BOOTH
In 1822, a stage is set: Englishman Junius Booth - celebrated Shakespearean actor and man of mesmerising charm and instability - moves to a remote cabin outside Baltimore with his wife, who bears him ten children.
Of the six who survive infancy, one is John Wilkes - the hot-tempered but much-loved middle son who, in 1865, fatally shoots Abraham Lincoln in a Washington theatre, changing the course of history.
What makes a murderer? His family or the world? And how can those who love him ever come to terms with his actions? Strikingly relevant to the world today, Booth is the story of one extraordinary family and the terrible act that shattered their bonds forever.

Carrie Soto Is Back
Carrie Soto is fierce, and her determination to win at any cost has not made her popular.
By the time Carrie retires from tennis, she is the best player the world has ever seen. She has shattered every record and claimed twenty Slam titles. And if you ask her, she is entitled to every one. She sacrificed nearly everything to become the best, with her father as her coach.
But six years after her retirement, Carrie finds herself sitting in the stands of the 1994 US Open, watching her record be taken from her by a brutal, stunning, British player named Nicki Chan.
At thirty-seven years old, Carrie makes the monumental decision to come out of retirement and be coached by her father for one last year in an attempt to reclaim her record. Even if the sports media says that they never liked the 'Battle-Axe' anyway. Even if her body doesn't move as fast as it did. And even if it means swallowing her pride to train with a man she once almost opened her heart to: Bowe Huntley. Like her, he has something to prove before he gives up the game forever.
In spite of it all: Carrie Soto is back, for one epic final season. In this riveting and unforgettable novel, Taylor Jenkins Reid tells a story about the cost of greatness and a legendary athlete attempting a comeback.

Foul Heart Huntsman
The captivating sequel to Foul Lady Fortune, by the New York Times bestselling author of These Violent Delights.
Winter is drawing thick in 1931 Shanghai, as is the ever-nearing threat of invasion.
Rosalind Lang has encountered the worst possible fate for a national spy: she's been exposed. With the media storm camped outside her apartment for the infamous Lady Fortune, she's barely left her bedroom in weeks, plotting her next course of action after Orion was taken and his memories of Rosalind wiped. Though their marriage might have been a sham, his absence hurts her more than any physical wound.
She won't rest until she gets him back.
I can help you get him back. Find me in Zhouzhuang.
-JM.
But with her identity in the open, the task is near impossible. The only way to leave the city and rescue her beloved is the guise of a national tour: convincing her superiors that the countryside needs unity more than ever, and who better than an immortal girl to stir pride and strength into the people?
When the tour goes wrong, however, everything Rosalind once knew is thrown up in the air. Taking refuge outside Shanghai, old ghosts come into the open and adversaries turn to allies.
To save Orion, they must find a cure to his mother's traitorous invention and take this chemical weapon away from impending foreign invasion - but the clock is ticking, and if Rosalind fails, it's not only Orion she loses, but her nation itself.
The Avant-Postman
The Avant-Postman explores a broad range of innovative postwar writing in France, Britain, and the United States. Taking James Joyce’s "revolution of the word" in Ulysses and Finnegans Wake as a joint starting point, David Vichnar draws genealogical lines through the work of more than fifty writers up to the present, including Alain Robbe-Grillet, B. S. Johnson, William Burroughs, Christine Brooke-Rose, Georges Perec, Kathy Acker, Iain Sinclair, Hélene Cixous, Alan Moore, David Foster Wallace, and many others. Centering the exploration around five writing strategies employed by Joyce—narrative parallax, stylistic metempsychosis, concrete writing, forgery, and neologising the logos—the book reveals the striking continuities and developments from Joyce’s day to our own.

Alice Isn't Dead
From the creator of the wildly popular Welcome to Night Vale podcast comes a story about loving, about searching - and about the courage you need when you find the unexpected.
For fans of Stephen King, Serial, Twin Peaks and of course the eponymous number one iTunes podcast itself.
Keisha Lewis mourned the loss of her wife, Alice, who disappeared two years ago. There was a search, there was grief beyond what she thought was possible. There was a funeral.
But then Keisha began to see her wife, again and again, in the background of news reports from all over America.
Alice isn't dead. And she is showing up at the scene of every tragedy in the country.
Keisha shrugs off her old life and hits the road as a trucker - hoping on some level that travelling the length of the country will lead her to the person she loves.
What she finds are buried crimes and monsters (both human and unimaginable), government conspiracies, haunted service stations and a darkness far older than the highway system it lies beneath.
Inspired by the eponymous podcast, Alice Isn't Dead is a story about loving, about searching - and about the courage you need when what you find is terrifyingly unexpected.
Cast in the fluorescent lights of midnight diner-signs, this story is as big as the open road and as intimate as the darkness of a trucker's cab: perfect for fans of Stephen King, Serial, Twin Peaks and American Gods.

Undoing Depression
The bestselling approachable guide that has inspired thousands of readers to manage or overcome depression -- fully revised and updated for life in the 21st century.
Depression rates around the world have skyrocketed in the 20-plus years since Richard O'Connor first published his classic book on living with and overcoming depression. Nearly 40 million American adults suffer from the condition, which affects nearly every aspect of life, from relationships, to job performance, physical health, productivity, and, of course, overall happiness. And in an increasingly stressful and overwhelming world, it's more important than ever to understand the causes and effects of depression, and what we can do to overcome it.
In this fully revised and updated edition -- which includes updated information on the power of mindfulness, the relationship between depression and other diseases, the risks and side effects of medication, depression's effect on thinking, and the benefits of exercise -- Dr. O'Connor explains that, like heart disease and other physical conditions, depression is fueled by complex and interrelated factors: genetic, biochemical, environmental. But Dr. O'Connor focuses on an additional factor that is often overlooked: our own habits. Unwittingly we get good at depression. We learn how to hide it, and how to work around it. We may even achieve great things, but with constant struggle rather than satisfaction. Relying on these methods to make it through each day, we deprive ourselves of true recovery, of deep joy and healthy emotion.
Undoing Depression teaches us how to replace depressive patterns with a new and more effective set of skills. We already know how to "do" depression--and we can learn how to undo it. With a truly holistic approach that synthesizes the best of the many schools of thought about this painful disease, and a critical eye toward medications, O'Connor offers new hope--and new life--for sufferers of depression.

Stardust in their Veins
Immerse yourself in the second book the Castles in their Bones series from the New York Times bestselling author of the Ash Princess series.
Seduction. Conquest. The Crown.
Princesses Daphne, Beatriz, and Sophronia have trained their entire lives for one purpose: to bring down nations. Their mother, Empress Margaraux of Bessemia, is determined to rule the continent of Vesteria, and her daughters are her weapons. Promised for marriage since birth, they are her ticket across enemy lines. And also her decoys.
Still, not even Empress Margaraux can control the stars. Sent to their new kingdoms, orders in hand, the princesses have found their own paths, changing the course of their mother's plans entirely - and tragically. Sophronia chose love, and for that, she lost her life.
Daphne and Beatriz can hardly believe their sister is dead, but both are determined to avenge her. And now, separated by a continent - and their mother's lies - they see more clearly with every passing day that they might not be working toward the same end.
The stars whisper of death, but Daphne and Beatriz are just beginning to understand the true power coursing through their veins. And their mother will do anything to keep them under her thumb - even if it means killing them all.

Tri kroky k prebudeniu
Pravdu sa nemožno naučiť, pravdu je možné iba zažiť
Prebúdzanie sa alebo prebudenie znamená, že sa sen skončil – sen nevedomia, v ktorom sme všetci strávili väčšinu svojho života, často života v napätí, v bolesti, s pocitom nenaplnenia a naháňaním sa za ilúziami, ktoré sú iba náhradami za to, čo skutočne hľadáme. Prebudenie sa zo sna znamená osvietenie.
Táto kniha nás prevedie tromi krokmi na ceste k prebudeniu, ktoré nám pomôžu vymaniť sa z nášho nastavenia, z obmedzení a frustrácií. Tie tri kroky sú sloboda vedomia, jednoduchosť mysle a prázdnota mysle.
Prvá vec, ktorá je potrebná pre oslobodenie mysle a prebudenie inteligencie, je uvedomiť si: žiadna myšlienka nie je moja. V priebehu knihy nás Osho prevedie procesom oslobodenia sa od identifikácie – stotožňovania sa s kýmkoľvek alebo čímkoľvek - a umožní nám uvidieť záblesk toho, aký úžasný môže byť život prebudeného človeka.

Slammed
From #1 Sunday Times bestselling author of It Ends With Us, Colleen Hoover's romantic, emotion-packed debut novel unforgettably captures all the magic and confusion of first love, as two young people forge an unlikely bond before discovering that fate has other plans for them.
Following the unexpected death of her father, eighteen-year-old Layken becomes the rock for both her mother and younger brother. She appears resilient and tenacious, but inside, she's losing hope. Then she meets her new neighbour Will, a handsome twenty-one-year-old whose mere presence leaves her flustered and whose passion for poetry slams thrills her.
Not long after a heart-stopping first date during which each recognizes something profound and familiar in the other, they are slammed to the core when a shocking discovery brings their new relationship to a sudden halt. Daily interactions become impossibly painful as they struggle to find a balance between the feelings that pull them together and the forces that tear them apart. Only through the poetry they share are they able to speak the truth that is in their hearts and imagine a future where love is cause for celebration, not regret.

Mysli a zbohatni (mäkká väzba)
Kniha Mysli a zbohatni je jednou z najpredávanejších kníh všetkých dôb a je
považovaná za absolútny základ všekých teórií, učení, štúdií, statí, publikácií
a kníh na tému úspechu. Vznikala vyše dvadsať rokov, počas ktorých sa jej
autor zhováral, pozoroval a analyzoval správanie a premýšľanie najbohatších
a najúspešnejších mužov tej doby, medzi ktorými boli vynálezcovia Thomas
Edison a Alexander Graham Bell, zakladatelia spoločností George Eastman (Kodak),
Henry Ford (Ford Motor Company), americkí prezidenti Theodore Roosevelt
a William H. Taft, industrialisti a filantropi Andrew Carneg ie a John D. Rockefe ller,
Sr., majiteľ oceliarní Charles M. Schwab, zakladateľ siete obchodných domov
F.W. Woolworth a mnohí ďalší. Napoleon Hill neskôr pôsobil ako poradca
amerických prezidentov Woodrowa Wilsona a Franklina D. Roosevelta.
Napriek tomu, že kniha Mysli a zbohatni bola prvý raz publikovaná v roku
1937, návod, ako sa „preprogramovať“ na úspech a zarobiť toľko peňazí, koľko
si želáte, zhrnutý do trinástich krokov, je aktuálny aj v 21. storočí.

No one seems to understand my motivations.See, I don’t want you.I’ve never wanted you.I want Him.Everyone else is just in the way…
