'Welcome to Ocean View. You don't know it yet, but you'll be happy here...'
Julia's not running away. Not exactly. She just needs a break from Paris and Marc and all the sad stuff that's been going on lately. A little time to pull herself together.
The job offer felt like a lifeline. But now she's back in Biarritz, suitcase in hand, she hasn't the faintest idea what she was thinking.
What Julia doesn't yet know is there's more to the odds and ends of Ocean View than meet the eye. Behind the double doors lie broken hearts, lifelong secrets, a touch of romance and an unwavering passion for life. And sometimes it's the most unlikely of places and people who help you find your way.

A kezdet
A ?Riverdale című nagy sikerű Netflix-sorozat első évadának előzménysztorija! Imádod a sorozatot, és nem tudsz betelni vele? Vagy még nem kezdted el nézni, de kíváncsi vagy rá? Akkor ez a regény neked szól! Hagyd, hogy beszippantson Riverdale városának rejtélyes világa! A vörös hajú Archie, Jughead, a szavak mestere és a jó kislánynak tűnő Betty hosszú évek óta minden nyarat együtt szoktak tölteni. Ez a mostani azonban más, mint az eddigiek. Archie egy titokzatos személy miatt kifordul önmagából, sportolás helyett gitározik és dalokat ír, elhanyagolva a magányos Jugheadet, akinek a rossz társaságba keveredő apja miatt igazán szüksége lenne egy barátra. Ráadásul most Betty sem tudja megoldani a problémákat, ugyanis Los Angelesben gyakornokoskodik egy magazinnál, és folyton keresztbe tesz neki, ami megnehezíti, hogy elfojtsa a benne lakozó sötétséget – megvannak a maga gondjai: valamint nem beszélve arról, hogy bármit tesz ellene, még mindig arról a bizonyos vörös hajú szomszéd fiúról ábrándozik. Aztán ott van még a pletykalapok üdvöskéje, az IT-lány Veronica, aki alól szép lassan kihúzzák a luxustalajt a családja nem túl tisztességesen szerzett vagyona miatt, és ezáltal egyre közelebb kerül Riverdale-hez, ahol nem is tudja, mi minden várja majd.

The Neighbourhood
From the Nobel Laureate comes a politically charged detective novel weaving through the underbelly of Peruvian privilege. In the 1990s, during the turbulent and deeply corrupt years of Alberto Fujimori's presidency, two wealthy couples of Lima's high society become embroiled in a disturbing vortex of erotic adventures and politically driven blackmail.
One day Enrique, a high-profile businessman, receives a visit from Rolando Garro, the editor of a notorious magazine that specializes in salacious exposes. Garro presents Enrique with lewd pictures from an old business trip and demands that he invest in the magazine. Enrique refuses, and the next day the pictures are on the front page. Meanwhile, Enrique's wife is in the midst of a passionate and secret affair with the wife of Enrique's lawyer and best friend. When Garro shows up murdered, the two couples are thrown into a whirlwind of navigating Peru's unspoken laws and customs, while the staff of the magazine embark on their greatest expose yet.
Ironic and sensual, provocative and redemptive, the novel swirls into the kind of restless realism that has become Mario Vargas Llosa's signature style. A twisting, unpredictable tale, The Neighborhood is at once a scathing indictment of Fujimori's regime and a crime thriller that evokes the vulgarity of freedom in a corrupt system.

Jane Austen: The Complete Works
This title includes: Sense and Sensibility, Pride and Prejudice, Mansfield Park, Emma, Northanger Abbey, Persuasion, and, Love and Freindship. Few novelists have conveyed the subtleties and nuances of their own social milieu with the wit and insight of Jane Austen. Through her vivacious and spirited heroines and their circle, she paints vivid portraits of English middle-class life as the eighteenth century came to a close. Each of the novels is a love story and a story about marriage - marriage for love, for financial security, for social status. But they are not mere romances; ironic, comic and wise, they are masterly studies of the society Jane Austen observed. The seven books in this box set contain some of the most brilliant, dazzling prose in the English language.
