This Girl Is on Fire
Andrea McLean, No. 1 Sunday Times bestselling author and award-winning TV broadcaster, opens up about her journey from trauma, toxic relationships and divorce towards empowerment, happiness and healing.
Do you ever feel like you're just existing, not truly living? Do you often dwell on how unfair life can be, and how things haven't worked out the way you planned? We've all been there. But it's time to decide what YOU are going to DO about it. No matter what hand you've been dealt, it's in your power to take control and create a life alight with possibility and joy.
After walking away from an abusive relationship, Andrea McLean continued putting on a brave face and pretending that everything was fine - all the while ignoring the psychological fallout of her trauma. Finally, it came time to say 'enough!' It was time to make a change.
In This Girl Is On Fire, Andrea shares her journey to healing, along with universal lessons in overcoming past trauma, breakdown, burnout and more. Even more vitally, she lights the path towards finding what gets our blood pumping, our eyes shining, and makes us get up in the morning - what sets us on fire.

This Is Your Mind On Plants
THE INSPIRATION FOR THE MAJOR NEW NETFLIX SERIES, HOW TO CHANGE YOUR MIND
'It's a trip - engrossing, eye-opening, mind altering' New Statesman
'Fascinating. Pollan is the perfect guide ... curious, careful, open minded' The Guardian
Of all the many things humans rely on plants for, surely the most curious is our use of them to change consciousness: to stimulate, calm, or completely alter the qualities of our mental experience. In This Is Your Mind On Plants, Michael Pollan explores three very different drugs - opium, caffeine and mescaline - and throws the fundamental strangeness of our thinking about them into sharp relief. Exploring and participating in the cultures that have grown up around these drugs, while consuming (or in the case of caffeine, trying not to consume) them, Pollan reckons with the powerful human attraction to psychoactive plants, and the equally powerful taboos.
In a unique blend of history, science, memoir and reportage, Pollan shines a fresh light on a subject that is all too often treated reductively. In doing so, he proves that there is much more to say about these plants than simply debating their regulation, for when we take them into our bodies and let them change our minds, we are engaging with nature in one of the most profound ways we can. This ground-breaking and singular book holds up a mirror to our fundamental human needs and aspirations, the operations of our minds and our entanglement with the natural world.
We Had To Remove This Post
To be a content moderator is to see humanity at its worst - but Kayleigh needs money. That's why she takes a job working for a social media platform whose name she isn't allowed to mention. Her job: reviewing offensive videos and pictures, rants and conspiracy theories, and deciding which need to be removed.
It's gruelling work. Kayleigh and her colleagues spend all day watching horrors and hate on their screens, evaluating them with the platform's ever-changing moderating guidelines. Yet Kayleigh is good at her job, and in her colleagues she finds a group of friends, even a new girlfriend - and for the first time in her life, Kayleigh's future seems bright.
But soon the job seems to change them all, shifting their worlds in alarming ways. How long before the moderators own morals bend and flex under the weight of what they see?
We Had To Remove This Post by Hanna Bervoets is a chilling, powerful and gripping story about who or what determines our world view. Examining the toxic world of content moderation, the novel forces us to ask: what is right? What is real? What is normal? And who gets to decide?
It Was Like This...
Thirty years have passed since Éva Janikovszky wrote Az úgy volt. The coin-operated phone-box in the street is no longer an excuse for a thirteen-year-old boy to slip out of his apartment. The international scouting movement has taken the place of Hungary's "pioneer" movement. At the 1933 Boy Scout World Jamboree in Hungary Lord Baden-Powell announced, "I want to see men of all countries at peace with each other. You are the future men of your countries, so be friends! and urged the boys to swap addresses and become pen-friends. Our teenage hero tries both of these things. He also tries skating, lying to his girl-friend, planting trees and shrubs in the park, all with varying degrees of success. Most of all, he tries to understand the world around him, dominated by adults who are his own and his friends parents, relatives and teachers. Essentially he is no different from today's teenagers with their mobile phones, MP4s and computers. That is why Éva Janikovszky is timeless: she could see into her own child as he grew, implant herself in his thoughts, and make them universal and ageless. This is why all these decades later young adolescents (not to mention their parents!) will be enthralled by this, the latest of Móra Publishing House?s English translations of Éva Janikovszky's (semi-)fiction for children. Illustrated by László Réber.

This Year's For Me and You
When Celeste loses her best friend Hannah, she'll do anything to keep her spirit alive.
So when she uncovers her friend's old list of New Year's resolutions, Celeste vows to complete them all.
One adventure at a time, she rediscovers how wonderful life can be.
But when one resolution leads her to someone from her past, Celeste can't help but wonder . . .
Could the biggest adventure of all be falling in love?
No One Is Talking About This
This is a story about a life lived in two halves.
It's about what happens when real life collides with the increasing absurdity of a world accessed through a screen.
It's about living in world that contains both an abundance of proof that there is goodness, empathy, and justice in the universe, and a deluge of evidence to the contrary.
It's a meditation on love, language and human connection from one of the most original voices of our time.
This is love - Végre szerelem
Remi Divine színésznőnek elege van a zaklatókból, de a testőrökből is. Egyáltalán abból, hogy minden lépését figyelik. De azért egy cseppet sem kell félteni! Tudja, hogyan kovácsoljon előnyt lázadó szelleméből: meg kell szabadulnia basáskodó testőreitől, akik tapadnak rá, és ennek legjobb módja a szökés.
Mason Swift biztonsági céget vezet, élete mások védelméről szól. Amikor Remi megszökik két legjobb emberétől, a férfi átveszi az irányítást, és maga áll a színésznő mellé testőrnek, minden tőle telhetőt megtéve, hogy jól végezze a munkáját. Mivel állami gondozásban nőtt fel, és egykor a különleges erőknél szolgált, minden trükköt jól ismer. Semmi sem kerüli el a figyelmét, főleg nem a gyönyörű, leleményes Remi.
A férfi azt hiszi a nőről, hogy hisztérikus. A nő azt hiszi a férfiról, hogy arrogáns. De azonnal szikrák lobbantják lángra őket a másik jelenlétében, és megnyílnak egymás felé, így kapcsolatuk hamarosan megállíthatatlan lesz. Amikor pedig bekövetkezik a tragédia, Remi rájön, hogy nem az a legrosszabb dolog a világon, ha valaki meg akarja védeni.

Lacná kniha Vatikánske tajomstvá (-90%)
Zázračné zjavenia a apokalyptické proroctvá sú javy, ktoré sa objavujú na titulných stranách a často vyvolávajú rozpory medzi koncepciou „racionálnej viery“ katolíckej cirkvi a nadšením najhorlivejších stúpencov. Fenomény ako Turínske plátno, zjavenia Panny Márie v Medžugorí a údajná mimoriadna moc telesných pozostatkov svätých mnohí ľudia považujú za skutočný dôkaz súkromného spojenia s Bohom. Iní ich nepokladajú za viac ako dielo náboženských šarlatánov. Pre Vatikán sú však tieto problémy oveľa zložitejšie, keďže každý údajný zázrak môže mať vážne teologické a politické dôsledky.
Vo Vatikánskych tajomstvách publicista John Thavis s využitím tridsaťročných skúseností na poste spravodajcu vo Vatikáne objasňuje málo známy proces hodnotenia týchto javov a odhaľuje vážne interné diskusie o legitimite zázračných uzdravení, súkromných zjavení, exorcizmu a ďalších nevysvetliteľných javov. Autor ich skúma z perspektívy viacerých kľúčových aktérov – vedcov, hlboko veriacich ľudí, skeptikov i samotných rozvážnych posudzovateľov Vatikánu.
Kniha Vatikánske tajomstvá je poučná a prístupná pre katolíkov i nekatolíkov. Ponúka pútavý opis zápasu cirkvi o zmiernenie napätia medzi tradičnou vierou a súčasným skepticizmom.

How Did We Get Into This Mess?
Where have we gone wrong, and what can we do about it?
George Monbiot is one of the most vocal, and eloquent, critics of the current consensus. How Did We Get into this Mess?, based on his powerful journalism, assesses the state we are now in: the devastation of the natural world, the crisis of inequality, the corporate takeover of nature, our obsessions with growth and profit and the decline of the political debate over what to do.
While his diagnosis of the problems in front of us is clear-sighted and reasonable, he also develops solutions to challenge the politics of fear. How do we stand up to the powerful when they seem to have all the weapons? What can we do to prepare our children for an uncertain future? Controversial, clear but always rigorously argued, How Did We Get into this Mess? makes a persuasive case for change in our everyday lives, our politics and economics, the ways we treat each other and the natural world.
