Why Women Are Blamed For Everything
She asked for it. She was flirting. She was drinking. She was wearing a revealing dress. She was too confident. She walked home alone. She stayed in that relationship. She was naive. She didn't report soon enough. She didn't fight back. She wanted it. She lied about it. She comes from a bad area. She was vulnerable. She should have known. She should have seen it coming. She should have protected herself.
The victim blaming of women is prevalent and normalised in society both in the UK, and around the world.
What is it that causes us to blame women who have been abused, raped, trafficked, assaulted or harassed by men? Why are we uncomfortable with placing all of the blame on the perpetrators for their crimes against women and girls?
Based on three years of doctoral research and ten years of practice with women and girls, Dr Jessica Taylor explores the many reasons we blame women for male violence committed against them. Written in her unique style and backed up by decades of evidence, this book exposes the powerful forces in society and individual psychology which compel us to blame women subjected to male violence.

Pořádný terno
Bylo mi řečeno, že jsem nemálo obdařenej.
A nemyslím jen tím, co mám v kalhotách. Mám taky výkonnej mozek a srdce ze zlata. Svoje dary rád využívám naplno – celou tu dokonalou výbavu. Můj život běží jako na drátkách…
Dokud se neocitnu v koutě, kam mě zahnala jedna sexy spolubydlící, a je z toho pořádně žhavý… peklo.
V tomhle městě se totiž byt hledá ještě hůř než opravdová láska, takže se do jednoho musím nasáčkovat s ukrutně sexy a úžasnou mladší sestrou svýho kámoše. Když musíš, tak musíš.
Zvládnu Josie odolat. Umím se ovládat, soustředit a držet ruce u těla, a to i na těch ubohých pětapadesáti metrech čtverečních, který spolu obýváme. Dokud mi jedný noci nevklouzne pod peřinu. Prý jí to pomůže usnout po tom, co se ten den stalo.
Spoiler – neusneme ani jeden.
Zmínil jsem, že je navíc jednou z mých nejbližších přátel? Že je veselá, krásná a má pod čepicí? Nejsem sám, kdo je tady pořádný terno.
Co si má chlap v takový situaci počít?

Naše vina
Přichází závěrečný díl trilogie Viníci, literárního young adult fenoménu s milióny nadšených čtenářů, který se stal také předlohou pro film.
Jak daleko jsou Nick a Noah ochotni zajít?
Ačkoli oba hlavní hrdinové vyvázli ze stovek problémů bez úhony, jeden z nich je rozdělil možná navždy. Po všem, co spolu prožili, teď vztah Nicka a Noah prochází svým nejhorším obdobím a vypadá to, že už se nic nemůže vrátit do starých kolejí… Budou muset prožít mnohé, aby konečně pochopili, zda jsou si opravdu souzeni, nebo zda je pro ně naopak vhodné jedině odloučení. Teď už lze jen čekat, jestli to, co se říká o čase, který hojí rány, je pravda, nebo jen další prázdná fráze.
Je však možné zapomenout na tak velkou lásku? Jak lze vymazat vzpomínky vytetované v srdci? Láska vždy pro funkční vztah nestačí a ani odpuštění někdy nedokáže některé věci mezi dvěma lidmi napravit.
Podaří se hlavním hrdinům hodit minulost za hlavu a začít znovu?

Šibalská Sophy
Keď úctyhodný sir Horace Stanton-Lacy odíde na pracovnú cestu do Južnej Ameriky, nechá svoju jedinú dcéru Sophy u sestry Elizabeth Rivenhallovej, ktorá býva s rodinou na Berkeley Square. Lady Ombersleyová naveľa súhlasí, že sa ujme mladej netere, no ani jej nenapadne, že veselá, impulzívna a nevšedná dievčina vtrhne do londýnskej spoločnosti ako víchor a načisto rozmetá všetky konvencie a tradície. Sophy veru nie je spôsobná mladá dáma, akú Rivenhallovci očakávali, keď sa jej ujali. Dobrosrdečná teta Lizzie je ohromená a Sophin arogantný a prísny bratanec Charles Rivenhall sa rozhodne nájsť jej čím skôr manžela, aby rodinu nadobro zbavil tohto všetečného trápenia.
Hoci pre neskrotnú Sophy je pobyt u príbuzných doteraz najťažšou skúškou, zistí, že jej rodina prežíva krušné časy a zúfalo potrebuje jej talent dať všetko do poriadku. Svojou neúnavnosťou a nezvyčajnými metódami doslova ovládne domácnosť. No získa si aj srdce muža, ktorý by sa jej najradšej zbavil?

Spišský hrad a okolie (História, povesti a legendy)
Kniha Spišský hrad - história, povesti a legendy, ktorú napísal dobrý znalec histórie tohto kraja, rozpráva o najkrajšom kúte Spiša, teda o jeho centrálnom hrade, meste Spišskom Podhradí, Spišskej Kapitule, Žehre a lokalite Dreveník, ktoré všetky ako jeden celok boli zapísané do kultúrneho dedičstva medzinárodnej organizácie Unesco.
Nezabúda však ani na slávne šľachtcké rody, čo tu stáročia pôsobili - Zápoľskí, Thurzovci, Csákyovci či okolie, napr. na jaskyňu Daiblova diera či miestne minerálne pramene. Jej netradičná kompozícia, teda spojenie reálnych historických udalostí s miestnymi povesťami a legendami podáva na pozadí prísne etymologického rozboru miestnych názvov netradičný a v niektorých smeroch aj objavný pohľad na už desaťročia rovnako podávané dejiny tohto vzácneho kúta Slovenska.
White Nights
Introducing Little Clothbound Classics: irresistible, mini editions of short stories, novellas and essays from the world's greatest writers, designed by the award-winning Coralie Bickford-Smith.
Celebrating the range and diversity of Penguin Classics, they take us from snowy Japan to springtime Vienna, from haunted New England to a sun-drenched Mediterranean island, and from a game of chess on the ocean to a love story on the moon. Beautifully designed and printed, these collectible editions are bound in colourful, tactile cloth and stamped with foil.
Regarded as one of world literature's foremost novelists, Fyodor Dostoevsky's short stories are also some of the best ever written. 'White Nights' tells of love and loss on the streets of St. Petersburg, 'A Nasty Business' presents the hilarious tale of a general dropping in on the wedding of a subordinate, while 'The Meek One' is an existentialist tale of marriage and tragedy.
Landslide
'We won. Won in a landslide. This was a landslide.'
President Donald J. Trump, 6 January 2021
Politics has given us some shocking and confounding moments but none have come close to the careening final days of Donald Trump's presidency: the surreal stage management of his re-election campaign, his audacious election challenge, the harrowing mayhem of the storming of the Capitol and the buffoonery of the second impeachment trial. But what was really going on in the inner sanctum of the White House during these calamitous events? What did the president and his dwindling cadre of loyalists actually believe? And what were they planning?
Drawing on an exclusive and wide range of sources who took part in or witnessed Trump's closing moments, Michael Wolff finds the Oval Office more chaotic and bizarre than ever before, a kind of Star Wars bar scene. At all times of the day, Trump, hunched behind the Resolute desk, is surrounded by schemers and unqualified sycophants who spoon-feed him the 'alternative facts' he hungers to hear - about COVID-19, Black Lives Matter protests, and, most of all, his chance of winning re-election.
In this extraordinary telling of a unique moment in history, Wolff gives us front row seats as Trump's circle of plotters whittles down to the most enabling and the least qualified - and the president overreaches the bounds of democracy, entertaining the idea of martial law and balking at calling off the insurrectionist mob that threatens the hallowed seat of democracy itself.
Michael Wolff pulled back the curtain on the Trump presidency with his globally bestselling blockbuster Fire and Fury. Now, in Landslide, he closes the door on the presidency with a final, astonishingly candid tale.

If We Were Villains - Illustrated Edition: The sensational TikTok Book Club pick
A gorgeous illustrated edition of the bestselling dark academia thriller where tragedy strikes at an elite Shakespeare conservatory - complete with a brand-new cover, original illustrations and deluxe finishes.
Oliver Marks has just served ten years for the murder of one of his closest friends - a murder he may or may not have committed. On the day he's released, he's greeted by the detective who put him in prison. Detective Colborne is retiring, but before he does, he wants to know what really happened ten years ago.
As a young actor studying Shakespeare at an elite arts conservatory, Oliver noticed that his talented classmates seem to play the same roles onstage and off - villain, hero, tyrant, temptress - though Oliver felt doomed to always be a secondary character in someone else's story. But when the teachers change up the casting, a good-natured rivalry turns ugly, and the plays spill dangerously over into life.
When tragedy strikes, one of the seven friends is found dead. The rest face their greatest acting challenge yet: convincing the police, and themselves, that they are blameless.
Lacná kniha Imaginary Girlfriend: A Memoir (-90%)
From a novelist known for the complexity of his novels - they are also long - comes an autobiography of compelling simplicity; it is also short. Dedicated to the memory of two wrestling coaches and two writer friends, The Imaginary Girlfriend" is a lucid portrait of the writers and wrestlers who played a mentor role in John Irving's development as a novelist, a wrestler and a wrestling coach. Moreover, this candid memoir portrays a father's dedication to his children: Irving coached his sons Colin and Brendan to New England championship titles - a championship that, as a competitor, he himself was denied. John Irving began writing and wrestling when he was fourteen. He competed as a wrestler for twenty years, he was certified as a referee for twenty-four and he coached the sport until he was forty-seven. His thirty-three years in wrestling are three times those he spent as a student and a teacher of Creative Writing; yet his concise autobiography details the interrelationship of the disciplines of writing and wrestling - from the days when Irving was a beginner at both pursuits until his fourth wrestling-related surgery at the age of fifty-three. "The Imaginary Girlfriend" is both a work of the utmost literary accomplishment and a paradigm for living."
