A bosszú Pradát visel - Az ördög visszatér
AZ ÖRDÖG PRADÁT VISEL FOLYTATÁSA!
VISSZAJÖTT...
ÉS ÖRDÖGIBB, MINT VALAHA...
Amióta otthagyta a Runway magazinnál az állását, ,,amelyért lányok milliói az életüket is odaadnák", Andyvel igazán jól bánt az élet. Jelenleg, tíz év elteltével az esküvőjére készül, és a saját, sikeres magazinját szerkeszti.
De akkor miért nem bír aludni az esküvő előtti éjszakán? Csak ideges lenne, vagy komoly kételyei vannak? És miért kell örökösen a volt főnökére, Mirandára - vagyis az Ördögre - gondolnia?
Nagyon úgy tűnik, hogy Andy erőfeszítései, amelyekkel az új áloméletet építgette magának, egyenesen odavezették az Ördög útjába, aki bosszúra szomjazik...
MERT A VISSZAVÁGÓ SOSE MEGY KI A DIVATBÓL!
Aký krásny obrázok
Príbeh o zrade, ktorú rodina odmietla vidieť.
Andrea má štyri a pol roka, keď ju jej otec David po prvýkrát kúpe. Hoci je ešte veľmi malá, cíti, že na spôsobe, akým sa jej dotýka, je niečo nesprávne. Keď ich v kúpeľni prichytí matka Marlene, zrúti sa na zem a po prebudení zistí, že oslepla. Jej hysterická slepota vyvolaná šokom trvá len niekoľko týždňov. Vedomá slepota voči pravde však celé desaťročia.
Andrea vyrastá v tieni nevypovedaného, vyštuduje ošetrovateľstvo a neskôr právo, vybuduje si úspešnú kariéru a naučí sa prežívať vo svete zmarených ilúzií. No vo veku tridsaťtri rokov spustí jeden nechcený dotyk v preplnenom metre lavínu spomienok, ktoré roky držala pod zámkom.
Aký krásny obrázok je silná a bolestivo úprimná memoárová výpoveď o zrade, ktorú rodina odmietla vidieť, a o dlhom, náročnom procese uzdravenia. Vhodná pre fanúšikov bestsellerov Som rada, že mama zomrela (Jennette McCurdy) a Sklený zámok (Jeannette Wallsová).
Az ördög Pradát visel
Andrea Sachs friss diplomásként olyan állást kap, ,,amelyért lányok milliói az életüket is odaadnák". A Runway divatlap főszerkesztője, Miranda Priestly asszisztenseként egy számára teljesen új világban találja magát, ahol csakis Pradát, Versacét és Armanit hordanak. A nők elképesztően ápoltak és tűsarkakon tipegnek, a férfiak pedig izmosak és elbűvölők. De Miranda mindnyájukat képes hisztérikus kisgyermekké változtatni.
Andrea megpróbál alkalmazkodni és megfelelni. Zokszó nélkül és legjobb tudása szerint teljesíti Miranda minden óhaját. Megszerzi a még meg sem jelent legújabb Harry Potter regényt, és különgéppel elküldi Párizsba, hogy Miranda lányai elsőként olvashassák. Felkutatja a közelebbről meg nem nevezett régiségkereskedést Manhattanben, ahol Miranda látott egy jópofa tálalót. Pontosan azon a hőmérsékleten tálalja Miranda ebédjét az irodában, ahogy a főnökasszony megköveteli. És szinte éjjel-nappal csörög a telefonja, mert Mirandának minden percben újabb és újabb lehetetlen kívánsága támad.
De Andrea mindent elvisel, mert egyetlen cél lebeg a szeme előtt: ha kibír egy évet Miranda mellett, az ő ajánlásával utána akármelyik szabadon választott hetilapnál vezető beosztásban dolgozhat. Ám egy idő után Andrea kezd rádöbbenni, hogy a munka, ,,amelyért lányok milliói az életüket is odaadnák", őt akár meg is ölheti.
A Short Stay in Hell
A man is cast by an unfamiliar God into a vast, incomprehensible Hell - a labyrinth library of books containing the stories of every life ever lived.
His only way out is to find the single book that tells his own story. But along the seemingly infinite shelves lies every possible combination of letters. Trapped within this maze of meaninglessness, the absurdity of existence becomes impossible to ignore.
A life-changing, existential novella, Steven L. Peck's modern classic explores a subversive vision of eternity, taking the reader on a journey through the afterlife of a world where everything everyone believed in turns out to be wrong.

John of John
Out of money and with little to show for his art school education, John-Calum Macleod takes the ferry home to the island of Harris to find that not much has changed except for him. In the windswept croft where he grew up, Cal resumes his old life, caught between the two poles of his childhood: his father John, a sheep farmer, weaver, and pillar of their local Presbyterian church, and his Glaswegian grandmother Ella, who has kept a faltering peace with her son-in-law for decades.
While Cal wonders if any lonely men might be found on the barren hillsides of home, John is dismayed by his son’s long hair and how he seems unwilling to be Saved. As the seasons pass, everything is poised to change as the threads holding together the fragile community become increasingly entangled.
John of John is the heartbreaking story of a young man’s return home and how the bonds of family life are torn by the weight of expectation. It confirms Douglas Stuart as one of the great British writers at work today.

A Dark and Wild Wood
'[Lemon] is a poet with knives for teeth' —Roshani Chokshi 'Reads like a grimoire for overcoming' —Hannah Whitten 'A gorgeously gothic fairy tale' —Ava Reid I must warn you first: This tale is not a romance. Ever since she was a child, Salomé has been plagued by visions of spirits and dangerous powers she can’t control. After watching her foster mother burn as a witch, she and her beloved sister Rochelle are raised together in a convent, a grim and dreary existence. Until one day, Rochelle vanishes. Determined to find a way to save her, Salomé runs: first to a brothel, and then, after a terrible accident, away from the village and into the woods. Deep amongst the trees of the wild Black Forest, she comes face-to-face with Lord Death. Rather than taking her life, he brings her to his home at the heart of the woods, a strange manor full of locked rooms and mysterious corridors, crumbling one moment, magnificent the next. He promises to make her his apprentice and teach her how to harness her mind and magic. His words are as seductive as his presence – but should one trust Death? A swirling mirage of dark fairy tale, gothic romance, and historical fantasy, A Dark and Wild Wood is a novel best devoured all at once. But proceed with caution, as everything is not what it seems… Inspired by the tale of Bluebeard, A Dark and Wild Wood is the lush and atmospheric story of a maiden with dark magic who becomes the apprentice to Lord Death – for a price. Perfect for fans of Juniper and Thorn and The Year of the Witching.

Witness Protection
Jon Tremaine has lived in hiding for years--will coming out of the shadows to help a friend be too great a risk? Perfect for fans of John Grisham and Charles Martin, Witness Protection is a legal drama with a deep undercurrent of faith. All is finally good. Jon Tremaine has created a new life in Brunswick, Georgia, as part of the Federal Witness Protection program after testifying against the former drug cartel he was involved with. Only his wife, Sarah, and a handler with the US Marshal's office know his true identity, and he is now the manager of a large commercial tree farm with a baby on the way. But when one of Jon's employees is arrested for allegedly smuggling drugs into the United States, he goes against his better judgment and inserts himself in the middle of the case, believing the man is an unsuspecting mole manipulated by sophisticated drug dealers. Kelli Quinn, a highly skilled litigator with an Atlanta law firm, has moved to Brunswick to work with her best friend from law school, hoping to rebuild her life after a painful divorce. She and her two children find a temporary home with her aunt Carly, a woman whose great faith is making an impression on her new houseguests. For the first time in a very long while, Kelli sees a future where she can find balance between the job she loves and the family she loves even more. New to the firm and in need of clients, Kelli agrees to represent Jon's employee.

As danger closes in and past sins resurface, Whitlow expertly weaves suspense with grace, showing how even the safest hiding place can't protect the heart from truth.

The Elements
From bestselling author John Boyne comes a gripping and profound exploration of responsibility, guilt, blame, trauma and our capacity for redemption.
