Princ a krása zeme / A Prince and the Beauty of the Earth
Kniha Princ a krása zeme prináša rozprávky z vyše tridsiatky krajín, v ktorých pôsobili slovenskí vojaci od roku 1993 v misiách a operáciách na podporu mieru, pričom rozprávky sú publikované v slovenčine aj v angličtine a ilustroval ich renomovaný výtvarník Martin Kellenberger.
Knihu vydala Vojenská podporná nadácia Bratislava a zostavil ju správca nadácie Milan Gajdoš. Prerozprávali ich vojaci, ktorí v zahraničnom nasadení pôsobili, no aj diplomati, novinári, charitatívni pracovníci či cestovatelia. Súčasťou 378 stranovej knihy je príloha s údajmi o slovenskom zastúpení v jednotlivých operáciách medzinárodného krízového manažmentu, ktorú zostavil publicista Pavol Vitko.
Na ilustráciu: rozprávka Začarované bociany je z Iraku, Dedova rada z Lotyšska, o tom že Dom bez ženy je ako pec bez cesta sa hovorí v rozprávke z Afganistanu, cyperská rozprávka má názov Hodža Aslant – drevorubač, Muž, ktorý robí dobro je zo Sýrie, Hadí kráľ a statočný roľník Vasva z Ugandy, Princ a jeho osud je z Egypta, Teklova koza z Eritrei, Malin Kundag a jeho mamka z Východného Timoru, Kráľov roh je zo Severného Macedónska, Starenka bylinkárka a zlodej z Kuvajtu, Dievča – žabka z Chorvátska a trebárs Princ a krása zeme je z Kosova. Dodajme, že slovenská rozprávka je autorská, napísal ju Ľubomír Feldek a volá sa Keď Pán Boh a Svätý Peter chodili po Slovensku. Ľubomír Feldek pre deti jednu z rozprávok aj prebásnil. Jej názov je Prečo sa opica podobá človeku a pochádza z Mali.
Úsmev je život. Smile every day.
Úsmev je život. Smile every day. je názov dvojjazyčnej knihy autorky Mirky Zahradníkovej. Obsahuje vyše 70 slovenských vtipov preložených do anglického jazyka so slovníčkom a frázami na tej iste strane. Vtipy sú zo školského, lekárskeho a cestovateľského prostredia. Kniha má komplexnejší charakter. Prináša aj rozhovory s dvoma lekármi, informácie o tom, ako smiech pomáha liečiť. Konkrétne ako smiech pomohol cukrovkárom zlepšiť ich medicínske parametre a iné zaujímavé fakty o smiechu. Autorkiným zámerom je prispieť k zopakovaniu si angličtiny humornou formou, motivovať k dlhodobému učeniu sa cudzieho jazyka. Ponúka príležitosť zaujať v spoločnosti vtipmi v angličtine. V neposlednom rade cez úsmev uzdravovať choré bunky v tele. Mottom Mirky Zahradníkovej je: SMEJME SA A BUĎME ZDRAVÍ!

What comes next is a story of friendship and rivalry, fame and creativity, betrayal and tragedy, perfect worlds and imperfect ones. And, ultimately, our need to connect: to be loved and to love.
Daisy Jones and The Six
THE SUNDAY TIMES AND NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLERA Daily Mirror best fiction pick of 2019A Daily Express best book of 2019'I LOVE it . . .
I can't remember the last time I read a book that was so fun' DOLLY ALDERTON
They were the new icons of rock and roll, fated to burn bright and not fade away. But on 12 July 1979, it all came crashing down. There was Daisy, rock and roll force of nature, brilliant songwriter and unapologetic drug addict, the half-feral child who rose to superstardom.
There was Camila, the frontman's wife, too strong-willed to let the band implode - and all too aware of the electric connection between her husband and Daisy. There was Karen, ice-cool keyboardist, a ferociously independent woman in a world that wasn't ready for her. And there were the men surrounding them: the feuding, egotistical Dunne brothers, the angry guitarist chafing on the sidelines, the drummer binge-drinking on his boat, the bassist trying to start a family amid a hedonistic world tour.
They were creative minds striking sparks from each other, ready to go up in flames. It's never just about the music...

HEPHZIBAH ANDERSON, MAIL ON SUNDAY'The characters leap off the page, seducing you with their dramas, and making you wish the band was real.'

While the girls try to understand what's happening and how to send Audrey home, their sparks make a comeback in a most unexpected way - instead of falling for their suitors and the happily-ever-afters everyone expects of them, they fall for each other. Can their love story survive impossible circumstances? A swoony time-travelling YA romance set in the regency era about finding your spark - a lesbian Jane Austen story.

Komor elemek 3: Every Last Breath - Utolsó lélegzetig
Van olyan szerelem, ami az utolsó lélegzetvételig tart.
Minden döntés következményekkel jár – a tizenhét éves Laylának azonban a szokásosnál nehezebb döntéseket kell meghoznia. Fény vagy sötétség. Roth, az átkozottul szexi démonherceg, vagy Zayne, a gyönyörű és gondoskodó őrző, akiről Layla azt gondolta, sosem lehet az övé...
A lánynak ráadásul azt is el kell döntenie, hogy önmaga melyik oldalában bízhat. Emellett egy új problémával is szembe kell néznie: egy lilin – a létező démonok leghalálosabbika – szabadon garázdálkodik, és az a célja, hogy mindent és mindenkit elpusztítson maga körül, beleértve Layla legjobb barátját is. Hogy megvédje Samet egy olyan végzettől, ami sokkal-sokkal rosszabb a halálnál, Laylának alkut kell kötnie az ellenséggel, és meg kell mentenie a várost és a faját a pusztulástól.
Két világ és két fiú között őrlődve Layla semmiben sem biztos, legkevésbé a túlélésben, és a helyzet tovább fokozódik, amikor egy múltbeli alku újra felszínre kerül. De néha, amikor az embert titkok veszik körül, és az igazság kifürkészhetetlennek tűnik, nem tehet mást, mint hogy hallgat a szívére, választ egy oldalt, és harcol, ameddig bírja szusszal.
A Komor elemek dark románc YA-sorozat befejező része; démoni szerelmi történet, amelyben földöntúli erők és érzelmek csapnak össze.
Vesd bele magad!

Narodil sa a vyrastal v Nantes, ako štvorročný sa začal učiť hru na klavíri a počas štúdia našiel inšpiráciu v jednom z londýnskych klubov. Jeho debutový štúdiový album „Chaleur humaine“ (2014) získal uznanie kritiky, dostal sa na 2. miesto vo francúzskom aj britskom rebríčku a vo Francúzsku bol certifikovaný ako diamantový; bola to tiež najpredávanejšia debutová nahrávka v Spojenom kráľovstve. V roku 2018 vydal svoj druhý štúdiový album „Chris“, ktorý si získal ďalšie uznanie u kritikov. Clash, The Guardian a The Independent ho označili za album roka a umiestnili sa v prvej desiatke z deviatich ďalších koncoročných zoznamov. Skladbu „Girlfriend“ ocenil časopis Time ako pieseň roka. V reakcii na smrť svojej matky vydal Letissier v roku 2020 EP“La vita nuova“, pričom niektorí kritici ho označili za jeho doteraz najsilnejšie dielo. „PARANOIA, ANGELS, TRUE LOVE“ je napísaný, nahraný a produkovaný Christine and the Queens, s koprodukciou Mikea Deana (Lana Del Rey, Beyonce) s hosťami ako 070 Shake a Madonna.
