Lost & Found
Eighteen months before Kathryn Schulz's beloved father died, she met the woman she would marry. In Lost & Found, she weaves the stories of those relationships into a brilliant exploration of how all our lives are shaped by loss and discovery - from the maddening disappearance of everyday objects to the sweeping devastations of war, pandemic, and natural disaster; from finding new planets to falling in love.
Three very different American families form the heart of Lost & Found: the one that made Schulz's father, a charming, brilliant, absentminded Jewish refugee; the one that made her partner, an equally brilliant farmer's daughter and devout Christian; and the one she herself makes through marriage. But Schulz is also attentive to other, more universal kinds of conjunction: how private happiness can coexist with global catastrophe, how we get irritated with those we adore, how love and loss are themselves unavoidably inseparable. The resulting book is part memoir, part guidebook to living in a world that is simultaneously full of wonder and joy and wretchedness and suffering - a world that always demands both our gratitude and our grief.
A staff writer at the New Yorker and winner of the Pulitzer Prize, Kathryn Schulz writes with curiosity, tenderness, erudition, and wit about our finite yet infinitely complicated lives. Crafted with the emotional clarity of C. S. Lewis and the intellectual force of Susan Sontag, Lost & Found is an uncommon book about common experiences.

Realm Breaker
SAVE THE WORLD OR END IT...
A strange darkness is growing in the Ward. Even Corayne an-Amarat can feel it, tucked away in her small town at the edge of the sea.
Fate knocks on her door, in the form of a mythical immortal and a lethal assassin, who tell Corayne that she is the last of an ancient lineage - with the power to save the world from destruction.
Because a man who would burn kingdoms to the ground is raising an army unlike any seen before, bent on uprooting the foundations of the world. With poison in his heart and a stolen sword in his hand, he'll break the realm itself to claim it. And only Corayne can stop him.
Alongside an unlikely group of reluctant allies, Corayne finds herself on a desperate journey to complete an impossible task, with untold magic singing in her blood and the fate of the world on her shoulders.
Inflamed
Our bodies, societies and planet are inflamed. In this boldly original book, renowned political economist Raj Patel teams up with physician Rupa Marya to illuminate the hidden relationships between human health and the profound injustices of our political and economic systems. In doing so, they offer a radical new cure: the deep medicine of decolonization.
Journeying through the human body - our digestive, endocrine, circulatory, respiratory, reproductive, immune, and nervous systems - Marya and Patel show how inflammation is connected not just to the food that we eat, the air that we breathe and access to healthcare, but is also linked to the traumatic events we experience and the very model of health that doctors practice: one which takes things apart, rather than seeking to bring ideas and lived experiences together.
Combining the latest scholarship on globalization and biology with the stories of patients in marginalized communities and the wisdom of Indigenous groups, Inflamed points the way toward a medicine that heals what has been divided and has the potential to transform not only our bodies but the world.

Semmi nem áll az éjszaka útjába
A No és én című regénye folytán Magyarországon is jól ismert francia írónő ezúttal egy rendkívül személyes, érzékeny és őszinte szöveget nyújt az olvasónak: édesanyja öngyilkossága után zsigeri késztetést érez arra, hogy elmesélje a történetét, hogy választ keressen arra, miért alakult olyan fájdalmasan az élete, mitől vált mániás depresszióssá.
Lucile-t a saját nézőpontjából, a túl gyorsan felnőni kényszerült gyermek szemével láttatja, megpróbálva megragadni azt a rejtélyt, amit az anyja jelentett a számára - aki mindig egyszerre volt oly közeli és oly távoli.
Ezt az önmagára kirótt feladatot olykor elviselhetetlenül nehéznek érzi, mégis hajtja az írás kényszere, egyre mélyebbre és mélyebbre merül a családi emlékezetben, ahol a sugárzóan fényes emlékek mellett (mögött) eltemetett titkok lappanganak.
A számos irodalmi díjban részesült regény egy szép, szemérmes és súlyos írás az emberi természet összetettségéről, a családi kapcsolatok bonyolultságáról, a csönd pusztató erejéről.

To Please The Billionaire
The Annie Hill was never appreciated by boys. She was hard working, self-reliant and didn’t need a man. But lonely and venerable one night, she is approached by Jarvis. His wealthy employer wants to hire her as a dinner companion in exchange for a penthouse, a salary and a 5 figure wardrobe stipend. It’s an opportunity Annie can’t pass. But when Annie’s handsome, powerful benefactor offers her everything she could ever desire in exchange for her acceptance of a mysteriously gift, Annie finds herself in a secret world of unimaginable sexual pleasures, that changes her life forever. Serving the Billionaire:Rachel’s heart stopped when he entered the restaurant. He was rugged and sexy. His smile lit the room, but the darkness in his eyes hinted to more. Drawn her into his sports car, he sped her away to a world of luxury and privilege leaving all of her troubles behind. Rachel breathed in his passion like a drug. To leave him was like death; but to be with him was to dance with the demons. As He Desires:Rebecca Prichard wasn’t looking for love. She wasn’t looking for a good time. What she wanted more than anything was a job. But nearly broken by her difficulties, she made a deal with herself; at her friend’s wedding, she would become someone else. It was her uninhibited alter ego that first saw HIM. His sensual green eyes and the dark mystery that surrounded him tore open a crack in her. Craving his touch like a drug, she followed him into his limousine. And entering a world of dangerous sex, wealth and privilege, Rebecca’s life would change forever. Rescued by the Billionaire:Raven knows two things for sure: She stands in the dark, naked and bound by the wrists; and there is a powerful naked man with her seducing her mind as much as her body. Needing to know how she got there, Raven relives her life and death journey as a mysterious man from her past rescued her from a car crash off of a mountain cliff during the worst snow storm in 100 years. Unsure of who is now seducing her will, she must piece together her journey there in order to discover who she should run towards and who she must escape.

When she lowered her magazine, there he was. He was tantalizingly mysterious and his devilish charm was inescapable. He would have been perfect except for the way he picked up on the things that a beautiful, small town girl tried to hide. But the heat between two gorgeous strangers is hard to ignore. In this moment, the secrets they both had didn’t have to matter. And staring into his sultry eyes for the first time, she could not have guessed how her life would change next.

White Fox
1963. In a desolate Russian penal colony, the radio blares the news of the assassination of President John F. Kennedy...
Lieutenant Colonel Alexander Vasin's new post as director of a gulag camp in the middle of a frozen tundra is far from a promotion. This is where disgraced agents, like Vasin, are disappeared - sent to die forgotten. And quietly. But tensions in the camp are running high and when a violent revolt breaks out, Vasin finds himself on the run. With him is a mysterious prisoner - who holds the key to the most dangerous secret in the world: who ordered Kennedy's murder.
In a breathless race that takes them through the Soviet Union - from the barren Siberian wastelands to the stunning halls of the Catherine Palace, and into the gritty streets of Leningrad and Moscow - Vasin must stay one step ahead of the deadliest spy and police organizations in the world . . . and keep the most wanted man in Russia alive. The journey will push Vasin's loyalty, morality and his patriotism to the limit. And he must confront the ultimate choice: fall in line, or die fighting the system.
With masterful storytelling that weaves together a explosive moment in history with the cutthroat machinations of Soviet politics, Owen Matthews' White Fox captures the paradigm-shifting assassination from a unique Soviet point of view. This is a page-turning thriller across Russia, where characters facing impossible odds are forced to decide between truth, justice and all-out war.

Príbeh outsiderky, či desperátky Jolany Kohútovej, bývalej účastníčky povstania, sa odohráva na slovenskom vidieku v časoch kolektivizácie a je postavený na žánrovom pôdoryse klasického westernu: hlavný hrdina sa ocitá v nepriateľskom prostredí, podobne ako postavy Clinta Eastwooda lenže ten hlavný hrdina je žena. Navyše zasadená do komplexných historických súvislostí.

44 fejezet 4 férfiról
Egy iskolapszichológusnak nem illik könyvet írni a szexről, mert az sokak szerint erkölcstelen lenne. Szerencsére az erkölcs soha nem volt az erősségem. Miután éveken keresztül igyekeztem feldobni a szexuális életemet, felhagytam a próbálkozással, és inkább naplóírásba fogtam. Talán jóképű, ám hideg, távolságtartó férjem egyszerűen képtelen megadni azt a szenvedélyt, amire vágytam és meg is kaptam a szétvarrt, tesztoszterontól szétcsattanó expasijaimtól. Ha pedig már amúgy sem tudom újra átélni élményeimet, mi lenne, ha írnék róluk? Jó ötlet, ugye? Senkinek nem kell tudnia róla. Az én kis titkom marad. Erre mi történik? A férjem ráakadt a naplómra. És eláruljak még valamit? Bevállalósabb lett tőle. Ettől megrészegülve elkezdtem feszegetni a határokat - Kent szándékosan manipuláló naplóbejegyzéseket írtam. Többnyire fantasztikusan reagált... kivéve, amikor mégsem. Aztán életem legnagyobb meglepetése várt rám. B.B. Easton elsöprő humorú, szókimondó memoárjából és az ezt követő folytatásokból a Netflix készít tévésorozatot.

Dominic Toretto (Vin Diesel) si myslel, že si konečně bude moci začít užívat klidný život s Letty (Michelle Rodriguez) a synem Brianem, jenže pak se ozvala jeho minulost. V týmu lumpů, kteří se rozhodli ovládnout svět, figuruje i člověk, který je stejně odvážný a nebezpečný jako Dom. A taky skvěle řídí. Koneckonců je to jeho bratr Jakob (John Cena). Rozešli se ve zlém po smrti otce a je jasné, že pokud se jejich cesty znovu zkříží, bude je to asi oba hodně bolet. A protože Jakobovi pomáhá s realizací jeho plánů geniální hackerka Cipher (Charlize Theron), se kterou jsme se seznámili v předchozím díle, musí Dominic tváří v tvář přesile dát znovu dohromady „rodinu“ rychlých a zběsilých řidičů. S nimi se vydá na neuvěřitelnou štreku, která vede přes Londýn, Tokio, středoamerickou džungli a historické uličky Edinburghu až do Ázerbájdžánu. Tam všude budou porušovat dopravní předpisy a fyzikální zákony a pokoušet se přitom zachránit svět.

Lacná kniha How to be an Overnight Success (-50%)
"You are not born an entrepreneur. It's a skill that you learn along the way."
When the skincare company Rodial launched its cult 'snake' serum, the press quickly called the business an 'overnight success'. However, Rodial's founder Maria Hatzistefanis had been toiling for 18 years, building the company from scratch in her bedroom. Now, the beauty boss sets out to demonstrate in this very accessible book that its success stemmed from sheer hard work, tireless efforts and a lot of patience.
Fashion-loving Maria set out with a dream to build a beauty business and - despite not excelling at school, and being fired from her first job - she has achieved it. She did it by dreaming big, working hard, surrounding herself with the best, taking risks, creating buzz and building her own personal brand, which is now a favourite with high-profile models and media personalities including Poppy Delevingne, Daisy Lowe and Kylie Jenner.
Crucially, she believes anyone can do this and her book, brimming with good sense, great advice, tips and secrets - all presented in an easy, friendly style - shows how.
