A Bridgerton család 1: A herceg és én
A regény alapján készült sorozat 2020 decemberétől látható a Netflixen. Létezik-e nagyobb kihívás a londoni előkelő társaság ambiciózus anyái számára, mint egy nőtlen herceg, akihez lányukat örömest feleségül adnák? Minden jel arra mutat, hogy Simon Basset meg fogja kérni legjobb barátja húga, a bájos és okos Daphne Bridgerton kezét. Ami csak kettejük titka: házasságról szó sincs, csak így kívánják Simontól távol tartani a lányaikat férjhez adni kívánó, igen aktív társasági hölgyeket. Daphne pedig, mivel hercegi udvarló találta kívánatosnak, később alkalmas kérőket kaphat.

Becoming: Adapted for Younger Readers
*A younger reader's edition of the number-one bestselling memoir by former first lady of the United States, Michelle Obama. With a new introduction from Mrs Obama herself*
What's important is our story, our whole story, including those moments when we feel a little vulnerable . . .
Michelle Robinson started life sharing a bedroom with her older brother Craig, in their family's upstairs apartment in her great-aunt's house. Her parents, Fraser and Marian, poured their love and energy into their children. She would go on to become Michelle Obama, the inspirational First Lady of the United States of America.
Now adapted for younger readers, with new photographs and a new introduction from Michelle Obama herself, this memoir tells a very personal, and completely inspiring, story of how, through hard work and determination, the girl from the South Side of Chicago built an extraordinary life.
A tale of ups and downs, triumphs and failures, this is an incredibly honest account. It will take you from the early years - first kiss, first school, first love - to the wonders of the White House, and the moment Mrs Obama shook hands with the Queen of England.
A book to read, share, and talk about with the adults in your life, this is a call to action and compassion, and hope for change in uncertain times, and in a scary world.
You'll be inspired to help others, and understand that no one is perfect. Just like Michelle Obama, you too are finding out exactly who you want to be (and, actually, so are the adults in your life).
Above all, it is a book to make you think: who are you, and what do you want to become?

A 19 éves Avery Morgansten életét egy öt évvel korábbi halloween-buli mindörökre megváltoztatta. Menekvésként az otthonától több ezer kilométerre lévő egyetemre jelentkezik. Nem akar mást, mint minden feltűnést kerülve elvégezni az iskoláit - de már az első napon összeakad egy sráccal, aki képes darabokra törni a maga számára gondosan felépített jövőt.
Vannak dolgok, amiket át kell élni...
Cameron Hamilton 190 centi magas, amolyan leányálom - szikrázóan kék szemmel és valami megfoghatatlan képességgel arra, hogy Avery megint olyasmikre vágyjon, amiktől évekkel korábban megfosztották. Veszedelmes dolog lenne közelebbről is megismerkedni vele, de lehetetlen figyelmen kívül hagyni a kettejük között vibráló feszültséget, ami felszínre hozza Avery személyiségének egy mindeddig ismeretlen oldalát.
Vannak dolgok, amiket nem lehet elhallgatni...
Aztán Avery egyre több fenyegető e-mailt és hívást kap, és kénytelen szembenézni a múltjával, amit annyira szeretett volna mindörökre elfelejteni. Rádöbben, hogy van valaki, aki nem fogja egykönnyen elengedni. Vajon ha kiderül a rettenetes igazság, ezzel Avery is elindulhat a gyógyulás útján?
És Cam akkor is mellette marad majd, ha megtudja mi történt?
Vannak dolgok, amikért megéri harcolni...

Food for life
Food is our greatest ally for good health, but the question of what to eat has never seemed so complicated. Tim Spector has pioneered a science-based approach to nutrition, encouraging us to forget misleading notions of calorie counts or nutritional breakdowns. In Food for Life he draws on over a decade of cutting-edge scientific research, along with his own personal insights, to deliver a new and comprehensive guide to what we should all know about food today. Taking a wide-angle lens on everything from environmental impact and food fraud to allergies and deceptive labelling, Spector also shows us the many wondrous and surprising properties of everyday foods, which scientists are only just beginning to understand.
Empowering, practical, wide-ranging and filled with intriguing insights, Food for Life is nothing less than a new approach to how to eat - for our health and the health of the planet.
