A Map of Days - Miss Peregrines Peculiar Children
Having defeated the monstrous threat that nearly destroyed the peculiar world, Jacob Portman is back where his story began, in Florida. Except now Miss Peregrine, Emma, and their peculiar friends are with him, and doing their best to blend in. But carefree days of beach visits and normalling lessons are soon interrupted by a discovery - a subterranean bunker that belonged to Jacob's grandfather, Abe.
Clues to Abe's double-life as a peculiar operative start to emerge, secrets long hidden in plain sight. And Jacob begins to learn about the dangerous legacy he has inherited - truths that were part of him long before he walked into Miss Peregrine's time loop.
Now, the stakes are higher than ever as Jacob and his friends are thrust into the untamed landscape of American peculiardom - a world with few ymbrynes, or rules - that none of them understand. New wonders, and dangers, await in this brilliant next chapter for Miss Peregrine's peculiar children. Their story is again fully illustrated by haunting vintage photographs, but with a striking addition for this all-new, multi-era American adventure - full colour.

Skandar 2: Skandar a Prvý jazdec
Druhý diel obľúbenej série konečne prichádza!
Skandar Smith už nemusí snívať, dosiahol to, po čom odnepamäti túžil: Jazdí na jednorožcovi a učí sa používať mágiu donedávna zakázaného elementu. Prvý ročník nebol pre nováčikov najľahší, no nikto nepočítal s tým, že v tom druhom sa na Ostrove objaví nová hrozba. Nesmrteľné divoké jednorožce niekto brutálne zabíja, tajomné proroctvo varuje pred strašným nebezpečenstvom a Ostrov začnú pustošiť živly, ktoré ho predtým formovali... Súvisí vraždenie jednorožcov s pomstou Ostrova, ktorú predpovedá proroctvo? Má to všetko na svedomí Snovačka?
Skandarova sestra Kenna sa medzitým všemožne snaží k svojmu bratovi na ostrove pridať. Skandar je odhodlaný pomôcť jej, nech sa deje čokoľvek. Búrka sa však stupňuje a Ostrovu hrozí, že sa sám zničí... podarí sa mladým jazdcom zachrániť ho skôr, než bude neskoro?

Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo
From the author of Daisy Jones & The Six in which a legendary film actress reflects on her relentless rise to the top and the risks she took, the loves she lost, and the long-held secrets the public could never imagine.
Aging and reclusive Hollywood movie icon Evelyn Hugo is finally ready to tell the truth about her glamorous and scandalous life. But when she chooses unknown magazine reporter Monique Grant for the job, no one is more astounded than Monique herself. Why her? Why now?
Monique is not exactly on top of the world. Her husband has left her, and her professional life is going nowhere. Regardless of why Evelyn has selected her to write her biography, Monique is determined to use this opportunity to jumpstart her career.
Summoned to Evelyn's luxurious apartment, Monique listens in fascination as the actress tells her story. From making her way to Los Angeles in the 1950s to her decision to leave show business in the '80s, and, of course, the seven husbands along the way, Evelyn unspools a tale of ruthless ambition, unexpected friendship, and a great forbidden love. Monique begins to feel a very real connection to the legendary star, but as Evelyn's story near its conclusion, it becomes clear that her life intersects with Monique's own in tragic and irreversible ways.
The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo is a mesmerizing journey through the splendour of old Hollywood into the harsh realities of the present day as two women struggle with what it means and what it costs to face the truth.

Panstvo Soli a smútku
Annaleigh žije so sestrami, s otcom a nevlastnou matkou na osamelom panstve Highmoor na ostrove uprostred nepokojných morí. Kedysi bolo sestier dvanásť, dnes sú však veľkolepé sály panstva studené a prázdne, štyri životy nečakane vyhasli. Jedna smrť bola tragickejšia než druhá – choroba, strmhlavý pád, utopenie, pokĺznutie z útesu. Po okolitých dedinách sa šepká, že rodina je prekliata. Annaleigh klebetám neverí, ale zároveň pochybuje, že šlo o náhodné úmrtia. Ostatné sestry sa po nociach vykrádajú zo svojich izieb, aby tancovali na tajných báloch, v žiarivých črievičkách a hodvábnych róbach, až do úsvitu, a Annaleigh nevie, či sa k nim pridať, alebo im nebezpečné výlety vyhovoriť. Koniec koncov, s kým alebo s čím to vlastne tancujú? Na panstve Highmoore sa deje čosi zvláštne, a Annaleigh musí záhadu vyriešiť, kým nepribudnú ďalšie obete. Mohla by byť jednou z nich.

King of Pride
He's his opposite in every way . . . and the greatest temptation he's ever known.
Reserved, controlled, and proper to a fault, Kai Young has neither the time nor inclination for chaos - and Isabella, with her purple hair and inappropriate jokes, is chaos personified.
With a crucial CEO vote looming and a media empire at stake, the billionaire heir can't afford the distraction she brings.
Isabella is everything he shouldn't want, but with every look and every touch, he's tempted to break all his rules . . . and claim her as his own.
***
Bold, impulsive, and full of life, Isabella Valencia has never met a party she doesn't like or a man she couldn't charm . . . except for Kai Young.
It shouldn't matter. He's not her type - the man translates classics into Latin for fun, and his membership at the exclusive club where she bartends means he's strictly off limits.
But she can't deny that, beneath his cool exterior, is a man who could make her melt with just a touch.
No matter how hard they try, they can't resist giving into their forbidden desires.
Even if it costs them everything.

The Psychology of Money
Doing well with money isn't necessarily about what you know. It's about how you behave. And behavior is hard to teach, even to really smart people.
Money-investing, personal finance, and business decisions-is typically taught as a math-based field, where data and formulas tell us exactly what to do. But in the real world people don't make financial decisions on a spreadsheet. They make them at the dinner table, or in a meeting room, where personal history, your own unique view of the world, ego, pride, marketing, and odd incentives are scrambled together.
In The Psychology of Money, award-winning author Morgan Housel shares 19 short stories exploring the strange ways people think about money and teaches you how to make better sense of one of life's most important topics.
