Tom Clancy’s Chain of Command
America is under attack from within. Patients in hospitals, clinics, and at home are dying when the drugs they need for survival turn out to be ineffective copies. A corrupt pharmaceutical billionaire has spent millions supporting radical groups while using the chaos they engender to cover his money-making schemes, but for a man with such towering ambitions, the only real goal is power.
To get that, he'll have to eliminate the only impediment in his path -- Jack Ryan. The question is, how do you attack the most closely guarded man in the world?
For a man who has built his fortune on underhanded dealings and misdirection, the answer is as simple as it is shocking:
He'll have to kidnap the First Lady.
Reminders of Him
A troubled young mother yearns for a shot at redemption in this heartbreaking yet hopeful story from #1 New York Times bestselling author Colleen Hoover.
After serving five years in prison for a tragic mistake, Kenna Rowan returns to the town where it all went wrong, hoping to reunite with her four-year-old daughter. But the bridges Kenna burned are proving impossible to rebuild. Everyone in her daughter's life is determined to shut Kenna out, no matter how hard she works to prove herself.
The only person who hasn't closed the door on her completely is Ledger Ward, a local bar owner and one of the few remaining links to Kenna's daughter. But if anyone were to discover how Ledger is slowly becoming an important part of Kenna's life, both would risk losing the trust of everyone important to them.
The two form a connection despite the pressure surrounding them, but as their romance grows, so does the risk. Kenna must find a way to absolve the mistakes of her past in order to build a future out of hope and healing.

Slovak Naive Art in Serbia
The World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO) awarded this book a medal for creativity in 2015, for authors of distinguished works in the field of humanist social sciences.
During my research I conducted 65 interviews with the painters or their family members, among whom 63 are included in the representative list Of Slovak naive painters from Serbia.
Besides the painter's naratives and their ethnological and anthropological analysis, this edition also includes visual material presented to the readers. Paintings by naive artists made in rural surroundings are in a way ethnographic notes on socioculturalcontinuity and changes in the life of the Slovak national minority in Serbia.
Rule of the Robots
In this sequel to his prescient New York Times bestseller Rise of the Robots, Martin Ford presents us with a striking vision of the very near future. He argues that AI is a uniquely powerful technology, a kind of "electricity of intelligence" that is altering every dimension of human life, often for the better with advanced science being done by machines who can solve problems humans can not. AI has the potential to help us fight climate change or the next pandemic, but it also has a capacity for profound harm. Deep fakes-AI-generated audio or video of events that never happened-are poised to cause havoc throughout society. AI empowers authoritarian regimes like China with unprecedented mechanisms for social control. And AI can be deeply biased, learning bigoted attitudes from the data used to train algorithms and perpetuating them.
Hard-hitting and thought-provoking, covering everything from self-driving cars to the history of deep learning to apps for diagnosing skin cancer, Rule of the Robots challenges our fears and preconceptions about artificial intelligence. Ford argues that AI is here to stay and the real question is not how to stop it, but how to control its negative potential and harness its power for good as AI transforms our economy, our politics, and our lives.
Fight Club
Every weekend, in basements and parking lots across the country, young men with good white-collar jobs and absent fathers take off their shoes and shirts and fight each other barehanded for as long as they have to. Then they go back to those jobs with blackened eyes and loosened teeth and the sense that they can handle anything. Fight Club is the invention of Tyler Durden, projectionist, waiter and dark, anarchic genius. And it's only the beginning of his plans for revenge on a world where cancer support groups have the corner on human warmth.

Diamond in the Ash
I had no idea the magical world of Nebula existed, much less that my brother and I are two of the most powerful supernatural beings in existence. I'm a Diamond Witch. Powerful. Courageous. A healer. My brother and I had no idea that the magical world of Nebula existed, let alone that we are two of the most powerful supernatural beings on earth. Gemstone Academy is the training ground for paranormal creatures. As it turns out, Nebula is in trouble, making Mason and me responsible for the defense of a world we didn't even know about. We need to prove to Nebula and the Academy that we are prepared to use our magic, harness our power, and help our fellow supernaturals prepare for battle. Sadly, the creatures here are viciously unforgiving, and most of them don't believe that we belong. They have no problem telling us as much, either, forcing us to tread carefully. Don't get me started on my personal kryptonite Asher, the Alpha Werewolf. The man is both dangerously seductive and terrifyingly mysterious. But the secrets run rampant here, and whatever the Order is hiding from us could be the difference between life and death.
