Saltwater


'A stunning journey through the world's oceans' -- Ben Robinson, author of Coastlines'A glorious exploration of everything marine' -- Madeleine Beekman, author of The Origin of Language'Immense and intimate, panoramic and poetic. Essential reading' -- James Bradley, author of Deep Water Praise for Sensational: 'Dazzling' -- Financial Times 'A delight' -- The Times 'A future classic' -- The Mail on Sunday'Infectiously enthusiastic' -- Sunday Times WE CAME FROM THE SEAFrom tidal estuaries to tropical reefs, saltwater has been central to evolution; the amniotic fluid of life itself. Vestiges of our salty origins can be found in the physiological makeup of land dwellers today, and marine chemistry still defines the boundaries of existence for most aquatic animals. But even as we rely upon the sea's life-giving properties, we have failed to protect it.Saltwater brings readers face to face with the secrets of the marine realm, revealing massive sperm whales, delicate dumbo octopuses, nightmarish viperfish, and even the ocean's own version of the northern lights: a shimmering bioluminescent display that illuminates the darkest fathoms.It examines humanity's eternal connection with the oceans, from ancient fishing traditions to the devastating legacy of industrial whaling. And it shows how today, even as the ocean bears the scars of overfishing, pollution, and climate change, this damage may yet be reversed though cutting-edge science and strategic conservation.Elegant, deeply researched, and ultimately galvanising, Saltwater is a paradigm-shifting look at how saltwater life shapes our world.

A Short Philosophy of Napping


What could be better than a nap to slow the frantic course of our pressure-filled lives, dominated by the cult of performance and the need to constantly outdo ourselves? What could be better, in our anxiety-inducing world, than cocooning yourself by falling discreetly asleep on the couch or in a hammock? "One ought not attempt to 'force' nature," Epicurus said long ago. Solet's not challenge the philosophers, let's learn to suspend time instead. Napping is a lifestyle, one that respects our natural rhythm and nurtures the best of what we have to offer. If he hadn't taken a nap in the shade of an apple tree, would Newton have discovered the law of gravity? This book is a wisdom-filled collection that reminds us to listen to the life lessons dispensed by nature and invites us to slow the maddening tempo of our lives down.

Forever Starts Tonight


"No one writes sizzling banter, epic yearning and heartfelt emotion like Karla Sorensen." ?Catherine Cowles, New York Times bestselling author It's no secret that I've been in love with Jax Cartwright for half my life. A terrible decision, really, and not just because he's my brother's best friend or he's ten years older than me. Thanks to an overprotective family, he's ignored me for years, but still, I can't get his grumpy a** out of my head. And in a wine-fueled, post-bad date funk, I make another terrible decision: show up at his cabin to ask why he's never given me a chance. The storm that got me stuck there overnight was a total fluke, but I'm no fool. While Jax is perfectly clear about not wanting a family or love or any of the happily-ever-afters I've dreamed of, what's the harm in asking for just one night? The worst thing he can say is no. He doesn't though, and I was saying yes, yes, yes a whole lot after that. Best. Decision. Ever. One night is enough to feel like I can move on, and we agree to let it be a secret kept safe between us. But you know what makes it hard to keep a one-night secret about my not-so-secret crush? A positive pregnancy test. Oh baby, things are about to get interesting. Forever Starts Tonight is the perfect blend of a sexy one night stand, age gap romance, yearning, rugged small-town charm, and heartwarming family shenanigans. Welcome to the Wilder family!

Things We Swore Wed Never Do


Set against long Texas summers filled with pinky promises and the bittersweet magic of growing up, The Things We Swore We'd Never Do, a new story from Jillian Dodd, is about losing your person and learning how to live a little louder in the silence they leave behind. Growing up one broken rule at a time. It started with a list. The things we swore we'd never do. Kiss boys. Lie to our parents. Wear push-up bras. We were nine years old and certain of everything. McKenna Moore was everything I wasn't?fearless, opinionated, and always one step ahead. I was the quiet one, never needing to be the center of anything. But standing next to her always made me feel braver. We spent summers at the lake, made pinky promises in the dark, and bottled our girlhood like fireflies in a jar. We thought we had forever. But growing up has a way of breaking things wide open. Of shattering the pieces you thought would always fit. Now the list is back?and her older brother, Callum, the boy who faded from our world as we grew up, wants me to finish it. He wants me to break every rule we swore we never would. Every crossed-out line, every broken rule, feels like a step toward something I'm not sure I'm ready for. But maybe becoming who you are means letting go of who you thought you'd always be.

Life in Fragments


A powerful and personal memoir that tells the real story behind the headlines of how two people got caught up in a struggle against Putin's regime - one that continues today.The photo of Alexander Litvinenko lying on his deathbed in November 2006, poisoned by polonium, caused shockwaves around the world. But how did it come to this? And why are the lessons he provided still important now, twenty years on? In Marina Litvinenko's compelling new memoir, A Life in Fragments, we find out exactly why and discover the inspirational personal story behind the public tragedy.Marina met the man who would change her life on her thirty-first birthday; she was a dancer while he was an agent in the Russian security services. They fell in love and soon had a son, Anatoly. But Russia in the 1990s was a difficult place in which to live a happy family life; soon, Alexander was uncovering corruption at the heart of the state in the aftermath of the communist era. His fearless investigations led to his arrest and imprisonment on false charges; eventually the Litvinenkos had to escape the country, seeking political asylum in the UK.Litvinenko remained an outspoken critic of Putin's regime, which could not be tolerated. His murder left Marina seeking justice for her husband, but she was obstructed every step of the way by Russia. Even the British government appeared reluctant to hold Russia to account, and it wasn't until 2016 that a public inquiry finally confirmed it had been a 'state sponsored murder'. Marina had won her battle, providing hope to all those who continue to fight to reveal the crimes of Putin's regime and to deliver justice for the victims.
