A shrewd, young priestess-in-training is set a murder to solve in this new mystery manga from the creator of The Apothecary Diaries! By day, Chloe lives at a convent. By night, she's such a card shark, a holy knight ends up believing she has a rare, magical gift.

Africulture
At the heart of Africulture is an aspect of history that will surprise, challenge, and enrich: the fact that without African expertise and innovation, American agriculture and America itself would not exist. This book is an eclectic brew of history, culture, African-centered perspectives, and African American farm realities; inspiring stories of innovators such as Henry Blair and Dr. George Washington Carver; and sobering facts such as the severe decline in Black farmers over the last century. Descriptions of tropical crops, from cotton to Nigerian spinach, that author Michael Carter, Jr. grows on his fifth-generation family farm in Virginia enliven the text, as will anecdotes from his compelling family history and sidebars on contemporary Black chefs and farmers. The life cycle of a plant is used as a metaphor for both individual growth and the larger story of African American farming. The author also evokes the relationship between soil health (metaphorically, society and community) and plant health (i.e., the ability of Black farmers and families to thrive). Africulture practices include no-till methods, organic growing, solarization, limited outside inputs, climate-smart practices, and regenerative agriculture. Woven into the narrative as well are Africulture principles including: As Above, So Below; ecological balance; stewardship; holistic value; preparation for seven generations; and cooperative economics.

He even dreams of going to space one day himself, and knows he'll have to study hard in order to get there.

Worst of all, being in SC means nobody thinks he's ready to join Ms. Rosef's mainstream science class - the class Alex knows will be the first step on his path to NASA. When his teacher says 'not yet' for the millionth time, Alex decides it's time to make a change. Now he's ready to try everything he can to get the people in his life - his teachers, his parents, and the kids at school - to understand that he, Alex Ramirez, is capable of the extraordinary.

The Kennedys and the Windsors
'A compelling read' -- Robert Jobson'Racy' -- The Times'Illuminating' -- Elizabeth Beller'A meticulous feat of research and reporting' -- Kate StoreyThe story of two iconic dynasties-the Kennedys and the Windsors-whose glamour and ambition defined an era. Reveals never-before examined stories about Queen Elizabeth, King Charles, Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor, Princess Diana, Prince Harry, JFK, Jackie Kennedy Onassis, Carolyn Bessette-Kennedy, Robert Kennedy Jr., and many others. For fans of The Crown and Disney+ new Ryan Murphy limited series Love Story. For nearly a century, two families have captured the world's collective imagination: the Windsors and the Kennedys. Much has been written about their individual trysts, tragedies, and triumphs over the years, but no one has examined their intertwined legacies. Until now. The Kennedys and the Windsors unearths the shared story of these two families, drawing out some startling parallels between them: the style icons Princess Diana and Carolyn Bessette-Kennedy, who both tragically died young, the frustrated "second sisters" Princess Margaret and Lee Radziwill, the scandal-plagued next generation of Robert F. Kennedy Jr. and the man formerly known as Prince Andrew, and the current generation's struggles to figure out what a monarchy - actual or imagined - means in the twenty-first century. From Queen Elizabeth's coronation to President Kennedy's historic London visit, JFK Jr.'s shocking death to Prince Harry's decisive break with his family, Caroline Hallemann traces the key moments in the lives of these dynasties through a fresh and fascinating lens, showing how they have intersected over the generations in ways that not only shaped their images, but history itself.

Az áruló Boleyn
VIII. Henrik udvarában a király szeszélyének és a hatalmi játszmáknak kiszolgáltatott udvaroncok között a titkok a legértékesebb árucikkek.
Minden döntés veszélyes lehet, és a leghalkabb suttogás is megpecsételheti a királynők sorsát.
Jane Boleyn a Tudor-udvar egyik háttérembere, aki nagyon is jól eligazodik a politika labirintusában. Túlélésének záloga, hogy eljátssza a neki rendelt szerepeket: a kételyeit elrejtő feleséget, Boleyn Anna odaadó sógornőjét, a szavait okosan és óvatosan válogató kémet. Ám egy olyan udvarban, ahol a hatalom egy zsarnok király kardjának élén nyugszik, Jane csak a csavaros eszére és az ügyes manővereire támaszkodhat, mert tudja, hogy egyetlen rossz lépés, és összeomlik az egész élete.
Philippa Gregory, a történelmi regények koronázatlan királynője ezúttal a Tudor-kor egyik kevésbé ismert szereplőjét, Jane Boleynt teszi meg a könyve főszereplőjének. Valóban áruló volt, vagy őrült, ahogy az utókor megbélyegezte őt? Vagy éppen egy hihetetlenül művelt és okos nő, aki semmilyen eszköztől nem riadt vissza a túlélése érdekében? Az áruló Boleyn izgalmas és fordulatos történelmi dráma, amely a 16. századi, intrikákkal átszőtt Angliába kalauzol bennünket, miközben kirajzolja egy rendkívüli nő lenyűgöző portréját.
Nekem ez gyanús
Egyesült Királyság, 1979. Margaret Thatcher a miniszterelnök, a szűk farmer a divat, de a tizenéves Mivet egészen más foglalkoztatja. Meg van győződve róla, hogy az apja délre akarja költöztetni az egész családot. Mégpedig a gyilkosságok miatt.
Csakhogy az, hogy ő elhagyja Yorkshire-t és a legjobb barátnőjét, Sharont, egyszerűen szóba sem jöhet. Nem számít, hogy milyen veszélyek leselkednek rájuk, vagy hogy milyen furcsa hangulat uralkodik otthon, amióta Miv anyja nem szól egy szót sem... És ekkor a lánynak támad egy ötlete: talán ha neki és Sharonnak sikerülne megoldaniuk az eltűnt nők ügyét, és leleplezniük a Yorkshire-i Hasfelmetszőt, akkor mégis maradhatna minden a régiben. A két barátnő tehát munkához lát: készítenek egy listát az utcájukban élő összes gyanús emberről és dologról, hátha éppen errefelé bujkál a hírhedt sorozatgyilkos. Ám az igazság keresése során több titkot tárnak fel a kisváros lakóiról, saját családjukról, sőt egymásról és önmagukról is, mint azt valaha is gondolták volna.
A Nekem ez gyanús nemcsak krimi, de izgalmas és megindító történet is a közösségről, a családról, a barátságról és a felnőtté válásról.

Cundoku
Mindenki ismer olyan irodalomkedvelőt, akinek olvasatlan könyvek is vannak a polcán. Elítélendő a könyvhalmozás? Ugyan, dehogy! Hiszen az a könyv is hozzátesz a műveltségünkhöz, érzékenységünkhöz és stílusunkhoz, amelyiket már elolvastuk, és az is, amelyiket még csak tervezzük elolvasni, de már ott van karnyújtásnyira tőlünk. „Végül is a könyvgyűjtés olyan, mintha azt mondanánk, hogy nem tudjuk nem szeretni azt, amit még nem ismerünk. Mi a baj ezzel?” Semmi, mondják a japánok, akiknek külön szavuk is van a könyvgyűjtésre: cundoku. Négy olasz könyvimádó egy közösen választott japán álnéven (Taiki Raito Pym) ugyan szociológiai és pszichológiai szempontok alapján elemzi, hogy min alapszik a gyűjtési vágy, de azt ők is tudják, hogy könyvet gyűjteni maga a gyönyörűség. Ne érezzen emiatt senki lelkiismeret-furdalást. Te sem, kedves olvasónk!
Buddhist Environmental Ethics
Brings Tibetan Buddhist philosophy, contemplative practice, and contemporary environmental ethics together to present a novel way of approaching the pressing issues facing our more-than-human world. In Buddhist Environmental Ethics, Colin H. Simonds presents a compelling case for using a contemplative register to approach some of our most pressing issues surrounding climate change, ecological collapse, and the exploitation of nonhuman animals. Simonds develops an emerging theory of Buddhist ethics—moral phenomenology—by engaging it with the Tibetan framework of view, meditation, action and providing a practical means by which individuals can ethically develop through contemplative practice. He then applies this theory and practical framework to the ethical and material problems facing the more-than-human world to show how a Tibetan Buddhist response to these issues offers a cogent, adaptable way to address environmental problems. In doing so, Buddhist Environmental Ethics forwards the first book-length constructive argument for an eco-Buddhist ethic in over a decade, articulates the first environmental ethic based on Tibetan Buddhist sources, and offers a timely framework for how we can experience the more-than-human world anew through contemplative practice.
