Paper Hearts
A pop princess with her career in ruins is forced into a fake PR relationship with Hollywood actor, Grayson, to save her image. Except her new fake boyfriend is less than charming, and she seeks companionship elsewhere. She ends up hiring an escort, convinced losing her virginity is the way to elicit a sexy spark into her music, which the industry desperately wants from her. Except the escort, Taio, isn't interested in rushing her first time. Instead, they build a friendship and strike up a bedroom lessons arrangement. When they are caught by the paparazzi spending time together after hours, she's forced to feed out a lie to the tabloids that Taio is her bodyguard. With a new male threat prevalent, Grayson begins to show Charlie attention (out of competitiveness), and Taio, who has been hurt before and is convinced he'll never settle down and leave escorting. Now Charlie is caught in a bizarre fake love-triangle while trying to revive her dwindling music career, doing her best to figure out what an actual happily ever after looks like and whether that might be off-stage.
A Room of One's Own
A Room of One’s Own is an American classic that has been inspiring readers since its initial publication in 1929. Based on two lectures that Woolf delivered at the University of Cambridge, this collection of extended essays highlights the importance of education and independence for aspiring writers. Woolf calls for the inclusion of more female voices in the literary canon, and outlines the steps needed for more women to gain access to writing careers. Still relevant to this day, readers of all kinds will take inspiration from Woolf’s commitment to creating inclusion in the creative space, and her dedication to creating art despite those who would deny her. With a new foreword by a modern author, readers will gain insight into the ways that Virginia Woolfe’s teachings still influence modern creatives.
Soft Core
Plunged into the swirling underworld of beautiful women, fast cash, ungodly hours, and strangers' secrets, Baby's grip on reality begins to loosen. She is sure she can handle it-until one autumn morning when Dino disappears without a trace. Thus begins a nocturnal quest for the one she still loves-through the misty hills of San Francisco; at dive bars and bus stops; at the BDSM dungeon where she takes a part-time gig. A brutally funny, propulsive story of power, fantasy, love, and loss, Brittany Newell's Soft Core is an ode to the heartbroken and unhinged, to those whose appetites lead them astray. It is a hallucinogenic romp about a girl coming undone, whose longing for friendship, romance, and revenge will take her over the edge and back again.
The Snowbirds
Kim and Grant are at a turning point. A couple for thirty years, their 'separate but together' partnership is running up against the realities of late middle age: Grant’s mother has died, the college where he taught philosophy was shuttered, and their twin girls are grown and gone. Escaping the bitter cold of a Midwestern winter for the hot desert sun of Palm Springs seems as good a solution as any to the more intractable problems they face. When they arrive at Le Desert, a quirky condo community where everyone knows everyone’s business, Kim immediately embraces the opportunity to make new friends and explore a more adventurous side of her personality. Meanwhile, Grant struggles to find his footing in this unfamiliar landscape, leaving Kim to wonder if their relationship can survive the snowbird season. But when Grant goes missing on a hike in the Palm Springs mountains, Kim is forced to consider two terrifying outcomes: either Grant is truly lost, or this time, he’s really left her. Is it ever too late to become the person we wanted to be—and is there still time to change into someone better? The exhilarating, but often confusing transitions of midlife are pitched against the promise and glamour of Palm Springs in this tender, honest story of what it takes to commit to someone for a lifetime. With compassion and humour, Clancy explores the redemptive power of finding ourselves, and of being found.

Murder Will Out
Come for the memories. Stay for the murder... Little North Island, off the coast of Maine, is so beautiful it could be a postcard. Organist Willow Stone cherishes her memories of childhood summers spent on the island with her godmother Sue... even though her visits ended abruptly, and she hasn't seen or heard from her godmother in over fifteen years. Until a letter from Sue—and word of Sue’s death—brings Willow back to the picturesque island. The islanders rarely mention Sue without also bringing up Cameron House, and the controversy around Sue’s unexpected inheritance of the sprawling mansion. When Willow overhears someone threatening the next heir to the property, she starts to question whether Sue’s death was really an accident, and can’t help but wonder whether someone on this sleepy island is willing to stop at nothing—even murder—to claim Cameron House for their own. Through Willow’s eyes, as well as those of others on the island, a mystery unfolds that keeps drawing Willow back to Cameron House and the very real ghosts that walk its corridors.
Notes from a Regicide
When your parents die, you find out who they really were. Griffon Keming’s second parents saved him from his abusive family. They taught him how to be trans, paid for his transition, and tried to love him as best they could. But Griffon’s new parents had troubles of their own – both were deeply scarred by the lives they lived before Griffon, the struggles they faced to become themselves, and the failed revolution that drove them from their homeland. When they died, they left an unfillable hole in his heart. Griffon’s best clue to his parents’ lives is in his father’s journal, written from a jail cell while he awaited execution. Stained with blood, grief, and tears, these pages struggle to contain the love story of two artists on fire. With the journal in hand, Griffon hopes to pin down his relationship to these wonderful and strange people for whom time always seemed to be running out. In Notes from a Regicide, a trans family saga set in a far-off, familiar future, Isaac Fellman goes beyond the concept of found family to examine how deeply we can be healed and hurt by those we choose to love.
A Killing Cold

Six months later, he’s brought her to Idlewood, his family’s isolated winter retreat, to win over his skeptical relatives. Stay away from Connor Dalton. Theo has tried to ignore the threatening messages on her phone, but she can’t ignore the footprints in the snow outside the cabin window or the strange sense of familiarity she has about this place. Then, in a disused cabin, Theo finds something impossible: a photo of herself as a child. A photo taken at Idlewood. I’ve been here before. Theo has almost no recollection of her earliest years, but now she begins to piece together the fragments of her memories. Someone here has a shocking secret that they will do anything to keep hidden, and Theo is in terrible danger. Because the Daltons do not lose, and discovering what happened at Idlewood may cost Theo everything.
Druhý suvenýr
Zdánlivě obyčejná sebevražda řadového úředníka v pražské vile představuje teprve začátek napínavého detektivního příběhu. Když se totiž policejní inspektor Kafka ponoří do vyšetřování, odhalí spojitost s legendami opředenou smrtí Jana Masaryka.
Mohlo se jednat o sebevraždu, nebo byl oblíbený ministr zahraničí zavražděn? Jak vypadaly jeho poslední dny a hodiny? A co by vlastně mohlo být tím druhým suvenýrem, který by snad konečně mohl odhalit pravdu o Masarykově smrti? Další úmrtí na sebe nenechají dlouho čekat. Každá nová stopa rozmazává hranici mezi pravdou a klamem.
Druhý suvenýr je strhující literární thriller, který spojuje napětí, historii a neúnavnou snahu o dosažení spravedlnosti — vyjde pravda konečně najevo, nebo bude navždy pohřbena?

Brother Bronte
The year is 2038, and the formerly bustling town of Three Rivers, Texas, is a surreal wasteland. Under the authoritarian thumb of its tech industrialist mayor, Pablo Henry Crick, the town has outlawed reading and forced most of its mothers to work as indentured laborers at the Big Tex Fish Cannery, which poisons the atmosphere and lines Crick’s pockets. Scraping by in this godforsaken landscape are best friends Proserpina and Neftalí. One of Three Rivers’ last literate citizens, Neftalí hides and reads the books of the mysterious renegade author Jazzmin Monelle Rivas, whose last novel, Brother Brontë, is finally in Neftalí’s possession. But after a series of increasingly violent atrocities committed by Crick’s forces, Neftalí and Proserpina, with the help of a wounded Bengal tigress, three scheming triplets, and an underground network of rebel tías, rise up to reclaim their city—and in the process, unlock Rivas’s connection to Three Rivers itself. An adventure that only the acclaimed Fernando A. Flores could dream up, Brother Brontë is a mordant, gonzo romp through a ruined world that, in its dysfunction, tyranny, and disparity, feels uncannily like our own. With his most ambitious book yet, Flores once again bends what fiction can do, in the process crafting a moving and unforgettable story of perseverance.
Bradford Murders and Misdemeanours
Bradford in the century between 1850 and 1950 witnessed extraordinary growth and changes. Its wealth was based on the textile industry and the city became known as the ‘wool capital of the world’. It was a city of migrants, many from Ireland, and despite the efforts of philanthropic industrialists such as Titus Salt wealth and poverty often lived close to each other. The city was a breeding ground for crime and Bradford Borough Police Force was formed in the 1840s, dealing with the ‘high crimes’ of murder and large scale robberies and frauds, to ‘low level’ crimes such as petty theft, vagrancy and loitering. Delving into original sources, court reports and newspaper archives, the authors also look at the effects of illegal gambling on crimes before the 1960 Betting & Gaming Act and the particular involvement of young people in crimes and their punishments.This collection of true life crime stories from the mid-nineteenth to the mid-twentieth centuries gives a vivid insight into life in Bradford in the past. This book will fascinate anyone with an interest in the history of crime as well as those who want to know more about the history of Bradford.
Ilaria
One afternoon in May, 8-year-old Ilaria gets into the car with her father, expecting to go out to dinner with her mother and sister. Instead, she is taken across the border, on a whirlwind road trip around Italy with her father, from Trieste to Rome and Sicily, sleeping in roadside hotels and singing to the radio. But Ilaria's father is unpredictable, and she never knows which version of him she will get: charming and funny, or volatile and drunk. Torn between her life in Geneva with her mother and this strange shifting adventure on the road, Ilaria doesn't know who to side with in her parents' acrimonious separation. Throughout her travels, Ilaria meets a rag-tag cast of characters, learns how to light a cigarette, discovers when is best to keep quiet around her father, and finds comfort in her lovable teddy bear Birillo. Ilaria's voice is singular and powerful. Based on the author's own experience, this deeply moving novel captures the blurred lines between love and harm, memory and reality, fear and wonder. Ilaria is a haunting, intimate coming of age story about a girl who is forced to grow up too soon, and about the fragile moments of beauty she finds along the way.

Lily vyzbrojená rokmi skúseností zo zákazníckej podpory a dávkou sarkazmu si medzi nimi nájde svoje miesto. Keď stretne Bela, charizmatického generála démonov, vznikne medzi nimi silné puto.
