Cleopatra and Frankenstein
New York is slipping from Cleo's grasp. Sure, she's at a different party every other night, but she barely knows anyone. Her student visa is running out, and she doesn't even have money for cigarettes. But then she meets Frank. Twenty years older, Frank's life is full of all the success and excess that Cleo's lacks. He offers her the chance to be happy, the freedom to paint, and the opportunity to apply for a green card. She offers him a life imbued with beauty and art-and, hopefully, a reason to cut back on his drinking. He is everything she needs right now.
Cleo and Frank run head-first into a romance that neither of them can quite keep up with. It reshapes their lives and the lives of those around them, whether that's Cleo's best friend struggling to embrace his gender identity in the wake of her marriage, or Frank's financially dependent sister arranging sugar daddy dates after being cut off. Ultimately, this chance meeting between two strangers outside of a New Year's Eve party changes everything, for better or worse.
Cleopatra and Frankenstein is an astounding and painfully relatable debut novel about the spontaneous decisions that shape our entire lives and those imperfect relationships born of unexpectedly perfect evenings.

Overcoming Pride
Do you feel that you have to be the best to have any value?
Do you always have to be better than others?
Do you feel that you are horrible and can’t take a compliment?
If so, you may need some healing from pride.
Unhealthy pride tells you that you are better than others. It tells you that you can’t be bothered to do something “beneath” you or your position to help someone else. Pride may also wrap itself in false humility and be overly critical and harsh with yourself.
Pride lies.
This book will walk you through emotional and spiritual healing strategies from a Christian worldview so you won’t need to listen to those lies ever again. We’ll cover:
Generational Issues
Ungodly Beliefs and Lies
Emotional Wounds
Demonic Oppression
And more!
Plus strategies to walk out the healing you’ve received.
Are you ready to heal your heart and embrace the fullness of your identity?

Note: Each book in this series utilizes the same tools, but is tailored to each topic.

Héloise Adélaide Letissier profesionálne známy ako „Christine and the Queens“ a „Redcar“, alebo jednoducho „Chris“, je francúzsky spevák a skladateľ. Narodil sa a vyrastal v Nantes, ako štvorročný sa začal učiť hru na klavíri a počas štúdia našiel inšpiráciu v jednom z londýnskych klubov. Jeho debutový štúdiový album „Chaleur humaine“ (2014) získal uznanie kritiky, dostal sa na 2. miesto vo francúzskom aj britskom rebríčku a vo Francúzsku bol certifikovaný ako diamantový; bola to tiež najpredávanejšia debutová nahrávka v Spojenom kráľovstve.

Clash, The Guardian a The Independent ho označili za album roka a umiestnili sa v prvej desiatke z deviatich ďalších koncoročných zoznamov. Skladbu „Girlfriend“ ocenil časopis Time ako pieseň roka. V reakcii na smrť svojej matky vydal Letissier v roku 2020 EP“La vita nuova“, pričom niektorí kritici ho označili za jeho doteraz najsilnejšie dielo. „PARANOIA, ANGELS, TRUE LOVE“ je napísaný, nahraný a produkovaný Christine and the Queens, s koprodukciou Mikea Deana (Lana Del Rey, Beyonce) s hosťami ako 070 Shake a Madonna.

Čarovné Tatry a Zamagurie - Magical Tatras and Zamagurie Region
Na ktorý kraj sú Slováci najviac hrdí? Je na Slovensku nejaké miesto, kde sa akosi všetci cítime doma? Odpoveď je jednoduchá, predsa naše Tatry a Pieniny! O Tatrách či Pieninách vyšlo už niekoľko fotografických kníh, tak čím je táto iná? Fotografie v nej nemajú len jedného autora, ale presne 35. Sú to ľudia, ktorí pravidelne chodia zdolávať strmé štíty a nocovať do hôr. Sú to ľudia, ktorí trpezlivo striehnu na svoj záber. Sú to ľudia, ktorí sa o svoju radosť z vydarenej fotografie chcú podeliť s nami všetkými. Preto poskytli svoje krásne zábery a mohla vzniknúť táto unikátna kniha. Nenájdete v nej technické popisy, históriu, alebo faktografiu. Na to slúžia iné knihy. V tejto však môžete nájsť emóciu a dobrú energiu, a to od prvej strany až po poslednú. V každej fotografii je totiž skrytý kus duše jej autora, ktorá si pamätá jej príbeh. Ak sa do nej zahľadíte, ona vám ho rozpovie. Čarovne!

Daisy Jones and The Six
From the author of CARRIE SOTO IS BACK, THE SEVEN HUSBANDS OF EVELYN HUGO and the bestselling MALIBU RISING
Everybody knows Daisy Jones and the Six.
From the moment Daisy walked barefoot on to the stage at the Whisky, she and the band were a sensation.
Their sound defined an era. Their albums were on every turntable. They played sold-out arenas from coast to coast.
Then, on 12 July 1979, it all came crashing down.
They were lovers, friends, brothers. But they were also rivals.
This is the story of their legendary rise and irrevocable fall. A story of ambition, desire, heartbreak and music.
Everyone was there. Everyone remembers it differently. Nobody knew why they split. Until now...
