Into the Fading Twilight - Starlight Grove 2
She’s known nothing but darkness for 413 days… but he’ll burn down the world to save her.
After a year in captivity, Nova Monroe is back in Starlight Grove?but she’s not the same woman who vanished. She lives on the edge, chases adrenaline, and refuses to be caged again. Cliff diving. Mountain biking. Anything to feel alive and outrun the memories clawing at her.
But the single dad with shadows of his own won’t let her face it alone. Especially when she finds herself needing a place to stay.
Kol Archer has made it his mission to protect her. As a Forest Service investigator, he’s no stranger to rugged terrain or battling for control. But nothing prepared him for Nova?her fire, her fight, the way she makes him feel something he thought was lost.
The closer they get, the more dangerous things become. Someone doesn’t want Nova to move on. And Kol is determined to stop them?no matter the cost.
Because for the first time in forever, Nova’s not just surviving. She’s learning how to live, how to trust, and reminding Kol he can, too. But as darkness looms, the truth could destroy them both…
Into the Fading Twilight is a single dad, roommates-to-lovers, small-town romance about a woman starting over and a man who will do anything to keep her safe. This book can be read as a stand-alone.
A Sudden Flicker of Light
From cinema's most distinguished and 'The best writer on film in our time' (Michael Ondaatje) comes a masterful assessment of the whole sweep of movie history
'The movies traded on the liberation of secret desires-drive that car as fast as you can; turn your humble abode into a palace; conquer all the mean spirits in the world; be as free and winsome as the Tramp yet as rich as Charlie … Every lowlife can be a Corleone.'
Every flicker of light has its shadow. In this masterful reassessment of the whole arc of movie history, David Thomson, film's wisest and most penetrating critic, shows us how cinema has entranced and transported us, but also profoundly changed us.
From the earliest days of the first picture shows to the screens of today, Thomson glories in the great movies. Sharp, arresting readings of films from Metropolis to Rear Window, The Godfather to Anora can be found in these pages. Yet there is unease, too, at how cinema suckered us into a fantasy neverland that only looks like life. Hungry for spectacle and happy endings, submitting to voyeurism and villainy, we have let films change the way we experience reality; a habit of passivity that may have even betrayed our culture and our politics.
As Thomson says, 'This is our history, and our show.' The result of a lifetime of immersion and reflection, this book is a reckoning and a testament from a writer who sees like no other.
Žirinka a Zebrička hľadajú riešenia
Kniha o Žirinke, Zebričke a ich kamarátoch prináša príbehy o hľadaní riešení aj tam, kde sa to môže zdať nemožné. Každodenné situácie plné emócií – hnevu, smútku, radosti, závisti, zahanbenia, odmietnutia, strachu či neistoty – a tiež vzťahov, kamarátstiev a prijímania odlišností ukazujú, že sa oplatí nevzdávať.
Sedem citlivých príbehov v sebe nesie posolstvá empatie, láskavosti, vzájomnej pomoci, povzbudenia a spolupatričnosti. Každý príbeh dopĺňajú zábavné hľadacie úlohy pre deti, otázky na rozhovor a odborné odporúčania pre rodičov, ktoré podporujú spoločné čítanie a porozumenie detskému svetu.
Kniha vznikla v spolupráci s psychologičkami a špeciálnymi pedagogičkami a odborníci ju odporúčajú ako cennú pomôcku pre deti aj rodičov. Podporuje rozvoj emočnej inteligencie, empatie, spolupráce a pomáha budovať pevné puto medzi dospelým a dieťaťom.
V príbehoch sa deti stretnú s témami:
- ako sa zastať kamaráta (výsmech a šikana),
- ako pomôcť druhému (deti často vidia aj to, čo dospelí prehliadajú),
- že cítiť strach a neistotu je v poriadku (budovanie bezpečia a dôvery),
- čo sa môže stať, keď nepovieme pravdu (klamstvo má rôzne podoby),
- porovnávanie a súťaženie (ak je jeden víťaz, druhý nemusí byť porazený),
- čo tvorí skutočnú rodinu (príbeh o tom, ako sa zo zebry a žirafy stali sestry).
Kniha je voľným pokračovaním titulu Žirinka a Zebrička spoznávajú emócie. Časť príbehov sa odohráva v školskom prostredí, preto je vhodná aj pre deti 1. stupňa základných škôl.
The Fabric of our Souls - Lelkünk vékony szövete
Huszonhat éves vagyok, és meg akarok halni
Amikor élve felébredek a kórházban, és a fivérem fölöttem sír, ez a pillanat mindent megváltoztat. Elintézte, hogy felvegyenek a Harlow Szentélybe, ebbe a szokatlan rehabilitációs központba, ahol újszerű módszereket alkalmaznak, egy intézetbe, aminek legendás a múltja. Itt ismerkedem meg a szobatársammal, akinek kegyetlen a tekintete és a humorérzéke az enyémnél is morbidabb. Különös vonzalom támad közöttünk.
Én a halál után sóvárgok, ő az élet után.
Képes-e két ilyen ember meggyógyítani egymást?

Avšak jedině on sám teď odmítá uvěřit, že se z ženy, kterou miluje, stal netvor, kterého vidí všichni ostatní – a udělá cokoliv, co je v jeho moci, aby ji zachránil před ní samotnou, i kdyby to znamenalo, že ji navždy ztratí. Teď, když všechny sféry ohrožuje Kadenovo vojsko a na obzoru jsou myriády nových hrozeb, si Samkiel nemůže dovolit polevit v ostražitosti. Jen on dokáže Diannu odtáhnout zpět od okraje zatracení. A zatímco Diannina krvežíznivost jen roste, dochází mu čas, aby sebe i ji zachránil.

The Solo Honeymoon
A romantic, life-affirming memoir about a young woman’s solo honeymoon to Europe after her fiancé’s sudden death weeks before their wedding, and the community of hope and wonder she built along the way
When Laura and Devon sat down to plan their honeymoon, Castellina in Chianti, Italy, was the obvious destination. Four months later, Laura found herself standing in a secret spot at the edge of the village watching the sunset. It would have been perfect, if Devon had been there with her. But Laura’s fiancé, the love of her life, had died in her arms a month before their wedding.
The Solo Honeymoon follows Laura as she faces her fears and heartbreak by going alone on the honeymoon she had planned with Devon. From screaming from the mountaintops in Ireland to wandering the busy streets of London to dining on the French Riviera and watching the sun set over Castellina, Laura travels across Europe to find solid ground. Along the way, listeners learn her unique love story and come to know Devon and what made their relationship so special.
The result is a beautiful exploration of what it means to choose life in the face of unimaginable pain. The Solo Honeymoon shines a light on the joy of love, the depths of grief, and all the beauty there is in the world.

***
You are the poem I dare not write.
It's safer to keep the perilous passages within me than to unleash them upon this stricken Earth.
Haunted by the Governor of Apollo's dark secrets, Khalani and her crew of criminals embark on a new perilous journey.

But abandoned relics and violent storms aren't the only threats on the barren road. Takeshi Steele has resumed his cold detachment, and unsettling signs suggest they aren't alone.
To survive in this unforgiving world, Khalani must draw on her strength and harrowing experiences from Apollo. For a new kind of prison awaits in the corrupt city of Hermes-one where she finds herself trapped with the man who aggravates her the most. But this time, they may not escape alive.
On the surface of the Earth, only the ruined remain.
Sharp, visceral, emotionally raw and unflinchingly real, Book 2 in the Us Dark Few series is a must-read YA adventure that continues a thrilling series from an exciting new voice.

Homesick
From the author of the Orwell Prize-winner SHOW ME THE BODIES: HOW WE LET GRENFELL HAPPEN, the gripping story of how housing defines a city's past, present and futureA Waterstones Book of the Year 2025'Apps set the gold standard with his Grenfell coverage. With Homesick, he dismantles the sham of UK housing policy – razor-sharp, stylish, and morally unflinching.' Darren McGarveyIn London, only those with vast cash deposits can get on the property ladder, private rents have spiralled out of control and the wait for social housing is measured in decades. Once vibrant communities are being uprooted, schools are closing down and homelessness is rampant. It was not always like this. In the 1980s, builders and nurses could afford family-sized homes, there was abundant social housing and long-term security for private renters. Tracing the last forty years of housing policy, Peter Apps examines this transformation, following a diverse group of Londoners as their fortunes rise and fall across the decades amid the economic forces sweeping through the city. With clear-eyed urgency, he reveals what will happen when a generation of renters retires and climate change brings fire and flood to a city unprepared for extremes. He also gives us reason to hope, exploring the ways London can transform again: from a market for private profit to a place that once more offers permanence, safety and opportunity for its citizens. A place to call home.

Nicola Harding
Having moved around a lot as a child, Harding has always been interested in creating homes that evoke a sense of belonging. After designing several homes for herself, what began as a passion grew organically into a thriving career. Today Harding is known for her quintessentially British, reassuringly familiar interiors that mix traditional charm with rich atmosphere. A sense of meaning comes from deftly weaving together expertly sourced antiques and luxurious fabrics, married with craftsmanship that has a particular significance for example, a supplier who works in a village near where a client grew up, or antiques from local dealers. With a calming, nature-inspired palette, Harding s residential projects embrace English country-house coziness and radiate a warmth that makes each place feel personal and well lived in, while her hospitality commissions are bold and spirited, often inspired by literary or historic characters. This first book delves into Harding s design philosophy, which, at its heart, prioritizes human experience above all else.
