Five Feet Apart
Soon to be a major motion picture starring Cole Sprouse (Riverdale'sJughead) and Haley Lu Richardson (The Edge of Seventeen and Recovery Road)!
In this moving story that's perfect for fans of John Green's The Fault in Our Stars, two teens fall in love with just one minor complication - they can't get within a few feet of each other without risking their lives.
Can you love someone you can never touch?
Stella Grant likes to be in control - even though her totally out of control lungs have sent her in and out of the hospital most of her life. At this point, what Stella needs to control most is keeping herself away from anyone or anything that might pass along an infection and jeopardize the possibility of a lung transplant. Six feet apart. No exceptions.
The only thing Will Newman wants to be in control of is getting out of this hospital. He couldn't care less about his treatments, or a fancy new clinical drug trial. Soon, he'll turn eighteen and then he'll be able to unplug all these machines and actually go see the world, not just its hospitals.
Will's exactly what Stella needs to stay away from. If he so much as breathes on Stella she could lose her spot on the transplant list. Either one of them could die. The only way to stay alive is to stay apart. But suddenly six feet doesn't feel like safety. It feels like punishment.
What if they could steal back just a little bit of the space their broken lungs have stolen from them? Would five feet apart really be so dangerous if it stops their hearts from breaking too?
Život je stupídny a plný pochybností
Žena dievča, žena dospelá, žena matka, žena manželka, žena rozvedená a žena starnúca. Hlavne žena neustále pochybujúca o sebe a o svete, ktorý ju obklopuje. Žena v trysku desaťročí. Hrdinkou týchto poviedok, ktoré vznikli v rokoch 1987 až 2017, je skrátka žena. Trápia ju problémy finančné, vzťahové aj filozofické. Ako hovorí názov jednej americkej telenovely, tak plynie čas. A čas plynie neúprosne aj našej hrdinke.
The Last Letter from Your Lover Film tie
When journalist Ellie looks through her newspaper's archives for a story, she doesn't think she'll find anything of interest. Instead she discovers a letter from 1960, written by a man asking his lover to leave her husband - and Ellie is caught up in the intrigue of a past love affair. Despite, or perhaps because of her own romantic entanglements with a married man . . .
In 1960, Jennifer wakes up in hospital after a car accident. She can't remember anything - her husband, her friends, who she used to be. And then, when she returns home, she uncovers a hidden letter, and begins to remember the lover she was willing to risk everything for.
Ellie and Jennifer's stories of passion, adultery and loss are wound together in this richly emotive novel - interspersed with real 'last letters'.

100 years ago...
100 years ago... is a book about two people fighting through world wars, and eventually falling in love with each other. They go through psychological changes, for love, their motives change, one keeps on fighting for their homeland to guard and to finish war, while the other fights and travels to see them again, but the events change their whole psychee too. Their personality traits differ, thus when they go through different types of sadness and even depression, they show different results. The goal of this novel is not to achieve a happy ending, but to create the atmosphere, and ask life questioning philosophies, to show how different people act in both mutual and different situations, and how they can be there for each other, to be understanding, argue maturely, or even solve the problems they face, so the final goal is to teach readers to show how one can be a better person even if only minimally.

Čtyři muži na vodě
Frajeři z knihy Opilé banány jsou zpátky, po dvaceti letech se znovu sešli v plné polní a jako by se za ty roky nic nezměnilo. Právníka Honzu Břečku dovedli k oltáři opilého, Víťovi s sebou na výlet musí vzít aspoň nafukovací pannu a Jirka Ptáčník hraje ve filmech, kde mu nejlíp ze všeho jdou mrtvoly. A Petr nějak nevědomky sešel na cestu vyšlapanou alkoholickým otčímem Béďou. Touhu někam pláchnout má tohle mužstvo pořád stejnou. Tentokrát to ale vezmou po vodě. Jejich vtipné a trapné eskapády plynou příběhem stejně jako gumový člun naložený namísto posádky basou piv. Kafe se tam pije jedině ovoněný rumem a čeká se, až všechno uschne a kocovina vyprchá. A i když člověka pozře jez, cestou po proudu poztrácí parťáky, nebo když se kvůli rybičkou prodloužený čáře života nedozví datum svý smrti, není důvod k panice. Občas se totiž může mimo ocitnout každej z nás a zkrátka nikdo nikdy neví.

Wounded poems
"Watch me be born, watch me bloom and then die, watch me resurrect." - Elliotte P. Joel on Wounded Poems "Her poetic expression is barbaric, yet so dignified." - T. S. The debut poetry collection of Slovak-American author Elliotte P. Joel offers a time-lapsing observation of young poet's works captured from the age of 15 to 19. This literary work established a unique and novel genre of contemporary poetry - nonsensical impressionism. The prevalent subject of rejection and loss, as well as dissociation from society and the conventional way of living, can be found contrasting alongside subjects of profound love and the wandersome freedom of mind. With a vivid flow of words accompanied by almost otherworldly imagery, Joel equips her poetry with both emotional and intellectual stimulation. Despite a few obstacles that could have been a disadvantage, such as Joel having English as a second language or her being barely 20 during the time of publishing, Wounded Poems gained major success in the USA, Great Britain, Slovak Republic and Czech Republic.
