Lacná kniha Rem Koolhaas Elements of Architecture (-70%)
"A resource that can be revisited over and over again, one that will arm the current and future designers of our built world with the knowledge they'll need to address the issues they have yet to even confront."-ArchDailyArchitecture is a compelling mixture of stability and flux. In its solid forms, time and space collide, amalgamating distant influences, elements that have been around for over 5,000 years and others that were (re-)invented yesterday.Elements of Architecture focuses on the fragments of the rich and complex architectural collage. Window, facade, balcony, corridor, fireplace, stair, escalator, elevator: The book seeks to excavate the micro-narratives of building detail. The result is no single history, but rather the web of origins, contaminations, similarities, and differences in architectural evolution, including the influence of technological advances, climactic adaptation, political calculation, economic contexts, regulatory requirements, and new digital opportunities.Derived, updated, and expanded from Koolhaas' exhaustive and much-lauded exhibition at the 2014 Venice Architecture Biennale, this is an essential toolkit to understanding the pieces, parts, and fundamentals that comprise structure around the globe. Designed by Irma Boom and based on research from the Harvard Graduate School of Design, the 2,600-page monograph contains essays from Rem Koolhaas, Stephan Trueby, Manfredo di Robilant, and Jeffrey Inaba; interviews with Werner Sobek and Tony Fadell (of Nest); and an exclusive photo essay by Wolfgang Tillmans.

Nechcená influencerka
V roku 2016 Bella získala 75-tisíc followerov zo dňa na deň a stovky lajkov za minútu. Onedlho zarábala tisíce libier za to, že ukázala návod, ako upiecť tortu, a vymetala tie najviac opulentné párty pre influencerov. Emotikony ako reakcie na jej príspevky lietali vľavo, vpravo aj v strede. Ale byť nonstop zahltená notifikáciami si vyžiada svoju daň. Bella síce v online svete hviezdila, ale jej zdravie sa v offline realite rúcalo. Skutočný príbeh Nechcená Influencerka, ktorý vychádza v slovenskom preklade, je vtipný, úprimný a odvážny zároveň. Opisuje neisté balansovanie medzi online a offline svetom, ktoré sa týka takmer každého z nás.
Myslela som si, že môžem byť influencerkou bez toho, aby som naozaj bola influencerkou.
Myslela som si, že môžem mať veľa sledovateľov bez toho, aby som ich potrebovala.
Myslela som si, že môj účet bude zarábať bez toho, aby som sa zapredala.
Myslela som si, že som iná, že nie som ako ostatné dievčatá.
Bella Youngerová je spisovateľka, komička a senzácia sociálnych médií, kde vystupuje ako jej alter ego Deliciously Stella. Magazín Glamour ju zaradil medzi top 8 ženských komičiek a Evening Standard ju dvakrát zahrnul do skupiny najvplyvnejších londýnskych influencerov.
Glow
'It scares me - what I did that night. Because I don't know my own power... But that's been the problem all along, hasn't it?'
My life has been shaped and controlled by the greed of others, but that ends now. I have burned down the court of King Midas and from those flames, I will rise and wield my own power. The problem is, when you turn against a King - everyone turns against you. But with Slade by my side we will fight the monarchs that come for us. And if we need to become the villains, then so be it. Because as long as I live in this world, I won't be used again. I must be strong. I must be undefeatable. I will shine like the sun - and blind our enemies...
Lacná kniha Diary (-70%)
Diary takes the form of a 'coma diary' kept by one Misty Tracy Wilmot as her husband lies senseless in hospital after a suicide attempt. Once she was an art student dreaming of creativity and freedom, now, after marrying Peter at art school and being brought back to once quaint, now tourist-overrun Waytansea Island, she's been reduced to the condition of a resort hotel maid. Peter, it turns out, has been hiding rooms in houses he's refurbished and scrawling vile messages all over the walls. Angry homeowners are suing, and Misty's dreams of artistic greatness are in ashes. But then, as if possessed by the spirit of Maura Kinkaid, a fabled Waytansea artist of the nineteenth century, Misty begins painting again, compulsively. The canvases are taken away by her mother-in-law and her doctor, who seem to have a plan for Misty - and for all those annoying tourists...

Every Last Word
A New York Times Best Seller If you could read my mind, you wouldn't be smiling. Samantha McAllister looks just like the rest of the popular girls in her junior class. But hidden beneath the straightened hair and expertly applied makeup is a secret that her friends would never understand: Sam has Purely-Obsessional OCD and is consumed by a stream of dark thoughts and worries that she can't turn off. Second-guessing every move, thought, and word makes daily life a struggle, and it doesn't help that her lifelong friends will turn toxic at the first sign of a wrong outfit, wrong lunch, or wrong crush. Yet Sam knows she'd be truly crazy to leave the protection of the most popular girls in school. So when Sam meets Caroline, she has to keep her new friend with a refreshing sense of humor and no style a secret, right up there with Sam's weekly visits to her psychiatrist. Caroline introduces Sam to Poet's Corner, a hidden room and a tight-knit group of misfits who have been ignored by the school at large. Sam is drawn to them immediately, especially a guitar-playing guy with a talent for verse, and starts to discover a whole new side of herself. Slowly, she begins to feel more "normal" than she ever has as part of the popular crowd . . . until she finds a new reason to question her sanity and all she holds dear. Praise for Every Last Word"Clueless meets Dead Poets Society with a whopping final twist." -Kirkus Reviews "This book is highly recommended-readers will connect with Sam, relating to her anxiety about her peers, and root for her throughout the book." -VOYA "A thoughtful romance with a strong message about self-acceptance, [this] sensitive novel boasts strong characterizations and conflicts that many teens will relate to. Eminently readable." -Booklist "A brilliant and moving story about finding your voice, the power of words, and true friendship. I couldn't put it down " -Elizabeth Eulberg, Author of The Lonely Hearts Club "Brilliant, brave, and beautiful." -Kathleen Caldwell, A Great Good Place for Books "A riveting story of love, true friendship, self-doubt and self-confidence, overcoming obstacles, and truly finding oneself." -Melanie Koss, Professor of Young Adult Literature, Northern Illinois University "Romantic, unpredictable, relatable, and so very enjoyable." -Arnold Shapiro, Oscar- and Emmy-winning Producer "Characters to love and a story to break your heart. Readers will want to turn page after page and read every last word. Then do it all over again." -Marianne Follis, Teen Librarian, Valley Ranch (Irving) Public Library

Lacná kniha Secret of Cricley Hall (-50%)
The Caleighs have had a terrible year...They need time and space, while they await the news they dread. Gabe has brought his wife, Eve, and daughters, Loren and Cally, down to Devon, to the peaceful seaside village of Hollow Bay. He can work and Eve and the kids can have some peace and quiet and perhaps they can try, as a family, to come to terms with what's happened to them...Crickley Hall is an unusually large house on the outskirts of the village at the bottom of Devil's Cleave, a massive tree-lined gorge - the stuff of local legend. A river flows past the front garden. It's perfect for them...if a bit gloomy. And Chester, their dog, seems really spooked at being away from home. And old houses do make sounds. And it's constantly cold. And even though they shut the cellar door every night, it's always open again in morning...The Secret of Crickley Hall" is James Herbert's finest novel to date. It explores the darker, more obtuse territories of evil and the supernatural. With brooding menace and rising tension, he masterfully and relentlessly draws the reader through to the ultimate revelation - one that will stay to chill the mind long after the book has been laid aside."

My jsme ti dobří
Co je Německu po Ukrajině? A jak je možné, že ztroskotaná dohoda s EU vyústila v jednu z nejnebezpečnějších krizí, jaké Evropa zažila v posledních desetiletích? Může za všechno Putin? Tahá skutečně za všechny nitky, nekompromisní a bezohledný? Nebo se pravda ukrývá ještě někde dále za tímto konfliktem, který v současnosti ohrožuje mír na celém jednom kontinentu, a skutečnost je mnohem komplexnější? A především: Jakou roli v tom všem hrají média, která hýří nekritickým zpravodajstvím a nedostatkem objektivních informací – stejně jako již předtím během finanční krize? Stala se média sama jednou z politických stran? Mathias Bröckers a Paul Schreyer nahlížejí za kulisy politického dramatu, které se změnilo už dávno pro mnohé ve smrtelnou tragédii.
Pokus pochopit motivy Ruska při ukrajinské krizi a získat si vhled do pohnutek a příčin Putinova jednání znamená v očích mnohých diskreditaci, a výraz „ti, kdo se snaží pochopit Putina (či Rusko)“ se stal takřka nadávkou a analýza jakéhokoli druhu na toto téma se rovná výsměchu. Jenomže tam, kde se už nesmí analyzovat, se ujímá vlády ideologie. Tam, kde je zakázáno chápat, vládne dogma. Proto se autoři znovu a výslovně prohlašují za ty, „kdo se snaží pochopit Putina“. Protože čím zlomyslněji a hitlerovštěji je Putin prezentován v médiích, tím důležitější je střízlivé a realistické porozumění – nikoli prostřednictvím psychologizující spekulace o jeho osobě, nikoli pomocí jednostranné ideologie, ale prostřednictvím co možná objektivního poznání situace.
Mathias Bröckers je volný novinář, který píše m. j. pro taz a pro Telepolis. Patří k zakladatelské generaci taz, potom pracoval jako autor m. j. pro Die Zeit a pro řadu rozhlasových stanic. Jeho díla Die Wiederentdeckung der Nutzpflanze Hanf (Znovuobjevení užitkové rostliny konopí) a Verschwörungen, Verschwörungstheorien und die Geheimnisse des 11. 9. (Spiknutí, spiklenecké teorie a tajemství dne 11. 9.) se staly mezinárodními bestsellery. Nejnověji od něho vyšly v nakladatelství Westend knihy 11. 9. - zehn Jahre danach (11. 9. – deset let poté) a JFK – Staatsstreich in Amerika (JFK – státní převrat v Americe).
Paul Schreyer je volný novinář, píšící mimo jiné pro magazín Telepolis a Global Research. Jeho poslední kniha Faktencheck 9/11 byla v odborných kruzích přijata s velkým zájmem („Patří k tomu nejlepšímu, co lze na německém knižním trhu objevit v oblasti kritických analýz na dané téma“, Dr. Dieter Deiseroth, soudce spolkového správního soudu).
Off-Campus 2: The Mistake

He's a player in more ways than one...

A sexy encounter with freshman Grace Ivers is just the distraction he needs, but when a thoughtless mistake pushes her away, Logan plans to spend his final year proving to her that he's worth a second chance.
Now he's going to need to up his game...
After a less than stellar freshman year, Grace is back at Briar University, older, wiser, and so over the arrogant hockey player she nearly handed her V-card to. She's not a charity case, and she's not the quiet butterfly she was when they first hooked up. If Logan expects her to roll over and beg like all his other puck bunnies, he can think again. He wants her back? He'll have to work for it. This time around, she'll be the one in the driver's seat... and she plans on driving him wild.

Alice Isn't Dead
From the creator of the wildly popular Welcome to Night Vale podcast comes a story about loving, about searching - and about the courage you need when you find the unexpected.
For fans of Stephen King, Serial, Twin Peaks and of course the eponymous number one iTunes podcast itself.
Keisha Lewis mourned the loss of her wife, Alice, who disappeared two years ago. There was a search, there was grief beyond what she thought was possible. There was a funeral.
But then Keisha began to see her wife, again and again, in the background of news reports from all over America.
Alice isn't dead. And she is showing up at the scene of every tragedy in the country.
Keisha shrugs off her old life and hits the road as a trucker - hoping on some level that travelling the length of the country will lead her to the person she loves.
What she finds are buried crimes and monsters (both human and unimaginable), government conspiracies, haunted service stations and a darkness far older than the highway system it lies beneath.
Inspired by the eponymous podcast, Alice Isn't Dead is a story about loving, about searching - and about the courage you need when what you find is terrifyingly unexpected.
Cast in the fluorescent lights of midnight diner-signs, this story is as big as the open road and as intimate as the darkness of a trucker's cab: perfect for fans of Stephen King, Serial, Twin Peaks and American Gods.
