No Name Bastard
Our most vivid memories can be our greatest teachers. There are moments that fade from our thoughts just as quickly as they occurred, and there are others that stay with us forever.

Those experiences are where our characters and defining qualities are built and earned. However, if those experiences are challenging, it’s easy to get stuck in the struggle and become a victim to your past. Our histories are important, but the futures we create from them are immensely more crucial. So, how do we learn enough from our pasts to keep moving forward? How do we reflect on our lives in way that’s constructive, rather than restrainin? n her debut book, No Name Bastard, Tori DaCosta helps you to do just that. She vividly recounts a collection of her most unforgettable moments and the lessons she learned from them. DaCosta calls you to learn not just from her life, but from your own as well. The result is a vulnerable and inspiring text that will teach how to embrace life’s challenges and use them to become the best version of yourself.

Windswept
From New York Times bestselling and Newbery Honor–winning author Margi Preus, a gripping middle-grade fantasy about a girl who must save the children of her world from being “windswept.”In Tag’s world, children are disappearing. “Youngers” who venture Outside are windswept—vanishing in the swirling snow—Tag’s sisters among them. Many have tried to find the lost children; all have failed. And since the Other Times, the Powers That Be seem intent on keeping it that way. Little remains from those times: snippets of songs, heaps of plastic trash, and a few banned texts—including a book of fairy tales. An unlikely crew of Youngers join forces—Boots, who can climb anything, Ant, who will eat anything, Ren, who will say anything, and Tag, who doesn’t appear to have any talent whatsoever. With their dubious skills, the fairy tales, a possibly magic ribbon, and an unwillingness to accept “that’s impossible,” they set off to rescue their windswept siblings in this spellbinding fantasy. Includes a map and black-and-white illustrations by award-winning artist Armando Veve

Whether you are healing from a past breakup or ready to navigate the modern dating world with fresh eyes, Unsingle is your wake-up call. It’s time to stop settling for romantic chaos and start building the love you truly deserve. "Amy Chan gets it. She cuts through the nonsense and gives you the real talk about love.If you want to stop dating like you're stuck in Groundhog Day, read this book." —John Kim, LMFT, author of The Angry Therapist

A Géniusz Focikvíz a tévénézők szeretetét már elnyerő vetélkedőműsor készítőinek tematikus különkiadványa, amely a 2026-os világbajnoksághoz kapcsolódva teszi próbára a kvíz- és focirajongók ismereteit.
Kvízkérdéseket megoldani jóval több, mint egyszerű kikapcsolódás: kinek szórakozás, kinek játék, kinek sport, kinek szenvedély, kinek mindez együtt. Ugyanezt elmondhatjuk a labdarúgásról is, kiegészítve azzal, hogy a foci mindemellett stratégiák egymásnak feszülése, labdával vívott háború, ihletett pillanatokban pedig nagybetűs Művészet.
A Géniusz Focikvíz a tévénézők szeretetét már elnyerő vetélkedőműsor készítőinek tematikus különkiadványa, amely a 2026-os világbajnoksághoz kapcsolódva teszi próbára a kvíz- és focirajongók ismereteit. A feladványok bajnokságok és kupaküzdelmek felejthetetlen pillanatait idézik fel, napjaink sztárjaihoz és a múlt legendáihoz kötődő tudásunkat tesztelik, olyan gólokra emlékeztetnek, melyek földön túli örömöket okoztak - vagy melyeket legszívesebben örökre elfelejtenénk.
Melyik edzőt szokás a Special One, azaz a Különleges néven emlegetni? Melyik az egyetlen válogatott, amelyik részt vett minden eddigi világbajnokságon? Ki szerezte 2026-ig a legtöbb gólt a Bajnokok Ligájában? Melyik magyar játékos lőtt gólt a franciáknak a 2020-as Európa-bajnokságon? Hányszor lépett pályára az Aranycsapat a klasszikus Grosics - Buzánszky, Lóránt, Lantos - Bozsik, Zakariás - Budai II., Kocsis, Hidegkuti, Puskás, Czibor felállásban?

Sublimation
What would you sacrifice for a different life?
When you emigrate, you leave a version of yourself behind. Literally. One instance crosses the border; the other instance stays trapped behind it.
Some instances keep in touch, call each other daily, synchronize their lives and minds in the hopes of reintegrating and resuming a life as one person. Other instances, like Soyoung Rose Kang, leave home at age ten and never speak to their other selves again.
With a life of her own in New York, Rose never imagined she’d return to Korea. Then her grandfather dies and Soyoung, her Korean instance, summons her home for the funeral. But Soyoung’s motives aren’t as innocent as Rose imagined, and the consequences of Rose’s return to Seoul will change her forever.
Sublimation is a story of doppelgängers and corporate intrigue, heartbreak and betrayal. Nebula Award-winning author Isabel J. Kim has written an immigrant tale like no other, capturing the longing for another life and twisting it into a dangerous game of cat-and-mouse.
Návrh, 2. vydání

Jestli chce upoutat pozornost kluka, do kterého se zakoukala, musí vystoupit ze své ulity a udělat všechno, co bude potřeba, aby si jí všiml… I kdyby to znamenalo výměnou za předstírané rande doučovat namyšleného kapitána univerzitního hokejového týmu.

1966
'The great book on 1966 that needed writing.'PAUL HAYWARD, OBSERVER'Panoramic and polemic.'JONATHAN NORTHCROFT, SUNDAY TIMES-A vivid portrait of the world in 1966, centred around the storied World Cup tournament and its backdrop, published to mark the 60th anniversary. 1966, with London declared ‘a swinging city’ and John Lennon proclaiming the Beatles ‘more popular than Jesus’, the year’s football World Cup convenes an international community standing at an inflection point, emerging from the long shadow of the Second World War and hurtling towards the future. Propelled by social change, civil rights movements and technological advancement serve as beacons of hope and possibility.Yet, Cold War tensions, the escalation of the Vietnam War, and the space race between America and the Soviet Union project a different image. As China’s Cultural Revolution begins, and talks are initiated to reunify Germany, football has the potential to inflame ideological rivalries, unite old enemies, and allow nations to demonstrate their prowess on a global stage. Through the prism of the extraordinary tournament and the eight teams that reached the quarter finals – England, West Germany, Uruguay, Argentina, Portugal, Soviet Union, North Korea and Hungary – Michael Calvin provides a vivid portrait of a critical moment in world history.Examining the sporting, social and cultural significance of the competition and its backdrop, this hugely entertaining book brings to life a world and a sport caught in a tide of change, and shows how this critical year would change both forever. -'England’s one World Cup victory needed this book. An absorbing account of what 1966 actually meant...by the writer who has covered more aspects of how the English game actually works than any other.'MIGUEL DELANEY, INDEPENDENT'A tremendous accomplishment. Rich, compelling and highly readable.'SEB STAFFORD-BLOOR, THE ATHLETIC
The Paranoid Style in American Politics
The classic and very funny account of the dark side of American politics
'Calm, clear, dispassionate and devastating - and a joy to read' Harper's
'Brilliant and influential … his evisceration of populism has found a new generation of readers' Guardian
'American political life … has served again and again as an arena for uncommonly angry minds'
How can a country be captured by rumours, surreal conspiracy theories and the most brazen of conmen? The historian Richard Hofstadter asked these questions in the 1960s, amid fears of rising extremism in America. Yet his dazzling dissection of the paranoid worldview - a brew of overheated exaggeration, suspicion and perceived victimhood that can derail entire nations - is a lesson for the ages in the seductive politics of the irrational.
In an era where we ourselves feel assailed by endless paranoid public statements it is comforting to read Hofstadter's incisive refusal to see these as something new. In his discussion of famous and obscure untruths, some of which have profoundly impacted American domestic and foreign policy, he provides the antidote for the present day.
'The Paranoid Style in American Politics' was first published as an essay in Harper's Magazine in late 1964 and has been argued over ever since.
