Seek The Traitor's Son
From Veronica Roth, the legendary author of the Divergent series, Seek the Traitor's Son is a dazzling, epic tale of war, fate and devastating love.
The daughter of a bounty hunter.
The knight sworn to protect her.
And the prophecy that destroys their lives . . .
Elegy Ahn did not ask for destiny to find her. She's a soldier defending her small country against a powerful enemy: the Talusar, who worship a Fever that brings death to everyone it touches . . . except those it resurrects, forever changed. Rava Vidar is a Talusar general with a reputation for cruelty and triumph in equal measure. And when Elegy and Rava first meet, it's to hear a prophecy that could apply to either of them.
It declares that either could carry their people to victory. But they won't know who will triumph - not until it's too late to change anything. And at the center of both of their fates is a man. A man who, Elegy is told, will bring her death. A man she'll fall in love with.
In one day, Elegy's old life is over. With the fate of nations hanging in the balance, she and Rava are destined to collide. And when they do, only one will be left standing. Elegy intends to make sure it's her.
An extraordinary epic begins.
Everyone's Seen My Tits
'Funny, forthright and illuminating' Grazia'Keeley Hazell is clever, thoughtful and very, very ambitious' Mail on SundayA moving, genuine, and hilarious collection of essays about fame, glamour, infamy, and the power of writing your own story, from Page 3 model turned writer Keeley Hazell. For much of her life, Keeley Hazell has been labelled and pigeonholed. Growing up in a poor working-class family made her a certain kind of person (the kind who scrounged for chicken and chips money and once set a car on fire). Becoming a topless model after winning the Sun newspaper's 'Page 3 Idol' competition made her a certain kind of person (one with big boobs and few thoughts, to hear anyone else tell it). And as glittery as being one of the UK's most successful glamour models may seem, Keeley's fairytale success quickly turned into a nightmare. After becoming a victim of revenge porn and a particularly disastrous interview with a high brow British newspaper, Keeley began re-examining her life. She learned about feminism, objectification, and systemic misogyny on a wonderful journey of personal growth, and with a flick of her hair, quit modelling, walked away from a fat pay check, and moved thousands of miles away from everything she had come to know. Reinventing herself as an actress and writer, she starred in award-winning short films, as well as horrors, dramas, and comedies before facing her most challenging job on the massive hit series Ted Lasso - rewriting what it means to be Keeley both on-screen and in real life. Everyone's Seen My Tits is a powerful, funny, high spirited essay collection. From growing up on a council estate and her tumultuous relationship with fame to overcoming adversity, finding feminism, and finding herself, these essays chronicle one woman's coming-of-age and coming into herself. A personal journey with universal appeal as girls worldwide continue to battle how they are perceived, who they really are, and what they can be.

Menopause and ADHD
Menopause and ADHD is your ultimate guide to understanding how your hormones may influence your ADHD – and it’s a two-way street: how your ADHD impacts how your perimenopause lands for you. This book will arm you with the facts, and help you to confidently advocate for your own health and wellbeing. Navigating menopause can be challenging for any woman, but for those with ADHD, the experience can feel like a bomb has gone off in your life. Health issues in all women are too often dismissed, misunderstood, or minimised by clinicians who label symptoms as anxiety or ‘just part of being a woman’. We are just starting to empower women to access the menopause support they deserve, but women with ADHD or other intersecting neurodivergence (often undiagnosed) are still woefully left behind in this arena. Helen Wall is a GP with years of experience advocating for women. MENOPAUSE AND ADHD will debunk myths, tackle systemic biases, and empower you to take charge of your well-being through this period of hormonal challenge. It’s time to be heard, be informed, and be your own best health advocate.

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. Spisovatelky 19. a 20. století tvořily navzdory společenskému očekávání, životním útrapám i žárlivým manželům. Oblíbená autorka Jana Poncarová představuje intimní portréty osmi spisovatelek, na které školní osnovy zapomněly: F. Háj, Felix Téver, Růžena Svobodová, Amálie Kutinová, Vlasta Javořická, Olga Barényi, Marie Majerová a Popelka Biliánová.

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...
Albion
The Brooke family are gathering in their eighteenth-century ancestral home - at the heart of a thousand acres of English countryside - to bury Philip: husband, father and the blinding sun around which they have all orbited for as long as they can remember.
They must grapple with their shared grief as well as their shared inheritance. Each of his children is adamant that their father has given them his blessing, and none are willing to back down, as dreams of rewilding the English countryside clash with a vision of a psychedelic haven for the super-rich.
But as they debate the future of the land, a stranger arrives bearing a truth that will fracture all the dreams on which they've built their lives.
The Given World
April brings spring surging with it, giving rise, among many in the village, to a comforting illusion that all is somehow still right with the world, and that nothing will ever change.
In the ancient Welm Valley, something is shifting: the river is behaving oddly, while the arrival of spring, with its familiar rhythms, is shadowed by an undercurrent of unease.
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.
The Good Eye
Men and women confront the limits of their perception as reality shifts around them, in this startlingly original debut short-story collection
A stone appears in a woman's pocket like a charm only to end up lodged in someone's throat. A psychic harnesses her talent for animal communication to extract a perfect revenge. A condescending artist throws a dinner party, where he discovers a painful and consequential truth.
In these twelve exquisite and uncanny stories, the world can change in an instant. The beautiful can suddenly become grotesque, the exalted disgraced, the genius an imposter. Ranging across the globe through the worlds of art, crime and fantasy, each character turns their gaze on themselves and on each other, to confront what they see with their good eye - and their bad.
Beginning to Live
A user's guide to the everyday challenges of living, which looks to philosophy to reframe the way we understand ourselves and our relationships
How can we find our own direction and purpose? When life feels too much, is it possible to free ourselves from the concerns that weigh us down? Whether you're in therapy or prefer to find your own way through life's struggles, pioneering therapist Emmy van Deurzen offers a lifeline for rebuilding trust in the world.
Beginning to Live is a practical invitation to step back and discover what really matters by considering each of the four key aspects of our experience in turn: physical, social, personal and spiritual.
Harnessing over fifty years' experience, this book is filled with wisdom and moving stories that show how to deal with dilemmas and difficulties of every kind, so that even when survival takes all you have, you can rekindle confidence in your own abilities and revitalize your capacity to relate to others. It is not about a quality of personality or character, which you either have or don't have, van Deurzen shows. It is about a way of being, which is available to each of us - enabling us all to find a more engaged way of living that is purposeful, deliberate and buoyant.
Your future is a work of art in progress. And it starts here.
