How to Kill a Guy in Ten Dates
‘Fresh, funny and criminally addictive’ HANNAH GRACE
‘I had a blast with this slasher-romance mashup’ ALICIA THOMPSON
For fans of Love in the Time of Serial Killers, Butcher & Blackbird and anyone who's always wanted to see the perfect mash-up of Scream and nostalgic 00s romantic comedies in a book.
When Jamie’s best friend drags her to a speed-dating event, she expects mediocre men and an opportunity to eat her feelings later.
What she doesn't expect is a blackout and for her date to be gruesomely killed at their table. After the lights come on, she sees only more bodies and a group of survivors she suspects the killer could be amongst.
Like every slasher movie she's ever watched and studied, Jamie knows that the rules of making it out alive are simple: don't split up and definitely don't have sex. But that's easier said than done when she finds herself caught in a love triangle with two dangerously attractive strangers.
Nothing speeds up love like fighting for your life and if Jamie's going to get out in one piece, she'll have to figure out who's playing her heart and who's playing to kill.

Everything Happened at Once
THE NEW NOVEL FROM THE RECORD-BREAKING AUTHOR OF HUNGER
What is the date today? Here, time doesn't pass in days. I wouldn't be surprised if spring slid straight into summer, if I looked at a clear lake and saw an old woman in my reflection.

In one apartment block, an unlikely pack break out of quarantine in a stolen lorry and brave an achingly empty world once teeming with colour. The desolate reaches of Eurasia are signposted with fellow defectors and found family.
A wandering travel agent.
A mixed-race divorcee embracing her sacred desire.
A deaf girl traversing the frozen continent barefoot.
How do you find a way forward in a world turned upside down? A novel about our will to live and love until the very end, Everything Happened at Once charts the intimate landscapes of humans making liferafts out of the small miracles of the everyday.
The Lies We Steal - The Hollow Boys 1
From booktok and bookstagram sensation Monty Jay comes a dark, twisted romance set in a world of secrets, vengeance, and monsters that don't hide in the shadows-they rule them.
Perfect for fans of Rina Kent and Penelope Douglas.
Hollow Heights University is a prestigious institution for the elite, nestled in the eerie seaside town of Ponderosa Springs. Beneath its polished surface lies a breeding ground for corruption, where secrets rot and danger lurks behind every corner.
She should have stayed invisible. One wrong move placed her directly in the path of the Hollow Boys-a group of ruthless, powerful men who thrive on control, fear, and destruction. They are the monsters people warn about… and the ones no one escapes.
What begins as a descent into their dangerous world soon becomes something far more complicated. Bound by vengeance, violence, and buried truths, lines blur between victim and accomplice, hatred and desire.
This isn't a story about heroes or happy endings. It's about choices that stain the soul, love that grows in the darkest places, and the kind of obsession that consumes everything in its path.
Some people run from their monsters.
She fell in love with hers.

The Truths We Burn - The Hollow Boys 2
From Monty Jay comes a dark and suspenseful romance where buried secrets resurface, deception runs deep, and revenge is closer than ever.
Ponderosa Springs has always been a town built on lies. Beneath its surface, long-hidden secrets begin to unravel, exposing betrayal, bloodshed, and the truth behind those once trusted the most.
As tensions rise and the past threatens to ignite in full view, the return of a familiar face changes everything.
Sage was once seen as the town's golden girl-but her sudden reappearance at Hollow Heights brings more questions than answers. Haunted by her sister's mysterious death, she claims to be searching for closure. But not everyone believes her intentions are as innocent as they seem.
Especially him.
He knows what she's capable of. He's seen through her before-and he refuses to be deceived again. While others fall under her spell, he remains determined to protect everything they've built, even if it means turning her into his enemy.
As manipulation, secrets, and vengeance collide, their dangerous game escalates into something far more personal. Because this time, control isn't so easily maintained-and not everyone will walk away unscathed.
In a town where nothing stays buried, and everyone has something to hide, one wrong move could set everything on fire.

Make Believe is his incisive, intimate, and timely invitation to approach children's literature not only as an art form worthy of deep study and criticism, but as a portal into the lives of the children. And at a time when we are faced with a national literacy crisis, he champions the profound joys of literature and the importance of reading for pleasure. Written with humor and academic rigor, Make Believe reads like a letter from one's smartest and funniest friend.

The New Geography of Innovation
The US is the source of just about all the technologies that define modern life: personal computers, operating systems, smartphones, e-commerce, web browsers, email, search engines, social networks, electric cars and the rest. And most of the tech companies that created and monetized these technologies are also in the US.
In this book Mehran Gul, the winner of the Financial Times/McKinsey Bracken Bower Prize, asks: is that changing?
Less than a decade ago, the sentiment towards Chinese tech compa-nies was often dismissive and complacent. Now the alarm bells are ringing. But as the commentariat pontificates how the US-China tech battle will play out, an equally interesting question to ask is: are there more Chinas out there? Places no one is taking seriously now that might turn out to be massively competitive sooner than we think.
Samsung, a South Korean conglomerate, competes with Apple to be the world's largest manufacturer of smartphones. Arm, founded in the UK, develops chip designs that are used in more than 90 per cent of all mobile devices. Spotify, based in Sweden, is the most popular music streaming service in the world.
That's not all. The world's most important semiconductor company, TSMC, is in Taiwan. The other most important company in the semiconductor industry, ASML, is in the Netherlands. Some of the world's best-known games like Minecraft, Candy Crush and Angry Birds came from gaming studios in the Nordics. Nearly all the major electric battery manufacturers like CATL, LG, and SK On are in Asia.
This is a story about technology and the places where it finds its way into the world. Silicon Valley has for half a century been unrivalled in spinning out technologies and fast-growing, high-value, billion-dollar-plus tech companies, the Apples, Facebooks, Googles of the world, that made it the centre for the most rapid creation of wealth in human history. Its secrets are spreading to more places.
The geography of innovation is shifting. The world has a lot more high-value tech companies than ever before, growing a lot faster than ever before, in a lot more places than ever before. This is a book about these places.

The Infinite Sadness of Small Appliances
'And that's why I want to be called Scout'
'It's most unusual, said Clock.
'She's the one who listens and learns,' Scout said. 'She's like me.' She paused and set her voice to pensive. 'You already have names. I'd like one too.'

Pomsta je krvavá 1
Lana Myersová prahne po odplate. Čakala a pripravovala sa na ňu desaťročie. Jej niekdajší trýznitelia si myslia, že je dávno mŕtva. Ibaže ona prežila, zmenila si identitu a pustila sa do premyslenej pomsty. Cestu jej skríži špičkový a charizmatický agent FBI Logan Bennett, vyšetrujúci, ako inak, sériové vraždy. Logan netuší, s kým má do činenia, a iskra, ktorá medzi ním a Lanou preskočí, je neodškriepiteľná. Ako sa ich vzájomné puto prehlbuje, v stávke je toho čoraz viac. Začína sa napínavá hra na mačku a myš. Lana sa pokúša zvládnuť novoobjavený cit i vieru v dobro. Zároveň nepoľavuje ani vo svojich plánoch pomsty.
Knižná séria Pomsta je krvavá postupne odkrýva Lanin aj Loganov príbeh. Čitateľov nenechá ani na chvíľu vydýchnuť. Ľahko sa pristihnú pri tom, že brutálnej, no sympatickej Lane – označovanej aj za akúsi ženskú verziu Dextera Morgana – napriek morálnym pochybnostiam držia palce, a príbehom sa dajú strhnúť. Dynamickosť znásobuje striedanie rozprávača po každej kapitole, takže raz vnímame udalosti z Laninho a potom zase z Loganovho pohľadu.
S.T. ABBY je jedným zo pseudonymov americkej spisovateľky Christie Owens. Práve pod týmto aliasom napísala svoju najznámejšiu knižnú sériu Pomsta je krvavá (v angličtine vyšla v roku 2016 pod názvom Mindf*ck Series). Owens zomrela v roku 2021, pričom mala len 37 rokov. Presné okolnosti jej úmrtia neboli zverejnené, čo časť jej fanúšikov dodnes podnecuje k rôznym oficiálne nepodloženým špekuláciám.
Mačkári

Núria je baristka, ktorá sa vedome rozhodla pre život bez partnera a odmieta nálepku „bláznivá mačacia pani“. Je členkou organizácieThe Meow-Yorkers v Brooklyne, v ktorej sa stará o túlavé mačky. Počas jednej z dobrovoľníckych obchôdzok po meste, presne tam, kde býva jej obľúbený túlavý Kocúr, nájde lepiaci lístoček od tajného obdivovateľa. Táto situácia sa opakuje.

Je pisateľom lístočkov Collin, úspešný spisovateľ a samotár so slabosťou pre dobrú kávu? Alebo Lily, čerstvá absolventka strednej školy, ktorá pátra po svojej dávno stratenej nevlastnej sestre? Sú od Omara, obľúbeného miestneho poštára, ktorý práve prechádza predčasnou krízou stredného veku? Či od Bonga, majiteľa večierky, ktorý sa vyrovnáva so stratou blízkej osoby? Keď Kocúr náhle ochorie, týchto päť cudzích ľudí spojí túžba postarať sa o neho. Napokon zistia, že náhodné stretnutia môžu viesť k priateľstvám, po akých celý čas túžili.
