castle' for free requires some sleuthing. First, check if it’s in the public domain where you live—copyright laws vary. If yes, platforms like HathiTrust or Google Books might have scans.
No luck? Try LibGen (Library Genesis), though legality’s murky there. I’d prioritize ethical options like libraries or used bookstores. If you’re desperate, maybe a German-language edition is easier to find free (it’s originally 'Schloss Gripsholm'). Either way, Tucholsky’s wit is worth the effort—his satire still bites decades later!
Ah, the hunt for free books—I’ve been there! For 'Gripsholm Castle,' I’d start by digging into academic or public domain databases. Since it’s a pre-WWII German novella, it might be copyright-free in some regions. The Internet Archive is a goldmine for stuff like this; their 'borrow' feature lets you read digitized versions legally.
If that doesn’t pan out, try searching for PDFs uploaded by universities—sometimes professors share texts for coursework. Just be wary of sketchy sites offering 'free downloads'; they’re often malware traps. Personally, I’d rather hunt down a cheap used copy or hit up a library than risk my laptop’s health. Plus, there’s something nostalgic about holding an old book like this—the yellowed pages practically whisper history!
I’ve stumbled upon this question a few times in book forums, and honestly, it’s a bit tricky. 'Gripsholm Castle' by Kurt Tucholsky is a classic, and while I’m all for sharing literature love, it’s important to respect copyright laws. The book was published in 1931, so depending on your country’s copyright rules, it might be in the public domain. Sites like Project Gutenberg or Open Library often host older works legally—maybe check there first?
That said, if it’s not freely available, libraries are a fantastic resource. Many offer digital loans through apps like Libby, and some even have interlibrary loan systems for harder-to-find titles. I’d also recommend secondhand bookshops or online marketplaces; you can often snag a copy for a few bucks. Supporting authors (or their estates) matters, even for older works—it keeps literature alive!

Noontide

3.9K
The Pentarchy famiglie forbid their heirs from marrying commoners.
But Matteo Adorni loves me so deeply that he plays revolver roulette against his father just to be with me. Even as blood soaks through his shirt, he still holds me and smiles softly.
He says, "Don't be afraid, Rosella. Only death can separate us."
But later, he secretly sleeps with Giorgia Vitalis behind my back.
When I discover this, he explains guiltily, "The price for the famiglia allowing us to stay together is for Giorgia to give birth to my heir. Please wait for me, okay?"
After that, he sleeps with Giorgia 33 times, and they have a daughter.
However, the heir must be a boy.
So, he sleeps with Giorgia another 99 times. This time, when Giorgia becomes pregnant again, she tearfully accuses me of poisoning her unborn child.
Matteo points a gun at me. "Why are you trying to kill Giorgia? Why are you trying to kill my child?"
I am chained inside the Adornis' dungeon. All I can do is beg day after day.
Finally, the dungeon doors open once again...
This time, I will not wait for him anymore.
My Vampire Fiancé Refused to Lend Me Money, So I Married the Northern Lord

I'd upset my fiancé again, the men I'd grown up beside.
All because I wanted to borrow thirty million from him to buy back a ruby brooch.
Adrian was heir to the Vampire Prince. To him, the money was nothing.
But in front of every servant in the house, his face went cold.
"Elena. Don't be greedy."
Disdain filled his eyes.
"Yes, your mother died saving me fifteen years ago, yet I agreed to marry you."
"You're only human. Don't presume on that."
My throat closed. I'd been about to explain that the brooch was the only thing I had left of my mother.
But Adrian had already looked away, impatient.
"Whatever it is, it can wait until I'm back. Stop making a scene."
I ran my thumb over the few thin bills in my pocket and lowered my head.
A whole year of quiet work for the manor's servants, and that was all I'd saved.
I was still wiping my eyes when I got back to my room, and my father called again.
"Elena, have you decided? This is for your own good. No matter how long you wait, young Master Adrian will never marry you."
"Why don’t you take your stepsister's place. Marry into the North instead. You'll have an easier life."
This time, I didn't argue.
"Fine. I'll do it."
"But I want thirty million in return."

At my daughter's high school graduation party, she greeted me with a bouquet containing her wish list.
"My dearest Mom!
"My life truly begins at eighteen!
"This is the first step toward rebuilding my social image and starting an entirely new life!
"Thank you, Mom, for supporting me completely!"
The list tucked into the bouquet included the newest phone, tablet, laptop, and earbuds.
Together, the smaller items cost more than five thousand dollars.
But the final line, printed in bold red letters, stabbed into my eyes like the point of a knife:
Helena Abernathy must give Chloe Collins a house free of charge. The property will be for Chloe's exclusive use, and no one else will be permitted inside.
I stared at the bouquet, while the soul that had died unjustly in my previous life trembled inside my body.
Last time, I carried that bouquet home and tossed and turned all night.
In the end, I still tried to discuss it with my daughter. "Chloe, about the house... I truly can't afford it right now."
"Could we possibly..."
Chloe was silent for three seconds before accusing me through tears.
"I knew it! You never loved me. You only love yourself!"
My photograph, address, and workplace were posted across social media.
Then came the online attacks, the doxxing, the red paint splashed across my door, and the suspension from my job.
When I stood on a rooftop, unable to endure the abuse any longer, the people below kept recording and shouting:
"Jump! If you aren't guilty, why would you jump?"
This time, I looked down at the bouquet in my arms and smiled. I didn't want the list.
And I didn't want this daughter anymore.
