The Witch and the Huntress
Daughters. Warriors. Lovers.
"There is the love that is thrust upon us, and love that we choose. Run after the latter, no matter what gods and men say, and never let it go. Or at least, never let yourself look back."
Medea, born to the goddess Hekate and wicked King Aeetes, endures a lonely and trapped life on the island of Colchis. Yet as she grows, so do her powerful talents of witchcraft and magic.
When Jason, Prince of Iolcus, and his band of Argonauts arrive on the island, Medea knows it is her one chance to escape. If she helps Jason steal the Golden Fleece from her father, he promises to marry her and take her back to his kingdom.
Atalanta, raised by bears, is a warrior caught between the wilderness and the human world, but never fully part of either. After the sudden disappearance of the woman she loves, Atalanta joins the Argonauts in an attempt to find her.
But when Medea joins the ship, the sorceress awakens something in Atalanta that she cannot ignore - something more dangerous than she could ever have imagined.
As the ship sets sail, Medea and Atalanta will be forced to choose between the life they always wished for, and a love they secretly desire - but in a world ruled by men, it might just destroy them...
Anchored, Aligned, Accountable
What if the very moments that feel like setbacks could become openings for transformation?
Aiko Bethea teaches that what holds us back is not the challenge itself, but how we meet it. The tension at work. The misunderstanding at home. The silence in the face of discomfort. She calls these experiences 'the bullsh*t' because they keep us out of alignment with who we aspire to be.
But the bullsh*t is not the end of the story. It is the beginning of choice. Each moment of misalignment can shrink us back into old habits, or it can call us forward into a different way of leading, loving and living. With a witty, engaging voice, Bethea invites us to choose connection over competition, empathy over pity and vulnerability over ego, guiding us toward evolving into the version of ourselves we most respect. As she reminds us, 'bullsh*t can't be fought off, but it can be transcended.'
Through her Anchored, Aligned, Accountable framework, Bethea draws on real-life experiences from her work as a facilitator and leadership coach, offering journaling prompts and practical exercises to support readers' growth. In doing so, she shows us how to step into that transcendence. Grounded in truth. Connected to values. Committed to action that changes not just what we do but who we become.

Bulldozer - Buldózer - Szeretni nehéz 3
Amanda Shaw végre összeszedte magát.
Évek kemény munkája és rengeteg önfegyelem kellett hozzá, de végre ura az életének. New York-i jógastúdiója olyan sikeres lett, hogy most nyit egy újat az óceánparton, miközben kapcsolata tízéves fiával napról napra javul. Az utolsó dolog, amire szüksége van, hogy csavar kerüljön remekül működő életének gépezetébe.
Grant Hendricks pedig nem éppen apró csavar.
Négyszer választották az év legjobb védőjátékosának az NFL-ben, háromszor gyűjtötte be a legtöbb szerelést, és általánosságban véve ő minden idők egyik legjobb focistája, de ezúttal hivatalosan is elérte a mélypontot. Egy szörnyű gerincsérülés után lehet, hogy visszavonulásra kényszerül, és ez még annál is jobban megijeszti, mint az orvosok figyelmeztetése, hogy a következő ütközéstől akár le is bénulhat. Csak egy nyugodt helyre lenne szüksége, ahol átgondolhatja a dolgokat, és a csapattársa óceánparti háza tökéletes választásnak tűnik. A gondot csak az a nő jelenti, aki szintén ott lakik.
Engedd, hogy ez a történet legyűrje minden ellenállásodat!

The Tree Is Missing
A powerful debut compelled by questions of borders and displacement. In one story I stay in that city forever,in one I board, and in another I am still waiting. I am daybreak; I am everywhere. In The Tree Is Missing, Shannon Kuta Kelly explores the poetics of the border. The collection crosses through non-places, moving between the unnamed and unmapped spaces on the edges of the European city. With remarkable poise and restraint, these itinerant poems experiment with oral history and translation, traversing the borderlines of nation, language and time. They draw on folklore to evoke a world that feels current and present, but which can only be reached through storytelling. In doing so, Kuta Kelly explores the loss and displacement - the fracture of identity - necessitated by personal and political turmoil. She writes with a restless immediacy from within the histories that continue to shape us.

Now updated for this edition, Broken Republik tells the compelling story of Germany's decline - where it all went wrong and how it could bounce back.
