A Thief to Die For
A stunning reimagining of Robin Hood, set in the same dystopian world woven with magic as The Enemy’s Daughter. An incredibly addictive YA enemies-to-lovers dystopian fantasy.
A soldier with magic. A thief with a secret. A spark that could burn their worlds down.
In a desolate, lawless land, Marian carries a dangerous secret. By day, she’s a high-ranking guard serving her father, the ruthless Commander who rules with an iron fist. By night, she becomes a whip-wielding thief, robbing the cowards she works with, to help those they mistreat.
That is, until Ryland catches her mid-raid. Revealing her identity could help him secure the deal he needs to save his homeland. Or, it could blow everything apart – if Marian has her way.
But Ryland holds his own secrets – untapped magic runs through his veins. A magic the Commander wants, along with invading Ryland’s distant settlement. Marian has her orders: win Ryland’s heart to betray him and his people.
And so begins a deadly dance of deception, stealing from the rich to give to the poor … and magic – the kind Ryland’s been waiting his whole life to wield.
Age of Security
What would you give up to feel safe?The security industry has captured our politics and our private lives. From rogue states to Ring doorbells, someone is always keeping a watchful eye - and we're paying for it. Anthropologist Ruben Andersson shows how Big Security rose to power, generating unprecedented profits, while failing to protect us and actively making us less safe.In this page-turning dispatch from security's frontlines - across the political right and left and global rich and poor - he tracks police chiefs in Swedish suburbs, embeds with migrants in Mexico, bunkers down with peacekeepers in Mali and dines with arms dealers in Paris.Everywhere, he finds that our shared obsession with security is an act of retreat: high walls, constant surveillance and punitive policies offer the illusion of control while fuelling paranoia and precarity. Every tracking app installed, border fortified, or emergency law passed makes us less free and less safe. Real safety is found an open, shared society with a strong social contract, freedom of expression and a sense of positive human purpose.We have given up so much in the name of safety and convenience.But once we see how security has trapped us, we can start to break free.
Progress
'A spirited skewering of the idea that things can only get better' The Guardian
'A new understanding of our past' Danny Dorling, author of Inequality and the 1%
________________________________
Progress is power. But our modern story of progress is a very dangerous fiction.
In the pursuit of progress, of growth and expansion, we have levelled cities, flattened mountains, charted the globe and ushered in a new geological epoch unique in our planet’s 4.5-billion-year history. The idea of progress has compelled societies toward exploration, invention, and grandiosity on one hand, and on the other, genocide, slavery, ecocide, and conquest: it is the root of our civilization’s success, as well as its looming demise.
Geographer Samuel Miller McDonald offers a radical new perspective on the myth upon which the modern world is built, illuminating its blood-strewn lineage and suggesting an urgent alternative. He traces the history of how human societies broke from their pasts, broke from their environments, and broke from longstanding egalitarian values that sustained them, supplanting these with one imperative to rule all others: progress.
If humanity is to have any chance of a future, then we must fundamentally change the way we think about one of our most basic political ideas. This landmark work shows us where to begin.

The 25th Hour
‘… a bracing guide to reclaiming your time by confronting the emotional habits that quietly give it away’ – Daniel H. Pink, #1 New York Times bestselling author of DRIVE and THE POWER OF REGRET
Are you craving extra time in your day, as well as the wisdom and self-awareness to use it joyfully and effectively?
In The 25th Hour, executive coach Neal Schore reveals how our emotional reactions eat away at our time and our energy – and shows us how to manage these responses to free up at least an hour each day. We need to address unproductive worrying, fear-based decision making, obsession over other people’s actions and behaviours – and, more than anything else, we need to get out of our own way.
This paradigm-shifting book offers a simple, practical approach to professional development, moving the focus beyond strategies for greater efficiency to what really costs us so much time and energy: our uncontrolled emotional responses.
Kiss Me Like You Mean It
‘The yearning was one for the record books’ SARRA MANNING
‘A world of small-town charm and irresistible romance’ LIZ TOMFORDE
‘The ideal balance of sweet and sexy’ MARIAN KEYES
‘As heartfelt as a Taylor Swift song and as cosy as a pumpkin spiced latte’ ZOË FOLBIGG
From the author of Under Your Spell comes a funny, cosy small-town romance about an accidental Vegas marriage, two people forced to fake a relationship and a town determined to play matchmaker. Perfect for fans of Laurie Gilmore, Sarah Adams and Lynn Painter.
What happens in Vegas, never stays in Vegas . . .
Waking up in a Las Vegas hotel room with her brother’s best friend isn’t exactly rule-follower Ophelia ‘Lee’ Turner-Jones’ finest moment. She’s spent the past year trying to forget it ever happened, until a surprise email from a wedding chapel lands in her inbox. Now Lee has no choice but to track Nico down . . . and tell him they’re married.
The last place she expects to find the man who has always lived on the wild side is a small Maine town full of lovable eccentrics. Breaking the news to him should be simple, but walking away proves impossible when she discovers that Nico needs a wife to save everything – and everyone – he holds dear.
Agreeing to play the role of happily married couple is risky enough. Doing it with the man she’s secretly loved for years, while the whole town throws themselves into the charade, might just end in disaster. Still, Lee can't help but wonder if their fake relationship could finally be the start of something real.
Lessons in Falling - Vonzalomból jeles - Hall Beck University 3.
Tudtam, hogy rossz ötlet. A szívem mégis hamarabb döntött, mint én.
Valentina Rhodes az egész eddigi életét azzal töltötte, hogy a saját szükségleteit háttérbe szorítva mindenki más kedvére tegyen. Amikor rájön, hogy a ragyogó egyetemi diplomája még mindig nem elég a családjának, érzi, hogy valamin változtatnia kell. A nyarat Oakport szigetén tölti a legjobb barátaival, és azt tervezi, hogy felforgatja az életét. Egy tiltott kívánságokból álló bakancslistával felvértezve végre készen áll felfedezni, hogy ki is ő valójában.
Aztán Caden Callahan keresztülhúzza a terveit.
A karizmatikus focikapitánynak nem lett volna szabad itt lennie, és végképp nem költözhetett volna be a lány szobájába. Valentina bebeszéli magának, hogy a korábban együtt töltött éjszaka csak egyszeri hiba volt. Egészen addig, amíg rá nem jön, hogy a srác egész nyáron a baráti társaságukkal lóg majd. Így minden lopott pillantás és véletlen érintés azt az egyetlen szabályt fenyegeti, ami tiltja a barátok közti randizást. Valentina tudja, hogy az lenne a bölcs dolog, ha elkerülné Cadent. A biztonságos választás. De ahogy végre először saját magát helyezi az előtérbe, szembesül a lehetetlen felvetéssel: talán az önmagáért való kiállás igazából nem is azt jelenti, hogy egyedül marad. A Hall Beck University-trilógia felejthetetlen fináléja!

The explosive inside account of the Beckham family saga by acclaimed journalist Alison Boshoff.
The first and definitive book about the Beckham family saga since the seismic revelations made by Brooklyn about his parents Sir David and Victoria Beckham written by acclaimed Daily Mail journalist Alison Boshoff, who has been following the family's story for decades and has unrivalled sources and information.
Full of eye-watering revelations from highly-placed sources, Boshoff uncovers what lies behind Brand Beckham. With unprecedented access, Boshoff unearths never-before-seen details and stories about the workings of the Beckham empire and the truth behind the fall out with now estranged son, Brooklyn and wife, Nicola Peltz.
Alison Boshoff is Editor-at-Large at the Daily Mail, where she has covered the world of showbusiness since 1997. Known for her sharp reporting and exceptional insider access, she has built an unrivalled network of contacts across the entertainment industry, breaking major stories and interviewing some of the most influential names in Hollywood and beyond.
Boshoff has had a front-row seat to the evolution of the Beckham brand, writing for The Daily Telegraph, The Sun and the Daily Mail from the beginnings of the Spice Girls and the first headlines of Sir David and Victoria's romance. In July 2022, just months after the Peltz-Beckham wedding, she broke the first reports of tensions within the family and has remained at the forefront of coverage ever since, including reporting on the alleged legal request for parental non-contact earlier this year.

Seven Rivers
'History at its most scintillating' Nicholas CraneRivers are the great natural arteries that run through our lives.We have navigated them, dammed them and worshipped at them. From the ancient ecosystems of Egypt to the sinking cities of Shanghai and London, what we do with our rivers tells us about who has power and what we value. Now, when a passion for wild swimming is flourishing but the Amazon is on fire and some of our major river systems are dying, it has never been clearer that rivers are intertwined with humanity at our best and our worst. Seven Rivers is story of the Nile, Danube, Niger, Mississippi, Ganges, Yangtze and the Thames. It is a story of imperial frontiers, alluvial gold, kidnappings, slavery, anticolonialism and creation myths. It is about those who've lived and died on these rivers and their endless capacity for invention: their lotus pools and hanging gardens, their gigantic canal systems and elaborate fishing rituals, their absolute powers and their sly rebellions. At its heart are the empire-builders of the Chinese dynasties, Romans and Hindus and their river gods, the Habsburgs and Ottomans, Mughal emperors, the people of the Niger from Mali's golden age to today, struggles of life and death on the Mississippi, and the dethroning of the British on the rivers of their unruly imperial subjects. This is the story of us, in seven rivers.
