The Ministry of Common Sense How to Eliminate Bureaucratic Red Tape, Bad Excuses
Where's the common sense? During the COVID-19 pandemic, the TSA is allowing passengers to board planes with unlimited amounts of hand sanitizer, while maintaining its 3.4-ounce limit on all other liquids. You need a chainsaw to pry open your new pair of headphones from their package. Your eighth Zoom meeting of the day keeps freezing, and if you hear "No, wait; no, you go first" again, you will implode. But first you have to sit through an endless PowerPoint presentation that everyone claims they've read - no one has - that could have been summarized in one page.
What has happened to common sense? And how can we get it back? Companies, it seems, have become so entangled in their own internal issues and beset by reams of invisible red tape (and frozen screens) that they've lost sight of their purpose and culture. Inevitably, we pay the price.
New York Times best-selling author Martin Lindstrom combines numerous real-life examples of corporate common sense gone wrong with his own ingenious plan for restoring logic - and sanity - to the companies and people who need it most. A must-read for today's executives, managers, and office workers, The Ministry of Common Sense is funny, entertaining, and immensely practical.

Reclaiming His Rights
A careless mistake convinced Jason that for his wife’s sake, he had to abandon the Dominant/submissive aspect of their marriage. Now, he realizes that giving up Lila’s submission was an even bigger mistake. After months of believing he rejected her, she won’t even talk about it. He’s determined to reclaim her, but he’ll have to break down her resistance before he can regain her trust.
~~~~~ Excerpt ~~~~~
“Where do you think you’re going?”
Lila’s hand froze on the knob for a fraction of a second before she regained her composure.
“You know perfectly well where I’m going,” she snapped at her husband.
“You didn’t say anything to me about it.”
She whirled toward the sound of Jason’s voice, startled by how quickly and quietly he had crossed the room. Another few steps and he was beside her, leaning casually against the door she was about to open. Despite his relaxed posture, there was a keen watchfulness in his gray-green eyes that reminded her of a cat waiting for the movement that would trigger it to pounce. She turned the knob and pulled, but he held the door closed.
“Knock it off, Jason. I’m meeting the same friends I’ve been meeting every Friday. Now let me open the door.”
Without taking his hand off the door, he angled his body behind hers. She spun to keep facing him as he pivoted toward the wall. She didn’t realize she had been backing up until she felt the wall against her backside. He moved closer until she was backed completely against the wall. He waited for her to make eye contact. When she didn’t, he reached for her chin and tilted her face up toward his. She tossed her head, but he caught her chin.
“Look at me, kitten.”
Her eyes locked on his automatically. She was too busy sorting out how she felt about being called “kitten” to balk at his order. “Kitten” was a name Jason hadn’t used in nearly a year—not since the day he decided their relationship would change forever.
She tried again to jerk her chin away, but he tightened his grip. Unwilling to acknowledge the heat in his gaze, she let her eyes wander to the lock of dark hair that had fallen forward to rest rakishly over his eyebrow.
“Kitten,” Jason warned when she broke eye contact.
His voice was low and serious. She thought of it as his “I mean business” Dom's voice, and it made her shiver. She ignored the fluttery feeling in her stomach.
“Don’t call me that!”
He searched her face without responding to her demand. He expected her anger, but he was looking for something else. The arch of her eyebrows and the set of her mouth conveyed her indignation, but he knew it was her eyes that would tell him the whole story. They were large and expressive, fringed by sable lashes that shielded her gaze when her eyes were averted. Anger smoldered in their dark brown depths as she glared up at him.
She narrowed her eyes and tried to pull away, but she had nowhere to go. Undeterred, Jason shifted to insinuate his leg between her thighs. Her eyes widened in shock, and for a moment she dropped her guard. Beneath the anger, he could see pain and longing. He took his hand from the door and brushed her honey-brown hair back from her face.
“You’re staying home with me tonight, kitten.”
“You have no right to call me that!”
She pushed at his chest, but he caught her wrist and pinned it back against the wall. When she tried to pull his hand away from her chin, he caught her other hand. He gathered her wrists in one hand and held them crossed against the wall over her head, leaving his other hand free to roam.
“No right? That’s what we’re going to find out.” He ran his hand slowly down her side. “We have all night to see whether or not I still have the right.”

Vacation in Naples
Niki Ladányi, the young investigative journalist has a cold-blooded criminal to thank for the biggest story of her life. She might have managed to put him behind bars, but Verbovszky hasn’t forgotten her: after he escapes from jail, he heads out to get his revenge. Meanwhile, Niki is hot on a new trail, investigating a story in Naples about dogs smuggled out of Hungary, for possibly something other than their pedigree. Niki takes along her mother, who reunites with an old flame from her youth, Alessandro. The unfinished business between Niki’s mother and the former tailor – who has since become a successful name of Italian Haute Couture – sparks more than just a yearning for the past. Alessandro’s son, Giacomo, also feels increasingly attached to Niki, but the criminal on her trail and Niki’s complicated love affair with Andras, a detective back in Budapest, combined with the intricacies of her grandmother’s dangerous new job, all come together, causing a twist in Niki’s vacation in Naples… perhaps changing the lives of two families forever.
Is it possible to rekindle a relationship after thirty years? Can love be passed down from mother to daughter? Can a son make a decision for his father when a business and a family are at stake? Can a detective still insist on doing the right thing if his actions endanger himself and the people he loves?
Love and career, revenge and forgiveness, tradition and renewal; three generations, two families, a decision for life: all this in Eva Fejos’s best novel yet. Come along on her Vacation in Naples.

Egy ponton azt a döntést hozza, hogy saját kezébe veszi a sorsát...

The Indiscretion of the Prime Minister
Jennie must surely regret her impersonation of the Princess von Steinheimer at the Duchess of Chiselhurst’s Ball. Detectives know it wasn't the real Princess and are pressing her for more information. And, in the meantime, she received a letter from her Highness:
"My dear Jennie,” her Highness wrote, “I am sure the detectives are after you, and so I thought it best to send you a word of warning. Of course it is only surmise on my part, but for days there has been a woman hovering about the castle, trying to get information from my servants. My maid came directly to me and told me what she knew. The woman detective had spoken to her. This inquisitive person, who had come from Paris, wished particularly to know whether I had been seen about the castle during the week in which the Duchess of Chiselhurst’s ball took place; and so this leads me to suppose that some one is making inquiries for you. It must be either Lord Donal Stirling or the Duke of Chiselhurst, but I rather think it is the former. I have written an indignant letter to Lord Donal, accusing him of having caused detectives to haunt the castle. I have not yet received a reply, but Lord Donal is a truthful person, and in a day or two I expect to find out whether or not he has a hand in this business. Meanwhile, Jennie, be on your guard, and I will write you again as soon as I have something further to tell.”
Ominous developments, indeed! And how does the Prime Minister fit into all this?

The Protection of Love
After her mother had succumbed to pneumonia and followed her husband to the grave, beautiful young Meta Lindley is bereft.
Now that her much-loved brother Richard is away in London most of the time, she is alone in the family’s once laughter-filled Manor House with only silence and her father’s pedigree stable of horses for company.
Meta is delighted when Richard pays her a surprise visit, but when he reveals that he and their Diplomat father had worked as undercover Agents, it is Richard who is taken aback to find that Meta and their Mama had known all along!
Then, to Meta’s amazement, Richard asks her to undertake a vital and very perilous spy mission of her own. A Russian Prince, whom Queen Victoria suspects is a spy, has arrived in England with his young sister, Princess Nathlia, and is looking for a country house where he can hunt and ride superb horses.
Richard has offered to rent The Manor House to Prince Alexis for the Season and has offered Meta’s services as English Tutor to the seventeen-year-old Princess Nathlia.
In that guise Meta’s mission is to observe the Russians and report back to the Queen any suspicious behaviour that might suggest that the Prince is indeed a spy.
Soon Meta finds that there is very much more to the handsome Prince and the stunningly beautiful Princess than meets the eye and, as she watches her beloved brother fall in love with Princess Nathlia, and she with him, she despairs of ever finding such a sublime love of her own.

What's Good
What's Good is a work of passionate lyrical analysis, a set of freewheeling liner notes, and a love letter to the most vital American art form of the last half century. Over a series of short chapters, each centered on a different lyric, Daniel Levin Becker considers how rap's use of language operates and evolves at levels ranging from the local (slang, rhyme) to the analytical (quotation, transcription) to the philosophical (morality, criticism, irony), celebrating the pleasures and perils of any attempt to decipher its meaning-making technologies.
Ranging from Sugarhill Gang to UGK to Young M.A, Rakim to Rick Ross to Rae Sremmurd, Jay-Z to Drake to Snoop Dogg, What's Good reads with the momentum of a deftly curated mixtape, drawing you into the conversation and teaching you to read it as it goes. A book for committed hip-hop heads, curious neophytes, armchair linguists, and everyone in between.

Den byl pro mě krátkej
Vyrůstala v centru stalinské Prahy. Jako malá rozsvěcovala s maminkou na Karlově mostě plynové lampy, prala ve Vltavě, chodila s bandaskou pro mléko. V osadě u babičky na Slovensku poznala staré romské tradice a rodovou pospolitost a zažila nezapomenutelnou atmosféru vypravěčských a hudebních sešlostí. Naučila se, že život má naplňovat hudba a tanec stejně jako pomoc druhým, ochota dělit se, pracovitost a hrdost na romské kořeny. Tento recept předávala neúnavně desítky let dál.
Ikona romské kultury, bezmála osmdesátiletá Olga Fečová, žena s nezdolnou energií, představuje svůj život v knize, která na půdorysu individuálního osudu vypráví příběh Romů v československém prostoru. Postupně před čtenářem krystalizuje portrét silné osobnosti, jež je stálou a magnetizující autoritou pro celé generace Romů.
„Spisovatelka Olga Fečová ve své fascinující kronice vede čtenáře do slovenských hor i do pražských činžáků. V jejím líčení ožívají docela obyčejní lidé i věhlasné osobností. A nezapře, že je z muzikantské rodiny: vypráví se stejnou bravurou, s jakou někdo dokáže rozeznít housle.“ --- Jáchym Topol
„Paní Olga byla úžasná umělkyně, pedagožka a v neposlední řadě krásný člověk. Tato romská ikona nám všem byla vzorem a její kniha zůstane poselstvím pro další a další generace jak Romů, tak Neromů.“ --- Ida Kelarová
„Úžasná kniha. Žádá se mi citovat Václava Havla: Život je radostná spoluúčast na zázraku bytí. Byť se občas odehrává v temných kulisách. Olga Fečová je ovšem dokáže prosvětlit nadějí.“ --- Fedor Gál

Liberte
Liberte by Gita Trelease is the spell-binding sequel to the bestselling Enchantee.
Magic. Betrayal. Sacrifice.
Camille Durbonne gambled everything she had to keep herself and her sister safe. But as the people of Paris starve and mobs riot, safety may no longer be possible . . .
Not when Camille lives for the rebellion. In the pamphlets she prints, she tells the stories of girls living at society's margins. But as her writings captivate the public, she begins to suspect a dark magic she can't control lies at the heart of her success. Then Louis XVI declares magic a crime and all magicians traitors to France. As bonfires incinerate enchanted books and special police prowl the city, the time for magic - and those who work it - is running out.
In this new Paris where allegiances shift and violence erupts, the answers Camille seeks set her on a perilous path, one that may cost her the boy she loves - and even her life. If she can discover who she truly is before vengeful forces unmask her, she may still win this deadly game of revolution.
