White Cat - The Curse Workers 1


Meet the Curse Workers - the fan favourite urban fantasy trilogy by global phenomenon Holly Black - now reborn in these unmissable new editions with stunning reimagined covers and updated texts never before published in the UK! Cassel grew up in a family of curse workers - people who can rewrite your emotions, your memories, your luck-with nothing more than a touch. It's the kind of magic that got outlawed generations ago. Everyone who has it is considered a criminal. But Cassel isn't like the rest of them. He hasn't got magic. That means he's always been an outsider - the only straight-laced kid in a crooked family. At least, that's what he believed, right up until three years ago, when he murdered the girl he loved, Lila, who was also heir to the Zacharov crime family. Now he's started sleepwalking, waking on rooftops, chasing a white cat through his dreams. The more he digs, the more his past begins to unravel. As Cassel begins to suspect he's part of a huge con game, he realises the only way to find out the truth is to outcon the conmen. Murder mystery meets contemporary fantasy in the cutthroat world of the Curse Workers, where a single touch can bring love - or death - and your dreams might be truer than your memories. Brimming with high-stakes deception, jaw-dropping twists, and a dash of romance, this beloved series is perfect for fans of Six of Crows by Leigh Bardugo and Vicious by V. E. Schwab.

The Will to Live


An unforgettable memoir about love, loss, resilience, the power of community and most importantly, hope. This inspirational work is something that anyone concerned about the mental health of a friend, loved one, or family member should read and share. John Trautwein’s life seemed perfect. An ex-Boston Red Sox player turned corporate executive, he had a loving marriage with four beautiful children. This all changed in October 2010 when his 15-year-old son Will died by suicide. John thought his life had ended, too. What he eventually discovered instead was that even in the midst of unimaginable grief, there is a way forward—through faith, family, friendship, and the healing power of helping others. With raw honesty and unwavering compassion, John shares how his darkest days revealed a new calling: to spread awareness about mental health, to break the silence around depression, and to deliver hope to those who need it most. Drawing on his personal and professional experience, and as co-founder, with his wife Susie, of the nonprofit The Will to Live Foundation, John turns a tragedy into a positive and successful source of hope through his “Life Teammates” concept and programs. Through inspirational stories, he demonstrates our ability to improve our own will to live by delivering hope to one another. He reveals to us how to recognize the subtle and not-so-subtle signs of mental illness. His story emphasizes that love, not time, is what truly mends the heart. The Will to Live offers both inspiration and practical insight into how we can be there for each other in times of need. It is a story about courage. About community. About choosing to speak up, to reach out, to listen, and to remind each other that it’s always okay to not be okay.

Notes on Being a Man


Businessman, author, professor, and podcaster Scott Galloway offers a path forward for men and parents of boys. The lack of attention to the growing masculinity crisis has created a void which is now being dangerously filled by the Manosphere and misogyny. Male suicide rates are sky high; employment rates are low and mental health and relationship issues are impossible to ignore. This is not just a male issue: it is affecting society as a whole.Scott Galloway has been sounding the alarm on this issue for years. In Notes on Being a Man, Galloway explores what it means to be a man today, and provides a roadmap for healthy masculinity and mental strength. He shares his own story from boyhood to manhood. In exploring issues like childhood, depression, anger, pressure, money and relationships, he shares the sometimes funny, often painful, lessons he learned along the way. With unflinching honesty, Scott Galloway maps out an enriching, inspiring operator’s manual for being a man today. BOYS AND MEN ARE IN CRISIS. SCOTT GALLOWAY HAS A PATH FORWARD. NOTES FOR BEING A MAN:Being a good dad means being good to women. Action absorbs anxiety. Find what you’re good at and follow your talent. Get out of the house. Take risk and be willing to feel like an imposter. This is a key to professional success, and masculinity. Acknowledge your blessings, and create opportunities for others. Be of surplus value.Be kind.

Marco Polo - Berlin


Szeretnél három operaház közül választani, parkban szóló zenére spontán táncra perdülni, angolul rendelni vietnami kávét vagy Trabantba ülni a Reichstag előtt? Akkor irány Berlin! A Marco Polo sorozat legújabb kötete Németország nemzetközi és sokoldalú fővárosába kalauzol el. A Best of... zöld és méltányos (pl. Zéró hulladék), olcsó (pl. A fal nyomában), gyerekeknek való (pl. Buli a múzeumban) és tipikus ajánlatok (pl. Quadriga tizenkét oszlopon) után megismertet a könyv a város sajátosságaival, majd az egyes negyedekkel: Mitte történelemmel terhes, a császári palotától a sztálini sugárútig. Tiergarten a kormányzati negyed, bevásárlóutcák és néhány kocogóval. Prenzlauer Berg/Friedrichshainban menő berliniek élnek a falmaradványok árnyékában. Kreuzbergben a punk és a polgári lét találkozik zsidó hagyományok és török hétköznapok között. Charlottenburg/Wilmersdorf a notórius bevásárlók, az ínyencek, a kultúra iránt érdeklődők és a sportkedvelők negyede. A sorozatra jellemző élménytúrák Berlinbe végigvisznek az egykori fal mentén, történelmi sétára hívnak Spandauba, kicsábítanak biciklivel a zöldbe és hajózásra invitálnak a cityn keresztül. Fedezd fel Marco Polóval a nagy múltú, modern és dinamikus Berlint!

World's Edge


James Sallis’ collection of five novellas. 'James Sallis is a superb writer ' - TimesJames Sallis’ World’s Edge presents five masterful novellas—Dayenu, Carriers, Settlers, Allotments, and Reconstruction—exploring fractured societies, human resilience, and the fragile intersections of morality and survival. Sallis’s prose, as sharp as it is evocative, captures the nuances of his dystopian and near-future settings, resonating with themes of dislocation and identity. Widely regarded as a pivotal voice in contemporary US fiction, Sallis’s work aligns with literary giants such as Cormac McCarthy and Denis Johnson, weaving the poetic bleakness of the former with the incisive character studies of the latter. These stories draw readers into a world both intimate and unyielding, where existential questions lurk beneath stark, elegant narratives.

Maybe Marilyn


What if, on the night of August 5, 1962, Marilyn Monroe didn’t die? What if she got away? Because all she ever dreamed of was to disappear and have a child. Marilyn Monroe would have turned 100 on June 1, 2026, and the world is preparing for a massive centennial celebration with official festivals and events focusing on her enduring impact on film, fashion, and culture. And then there’s Lois Cahall’s new novel...Maybe Marilyn... Marilyn Monroe’s housekeeper, Eunice Murray, and her psychiatrist, Dr. Ralph Greenson, were supposedly the only two people to ever see her dead. Five hours elapsed between the time they found Marilyn’s body and the authorities were contacted. These facts beg the question: Why was the house rearranged, phone records seized, and evidence destroyed? Was her suicide stage? et in 2019, this is a novel about Marilyn Monroe the survivor instead of Marilyn Monroe the victim. When two young reporters get the tip of a lifetime, they go on an elusive search to find her—and learn a thing or two about history in the process. Whether they find Marilyn or not remains to be seen, but what they do find is her granddaughter—alive and well—living up on Cape Cod. Biographers have long claimed that there is a world of devoted fans who hunger to bring their idol back to life. Their hunger has never waned. Nor have the flawed reports.… #MarilynLives
