Liar
The next book in TikTok sensation Tate James's Madison Kate series, a spicy and suspenseful "why choose" romance. Since arriving back to Shadow Grove, MK has been stalked, tormented, chased...and lied to by the boys she was growing to trust. But they're about to learn that they've met their match.
"Liar, liar, pants on fire."
The words scrawled on the back of my newest stalker mail make my blood run cold. I have no idea if the lie is one I know I'm telling...or one that I don't.
Since arriving back to Shadow Grove, I've been stalked, tormented, chased, and almost killed. I've been lied to, repeatedly, by the boys I was finally growing to trust-and more.
Liar.
That word haunts all four of us, but it haunts me the most. Someone knows more about my life than I do. Someone is taunting me with answers and teasing me with secrets. Am I desperate enough to fall for more deception? To fall deeper into this tangle of danger and heat?
One thing is for sure- Archer and his boys made a huge mistake when they decided to keep me from the truth. They thought they could play me, but they're about to learn that they've met their match.
No one stabs Madison Kate in the back and gets away with it.

Worthy
A gripping, painfully honest, and ultimately inspirational memoir from global superstar and creator of the Red Table Talk series Jada Pinkett Smith.
In a media driven landscape that crafts narratives for our celebrities, Smith recounts her story in an intimate conversation with readers. Along the way, she explores her path to accepting her power as a woman, and her discovery that a strong sense of self is every woman’s right and saving grace.
An impactful and rare memoir that engages and educates, Worthy is a courageous love song to self, to family, to life, and to the world.
From an unconventional upbringing in Baltimore, to an unconventional marriage to one of the most famous men in the world, adhering to the status quo has never been a familiar road for Jada Pinkett Smith. In Worthy, Smith strips herself of all the labels and stories crafted by others, and reclaims her narrative with radical self-love. Worthy teaches us who Jada is, and how to embrace our most authentic loveable souls.

Élet lejárt szavatossággal
Az Élet lejárt szavatossággal 30 olyan történetet fog össze, melyek nem általánosítanak, mégis átfogó képet adnak napjaink női társadalmáról, betöltött szerepekről és választott hivatásokról.
A könyv női sorsokat mutat be, megjelennek a női lét fázisai - kislánytól a nagymamáig. Az olvasó együtt remeghet félelmében a megszégyenült tinilánnyal, az aggódó nagymamával és unokával egyaránt. Bartalos Tóth Iveta fontos témája a halál, az elmúlással való szembenézés, a lét végességének elfogadása. Írásai akár terápiás jelleggel is olvashatóak: életek alatt összegyülemlett szorongás és kimondatlan düh fejeződik ki a szereplők reakciói által. Kulcsszerepet játszik a könyvben az anyaság (szülőség) témája, annak minden szépségével és gyötrelmével együtt - az írónő komplex, őszinte képet fest a gyereknevelés viszontagságairól, a minden szülőben megjelenő bizonytalanságokat, magukkal és gyermekeikkel szemben állított elvárásokat, és az ezekből fakadó frusztrációt is érintve. Tökéletesen ábrázolja az anyák láthatatlan munkáját, az észrevétlenül maradt apróságokat, melyek tovább viszik a családi hétköznapokat.
Feszegeti a (hazudott) boldogság és a hála fogalmainak összetettségét és azok mérhetőségét. Bemutatja a fájdalom ezer arcát (kiszolgáltatottságot, megvetést, igazságtalanságot, bántalmazást egyaránt). A történeteket nem dramatizálja túl, a maguk nyers valóságában tárja az olvasó elé. Bepillantást nyerünk az emberi jellemek változásainak folyamataiba, a megélt lelkiismeretfurdalás vívódásaiba, a magára hagyatott ember összetörtségébe. Az életszagú leírások azonban túlmutatnak a negatív összképen - nyilvánvaló szerephez jut a döntés szabadsága, a hála és az elégedettség, továbbá az életigenlés, az akarat ereje és a kitartás.
Ez a novelláskötet kapaszkodót nyújt az állandó megfelelési kényszerben élőknek, erőt ad a küzdeni akaróknak, miközben sejtetni engedi az örökölt viselkedésminták befolyását. A megfáradt lélek és test állapotait leírva rávilágít, hogy hányféleképpen járhat le egy élet szavatossága.
The Night We Met (EN)
As a man holds his wife's fragile hand, he recounts a journey like no other. Daniel and Olivia are destined to be together.

Bordivat - Boros könyv szenvedélyes nőknek
Ha olyan nő vagy, akinek egy-egy pohár bor nem csupán élvezet, hanem önkifejezés is, akárcsak a ruha, a rúzs vagy a cipő; ha olyan nő vagy, aki nemcsak úgy tekint a borra, mint olyasvalamire, amihez érteni kell, hanem úgy is, mint egy-egy alkony, barátnős beszélgetés vagy az első csók emlékére, akkor ez a könyv neked szól. Neked, önképző bormániásnak, aki szeretné rendszerezni a tudását, és még jobban megismerni a bor világát. A Bordivat segítségével tetőtől talpig tudatos borimádó leszel!
A Good and Dignified Life
Rosa Luxemburg (1871-1919) and Hannah Arendt (1906-1975) were critical Jewish mavericks who both suffered under violent political regimes and sought to reform systems of power. Although temporally separated by the Second World War and the rise of totalitarianism, they held in common strikingly similar convictions about freedom, human dignity, capitalism, democracy, and political commitment.
In this powerful book, Joke J. Hermsen explores the lives and works of these two remarkable thinkers and the essential hope that emboldened them in the political struggle. Luxemburg and Arendt were spurred on by a restless love for the world and an unwavering belief in the possibility of new beginnings; for them, hope was an absolute prerequisite of resistance and a counterpoint to melancholy-a defense against despair that kept them attuned to what could be.
Exploring the intertwined nature of philosophy and the active pursuit of justice, this is an urgent, courageous reminder to remain alert to the glimmers of hope in dark times.

Arboretum
For over thirty years, besides making music, David Byrne has focused his unique genius upon forms as diverse as the archaeology of music as we know it, architectural photography and the uses of PowerPoint. Now he presents his most personal work to date, a collection of drawings exploring the form of the tree diagram.
Arboretum is an eclectic blend of science, automatic writing, self-analysis and satire. A journey through irrational logic – the application of scientific rigour and form to irrational premises, proceeding from careful nonsense to unexpected sense.
The tree diagram is a form that might reveal more about yourself than you dreamed possible.
