Abstract: Fantasy, crime, and Norse gods come together when it emerges that a series of bestial murders is connected with an ancient prophecy about the end of the world. Anna can see events from the past, and one night she glimpses an old and horrible murder: a red-haired girl is killed and a rune carved into her back. Shortly afterward, someone begins killing red-haired girls in the same manner, and the rune is found on all of them. Suddenly the little town is full of strangers. They have mysterious powers, and are drawn to Anna, who isn't used to being near other people. Several of the strangers want to help her, but it takes a long time before she knows which of them she can trust. Playing on such classic themes as good versus evil, the book is at once a fantasy, a thriller, and a coming-of-age story.

Abstract: A masterful recasting of David Copperfield, narrated by an Appalachian boy whose wise, unwavering voice relates his encounters with poverty, addiction, institutional failures and moral collapse-and his efforts to conquer them. - the Pulitzer TWICE WINNER OF THE WOMEN'S PRIZE FOR FICTION WINNER OF THE PULITZER PRIZE FOR FICTION SHORTLISTED FOR THE ORWELL PRIZE FOR POLITICAL FICTION SHORTLISTED FOR THE JAMES TAIT BLACK PRIZE FOR FICTION THE MULTI-MILLION COPY SELLING AUTHOR BOOK AT BEDTIME ON BBC RADIO 4 AN OPRAH'S BOOK CLUB PICK 'Extraordinary.' OPRAH 'She means to save us by telling us stories. . . She comes closer than anyone else I know.' ANN PATCHETT 'Electrifying. . . Every sentence here sizzles.' Daily Mail 'It's EPIC. Righteously angry, DEEPLY moving and exquisitely written.' MARIAN KEYES 'A powerful tale.' Good Housekeeping 'A fantastic read.' EMILY MAITLIS 'A masterclass.' RICHARD POWERS Demon Copperhead is a once-in-a-generation novel that breaks and mends your heart in the way only the best fiction can. Demon's story begins with his traumatic birth to a single mother in a single-wide trailer, looking 'like a little blue prizefighter.' For the life ahead of him he would need all of that fighting spirit, along with buckets of charm, a quick wit, and some unexpected talents, legal and otherwise. In the southern Appalachian Mountains of Virginia, poverty isn't an idea, it's as natural as the grass grows. For a generation growing up in this world, at the heart of the modern opioid crisis, addiction isn't an abstraction, it's neighbours, parents, and friends. 'Family' could mean love, or reluctant foster care. For Demon, born on the wrong side of luck, the affection and safety he craves is as remote as the ocean he dreams of seeing one day. The wonder is in how far he's willing to travel to try and get there. Suffused with truth, anger and compassion, Demon Copperhead is an epic tale of love, loss and everything in between. 'Legit about to get an 'I'd rather be reading Demon Copperhead' sticker for my Nissan Murano.' ROB DELANEY What readers are saying: ***** 'An amazing, beautifully written story I cannot wait to recommend to everyone I know.' ***** 'Powerful and brilliant. To immerse yourself in a Kingsolver novel is to put yourself in the hands of a master.' ***** 'A must read and heart-opening book.' ***** 'Raw, angry, starkly beautiful. . . Genuinely one of the best books I've ever read.' ***** 'Amazingly complex. . . [Kingsolver] is, by far, one of the greatest living authors'

Abstract: Written from the perspective of the slaveholder, Gone with the Wind is Southern plantation fiction. Its portrayal of slavery and African Americans has been considered controversial, especially by succeeding generations, as well as its use of a racial epithet and ethnic slurs common to the period. However, the novel has become a reference point for subsequent writers of the South, both black and white. Scholars at American universities refer to, interpret, and study it in their writings. The novel has been absorbed into American popular culture. (Wikipedia)

Abstract: INSTANT #1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER A Best Book of the Year: The New Yorker, The Guardian, The Sunday Times, The Daily Mail, Good Morning America, She Reads Famed American actress Demi Moore at last tells her own story in a surprisingly intimate and emotionally charged memoir. For decades, Demi Moore has been synonymous with celebrity. From iconic film roles to high-profile relationships, Moore has never been far from the spotlight'or the headlines. Even as Demi was becoming the highest paid actress in Hollywood, however, she was always outrunning her past, just one step ahead of the doubts and insecurities that defined her childhood. Throughout her rise to fame and during some of the most pivotal moments of her life, Demi battled addiction, body image issues, and childhood trauma that would follow her for years'all while juggling a skyrocketing career and at times negative public perception.  As her success grew, Demi found herself questioning if she belonged in Hollywood, if she was a good mother, a good actress'and, always, if she was simply good enough. As much as her story is about adversity, it is also about tremendous resilience. In this deeply candid and reflective memoir, Demi pulls back the curtain and opens up about her career and personal life'laying bare her tumultuous relationship with her mother, her marriages, her struggles balancing stardom with raising a family, and her journey toward open heartedness. Inside Out is a story of survival, success, and surrender'a wrenchingly honest portrayal of one woman's at once ordinary and iconic life.

Abstract: "Sophie Loves Fähigkeit, bei ihren Lesern Magie zu bewirken, zeigt sich in ihrem höchst inspirierenden Ausdruck und den gedankenanregenden Beschreibungen..FÜR JETZT UND FÜR IMMER ist der perfekte Liebes- oder Strandroman, der sich von anderen abhebt: seine mitreißende Begeisterung und die wunderschönen Beschreibungen machen deutlich, wie komplex die Liebe und auch die Gedanken der Menschen sein können. Dieses Buch ist perfekt geeignet für Leser, die nach einem Liebesroman mit Tiefgang suchen." --Midwest Book Review (Diane Donovan zu Für jetzt und für immer) Die 35-jährige Emily Mitchell war aus New York City in das verlassene Haus ihres Vaters an der Küste von Maine gekommen, um ihrem Job, ihrer Wohnung und ihrem Ex-Freund zu entfliehen. Sie brauchte eine Veränderung in ihrem Leben und beschloss, aus dem alten Haus eine Pension zu machen. Sie hatte jedoch nie erwartet, dass ihre Beziehung zu ihrem Hausmeister Daniel ihr Leben auf den Kopf stellen würde. Weihnachten und Neujahr nähern sich schnell in Sunset Harbor, und die Geburt ihrer Tochter steht unmittelbar bevor. Während sie ihre neue Privatinsel weiterentwickeln, entsteht eine neue Geschäftsmöglichkeit - eine, die Emily nie vorausgesehen hatte und die alles verändern könnte. Roys verbliebene Lebenszeit geht schnell zu Ende, und als Weihnachten vor der Tür steht und alle mit der Vorbereitung beschäftigt sind, weiß Emily, dass dies das wertvollste ihres Lebens sein wird. Es wird eine inspirierende Ferienzeit sein, die ihr Leben für immer verändert. WEIHNACHTEN FÜR IMMER ist das Buch Nr. 8 einer bezaubernden neuen Liebesroman Reihe, die Sie zum Lachen und Weinen bringen und Sie nachts vom Schlafen abhalten wird - und Sie sich wieder neu in die Romantik verlieben lässt. "Ein sehr gut geschriebener Roman, in dem es um die inneren Kämpfe geht, die eine Frau (Emily) durchstehen muss, um ihr wahres Ich zu finden. Der Autorin gelang die Ausarbeitung der Charaktere und die Beschreibung der Handlung wunderbar. Romantik ist zwar Teil der Geschichte, doch sie ist nicht erdrückend. Ein Lob an die Autorin für diesen wunderbaren Auftakt einer Reihe, die verspricht, äußerst unterhaltsam zu werden." --Books and Movies Reviews, Roberto Mattos (zu Für jetzt und Für immer)

Abstract: #1 New York Times bestseller · Seven starred reviews · Boston Globe-Horn Book Award Honor Book "For all the struggle in this book, Thomas rarely misses a step as a writer. Thomas continues to hold up that mirror with grace and confidence. We are lucky to have her, and lucky to know a girl like Bri."-The New York Times Book Review This digital edition contains a letter from the author, deleted scenes, a picture of the author as a teen rapper, an annotated playlist, Angie's top 5 MCs, an annotated rap, illustrated quotes from the book, and an excerpt from Concrete Rose, Angie's return to Garden Heights. Sixteen-year-old Bri wants to be one of the greatest rappers of all time. Or at least win her first battle. As the daughter of an underground hip hop legend who died right before he hit big, Bri's got massive shoes to fill. But it's hard to get your come up when you're labeled a hoodlum at school, and your fridge at home is empty after your mom loses her job. So Bri pours her anger and frustration into her first song, which goes viral . . . for all the wrong reasons. Bri soon finds herself at the center of a controversy, portrayed by the media as more menace than MC. But with an eviction notice staring her family down, Bri doesn't just want to make it-she has to. Even if it means becoming the very thing the public has made her out to be.   Insightful, unflinching, and full of heart, On the Come Up is an ode to hip hop from one of the most influential literary voices of a generation. It is the story of fighting for your dreams, even as the odds are stacked against you; and about how, especially for young black people, freedom of speech isn't always free. Don't miss Concrete Rose, Angie Thomas's powerful prequel to her phenomenal bestseller, The Hate U Give!
