The Extraordinary Orbit of Alex Ramirez
Alex's favourite things to do are watching YouTube videos of rocket launches with his Papi and spending hours on the NASA website reading about astronauts and planets. He even dreams of going to space one day himself, and knows he'll have to study hard in order to get there. But Alex is in his 'self-contained' classroom, which means doing the same dull worksheets every day and reading books his sister read back in the third grade. 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.
You Can't Bluff the Sharp-Eyed Sister 4
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. What he doesn't know is, she just has sharp eyes and a quick wit--which she'll need when she's uprooted and dropped in the middle of a round of deadly palace intrigue! In a sleepy countryside church, Chloe plays the part of a prim and naive novice, studying to become a priestess. But when night falls, she sneaks out in disguise to win big money at cards! Despite her best efforts, word gets around, and one day a handsome young holy knight named Heraldo—known as a rising star in the capital—arrives to enlist her help. A murder two years ago threatens the stability of the kingdom, and Heraldo thinks this card shark in sister’s clothes can solve it using her Gift—the rare blessing that allows someone to use magic. Little does Heraldo know, there’s nothing supernatural about Chloe’s winning streak. She’s just got a quick wit, and sharp eyes! Will that be enough to survive the den of devils that is the royal palace?
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.

As queen, she relies on her many advisors to make up for her lack of experience, but when all they do is squabble with each other, the only thing left to do is descend the mountain and come face-to-face with her subjects themselves.

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.
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!
Westerly
In an unforgettable saga of survival, motherhood, sisterhood, and the secrets that haunt us, one desperate decision creates a fault line that spans decades and threatens to break a family wide open. In 1946, two German sisters, child refugees in a program dubbed Operation Shamrock, arrive in Ireland to live in foster care while Europe recovers from war. Nearly fifty years later, on a fateful day in a bustling Maine farmhouse, an Irish newspaper clipping threatens to unravel Faye Sullivan’s carefully constructed life with husband William and daughters Maeve and Molly, a life already on the brink of collapse. When tragedy strikes and the Sullivans grapple with a cascade of buried secrets, Faye must confront the truth of a childhood summer in West Cork marked by adventure, heartbreak, and a life-altering decision that now jeopardizes everything she holds dear. And while their bonds may not be what they seemed, those bonds might be the one thing strong enough to help the broken Sullivan family navigate the truth and find their way forward together. From Germany to Ireland to coastal Maine, this tender family saga explores identity, reconciliation, and the true meaning of home.

The League of Dangerous Young Ladies
Enola Holmes meets Buffy the Vampire Slayer in this thrilling YA fantasy adventure from debut author J. A. Morgenstein, perfect for fans of Jennifer Lynn Barnes and Philip Pullman.
It's 1909 and Rose Moriarty-teenage daughter of Sherlock Holmes' greatest enemy-has made a name for herself fighting monsters and solving crimes. But that was before Rose met the one mystery she couldn't solve: the disappearance of her headmistress. Now, her school has shut down, her classmates have scattered, and Rose is on her own.
On the very day Rose receives word that an old friend is dying, the shadowy Count Christoph and his ward Clara show up at her door. Rose has already figured out why they're here (to hire her) and what's in their bag (an ancient orb with incredible powers), but questions remain: Can Rose convince these strangers to help save her friend's life? What are the grotesque, bug-shaped stalkers that plague their every step? And how can Rose pursue this adventure while avoiding a certain boy from her childhood? The only thing certain is that Rose is no longer alone, because danger forges strange alliances . . .
. . . and Professor Moriarty wasn't the only famous villain to have a daughter.
Unexpected friendships, supernatural mystery, high-stakes heists, and budding romance billow together in this thrilling fantasy adventure, which introduces a motley crew of daredevil heroines who hunt monsters . . . in all their forms.
Lore Olympus: Volume Ten
Hades and Persephone get a modern, romantic reimagining in Lore Olympus, a gorgeously illustrated, Eisner Award-winning comic-now including a never-before-seen bonus short story!
"The Mortal Realm-it's dying."
After years of yearning, the big day has finally arrived: Hades and Persephone are getting married! It's the ceremony of the century, and practically all the gods are invited to celebrate the happy couple. The wedding, full of love and joy, provides a much-needed respite for the pantheon . . . but the newlyweds have no time for a honeymoon.
The king and queen of the Underworld begin unprecedented dives into the dream world to find the god that Kronos took hostage-and, hopefully, to get answers on defeating the furious titan once and for all. During their explorations, they begin to suspect that Persephone's powers over spring may have been altered. Their theory is proven correct with deadly consequences: When Persephone returns to the Mortal Realm, she ushers in not the regular change of seasons, but a never-ending winter.
And while the gods worry about the total annihilation of the Mortal Realm, Apollo uses the chaos as cover for an attempt to kill Zeus. He claims his dying father's throne and decrees that the only way to save the Mortal Realm is if Persephone-and her power-belong to him. The others reject his outrageous demand, proposing instead that whoever can fix the failing seasons will be named interim ruler of Olympus. Hope now rests with the struggling goddess to find a way to stop the treacherous Apollo and save humankind-or else be separated from Hades forever.
This edition of Smythe's original Eisner Award-winning webcomic Lore Olympus features a brand-new, exclusive short story from creator Rachel Smythe and brings the Greek pantheon into the modern age in a sharply perceptive and romantic graphic novel.
This volume collects episodes 234-260 of the #1 WEBTOON comic Lore Olympus.

White Power
Beginning in the colonial era and growing through the American Revolution and the Southern plantation system, slaveholders’ violent police regime continued after Emancipation, through Reconstruction, to today. Moving across time, space, and place, White Power uncovers how slaveholders created their own white supremacist police and government to deny Black people rights, power, and humanity. Legal historian Gautham Rao introduces us to laws that empowered white people to forcibly exercise their desired racial superiority over Black people, shows how they spread from the South throughout the nation, and traces the rebellions, fugitivity, activism, and legal systems that challenged them. Rao’s narrative includes slaveholders, lawmakers, and the Ku Klux Klan, dramatic escapes by runaway enslaved people, abolitionist activism in courtroom showdowns, and pitched battles between white paramilitaries and enslaved rebels. He offers a new interpretation of the history of policing in the US, centering the institution and legacy of slavery and speaking to the origins of today’s persistence of white vigilance, white supremacist militia groups, and white racist cops determined to maintain power over Black people by force. Equally determined, however, was Black Americans’ refusal to accept it.
