As together they fend off a rogue's gallery of ne'er-do-wells trying to claim the bounty the goblin represents, Fern may finally reconnect with the person she actually is when nothing seems inevitable . .

Daddy Issues


If you loved Problematic Summer Romance and Wild Card, you'll LOVE Daddy Issues - this sweet and spicy age-gap single dad romance is bound to be your next obsession! Sam doesn't take much interest in Nick, a surprisingly cute single dad, when he first moves in next door. After all, she's 26, working a dead-end waitressing job, navigating a situationship that's both toxic and intoxicating, and living in her mom's condo. She's too preoccupied with figuring out her life to seriously commit to anyone, let alone an ultra-dependable guy pushing forty. With just one thin wall separating their bedrooms, Sam finds that she can't stay away from Nick. Maybe it's how endearingly nerdy he is, his love of Star Trek the perfect complement to Sam's comic book obsession. Or maybe it's how practical he is, fixing shelves and leaking faucets with those distractingly large hands… But as Sam starts falling for Nick, she can't ignore how different their lives are. His world is stable, settled, and his daughter is right at the centre of it, while Sam still feels like everything is up in the air. She's so busy dealing with her quarter-life crisis - is she really ready to throw daddy issues into the mix, too?

Sense and Sensibility


One of six new delightful and collectible hardback editions from Penguin Classics, publishing to celebrate Jane Austen's 250th anniversary 'The more I know of the world, the more am I convinced that I shall never see a man whom I can really love. I require so much!' Marianne Dashwood wears her heart on her sleeve, and when she falls in love with the dashing but unsuitable John Willoughby she ignores her sister Elinor's warning that her impulsive behaviour leaves her open to gossip and innuendo. Meanwhile Elinor, always sensitive to social convention, is struggling to conceal her own romantic disappointment, even from those closest to her. Through their parallel experience of love - and its threatened loss - the sisters learn that sense must mix with sensibility if they are to find personal happiness in a society where status and money govern the rules of love.

I, Medusa

So when she catches the eye of the goddess Athena, who invites her to train as a priestess in her temple, Meddy leaps at the chance to see the world beyond her home. Flourishing in her role as Athena's favoured acolyte, all it takes is one fateful night to irrevocably alter the course of Meddy's promising future forever.

Exploding with rage, heartbreak and love, I, Medusa reimagines the iconic figure from Greek mythology as a young Black woman caught in the cross currents between her heart's deepest desires and the cruel, careless games the Olympian gods play.

Pozvání na popravu


„Rozsudek smrti byl v souladu se zákonem oznámen Cincinnatovi C. šeptem.“ V žádné jiné ze svých próz se Nabokov nepřiblížil literárnímu světu Franze Kafky tak jako v Pozvání na popravu. Zjitřené vnímání společenské látky se tu spojuje s pocitem hlubokého existenciálního traumatu, jež má obecný charakter a o to více promlouvá k současnému čtenáři. Mladý hrdina čeká na svou popravu, přičemž není zcela zřejmá ani povaha jeho skutečného provinění, ani bližší okolnosti chystané exekuce. V tomto svíravém rámci jde odsouzenci o jediné – vymezit se vůči netečnosti světa prostřednictvím vlastního psaní. Román pochází z Nabokovova „ruského“ období, tedy z doby, kdy autor již nežil ve své vlasti, ale byl součástí široké ruské diaspory v Evropě. Přestože se příběh odehrává ve fiktivním prostředí, odkaz k mašinérii stalinské hrůzovlády je nepopiratelný. Kniha je tak považována za stěžejní dílo ruské literatury 20. století. Román doprovází doslov literárního vědce Richarda Müllera.
