Lainey okos, vagány lány. Csak az a gáz, hogy jelenleg nincs állása. De egy apró turpisság (na jó, nem annyira apró) hozzásegíti az álommelóhoz.

Ugye hogy megérte az a kis hazugság egy ilyen szuper munkáért?
Aztán felbukkan Seth, az idős sztár szexis, vonzó unokája, aki elképesztően jó hapsi. És ahogy kell, Lainey és Seth közt működésbe lép a kémia. De mit szólna a férfi, ha tudná, hogy Lainey hazudott?
Persze nem Lainey az egyetlen, akinek titkai vannak. Ebben a villában mindenki rejteget valamit...

The Mask of Mirrors
'Utterly captivating. Carrick spins an exciting web of mystery, magic, and political treachery in a richly drawn and innovative world.' S. A. Chakraborty, author of The City of Brass
Darkly magical and beautifully imagined, The Mask of Mirrors is the unmissable start to the Rook & Rose trilogy, a rich and dazzling fantasy adventure in which a con artist, a vigilante, and a crime lord must unite to save their city.
Nightmares are creeping through the city of dreams . . .
Renata Virdaux is a con artist who has come to the sparkling city of Nadezra -- the city of dreams -- with one goal: to trick her way into a noble house and secure her fortune and her sister's future.
But as she's drawn into the aristocratic world of House Traementis, she realises her masquerade is just one of many surrounding her. And as corrupted magic begins to weave its way through Nadezra, the poisonous feuds of its aristocrats and the shadowy dangers of its impoverished underbelly become tangled -- with Ren at their heart.
'Wonderfully immersive--I was unable to put it down.' Andrea Stewart, author of The Bone Shard Daughter
'An intricate, compelling dream of a book' Melissa Caruso, author of The Tethered Mage
'I was utterly entranced by this glittering world filled with masked vigilantes, cunning conwomen, and dark magic. A sheer delight!' Katy Rose Pool, author of There Will Come A Darkness

A History of the World (in Dingbats)
The phenomenally creative musician and filmmaker David Byrne presents new artwork that explores daily life in surprising ways, with unique reflections on shared human experiences - a book for our time from a highly influential artist
Through striking and humorous figurative drawings, the iconic artist and musician David Byrne depicts daily life in intriguing ways. His illustrations, created while under quarantine, expand on the dingbat, a typographic ornament used to illuminate or break up blocks of text, to explore the nuances of life under lockdown and evoke the complex, global systems the pandemic cast in bright light. Edited and designed by Alex Kalman in close collaboration with Byrne, this unique book reflects on shared experiences and presents history as a story that is continually undergoing revision.

Quentin Blake - A Year of Drawings
'In recent years I have found myself working increasingly in sequences of drawings which explore subjects and techniques which interest me. These sequences vary in approach and tone, and between reality and fantasy. But I hope that in each of them in its own way will appeal to anyone who like looking at drawings.' Quentin Blake 2019
Quentin Blake, like many illustrators, works essentially in isolation. In normal times he would make two daily trips to his office across the square from where he lives to see what business there was for him to deal with. But during the lockdowns he had no such distractions and demands made of his time. There was still some commissioned works; he finished two books and he did some work for charities raising funds to deal with the lockdowns. But Quentin had a lot more time to explore his visual interests and go wherever his imagination took him.
Some of these series were drawn at 6.00 am while he was still in bed. The medium he used for each series was partly decided by whatever was to hand; pencil, biro or Sennelier oil pastels. Similarly, the size, colour and quality of the paper would be decided by what was available.
This book is an edited selection of over 3,000 drawings Quentin produced from March 2020 to February 2021; a portfolio of new personal work, not commissioned and not meant for publication. They provide a unique insight into what happens when a great artist is left to his own devices.

Perfect Leader! Passion Wins
This is what this book brings you: You support certified climate protection projects, quickly receive compact information and checklists from experts (overview and press comments in the book preview) as well as advice that has been tested in practice, which also leads to success step by step thanks to AddOn. Because what does the Perfect Leader of the future look like in a world in which the understanding of leadership is just changing fundamentally? More agile, more flexible, fewer hierarchies. But what it really comes down to is passion. If you inspire and excite your employees as a boss, you can forget about all the hard-won motivation tools. Another important aspect is diversity in mixed leadership teams. Excellent personnel management and development also has a lot to do with psychology. The boss acts as something between a rule giver, an organizer and an animator, always listening to his or her employees but also guiding them. And this balancing act simply succeeds better when the mixed duo at the top of management covers completely different positions, attitudes and competencies. Only equipped with these skills is the leadership also perfectly positioned for a future in which they must react flexibly to changes and crisis situations at all times. But only in this way can productive, fruitful leadership emerge at all. This book shows what matters. Good luck and have fun reading. We give you the best possible help on the topics of career, finance, management, personnel work and life assistance. For this purpose, we gather in each book the best experts in their field as authors - detailed biographies in the book - , who give a comprehensive overview of the topic and additionally offer you success planner workbooks in printed form.

The Reinvention of Humanity
The riveting story of the pioneers who redefined conceptions of 'normality' in the early twentieth century. Under the guiding eye of cultural anthropologist Franz Boas, these scientist-explorers - most of them women - made intrepid journeys into far-flung communities all over the world, where they documented radically different social approaches that overturned Western assumptions about human diversity andchallenged the era's scientific consensus. Here, the boundary-breaking lives and achievements of Margaret Mead, Ruth Benedict, Ella Deloria and Zora Neale Hurston are brought fully into light for the first time, showing how their trailblazing discoveries helped shape the moral universe we inhabit today.
