Liar
The next book in TikTok sensation Tate James's Madison Kate series, a spicy and suspenseful "why choose" romance. Since arriving back to Shadow Grove, MK has been stalked, tormented, chased...and lied to by the boys she was growing to trust. But they're about to learn that they've met their match.
"Liar, liar, pants on fire."
The words scrawled on the back of my newest stalker mail make my blood run cold. I have no idea if the lie is one I know I'm telling...or one that I don't.
Since arriving back to Shadow Grove, I've been stalked, tormented, chased, and almost killed. I've been lied to, repeatedly, by the boys I was finally growing to trust-and more.
Liar.
That word haunts all four of us, but it haunts me the most. Someone knows more about my life than I do. Someone is taunting me with answers and teasing me with secrets. Am I desperate enough to fall for more deception? To fall deeper into this tangle of danger and heat?
One thing is for sure- Archer and his boys made a huge mistake when they decided to keep me from the truth. They thought they could play me, but they're about to learn that they've met their match.
No one stabs Madison Kate in the back and gets away with it.

Cheers to TV
The duo behind Cocktails of the Movies returns with dozens of delicious and easy-to-prepare drinks that will elevate your next TV watch party.
The perfect pop culture pairing, this collection of drinks inspired by iconic television characters blends old and new, spicy and sweet, strong and mellow.
Cheers to TV connects sixty cocktails to stars of the small screen. Some are invented specifically for that character, such as the Bloody Ending, inspired by Game of Thrones’ Daenerys Targaryen, or the Stringer Bell, an ode to The Wire. Others deliver a TV twist to an established cocktail—a Rusty Nail for Better Call Saul’s titular hero, for instance. Some are cocktails created by the show itself—Absolutely Fabulous’ Stoli-Bolli is sure to outlive its boozy inventor Patsy Stone. There are mocktails like the Banana Stand (honoring George Michael Bluth from Arrested Development), coffee-tinged drinks such as the Central Perk (for Friends’ Rachel), and even a rainbow slushie inspired by Pose’s Blanca Evangelista.
Along with clever, original illustrations, straightforward recipes, and engaging texts about the shows and characters, the authors cover the mixology basics: bar equipment; types of spirits, liqueurs, juices, and bitters; garnishes and glassware.
Whether you prefer appointment television or an hours-long stream-a-thon, this book will up the enjoyment factor. Just remember: sip the cocktail, binge the show.

As If on Cue
A pair of fierce foes are forced to work together to save the arts at their school in this “enemies-to-lovers rom-com of my dreams” (Rachel Lynn Solomon, author of Today Tonight Tomorrow) that fans of Jenny Han and Morgan Matson are sure to adore.
Lifelong rivals Natalie and Reid have never been on the same team. So when their school’s art budget faces cutbacks, of course Natalie finds herself up against her nemesis once more. She’s fighting to direct the school’s first ever student-written play, but for her small production to get funding, the school’s award-winning band will have to lose it. Reid’s band. And he’s got no intention of letting the show go on.
But when their rivalry turns into an all-out prank war that goes too far, Natalie and Reid have to face the music, resulting in the worst compromise: writing and directing a musical. Together. At least if they deliver a sold-out show, the school board will reconsider next year’s band and theater budget. Everyone could win.
Except Natalie and Reid.
Because after spending their entire lives in competition, they have absolutely no idea how to be co-anything. And they certainly don’t know how to deal with the feelings that are inexplicably, weirdly, definitely developing between them…
Lacná kniha Trauma očima dítěte (-90%)
Základní pravda, kterou autoři v knize Trauma očima dítěte přinášejí, je, že dospělí mají nejprve věnovat
pozornost vlastnímu emočnímu stavu, protože děti mohou uvolnit své napětí pouze v přítomnosti klidného, schopného
a konejšivého dospělého. To, kdo jsme, je důležitější než to, co děláme. Přesněji řečeno, to, kdo jsme tváří v tvář
znepokojivé situaci, ovlivní podobu i následky toho, co děláme. Levine a Klineová nám dávají příležitost naučit se léčit
trauma tím, že budeme následovat toho nejlepšího učitele: naše vlastní tělo a pocity.
Techniky "prevence" traumatu, které Levine a Klineová v této knize přinášejí, jsou dokonalé svou moudrostí a
jednoduchostí, pozorností k detailu, tím, jak postupujeme krok za krokem, a jasnými principy toho, jak jich použít.
Autoři dbají na to, aby byly tyto principy využívány praktickým způsobem tak, aby mohly být naplněny specifické
potřeby dětí v různých stádiích vývoje, od raného dětství po dospívání.

Hate
"Madison Kate Danvers was murdered tonight."
Those words changed my life, and not for the better.
They were wrong, of course. I wasn't dead. But I was set up.
After being framed for a deadly riot, charged with a string of offences, and being made into an example by my politically minded father, I'm eventually released back into Shadow Grove. I could keep my head down, but I only have one thing on my mind.
Hate.
The boys who framed me are going to pay for derailing my carefully laid-out future. They're going to catch the full force of my revenge. Except when I arrive back in town, thanks to my father's shiny new girlfriend, I find all three of them living in my house, right down the hall.
Archer, Kodiak, and Steele are secretive. Untrustworthy. Dangerous-and dangerously magnetic, too. But I'm not falling for their games. Not after what they did to me.
Archer D'Ath and his boys messed with the wrong chick, and they're about to learn just how cold Madison Kate's hatred can run.
Art in Flower
Introduces an original take on floral design that teaches us to see the world anew
Based on Lindsey Taylor’s popular Wall Street Journal column ‘Flower School,’ on its surface this book demonstrates how Taylor creates stunning but achievable floral arrangements inspired by works of art. Riffing on works by a diversity of artists across mediums, periods, and styles, including Alice Neel, Jean-Michel Basquiat, Julie Mehretu, Sheila Hicks, Willem de Kooning, Georgia O’Keeffe, Frank Stella, Salman Toor, Pierre-Auguste Renoir, and Kerry James Marshall, among others, Taylor inspires readers to interpret the palettes, compositions, brushstrokes, and mood of the art in flowers, and shares florists’ trade secrets for building beautiful arrangements. Through this meditative practice of looking intently at art and nature, readers learn, in the words of David Hockney, ‘to really look,’ and to really see the world.

Basquiat x Warhol
- Published to accompany an exhibition at Fondation Louis Vuitton from 5 April to 28 August 2023
- The collaboration between the two artists, legends of the New York avant-garde, through more than a hundred of their joint works
In the spring of 2023, Fondation Louis Vuitton will be holding Basquiat x Warhol... Painting 4 hands, the most important exhibition ever devoted to the collaborative work of these two artists. The exhibition will feature more than 100 jointly signed paintings, in addition to individual works by Basquiat and Warhol, and works by other major artists (Keith Haring, Jenny Holzer, Kenny Scharf, etc.) in order to recreate the New York downtown art scene of the 1980s.
From 1984 to 1985, Jean-Michel Basquiat (1960–1988) and Andy Warhol (1928–1987) jointly produced about 160 paintings, some of the largest in their respective careers. A genuine artistic dialogue of style and form had developed between them that dealt equally well with crucial issues such as the integration of the African-American community into the narrative of North America, a continent where Warhol was a major manufacturer of icons.

Born Survivors
The Sunday Times bestseller now updated with a new foreword
Among millions of Holocaust victims sent to Auschwitz II-Birkenau in 1944, Priska, Rachel, and Anka each passed through its infamous gates with a secret. Strangers to each other, they were newly pregnant, and facing an uncertain fate without their husbands. Alone, scared, and with so many loved ones already lost to the Nazis, these young women were privately determined to hold on to all they had left: their lives, and those of their unborn babies.
That the gas chambers ran out of Zyklon-B just after the babies were born, before they and their mothers could be exterminated, is just one of several miracles that allowed them all to survive and rebuild their lives after World War II. Born Survivors follows the mothers' incredible journey - first to Auschwitz, where they each came under the murderous scrutiny of Dr. Josef Mengele; then to a German slave labour camp where, half-starved and almost worked to death, they struggled to conceal their condition; and finally, as the Allies closed in, their hellish 17-day train journey with thousands of other prisoners to the Mauthausen death camp in Austria. Hundreds died along the way but the courage and kindness of strangers, including guards and civilians, helped save these women and their children.
Sixty-five years later, the three 'miracle babies' met for the first time at Mauthausen for the anniversary of the liberation that ultimately saved them. United by their remarkable experiences of survival against all odds, they now consider each other "siblings of the heart." In Born Survivors, Wendy Holden brings all three stories together for the first time to mark their seventieth birthdays and the seventieth anniversary of the ending of the war.
A heart-stopping account of how three mothers and their newborns fought to survive the Holocaust, Born Survivors is also a life-affirming celebration of our capacity to care and to love amid inconceivable cruelty.
Jean-Michel Basquiat: King Pleasure (c)
This landmark volume tells the story of Jean-Michel Basquiat from the intimate perspective of his family, intertwining his artistic endeavors with his personal life, influences, and the times in which he lived, and features for the first time work from the Estate’s largely unseen and significant collection of paintings, drawings, sketches, and ephemera.
Organized by the family of Basquiat, the exhibition and accompanying catalogue feature over 200 never before and rarely seen paintings, drawings, ephemera, and artifacts. The artist’s contributions to the history of art and his exploration into our multi-faceted culture—incorporating music, the Black experience, pop culture, African American sports figures, literature, and other sources—are showcased alongside personal reminiscences and firsthand accounts providing unique insight into Basquiat’s creative life and his singular voice that propelled the social and cultural narrative that continues to this day.
Structured around key periods in his life, from his childhood and formative years, his meteoric rise in the art world and beyond, to his untimely death, the book features in-depth interviews with his surviving family members.

Vincent van Gogh: Matters of Identity
The revelation of a misidentified face in a photograph-once thought to be Vincent, now known to be Theo van Gogh-leads to a novelesque story of revised art history
Full of surprising anecdotes, this book tells the story of the discovery in 2018 that one of only two known photographs of Vincent van Gogh (1853-1890) is, in fact, of his brother, Theo. The detective-style narrative continues from there to Samuel Delsaut, who found two drawings attributed to Van Gogh in 1958. The archives of the Delsaut family revealed details casting doubt on the authenticity of these drawings, along with abundant correspondence between Samuel's son and the son of Dr. Paul Gachet, who cared for Van Gogh in Auvers-sur-Oise. A real-life lesson in historical criticism, this book, beautifully illustrated with reproductions of Van Gogh's work, has resonance with our contemporary predicament distinguishing information from rumor, journalism from propaganda.

Balzac und Die Kleine Chinesiche
Die witzigste, traurigste, schönste Liebesgeschichte des Jahres - der so gefeierte Roman aus Frankreich erzählt von zwei pfiffigen chinesischen Studenten, die es in ein gottverlassenes Bergdorf verschlagen hat. Ein Koffer voll westlicher Weltliteratur und eine entzückende Schneiderin retten ihnen das Leben. Sie hat einen dicken schwarzen Zopf, zwei hinreißende Schühchen aus rosafarbener Seide und das zauberhafteste Lächeln, das man sich vorstellen kann: die Kleine Schneiderin aus dem abgelegenen Bergdorf, in die sich der junge Luo gleich beim ersten Anblick verliebt. Er und sein Freund, zwei Studenten, die zur kulturellen Umerziehung hierher ans Ende der Welt verschickt wurden, merken bald, daß sie nur eine einzige Möglichkeit haben, ihre Haut zu retten: Sie müssen in den Besitz jenes wunderbaren Lederkoffers gelangen, der die verbotenen Meisterwerke der westlichen Weltliteratur enthält. Denn nur aus Balzac und Stendhal, aus Dostojewski und Dumas können sie die Lebensenergie und den Esprit schöpfen, die sie brauchen, um den Widrigkeiten ihres Daseins und der Willkür des Dorfältesten Paroli zu bieten. Und vielleicht können sie am Ende sogar das Herz der Schneiderin gewinnen.

Česká gramatika v kostce
Čtyřstránková příručka o něco většího formátu než A4, tištěná na oboustranně laminované křídě. Představuje jednoduchý přehled nejdůležitějších gramatických jevů, který je vždy po ruce. Příručka je určena začátečníkům a středně pokročilým studentům češtiny jako cizího jazyka, k občasnému nahlédnutí ji však využijí i pokročilí mluvčí. Slouží k rychlé orientaci a pomáhá ubránit se frustraci z české flexe. Na rozdíl od podobných existujících brožurek, které vycházejí z tradiční české gramatiky pro Čechy a seznamují tak cizince se zákoutími typu předseda či nůše, se snaží vidět český jazyk očima cizince a postihnout ty jevy, které cizojazyčný mluvčí vnímá a potřebuje. Pro zachycení funkce rodu v systému jazyka a tabulku deklinace používá populární barevné kódování (Ma, Mi, F, N), – uvádí zjednodušené vzory konjugace (-Á slovesa, -Í slovesa, dva typy -E sloves), přináší nové řazení pádů, které upozorňuje studenty na podobnosti jednotlivých pádů (akuz. sg. a gen. sg, loc. sg. -dat. sg.) a zachycuje druhou pozici nepřízvučných slov ve větě, která je klíčová pro porozumění.
