Heres To Us
In the follow-up to their charming NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER, What If It's Us, best friends Adam Silvera (They Both Die At The End) and Becky Albertalli (Simon vs. The Homo Sapiens Agenda) reunite to give Arthur and Ben another shot at true love.
From the creator of 13 Reasons Why, What If It's Us is soon to be a feature film!
Ben has spent his first year of college working on his fantasy manuscript with his writing partner Mario, who is a great Spanish tutor, and an even better kisser. So why can't he stop thinking about the fact that Arthur's back in town two years after they called it quits?
Arthur is in New York for a dream internship on Broadway, with a boyfriend back at home that he couldn't be happier with. But when he comes upon Ben cuddled up with a mystery boy, he starts to wonder if his feelings for Ben ever truly went away.
Even as the boys try to focus on their futures, they can't seem to help running into each other in the present. Is the universe forcing them to question if they're actually meant to be?
Possibly not. After all, things didn't work the first time around.
Possibly yes. After all, the sparks are still flying.
Sometimes you just have to take a leap of faith and raise a glass.
Here's to celebrating old friends!
Here's to embracing new beginnings!
Here's to believing in second chances!
Ill give you the sun
From the author of The Sky Is Everywhere, a radiant novel that will leave you laughing and crying - all at once. For fans of John Green, Gayle Forman and Lauren Oliver. Jude and her twin Noah were incredibly close - until a tragedy drove them apart, and now they are barely speaking. Then Jude meets a cocky, broken, beautiful boy as well as a captivating new mentor, both of whom may just need her as much as she needs them. What the twins don't realize is that each of them has only half the story and if they can just find their way back to one another, they have a chance to remake their world.
Lady Chatterley's Lover
Lady Chatterley's Lover is a novel by D. H. Lawrence written in 1928.Printed privately in Florence in 1928, it was not printed in the United Kingdom until 1960 (other than in an underground edition issued by Inky Stephensen's Mandrake Press in 1929). Lawrence considered calling this book Tenderness at one time and made significant alterations to the original manuscript in order to make it palatable to readers. It has been published in three different versions.The publication of the book caused a scandal due to its explicit sex scenes, including previously banned four-letter words, and perhaps because the lovers were a working-class male and an aristocratic female.The story is said to have originated from events in Lawrence's own unhappy domestic life, and he took inspiration for the settings of the book from Ilkeston in Derbyshire where he lived for a while. According to some critics the fling of Lady Ottoline Morrell with "Tiger", a young stonemason who came to carve plinths for her garden statues, also influenced the story.

Vek človeka: Ako sme stvorili antropocén
Priama kniha plná nádeje
Kniha skúma ľudstvo v antropocéne, novej geologickej epoche, ktorá predstavuje začiatok našej dominancie nad Zemou ako životne dôležitým zdrojom. Vďaka prirodzenej hojnosti životného prostredia ľudská spoločnosť síce prekvitá, lenže za cenu hromadenia rádioaktívnych, atmosférických a geologických vplyvov, ktoré zasahujú hlboko do vnútornej rovnováhy planéty a vyžadujú zmenu nášho spôsobu života.
Antropológ Gísli Pálsson mapuje dramatickú krajinu klimatickej zmeny prostredníctvom podmanivého textu a silných fotografií, ktoré dokumentujú náš vplyv na základy sveta. Pútavá a poučná grafika ilustruje ohromujúce zmeny spôsobené ľudskou civilizáciou, zatiaľ čo osobné postrehy, ako je rozprávanie o účasti na pohrebe ľadovca, dávajú ostro vyniknúť stavu našej planéty. Kniha je priama, ale aj plná nádeje. Odhaľuje krízu, do ktorej sme priviedli náš domov, či stratené putá medzi ľudstvom a krajinou, no aj spôsoby, ako sa v tomto novom svete pohnúť dopredu.
Z anglického originálu The Human Age: How we created the Anthropocene epoch and caused the climate preložila Mariana Hyžná.
Star Wars: The Fallen Star (The High Republic)
In this gripping sequel to Star Wars: The Rising Storm, the light of the Jedi faces its darkest hour.
Time and again, the vicious raiders known as the Nihil have sought to bring the golden age of the High Republic to a fiery end. Time and again, the High Republic has emerged battered and weary, but victorious thank to its Jedi protectors-and there is no monument to their cause grander than the Starlight Beacon.
Hanging like a jewel in the Outer Rim, the Beacon embodies the High Republic at the apex of its aspirations: a hub of culture and knowledge, a bright torch against the darkness of the unknown, and an extended hand of welcome to the furthest reaches of the galaxy. As survivors and refugees flee the Nihil's attacks, the Beacon and its crew stand ready to shelter and heal.
The grateful Knights and Padawans of the Jedi Order stationed there finally have a chance to recover-from the pain of their injuries and the grief of their losses. But the storm they thought had passed still rages; they are simply caught in its eye. Marchion Ro, the true mastermind of the Nihil, is preparing his most daring attack yet-one designed to snuff out the light of the Jedi.

Totožnosť
Jean-Marc zanechal štúdium medicíny a zmysel svojho života vidí vo vzťahu s Chantal, staršou a skúsenejšou ženou. Snaží sa zahnať jej obavy zo starnutia a aby jej dokázal, že je stále príťažlivá, posiela jej anonymné listy s vyznaniami.
Chce jej dokázať, že je stále príťažlivá. Táto nevinná stratégia však bude mať neočakávané následky. Typicky „kunderovská“ zápletka je postavená na spochybnení lásky a dôvery, ktoré sú vo svete neistoty pre partnerov istotou.
Čo sa však stane, ak sa rovnováha poruší? Prečo je naša jedinečnosť vo vzťahoch taká podstatná? Ako ju zachovať v dobe, kedy na nás zo všetkých strán útočia nerealistické predstavy o kráse, láske a erotike?
Román Totožnosť ponúka zamyslenie o našom mieste na Zemi, poznaní samého seba, o smrteľnosti, vernosti, o láske. O starnutí každého z nás, ale aj o starnutí modernej európskej kultúry ako celku.

Toto šarmantné mesto je hlavným mestom Slovenskej Republiky. Leží medzi riekou Dunaj (ľudia ho volajú aj „Krásavica na Dunaji“) a úpätím Malých Karpát.

Facing The Mountain
From the #1 New York Times bestselling author of The Boys in the Boat comes the gripping untold story of one of the most heroic units that fought in World War II
On December 7th 1941, the Japanese Navy bombed Pearl Harbor. For many Americans, the surprise attack was a call to arms - but for the soldier sons of Japanese-American immigrant parents, it brought prejudice and scrutiny over where their loyalties lay.
In Facing the Mountain, Daniel James Brown tells the unforgettable story of the 442nd Regimental Combat Team, the Japanese-American heroes who displayed incredible courage on the brutal battlefields of Europe. Achieving the impossible in often near-suicidal missions, including rescuing a 'lost battalion' surrounded by Nazis in the French mountains, the 442nd went on to become one of the most decorated units in history. Yet at the same time, their parents were put in camps and stripped of their livelihoods, and an equally brave battle was being fought in the courtroom back home.
A cinematic tour de force, Facing the Mountain puts a real-life band of brothers in the history books where they belong and reminds us that victory is rarely as simple as we think.
