A small, vulnerable, incorrigible ball of need, Silver's acceptance of Katie cracks open something inside of her: an unravelling begins.Fresh out of college and far from home, Katie is desperate to skirt the demands of adult life - especially because, as she promised her mother, the plan was to never grow up in the first place. Luckily, she has James: self-assured, generous, and seemingly happy to make decisions for them both.When they go on holiday to James's family's seaside home, Katie's attachment to Silver grows. Silver doesn't mind that Katie can't seem to get a job, hold her own at dinner parties, or make amends with her mother. Silver, who gets to misbehave spectacularly, be childish, be gross, and still get fed, seems to have the life Katie increasingly longs for. But as their bond intensifies, Katie's other relationships reach tipping points. Soon, Katie must come to terms with what she really wants, and what she might have to risk to get it.Delicately playful and unexpectedly heartfelt, Kitten is a sensitive reckoning with the allure of helplessness and the uncertainty of becoming yourself in a world that is as disorienting as it is full of hope and connection.
A Million Meet Cutes

So she is shocked and amazed when one day she has very own meet-cute - sadly, the guy is most definitely NOT The One.

Plus, she's becoming fed up of getting tangled in dog leads (even if the dog owner is extremely handsome) and her car breaking down (even if the recovery guy is extremely handsome). Even when she is on a date, she has another meet-cute with a different guy.
What does it all mean and is this the way to find the perfect guy, or have her beloved romcom movies been lying to her all this time?
A laugh-out-loud romcom perfect for fans of Emily Henry and Megan Quinn.

Dobro a zlo 21. století
Co je dobré a co zlé? Dokážeme být dobří ve špatné době? Nebo v nás zlo probouzí temnotu? A kde hledáme útěchu v těžkých časech? Marek Orko Vácha se zamýšlí nad tím, jak se chováme v krizových situacích, zda umíme pomáhat, pokud jsme postavení tváří tvář katastrofám, jak dobře se spí vůdcům, kteří vyvolávají války, nebo co může udělat každý člověk pro to, aby byl svět lepším místem pro život. V sedmi částech knihy se postupně věnuje otázkám spojeným s altruismem, vírou a jejím postavením v současném světě, poslání lékařů nebo kvalitě každodenního soužití lidí různých národností i vyznání v době, která není pro nikoho jednoduchá. Když rozebírá vlastnosti dobra a zla, konstatuje: „Zlo bere samo sebe velmi vážně. Diktátoři nejsou vtipní, nemají smysl pro sebeironii, mají svoje velké myšlenky, pro které neváhají nechat zemřít miliony lidí. To naopak dobro je jiskřivé, kreativní, roztančené, citlivé.“

Kadesh 1286 BC
An illustrated look at Ancient Egypt and one of the earliest recorded battles that put a stop to Ramesses II''s drive into Syria.In c. 1286 BC, Ramesses II was pharaoh and commander of the Egyptian army. He led an expedition northwards from the eastern delta, through Palestine, and aimed for the city of Kadesh, which was currently in the hands of the Hittites. What Ramesses did not expect was that the Hittites'' leader, King Muwatallis, was in the city, which made his plans much harder. Meeting in battle at the Orontes River in southern Syria, it was the largest clash of chariots ever seen. The Hittites proved to be formidable opponents, managing to slice through the second division of the Egyptian army with a targeted chariot attack. In the end, the Hittites were forced to retreat but the Egyptians also failed to capture Kadesh and had to withdraw out of Syria.In this detailed volume, Egyptologist Anthony Spalinger explores the history of the Egyptians and Hittites, looking at how they fought and how Kadesh came to be considered one of the most decisive battles of the ancient world. With stunning artwork, maps, diagrams and images of carvings from multiple temples, Ancient Egypt is brought to life, showcasing one of the earliest recorded set-piece battles.
