The Cherry Blossom Boathouse


Welcome to Solace Springs... Dumped and fired in the same week, Londoner Sophie Bennett decides she's done playing it safe. After one too many glasses of wine, she launches a crowdfunding campaign called "Help a Boring Girl Buy a Bookshop." When it goes viral, she trades city chaos for cherry-blossom season in Solace Springs, Washington, buying a rundown boathouse bookshop and a chance to start over. Luke has spent years cultivating a quiet life by the lake, and the last thing he needs is an annoyingly attractive social media sensation disturbing his peace with her endless enthusiasm. Too bad fate - and the town residents - have other plans. When Luke gets roped into Sophie's renovation project, sparks fly and soon his carefully constructed walls begin to crack. And as Sophie's sudden fame threatens the tranquility of Solace Springs, both must decide if they're willing to risk it all for a second chance at love. The Cherry Blossom Boathouse is a sweet and spicy grumpy/sunshine romance, filled with small-town charm, quirky characters, and a guaranteed happily-ever-after.

The Ultimates


Explore the Stories Behind the LegendsThe 1990s and early 2000s were a time of intense change and experimentation for Marvel Comics. Out of this emerged The Ultimates—a comic that would have an explosive impact on Marvel and the broader pop culture landscape. Writer Mark Millar, with artists Bryan Hitch, Andrew Currie, and Paul Neary, reimagined the classic characters that made up Marvel’s premiere super hero team, the Avengers. Looking at them through a modern, post-9/11 lens, the creators treated the characters as super soldiers who reported to the US government. Illustrated with full-color art, Ted Adam’s entry in The Marvel Age of Comics takes readers through Marvel of the ‘90s: the Marvel Knights imprint, the creation of the Ultimate universe with Spider-Man and the X-Men, and finally the Ultimates themselves. With its unique blend of grounded realism and over-the-top action, The Ultimates ensured that comic books and pop culture would never be the same.

Andromeda


A myth rewritten. A name reclaimed. Blessed by the gods with unparalleled beauty, Andromeda lives a life of ease within her Aethiopian palace walls. Content with her sanctuary, the young princess has no concerns other than the royal expectations her parents have for her - until a single, fateful proclamation changes everything. When the queen defies the gods with a blasphemous claim, Poseidon, fearsome God of the Seas, delivers a deadly ultimatum that puts the queen's life in Andromeda's hands. Poseidon sends his loyal servant, the shape-shifting Ceto, to seal the princess's fate. But Ceto is not just a servant. With a sharp tongue and hardened heart, she has little interest in the princess's appearance - and even less in the games of gods. Yet an undeniable tension begins to bloom between them, and both quickly realise Andromeda's beauty is not only a gift, but a weapon to wield. As Poseidon's judgement draws ever closer, the two women find themselves pulled into something far more passionate - and dangerous - than either could have predicted...

A woman falls while out walking and hopes to be found before nightfall; a doctor realises, too late, that he has long underestimated his wife; across the village, people are plagued by the same vast and unsettling dream. And alone in a converted priory, overlooking watermeadows unchanged for centuries, Clare Grey receives news which will force her to reconsider her family's past and the fresh weight of her solitary existence.

Ženy slova


Není to proto, že by ženy nepsaly. Aby stvořily díla, která si stále zaslouží pozornost, musely odložit vařečky a vystoupit z rolí manželek a matek.

Háj, Felix Téver, Růžena Svobodová, Amálie Kutinová, Vlasta Javořická, Olga Barényi, Marie Majerová a Popelka Biliánová.

SLANT


'A heartfelt celebration of all kinds of queer love' - Alice Linehan, Gay Community News A ground-breaking Irish lesbian love story, set across the decades from the 1980s AIDS crisis to the 2015 marriage referendum. Ro McCarthy, single in her fifties and working a quiet job, is sustained by her love of books and her deep friendships. Although she still doesn’t approve of marriage – not even for the straights – she is canvassing for yes in the 2015 marriage equality referendum. But, as the ghosts of her activist past join her on the campaign trail and her eagerness to confront a familiar discrimination turns to obsession and fury, Ro must finally face the long-buried trauma and loss of her youth. Thirty years earlier, Ro is a young Cork woman living her best life in Boston, undocumented and working multiple jobs, making life-long friends, and falling in love with Jenny. Soon, however, the young gay men who have become Ro’s new family – from Ireland and elsewhere – begin to die. Shocked and grieving, she finds purpose in AIDS activism and a community that is loving and living against all odds. In the wake of this macabre heyday which Ro just about survives, her charged entanglement with Jenny will bear witness to the resistance and survival of an invisible generation of warriors. Slant is a headbutt to the heart, told from within a protective community, that will reveal and celebrate all the kinds of love needed to sustain a life.
