A makeshift academy is set up on the mountain and every eligible girl must attend and learn how to become a proper princess. Soon Miri finds herself confronted with a harsh academy mistress, bitter competition among the girls, and her own conflicting desires.

Jenže já jsem přežila.Stvořená z hrůzného činu a cizí krutosti si jdu pro svou pomstu a nezastavím se, dokud ti, kteří jsou zodpovědní za moji zkázu, nebudou trpět.Uprostřed chaosu, který rozpoutám, mi do cesty vstoupí muž s karamelovýma očima. Dokáže ve mně probudit kapku naděje, nebo je jedním z těch, kteří poznají můj hněv?

The Adjunct's Handbook
A practical guide for thriving as an adjunct. Today, more than two-thirds of college courses are taught by part-time or contingent faculty who are navigating a system that too often offers little guidance, support, or stability. Dr. Jan Yager's The Adjunct's Handbook is a clear, practical guide designed to equip adjunct instructors with the knowledge they need to thrive in a challenging and frequently overlooked corner of higher education. Drawing on insights from more than 100 surveys, interviews with more than 60 adjunct and full-time professors, and her own extensive teaching experience, Yager covers the essential information you need to become and excel as an adjunct. This comprehensive book explains how to:• Hone your teaching strategies—including how to structure courses, manage students, and adapt to in-person or online formats • Navigate the system by learning how to apply for teaching positions, negotiate pay, and choose the right institutions for your goals • Know your rights regarding contracts, unions, intellectual property, other employment, and academic freedom • Combat isolation by building professional networks, finding connections, and practicing advocacy Whether you teach in person, online, or in a hybrid environment, as a new adjunct or a seasoned one, Dr. Yager addresses the inequities, questions, isolation, and stigma that too many adjuncts routinely face. She offers concrete strategies for improving working conditions, building community, and advocating for yourself in a field where opportunities and support can be unevenly distributed. Accessible and informative, filled with real-life anecdotes and quotes, The Adjunct's Handbook is essential reading for anyone who is trying to make part-time teaching work.

On Sports
What are sports, really? What do we love about them? And what, in our digital age, have they becom? n Sports reads like a conversation between friends at the ballpark in those golden days before the kiss cam and college co-eds with T-shirt cannons spoiled the fun; a book that feels like the sun on your forehead and the breeze in your hair, beer and laughter on your lips; a book that celebrates communion and friendship and the beauty of these games—whether it be baseball or football or soccer or tennis or cricket—that we’ve designed to distract ourselves from the end of the world. It’s about what 7Up tastes like when drunk from the Grey Cup, how much work it takes for talent to shine, and the near impossibility of language to properly capture athletic excellence. It’s about the beauty of good sports copy, the ephemerality of even the biggest sports story, and how sport remains perpetually powered by the eleven-year-old in all of us. It’s a book about rediscovering the spirit of sport, before online gambling and the manufactured spectacle of today’s professional sports suffocates the last of it; and it’s about where that spirit today is best found.
Lost London
An engaging, beautifully illustrated history of London told through twenty-five lost buildingsLondon has been rebuilt and reshaped perhaps more than any other city over its two-millennia history. From the construction of the Underground to slum clearance and the Blitz, buildings have long been damaged or demolished to pave way for the new. Today, demolition is big business, and around 3500 buildings are destroyed each year, most of which are social housing. Paul Knox traces the history of London from the Great Fire to the present day through twenty-five lost buildings. Knox explores surprising and unusual locations in the city’s history, like the Necropolis Station in Waterloo used by funeral parties traveling to a burial ground in Surrey. We see historic landmarks, like Christ Church Greyfriars and the Crystal Palace, as well as everyday places like the White Horse pub in Poplar and a housing estate in Hackney. This is a fascinating study of London’s restless landscape, showing how conservation has changed over 400 years.
Lightship
Twenty years ago, Bruce Ackerley won Cinnamon Press’s inaugural poetry collection prize with his debut, Sound of Mountain, of which RV Bailey wrote: ‘finely crafted, lyrical and spare… with a musical ear for landscape and relationships. An interesting, individual voice, he writes with power and sensitivity.’In Lightship, Ackerley now brings together his finest writing from two decades, the voice confident and supple with a deepened lyricism and an acute sense of what to say, and what not to say, each poem is a honed gem—poised and resonant. Ranging across the natural and supernatural, the solace and joys of art, film and music, love, grief and sexuality, and the vicissitudes of mental health, Lightship is both an internal record and a reaching out. A moving, distinctive piece de résistance.

Forest Time
In his twenties, broke, brokenhearted, and fearful about the future, Jeremy Lloyd stumbled into a job that would change his life. More than two decades later, still an educator at Tremont in Great Smoky Mountains National Park, Lloyd recounts his journey as a teacher and student of the great outdoors in Forest Time: Footnotes to an Outdoor Education. Blending natural history, daring—and sometimes foolish—adventure, and spiritual balm for a world suffering from widespread disconnection from nature, Forest Time is equal parts personal, educational, and existential. Lloyd's stories about his work as an educator at an overnight nature center are filled with humility and conviction, examining his relationships to the forests, mountains, and rivers he calls home.Wrestling with the intersections between the wild natural landscape, high-volume tourism, and the national park system, Lloyd's explorations are born from his extensive experience and personal relationship with the park. His voice and candor are as refreshing and distinctive as the natural environment he writes about, reminding readers that the mountains are not only national treasures but also a remedy for modernity's errors and a cultural malaise fixated on material gain and ultimate safety and comfort. Vulnerable, hilarious, and widely accessible, Forest Time fits appropriately on shelves beside the works of Edward Abbey, Annie Dillard, and Kevin Fedarko.
More Than Flower Power
Diane J. Purvis's memoir offers a unique view from the Los Angeles County suburbs as she was coming of age during the era of civil rights activism, the women's movement, and Vietnam anti-war movement. More than Flower Power recalls the youthful energy that surged in the 1960s as political and cultural tensions rose to the surface. Her parents, Midwest transplants to California, sought the postwar American dream and went from pinching pennies to living in upper middle-class suburbs, which were imbued with rigid social and political codes. Purvis rejected this conservative bias while attending racially integrated schools and witnessing the dichotomy between suburban and inner-city students, motivating her to embrace social justice. Purvis and her peers were influenced by images of the Vietnam War and political protests they saw on television and the music they heard on their transistor radios, two emerging technologies that shaped popular perceptions during this tumultuous decade. Purvis was possessed by the desire to make a difference even though inroads to social and political equality looked impossible in the face of America's cultural consensus and conformism of the era. Through the lens of one person's experience, More than Flower Power offers an intimate portrait of a West Coast generation's optimism, idealism, and transformative influence on American culture and society.
Důvěřuj mi
Jmenuju se Reed Madden. Na pódiu jsem hvězda a v zákulisí rozbitý člověk. Hudba mě vytáhla z temnoty, ale nikdy mě z ní úplně nevysvobodila. Jedu na plný plyn – nekonečné turné, miliony fanoušků, tlak a minulost, před kterou nemůžu utéct… A pak se objeví ona… Žena, která by neměla patřit do mého světa, a přesto v něm zapálila světlo, o kterém jsem ani nevěděl, že ho postrádám. Já jsem chaos, ona je klid. Její dotek mě uzemňuje, její úsměv mě nutí věřit, že i já si zasloužím víc než jen přechodné chvíle. Ale každý den se znovu probouzím s vědomím, že svět, ve kterém žiju, nakonec pohltí i ji. A láska? Ta nemusí stačit. Jak mám někomu slíbit budoucnost, když sám sebe sotva držím pohromadě?
V zajetí Pradávných
Občas si připadám jako černá kočka, s drápky připravenými vždy k útoku. City? Ty jsem dávno zamkla kdesi v hlubinách svého srdce, protože v mém světě se taková slabost neodpouští. Přála jsem si být nezávislá, jenže teď mě svazuje síla pouta… a já nenávidím, že bolí tak sladce.***Chtěl jsem jen klid, ticho a čas na zhojení starých jizev. Místo toho mi Bohyně předhodila dívku, která by mě nejraději zabila pouhým pohledem – nebo svou vůní. Nebezpečně se mi dostává pod kůži. Ve dne si lezeme na nervy, v noci se vzájemně spalujeme. A někde mezi tou nevraživostí roste něco, co si ani jeden z nás nechce přiznat.
