Summerween - Halloween Town 1
Halloween just got hotter…
Welcome to Solstice Springs-where it's Halloween year-round, pink skeletons wear beachwear, and the town's biggest debate is whether the ghosts are real or just good for business
Wren Dunlop's summer plan was simple:
Hide from viral infamy
Drink rosé by the lake
Avoid all men forever
Too bad her godmother (part-time witch and full-time Mayor) has other ideas.
Now Wren's teaching dance for the Summerween spectacular, in a studio that might be haunted, and trying very hard not to notice the mysterious new guy in town, Dane Trafford.
Between bonfire wishes and midnight confessions, fairy lights and watermelon jack-o-lanterns, Wren and Dane might just discover that Solstice Springs' real magic isn't supernatural…
Tropes:
Friends to lovers
Forced proximity
Halloween in summer
Small-town setting

Maid Marian's life is over.
Her cowardly father has betrothed her to the most reviled man in the land: the Sheriff of Nottingham. Devastated, she's sent on the quickest path to meet her husband, through the fae-infested Sherwood Forest.
But everything changes when her carriage is attacked by the most feared fae of all: the Merry Men, followers of the infamous Robin Hood. Kidnapped and waiting on the Sheriff's rescue, Marian finds herself surrounded by the magical creatures she's been raised to fear. But the more time she spends in their presence, Marian realises that not everything she's been taught by her family is true.
And Marian can't help but find herself drawn to her captor - the sinfully handsome Robin, who stands between her and returning to life amongst the humans.
As the Sheriff's men close in on Marian's location, she will soon be faced with the ultimate choice: the family she's always known, or the love she can choose for herself…

Six Minutes to Winter (Paperback)
The world is currently closer to superpower conflict than at any time since the 1962 Cuban Missile Crisis. World War III is a real possibility, and with 12,000 warheads in the arsenals of more than half a dozen countries, we are standing on a nuclear knife edge.
Despite receiving very little attention, nuclear war is a far greater threat to humanity's immediate survival than climate change. While climate heating threatens humanity over many decades, nuclear war could destroy civilisation in just a few hours. A major missile exchange would mean months of near-total darkness, followed by a decade-long global nuclear winter that would destroy most life on Earth. Virtually everyone would starve in the resulting worldwide famine, and there would be no reliable refuge.
We are sleepwalking to Armageddon. There are no mass marches, no COPs, no nuclear Greta. But the climate experience teaches us that ignoring a problem is no solution, and that a worldwide mobilisation can work. Six Minutes to Winter presents an unflinching view of the nuclear nightmare, but also describes how weapons can be taken off hair-trigger alert and ultimately abolished altogether. If human civilisation is to survive long term, we have no alternative.
Spisovatelia za mrežami
Kniha Spisovatelia za mrežami (2026) zaznamenáva osudy slovenských literátov, prekladateľov a novinárov, ktorí boli v 50. rokoch minulého storočia väznení. Boli medzi nimi špičkoví spisovatelia, ďalší predstavovali akýsi stredný prúd vtedajšej literatúry, ale uväznení boli aj mladí ľudia, ktorí nemali ani dvadsať rokov a tvoriť začali až po prepustení z väzenia. Približne päťdesiat spisovateľov bolo spolu za mrežami vyše dvesto rokov - medzi nimi odporcovia komunistického režimu, ale aj jeho vysokí funkcionári.

The seeds of heresy are sown. At the dawn of the 31st millennium, the Imperium of Man has reasserted its dominance over the galaxy. It is a golden age of rediscovery and conquest, and the Emperor’s Great Crusade has placed his superhuman primarch sons at the head of the mighty Space Marine
Legions – the most powerful military force ever assembled. Newly promoted to serve as the Emperor’s Warmaster, the idealistic Horus now stands above his brothers, even as the crusade enters what must surely be its final stages and dark, cosmic truths begin to reveal themselves. Far beyond the alien threat of malignant xenos breeds or rogue human civilisations, a war now looms that could threaten the very existence of mankind…
Ariol 3: Svinsky dobrý kamoš
Také ľahké: ARIOL je somár a RAMONO prasa. Jeden je modrý, má dlhánske uši a veľké okuliare. Druhý je ružový a má rypák ako elektrická zásuvka. Niežeby sa podobali, ale sú kamoši. Až takí dobrí, že prasa niekedy robí somariny a somár prasaciny. A zrazu už fakticky nikto nevie, ktorý je ktorý.

It’s the summer of 1996, and Andy is stuck in a dead-end admin job at a Soho picture library. His dreams of becoming an indie rockstar are over, but luckily, he’s found the Next Big Thing through promoting gigs in Camden: a Norwegian three-piece who sound like ABBA meets Nirvana. Plan B is simple, live the dream vicariously by managing them. And when a record company shows interest, a door opens into an exciting new world. The only things standing in his way are a total lack of music industry know-how and his scary boss at work, who disapproves of his extracurricular activities. However, as the clock ticks towards his 30th birthday, success proves elusive. Everyone else seems to be making it, rival bands, ex-bandmates, his old band manager, even the record shop where he once worked has become famous. Andy fears he’ll never escape the day job to live his daydream. But he also knows that in music, there’s always tomorrow.

The Rules of Dating a Younger Man - Hogyan randizzunk egy fiatalabb pasival? (Hogyan randizzunk? 4.)
Az első és legfontosabb szabály, amikor egy idősebb nőt szemelsz ki magadnak: ne ess szerelembe!
A barátaim közül én voltam az utolsó, aki még nem talált rá az „igazira”. A srácok folyton unszoltak, hogy igyekezzek, és állapodjak meg végre, én azonban nem siettem sehová. Egészen addig, amíg meg nem ismerkedtem valakivel, aki után megérte loholni. Alex egyike volt azoknak az önkénteseknek, akik a Ryan Házaknál dolgoztak – egy alapítványnál, amit azért hoztam létre, hogy a kórházak közelében szállásokat építhessünk a rászorulóknak.
Nem is sejtettem, hogy Alex ugyanaz az ember, akivel a projekt útnak indítása előtt haragos e-mail-váltásba bonyolódtam, akkor ugyanis még azt hittem, hogy egy férfival van dolgom.
Nem is állhattam volna távolabb az igazságtól, hiszen Alex egy szőke bombázó, aki abban a pillanatban levett a lábamról, amint megpillantottam. A köztünk szikrázó kémia mindent felemésztő volt, Alex pedig egykettőre rabul ejtette a szívem. Sajnálatos módon a fejébe vette, hogy túl fiatal vagyok hozzá. Gyűlöltem, hogy erre hivatkozott, mivel a kor csak egy szám. Ha ez nem lett volna elég, a tekintete nem éppen ugyanazt tükrözte, mint a szavak, amik elhagyták a száját – úgy nézett rám, mint akinek nagyon is tetszik, amit lát. Tűkön ülve vártam a hétvégéket, amikor Alex és én napközben vállt vállnak vetve dolgoztunk, esténként pedig bensőséges hangulatban telepedtünk le a vacsoraasztalhoz.
Végül a maga köré húzott falakon lassan megjelentek az első repedések. Csakhogy aztán az élet olyan váratlan akadályt gördített elénk, amin még én magam is kételkedtem, hogy képesek leszünk felülkerekedni. Ha egy pillanatig is az hittem, hogy a köztünk lévő korkülönbség fogja a legnagyobb gubancot okozni, hát tévedtem.
„Letehetetlen. A könyv minden pillanatát imádtam!” – Karie, amazon.com
Engedd, hogy a kémia döntsön helyetted!
Szereted az érzéki, de tartalmas könyveket? Vidd haza nyugodtan, tetszeni fog!

The gods sent monsters to the five kingdoms to remind mortals they must kneel.
I've spent my life kneeling to their will and to my father's. As a princess, my only duty is to wear the crown and obey the king.
I was never meant to rule. Never meant to fight. And I was never supposed to be the daughter who sealed an ancient treaty with her own blood.
But that changed the fateful day I stepped into my father's throne room. The day a legendary monster hunter sailed to our shores. The day a prince ruined my life.
Now I'm crossing treacherous lands beside a warrior who despises me as much as I despise him bound to a future I didn't choose and a husband I barely know.
Everyone wants me to be something I'm not a queen, a spy, a sacrifice.
But what if I refused the role chosen for me? What if I made my own rules? What if there's power in being underestimated?
And what if for the first time I reached for it?

'Cute, clever, and bursting with that irresistible 'this is probably a bad idea … but I'm doing it anyway' energy' Reader Review
When a former popstar enrols at college, the last thing she needs is A-plus chemistry with her psychology professor . . .
Three-time Grammy award-winner Ramona Wilder has spent her youth selling out arenas. Now at age twenty-six, she's done with the spotlight and inhumane lack of privacy. She just wants to be 'normal' - starting with a place at college.
Professor Nick Navarro, recently divorced but determinedly optimistic, vows to treat this new celebrity enrolment the same as any other student. But when Ramona blazes into class and causes an uproar, he's rattled for the first time in his career.
There's an undeniable spark between them - but they definitely shouldn't act on it.
And when Ramona's old life comes calling her back, she's no longer sure where she fits.
Is Nick just a brief distraction?
Or a first chance at something real

Earth 7
An exhilarating, wildly inventive tour de force of love, humanity and the end of the world as we know it.
Two women, one raised in near solitude in a research pod in the depths of the ocean and one a luxury-resort bartender who may or may not be a robot, fall in love, cross deserts, gaze at the stars – and try not only to hold onto one another but together, possibly, salvage some trace of planet Earth.
Heartbreaking, mind-expanding, soaring with beauty, Earth 7 is at once a love letter to the world and a portrait of its slow disappearance. It’s about love and grief, microbiology and astrophysics, robots and planet Mars, and humanity in all its greatness, absurdity and distress. Welding the deeply human to the thrillingly strange, fizzing with intelligence and profoundly moving, it is the novel we need right now, and for all times.
The Matchbox Girl
From the multi-award-winning author - a beautiful, stunningly ambitious novel telling the story of a young girl's battle for survival and search for the truth in occupied Vienna
Adelheid Brunner does not speak. She writes and draws instead and her ambition is to own one thousand matchboxes. Her grandmother cannot make sense of this, but Adelheid will stop at nothing to achieve her dream. She makes herself invisible, hiding in cupboards with her pet rat, Franz Joseph, listening in on conversations she can't fully comprehend.
Then she meets Dr Asperger, a man who lets children play all day and who recognises the importance of matchboxes. He invites Adelheid to come and live at the Vienna paediatric clinic, where she and other children like herself will live under observation.
But the date is 1938 and the place is Vienna - a city of political instability, a place of increasing fear and violence. When the Nazis march into the city, a new world is created and difficult choices must be made.
Why are the clinic's children disappearing, and where do they go? Adelheid starts to suspect that some of Dr Asperger's games are played for the highest stakes. In order to survive, she must play a game whose rules she cannot yet understand.
