Jej charakteristické vokály v kombinácii so zložito vytvorenými textami sa ponoria do vrcholov a pádov života, lásky a vzťahov s neochvejnou úprimnosťou a introspekciou, vďaka čomu je tento album Jennifer Lopez doteraz najúprimnejší a najosobnejší.

This Cant Be Happening
In twenty short books, Penguin brings you the classics of the environmental movement.
In the galvanising speeches and essays brought together in This Can't Be Happening, George Monbiot calls on humanity to stop averting its gaze from the destruction of the living planet, and wake up to the greatest predicament we have ever faced.
Over the past 75 years, a new canon has emerged. As life on Earth has become irrevocably altered by humans, visionary thinkers around the world have raised their voices to defend the planet, and affirm our place at the heart of its restoration. Their words have endured through the decades, becoming the classics of a movement. Together, these books show the richness of environmental thought, and point the way to a fairer, saner, greener world.

Paramore - This Is Why CD
KDO: Americká rocková kapela vznikla v městečku Frankliv ve státě Tennessee v roce 2004. Ústřední postavou je zpěvačka Hayley Williams. Paramore debutovali v roce 2005, komerčně se prosadili už o dva roky později s druhým albem Riot, které jim zároveň vyneslo i první nominaci na Grammy. Vítězství v prestižní anketě se kapela dočkala v roce 2010, kdy vydala úspěšné eponymní album, s nímž se dostala na vrchol hitparády v Americe i Velké Británii. Skupina prošla několika personálními otřesy.
CO: Loni album This Is Why předznamenal stejnojmenný singl. Píseň, ve které se zpěvačka Hayley Williams vyrovnává s výzvami, jimž čelí jako frontmanka světoznámé skupiny, mimo jiné stálým tlakem veřejnosti lačnící po detailech z jejího soukromí, znamenal konec čtyřleté pauzy, kterou si trojice udělala po konci turné k desce After Laughter. Na šesté desce se soubor vrací ke kytarovějšímu zvuku a jistě není bez zajímavosti, že je to vůbec poprvé, co Paramore natočili nové album ve stejné sestavě, v jaké dělali to předchozí. This Is Why je k dispozici na CD a LP.

Haló, this is Jamaica! 2. diel South Coast
Na Jamajke dnes koexistujú dva svety – svet turistov, ktorí básnia o svojich luxusných, pri plážach ležiacich, umelo vytvorených rezerváciách „All Inclusive“, a svet ostatných obyvateľov ostrova, ktorí žijú za hranicami týchto turistických pseudosvetov.
Ja som chcela spoznať ten druhý. Málokto napísal, ako to v takej jamajskej domácnosti vyzerá, aký rytmus tu má bežný deň. Dôvod vidím v tom, že väčšina insitných cestovateľov, ktorí o svojich zážitkoch na Jamajke písali, bývala buď v hoteloch, alebo im bolo poskytnuté prístrešie u európskych prisťahovalcov.
Ani jeden z týchto variantov v mojom prípade neprichádzal do úvahy. Som presvedčená, že človek si vytvorí správny vzťah k cudzej krajine len za predpokladu, že nadviaže bezprostredný kontakt s domorodcami. Keď bude s nimi bývať, jesť, upratovať, variť, pracovať, i zabávať sa.
Že je to príliš odvážne??? Hlúposť! Odvážny je ten, čo si naraz vezme preháňadlo aj prášky na spanie, ale nie romantická duša, čo si zmyslí žiť týždeň v rastafariánskej osade... :-)

Lacná kniha For Kick

Swapping his job as proprietor of an Australian stud farm to work undercover as a stable hand in Yorkshire, Danny soon has his hands full. Whilst the Earl's attractive daughters Patricia and Elinor draw his attention, he finds himself ever more deeply involved with the vicious swindlers he is out to entrap. And if neither the money nor the swindle will keep his mind on the job, maybe the death of the Earl's original investigator, Tommy Stapleton, will...

This Time It's Real
et Ready to fall in LOVE in this hilarious rom-com!
When 16-year-old Eliza Lin’s personal essay about meeting the love of her life goes viral, she gets everything she’s ever wanted: the approval of her new classmates, a rare internship opportunity at her favourite publisher, and a devoted online following who think her relationship is #couplegoals.
The only problem? Eliza made the whole essay up.
In fact, Eliza's never even been in a relationship before, let alone in love. All good writing is lying, right? Desperate to cover up the truth, Eliza makes a deal with her classmate Caz: she’ll help him write his college applications if he poses as her boyfriend. But Caz plays the role of boyfriend a bit too well...
But Eliza's carefully crafted image begins to unravel as the relationship with Caz becomes more and more real. Can she still follow her dreams if it means breaking her own heart?
Perfect for BookTok, and fans of Jenny Han and Crazy Rich Asians.
Laugh-out-loud funny, and full of heart from a brand-new star in YA rom-coms.
