Legend of Exorcism: Tianbao Fuyao Lu (Novel) Vol. 5
THE SHIFTING SANDS OF TIME
As the capital of Chang’an prepares for a grand celebration, An Lushan and his henchmen plot to wreak havoc within the city. In their clutches is Mergen, who has surrendered his heart to the heavenly demon in order to discover his plans. At night, Lu Xu walks in his dreams, the two becoming more deeply entwined than either bargained for.
Li Jinglong believes the exorcists can stop An Lushan—and perhaps even strike down the black jiao Xie Yu, a far greater threat to the Divine Land. But when the mission unravels, Li Jinglong will put everything on the line to protect Hongjun from the demonic forces that would corrupt him—even if it means invoking a power that could spell his own destruction.

A crime novelist reunites with old college friends to solve a decades-old murder in a riveting novel of psychological suspense by the bestselling author of Falls to Pieces. Crime writer Gregg Dryer returns to his Pennsylvania campus for Homecoming weekend to revisit the death of his girlfriend Jess. During their freshman year, everyone assumed she took her own life when she fell from the roof of D’Amelio Hall—everyone except Gregg.

My Morandi
The Italian painter Giorgio Morandi is recounted as a friend and artist in this memoir by Luigi Magnani, an art historian and devoted collector of Morandi's work.
One of the most beloved and critically acclaimed artists of the twentieth century, Giorgio Morandi painted serial and permutational arrangements of everyday objects that elevated the quotidian into the sublime. In 1940, he struck up a decades-long friendship with entrepreneur, musicologist, art historian, and collector Luigi Magnani.
My Morandi is the first full-length English translation of Magnani's memoir reflecting on his bond with the artist and his long-standing academic and personal interest in Morandi's paintings. In My Morandi, Magnani considers the artist's aloofness from artistic trends and his dedication to painting for a small, discerning audience. He locates Morandi within the art-historical canon as well as recounts their artistic and intellectual kinship, which led to a unique, rich collection of Morandi's work at Magnani's villa in Mamiano, now the Magnani Rocca Foundation. Magnani's personal collection of Morandi's work was on view at David Zwirner, New York, in 2025. Originally published in 1982 in Italian, this memoir is accompanied by a new preface by Alice Ensabella and includes an introduction by Stefano Roffi, director of the Magnani Rocca Foundation.
Project V
STEMinist mecha fantasy meets reality television in this high-stakes novel from the author of A Magical Girl Retires--a wildly imaginative tale of sibling bonds, unexpected friendship, and an existential quest to understand what it means to be human.
Robotics student Kim Wooram, runner-up at the World Gigantic Mechanics Olympiad, is a world-class pilot and engineer. Unlike many of her contemporaries, she likes working solo, preferring the company of robots to most other humans. Sought by robotics centers across the globe, she chooses to return to Korea after learning of an exciting new secret government robotic project known as V. To her disappointment, only male pilots are allowed to apply.
Desperate for a chance to make history and encouraged by her twin brother, Boram, the usual rule-following Wooram makes a risky choice. Posing as Boram, she auditions for Project V, the reality competition show whose winner will pilot the robot V--and quickly becomes one of the top contestants in both skill and popularity. Wooram attracts fans and friends like Seojin, the show's youngest female writer and ardent "Boram" stan, and Jeonghoon, the clumsy but lovable underdog. She also gains a rival in Jinyoung, the ruthless heir to a Korean corporate dynasty.
As Wooram comes tantalizingly close to achieving her goal, she begins to realize that V's arrogant AI is a ticking time bomb. With victory within reach, and her identity at stake, will Wooram destroy the robot of her dreams to save lives, or stick to the script?
Project V is a playful yet sharp meditation on some of the most pressing issues roiling modern society in Korea and across the globe: the male dominance in STEM fields, the ethics of parasocial idolatry and our addiction to social media and reality television, and the promise and peril of an AI-oriented future. Punchy and compelling, Park Seolyeon's novel is a winning exploration of ambition and creation--a quintessential novel of our present and future for mecha fans and all curious readers.

Ways of Telling
‘Ways of Telling isn't like any other book. Is it social reportage, the eye at the keyhole, the ear at the door? It is its own thing.’ Margaret Atwood‘I couldn’t love it more. After the very first story I had a huge wide grin on my face. More more more! Every single story could be an award-winning short film. I love, love, love it.’ Carey Mulligan‘An extraordinary book. Xandra Bingley's darting, curious eyes miss nothing and we follow them with her at a headlong speed. I wish I could write like that.’ Harriet Walter‘Fractured, haunting, intimate and totally original, Ways of Telling knocked the breath out of me. It’s dangerously exact, wilfully ambitious, wild in its scope and perfect in its precision.’ Olivia Laing‘The pieces in this book are just the right size to blow one’s mind in a train or on a tram: they have a most unusual delicacy, wit and freshness, and their physical world is powerfully seductive.’ Helen GarnerFrom the bestselling author of Bertie, May & Mrs Fish comes a remarkable collection of stories. As a bystander at Princess Diana’s funeral, a fan at a James Brown concert, a passenger on a Welsh bus and a patient in a hectic hospital, Xandra Bingley’s vivid portraits of everyday experience remind us of the fleeting and mysterious transience of life.

Sacred Homemaking
Transform your house into a living sanctuary with ritual, magic, and gratitude Kimberly Steele defines the home as the seat of the soul; it is our personal ecosystem, rich with spirits and elemental energies. Within this context the concept of ‘sacred homemaking’ can be defined as a constant conversation with these spirits of place. All too often we devalue our homes, viewing them in purely monetary terms, as collections of ‘things’ without consciousness or sentience. Sacred Homemaking invites us to reconsider this relationship, instead prioritising thankfulness and gratitude, to deepen our relationships with the spirits in our homes. Through the course of this book, Steele proves that by practicing gratitude, the sacred homemaker learns to communicate with such beings to bring order, balance, and serenity into the home. Sacred Homemaking takes a clear and intuitive structure, following the wheel of the year with sections divided across the four seasons. It offers examples of different offerings and rituals that can be performed to approve the sanctity of the home. Examples include cleaning rituals; hoodoo spray; alchemical kitchen work; etheric and astral pyramids; spells; divination; folding methods; astral purification; gardening advice; haunted objects; dealing with poltergeists; and much more!In the busy, materialistic world of the twenty-first century, Kimberly Steele’s methodology is a refreshing reminder to introduce mindfulness and intention into our everyday lives, starting with something as simple, yet infinitely important, as the home.

Plays Well with Others
Dating lessons from my American football-playing best friend? Sign me up!
At the glittery break-up party she throws for herself, Rachel Dumont envisions lifting a glass to celebrate being free and single again. What she actually does: Drink too much champagne and blurt out to her best guy friend that she'd really like to get back on the horse. She doesn't expect Carter Hendrix's answer to be to volunteer himself.
With his sinful brown eyes and too-good-to-be-true body, it'd be no hardship for Rachel to say yes, though she certainly doesn't want him to feel obligated to, um, service her just because her failed, loveless marriage was an s-e-x desert. But since the charming and confident professional American football star owes five public dates to his dating app sponsor, Rachel and Carter make a deal to help each other out.
Pretty soon, the public how-to-date lessons turn into, ahem, very private ones. And Rachel's a star student, graduating quickly from flirty banter and lingering looks to toe-curling, sheet-grabbing, mind-blowing hours of physical education. The problem? Turns out learning to date again feels a lot like the real thing.
Can Rachel and Carter's friendship withstand all these late-night bedroom sessions? Especially since she's suddenly longing for her best friend, and there's nothing fake about her feelings…
Fast Lane
He's the campus bad boy.
She's his neighbour's ex.
Who thought becoming roommates was a good idea?
Lane O'Neill doesn't do drama, and his plan for senior year of college is simple: run the Campus Drivers ride-share app he co-founded with his best friends, cruise campus in his beloved vintage car, and enjoy the attention that comes with the ride. No strings attached.
So when Lane stumbles upon a dishevelled woman asleep in his apartment building hallway, every instinct tells him to keep walking. After all, he doesn't do commitment. Unfortunately, Lois is freshly dumped, newly homeless, and a walking magnet for chaos. She's everything Lane avoids - yet somehow impossible to ignore.
That's how he ends up with a temporary roommate, just until Lois can afford a new place. Easy enough. Except her relentless optimism and stubborn heart have an annoying knack for slipping past his carefully built walls.
Too bad Lois is done playing the good girl, because she's about to break every rule he's ever lived by.
Pick this up if you love: opposites attract, frenemies to lovers, grumpy/sunshine, slow burn/yearning, lots of sexual banter, forced promixity, found family.
