Infinite Shores
Fate cannot be broken - not even by the gods who serve it.
Emory refuses to lose Romie again. Her friend's fate hangs in the balance as the monstrous Clover plans to use her as a sacrifice to steal power from the deity Atheia - and make himself into a proper god. To stop Clover, Emory needs the help of Atheia's dark counterpart, Sidraeus. Yet this enigmatic deity cannot be trusted, and if Emory is to ally with him, she must invoke an ancient magic to keep him tethered to her side.
Meanwhile, in the divine workshop of the god of balance, Baz learns he has a role to play in the coming fight to save the crumbling worlds and their weakening magics. Yet all he can think of is Kai and the gruesome fate that awaits him at Clover's side - a fate, the god tells him, that is beyond even his reach. But Baz is determined to save Kai, even if he has to rewrite time itself.
As chaos reigns and the tides of a corrupted magic threaten to consume all, Emory and Baz must contend with mercurial gods, vengeful deities, and those hell - bent on eradicating Eclipse magic to save the people they love - and write an ending to their stories that defies fate itself.

The Body Builders
Ada lives a solitary life. She spends her days swimming in her apartment building''s pool, occasionally visiting her cousin Francesca, meeting people for drinks, navigating the social mores of a cold and isolating London. Ada''s parents are recently divorced: her father spends his days at the gym, warm with human proximity. Her mother spends her days alone.When she meets a man named Atticus by the pool, Ada immediately senses an intimate connection between them: as if they share a life, in a way she can''t explain, maybe even a consciousness. Little by little, Ada''s estrangement from her familiar surroundings, memories and reality widens, as though she is seeing her reflection through a mirror, pieces of it falling away. She worries she may be losing her mind.After her mother entreats Ada to join her on a remote Greek holiday, Ada''s connection to her world and her body itself, falls away completely. She is jolted into a new, artificial environment - The Facility: a place apparently designed to meet her every wish, but where secrets hide along endless hallways and behind closed doors. When a person''s life, in the odd space between mind and body, is inherently one of isolation, are our connections with those around us merely projections of ourselves? And if not, where do they come from?With precision, subtlety, and confidence Albertine Clarke transforms touches of the sci-fi into an entirely singular experience of deep interiority. The Body Builders lands like a blow, widening a crack that allows us to perceive the world differently than we ever imagined.

The Book in the Cathedral
Medieval manuscript historian and author of the widely acclaimed Meetings with Remarkable Manuscripts discovers the most intimate surviving relic of Thomas Beckett. The assassination of Thomas Becket in Canterbury Cathedral on December 29, 1170, is one of the most famous events in European history. It inspired the largest pilgrim site in medieval Europe and many works of literature from Chaucer''s Canterbury Tales to T. S. Eliot''s Murder in the Cathedral and Anouilh''s Becket. In a brilliant piece of historical detective work, Christopher de Hamel here identifies the Anglo-Saxon Psalter which Becket cherished throughout his time as Archbishop of Canterbury and which he may even have been holding when he was murdered. Beautifully illustrated, this is an exciting rediscovery of one of the most evocative artifacts of medieval England and the only surviving relic from Becket''s shrine.

The Three Lives of Cate Kay
Friend. Lover. Imposter. Who is Cate Kay?
Cate Kay is the most famous author on the planet. But it's just a name. Somehow, the woman behind the books has remained completely anonymous.
Anne Marie Callahan is the name nobody knows. Annie knows there's no one left to connect the dots between the novelist and the girl who ran away all those years ago.
If you asked, she'd say her name was Cass Ford. That's what her barista shouts each morning. And it's how she introduces herself to the woman she'll eventually call the love of her life.
Three names, three lives. Cate Kay is finally ready to tell you who she really is.
And when the truth is out, will everyone's favourite novelist hold on to her place in our hearts or are some betrayals impossible to forgive?
Cynics
'A love that cannot be throttled by the rubber tube of an enema bulb is immortal.'Bookish and idealistic Vladimir is tormented with love for Olga; he brings her flowers when other men bring her flour and millet. Olga eventually agrees to marry him, as her building’s central heating will be out of service all winter and at least with two in the bed they’ll be warmer. When she decides she’d like to serve the revolution, he introduces her to his brother Sergei, a Bolshevik who manages the waterways.Thus begins an excruciating love triangle, measured in ration coupons and black market goods. Described by the poet Joseph Brodsky as 'one of the most innovative novels in Russian literature', Marienhof’s Cynics is a pitch-black comedy set during the wild and savage years of War Communism and the New Economic Policy. Cinematic in its style and collagist in its aesthetic, it establishes Marienhof as a true formal radical.It is a bawdy, savage, lavishly emotional portrayal of working for the revolution (and trying to ignore it).
Intimate Audrey
'I came to realise my mother was a lioness. She was soft and strong at the same time and had the gentlest of hearts.' - Sean Hepburn Ferrer

She played a runaway princess, an eccentric socialite and a nun struggling with her faith. But perhaps her greatest contribution to the world was as a selfless humanitarian in the final years of her life.
For Sean Hepburn Ferrer, Audrey was also his mother. In INTIMATE AUDREY, he candidly recounts how the shy 'girl from across the landing' became the star we remember and love today. Featuring never-before-seen photographs and excerpts from her personal letters, this book is an intimate portrait of Audrey: as an icon, as a mother and as an altruist who drew on her own experience of hunger and suffering to advocate fiercely for children in war-torn countries.
Audrey shines in this moving portrait of a mother by her son; a visionary woman who continues to defy all expectations decades after her death.

A Wish For Us - Ezt kívánom magunknak
Történet a zenéről, a gyógyulásról és a szerelem mindent legyőző erejéről.
A tizenkilenc éves Cromwell Dean az elektronikus tánczene
feltörekvő csillaga. Emberek ezrei rajonganak érte,
de senki sem ismeri igazán. Senki sem látja, mit rejt a szíve.
Egészen addig, amíg fel nem bukkan a lila ruhás lány.
Ő átlát a ú által emelt falakon, egészen a lelkében tátongó ürességig.
Amikor Cromwell maga mögött hagyja Anglia szürkeségét,
hogy a forró Dél-Karolinában zenét tanuljon, a legkevésbé sem számít arra,
hogy újra látja őt. És arra végképp nem, hogy folyton ez a lány
jár majd az eszében, akár egy végtelenül ismétlődő dallam.
Bonnie Farraday a zenéért él. Minden hangot beenged a szívébe, és nem érti,
hogyan lehet, hogy valaki, aki annyira tehetséges, mint Cromwell, képes
elzárni magát ettől. A ú a múltja elől menekül, ezt pedig Bonnie is tudja jól.
Próbálja távol tartani magát a útól, de valami újra és újra visszahúzza hozzá.
Bonnie-tól újra berobbannak a színek Cromwell sötét világába.
Cromwell az a zene, amitől Bonnie szíve kihagy egy ütemet.
De amikor árnyék vetül Bonnie életére, Cromwellnek kell fényt hoznia
úgy, ahogy csak ő képes rá. Segítenie kell megtalálni a lány törékeny szívében
elveszett dalt. A remény szimfóniájával. A szerelem szimfóniájával.
A közös szimfóniájukkal.

The Rules of Dating My One-Night Stand - Hogyan randizzunk az egyéjszakás kalandunkkal? - Hogyan randizzunk? 3.
Az egyéjszakás kalandok első és legfontosabb szabálya: ne szeress bele a nőbe!
Egy hosszúra nyúló magánéleti válságot követően végre megismerkedtem valakivel, akitől szikra gyúlt a bensőmben. Jobban mondva, a szikrák akkor pattantak ki, amikor összetűzésbe keveredtünk. Majd később - még aznap éjszaka - lángra lobbantak.
Egyetlen nő sem volt még rám olyan hatással, mint Devyn.
Mondanom sem kell, mennyire lelombozott, amikor egy csodás, együtt töltött éjszaka után egyszerűen faképnél hagyott. Képtelen voltam elfelejteni, de ő még a számát sem adta meg. Azt hittem, sosem találkozunk újra.
Ezért képzelhetitek, mennyire megdöbbentem, amikor az egyik szomszédom ajtaján kopogtatva nem más nyitott ajtót, mint ő.
Korábban azt hittem, hogy Devynt egyszerűen nem érdeklem. De szerinted mit érzett, amikor megtudta, hogy én vagyok a főbérlője, és éppen ki akarom lakoltatni...?
