Nestled deep in the snowy mountains of the Lost Range, the village of Reverie is a small miracle. Beyond the reach of the Sun, Reverie is dependent upon the magic of the mysterious Starmaker: every morning, he trudges across a vast glacier and pulls in sunlight over the peaks, providing the village with the light it needs to survive. Aurora Finch grew up on tales of the Starmaker''s magic, never imagining she''d one day meet him. But on the morning of her wedding, a fateful encounter in the frostbitten woods changes everything.

With her newfound abilities tied to the survival of the village, Aurora is swept away to his ice-covered castle and far from everything she''s ever known. The Starmaker is as cold and distant as the mountain itself, leaving Aurora to explore his enchanted castle alone.

But a deadly frost approaches and Aurora must uncover what the Starmaker is hiding before she is left in an endless winter that even the Sun cannot touch.

Wolfe claims he is from a coven that practices dark magic, making him one of the only people who can help her.

As the sea grows more violent, her coven loses control of the currents, a danger that could destroy the alliance as well as her island. Tana will have to choose between love and duty, between loyalty to her people and loyalty to her heart.

"PREPARE-SE PARA SER ENFEITIÇADO." — Stephanie Garber, autora best-seller de Caraval "Tão doce quanto feroz, Me chame à meia-noite é uma história habilmente construída sobre amizade, segredos, magia e um romance proibido que incendeia." Rebecca Ross, autora de Divinos Rivais "Com uma atmosfera exuberante caraterística da escrita de Griffin e um tom profundamente romântico, Me chame à meia-noite é a sua nova fantasia favorita." Adalyn Grace, autora de Belladonna Tana Fairchild nasceu com toda a sua vida definida. Ela sempre soube que deveria se casar com o filho do governador e garantir uma aliança entre as bruxas da ilha de Encantamento e as pessoas do continente que enxergam a magia como ameaça. Por anos, o coven de Tana apaziguou os ânimos entre bruxas e humanos, praticando apenas magia baixa e liberando a maior parte dela no oceano. Porém, quando Tana comete o erro fatal de perder esse ritual — o que pode lhe custar a vida —, não há ninguém a quem ela possa recorrer... apenas Wolfe, o responsável por fazê-la perder tal compromisso. Wolfe é membro de um coven que pratica magia proibida, algo que Tana imaginou não existir mais — pelo menos em Encantamento. O grupo vive nas sombras, praticando magia de maneira reclusa, mas acredita que o coven de Tana faz estragos muito maiores ao renegar os próprios poderes. Afinal, os rituais mensais que praticam, nos quais o excesso de magia é lançado no mar, o tornam mais violento e as correntezas ficam cada vez mais incontroláveis, um perigo que pode destruir a aliança com o continente e até mesmo a ilha. Ele concorda em ajudá-la, mas com uma condição: Tana terá de aprender a usar a magia que Wolfe pratica. Uma magia que a faz se sentir poderosa. Viva. Mas Tana precisará escolher entre a lealdade ao seu povo e a lealdade ao próprio coração.

This thesis analyses EU regulation of social media content governance, focusing on how the law addresses the impacts of the largest platforms on structural social injustice. To do so, it draws on theoretical perspectives from political philosophy, feminist and queer legal theory, and law and political economy, and synthesises a wide range of empirical scholarship that illuminates the unjust impacts of social media platforms'' content governance. It makes three main arguments.First, EU law cannot effectively address unjust impacts - such as discriminatory content moderation, online violence, or the unequal visibility of different social groups - because it regulates them in a highly individualistic and formalistic way, focused on protecting individual rights and consistently applying predefined rules, which overlooks systemic inequalities and their connections to underlying political-economic structures. Second, moreover, the law often actively contributes to injustice: for example, by excluding minority perspectives from platform governance, or by making it easier for state institutions to target politically disfavoured content for removal. Third, the two aspects of the legal framework which are widely seen by experts as the most promising levers to address systemic inequalities and power disparities - risk management obligations, and human rights principles - are also incapable of counteracting these problems. They remain limited by a technocratic, depoliticised and marketised regulatory paradigm, which excludes genuine political contestation of the power of ''big tech'' platforms to organise online content in line with their own commercial interests.
