Power Reimagined
"When they're old enough, I'm going to give my two daughters this book. They need to read Khadijah's extraordinary story and learn how courage, positivity, and sheer willpower can overcome any obstacle." — Malcolm Gladwell, New York Times bestselling author; host, Revisionist History podcast. A stirring account of how to gain—and own—your power. From growing up in 1980s Harlem to working at entertainment giants such as BET, MTV, and Nickelodeon, Khadijah Sharif-Drinkard has spent her life redefining what real power looks like. In Power Reimagined, she dismantles the myths we've been taught about power. Through raw, behind-the-scenes stories from both her childhood and her trailblazing career, she reveals that real power isn't handed to you—it's forged through strategy, courage, and an unshakable belief in your own worth. She takes readers inside high-stakes situations where she refused to settle for less and pivotal moments where audacity became her greatest asset. From her earliest dreams of success to the executive offices where she made those dreams real, Sharif-Drinkard reveals the moments that shaped her and the strategies that helped her lead with impact and integrity. Part fearless memoir, part inspirational guide, Power Reimagined is for anyone who's ever been overlooked, undervalued, or told they didn't belong. This book will inspire you to own your power and use it without apology.

Now she's both a powerful ally and a massive threat, and everyone she loves is a target. But Beecher is the one place that has ever felt like home, and Jo will do anything to protect it.

Come Back to the World
A single mother strives to understand the enigma of a reclusive novelist in a poignant novel about belonging, secret lives, and the want to disappear by New York Times bestselling author Catherine Ryan Hyde. Amelia Booker, a journalist and expert in American literature, receives a photograph leading to the possible whereabouts of E. L. Swann, an author who vanished forty years ago after the success of her first and only novel. It’s too intriguing a literary mystery for Amelia not to follow. In Santa Rosarita, Mexico, Amelia and her seven-year-old son, Jaden, meet the elderly and guarded Ella Steinbach, known to locals for riding her donkey to market, then retreating from the world again to her hilltop house. Prickly and defensive at first, Ella reluctantly concedes the truth about her identity. If not for Ella’s deep affection for the bright and introverted Jaden, she would have found the intrusion unforgivable. Instead, she grants an interview on the condition that Amelia tell no one where E. L. Swann has been found. As days turn into weeks, and Ella reveals more than expected about her past, she and Amelia form a difficult but surprising bond. From it comes the realization that the personal struggles we endure determine the necessary choices we make to move forward. But no matter how much Amelia tries to convince her otherwise, E. L. Swann really does wish to be left alone. And only by accepting the author as she is can Amelia maintain the life-changing connection.

Now they must solve his murder before their cushy arrangement becomes a permanent stay in maximum security. As a storm rages outside and the power fails, alliances shift within. With police knocking at their door and an emotional support iguana named Nacho as their witness, these inmates hustle to collect evidence and plan a killer party—all while dodging suspicion. Because someone in this concrete block is a murderer. And everyone is a suspect. But as New Year’s Eve approaches and bodies pile up, these unlikely allies discover that in Pay to Stay, some debts can only be paid in blood.

Stuck
Why fifty years of changemaking and reform haven't fixed Congress—and what that reveals about American democracy. Congress, the central democratic institution in the United States, is hanging on by a thread. On January 6, 2021, a violent attack on the Capitol Building left five people dead, and threats and attacks against politicians are on the rise. In Stuck, Maya Kornberg chronicles the efforts of congressional reformers over the last fifty years and documents the mounting forces that have kept their reforms from creating meaningful change. The "Watergate babies" of 1974, the Contract with America conservatives of 1994, and the historic 2018 class fueled by backlash to Donald Trump all represent younger, more diverse, and less entrenched members who arrived in Washington energized and idealistic. Kornberg reveals the ways Congress has become increasingly inhospitable to change. Political violence, astronomical campaign costs, relentless fundraising demands, shrinking staff, and centralized party leadership all constrain the ability of new members to legislate and represent their constituents. Social media, while offering new platforms for political expression, has also heightened harassment and fed a performative culture that rewards spectacle over substance. Bolstered by dozens of interviews, congressional records, and the voices of lawmakers past and present—including Henry Waxman, Toby Moffett, Phil English, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, and Lauren Underwood—Stuck offers a sobering portrait of a legislative body paralyzed by its own internal dynamics. Kornberg outlines tangible reforms that could restore Congress's capacity to function and amplify the power of its newest members. At a time when Americans are losing faith in democracy's most representative institution, Stuck makes the case for how it could be saved.

A szerelem hangja
Joni Lark megvalósította az álmát: ő az egyik legkeresettebb dalszerző Los Angelesben. Jelenleg azonban alkotói válsággal küzd, a lelkét felemésztő borzalmas űrt semmi nem képes kitölteni.
Amikor visszatér szülővárosába, az észak-karolinai Vienna Shoresba, abban reménykedik, hogy a homok, a tenger és a családja által üzemeltetett zenés klub, a Revelry koncertjei meghozzák számára az ihletet. Ám otthon már semmi sem olyan, mint régen. Legjobb barátnője kerüli, édesanyja emlékei halványulnak, és a Revelryt a bezárás fenyegeti.
Hogyan is tudna egy új dal megírására összpontosítani, amikor körülötte minden szétesik, és semmit sem tehet ellene?
De aztán hirtelen valami egészen különös dolog történik. Új dallam bukkan fel a fejében a semmiből, egy szöveg nélküli töredék, és ezzel egy időben beszélni kezd hozzá egy ellenállhatatlanul csábító hang, amely egy cinikus, súlyos terheket cipelő férfihoz tartozik.
Biztosan csak a túlhajszolt képzelete játszik vele.
Csakhogy a hang tulajdonosa, a nagyon is valóságos és bosszantóan jóképű zenész egyszer csak megjelenik Vienna Shoresban. Látszatra mogorva és idegesítő, semmi köze ahhoz a kedves, megértő és humoros valakihez, akit Joni a fejében hall. Ráadásul terve is van: befejezik a dalt, ami mindkettőjüket kísérti, megszabadulnak a köztük lévő különös telepatikus kapcsolattól, és remélik, hogy közben nem teszik kockára a szívüket.
Mert a dallam, ami nem ereszti őket, talán nem véletlenül talált rájuk.
Walk
Walking isn't just a leisurely activity or a form of personal transportation. Its far-reaching benefits - not just for physical health, but for mental clarity and emotional well-being, creativity and social connection - make it a vital component of human existence, one that is as essential as breathing and sleeping.
In this book, world-renowned foot and gait specialist, Courtney Conley, and physiotherapist, Milica McDowell, transform our understanding of the importance of one of the simplest and most accessible forms of movement. Drawing on cutting-edge research, evolutionary biology and real-life stories from their practice, they show that walking is one of our most powerful and under-prescribed medicines: revealing why walking speed can predict overall health; how the risk of falls, which has a direct impact on longevity, can be measured by your foot health; and how even the shortest of walks can have profound healing effects.
Filled with practical advice, from simple tips to help with lower back pain, to customizable programs to enhance mobility and fitness, this book is an essential guide to transforming your physical - and mental - health, from the ground up.

Drawn together by circumstance, they find unexpected kinship among a disreputable, determined band of women.
But in a town steeped in hypocrisy, even the smallest act of defiance can have dangerous consequences …

Confusingly, the one person Meryn can trust is Stark Therion - the dark, dangerous Alpha she thought hated her as much as she loathed him. Yet, his loyalty is unshakeable. His presence intoxicating. And with his guidance, Meryn can seize an unthinkable level of power.
With enemies closing in and shadows stirring her dreams, Meryn stands to lose her kingdom - and her heart.
Blood will spill. Bonds will break. Fate will be tested.
