A fun alphabet primer celebrating the month-long Muslim observance of fasting and spiritual awareness.

Ramadan is a month-long observance when Muslims all over the world spend more time with each other, emphasize charitable works, fast, pray, and break their daily fast each night together. It’s a time meant to focus on things such as sharing, empathy, compassion, generosity, and selflessness. These ideals are wonderfully illustrated here in Greg Paprocki’s inimitable style for each of the 26 letters of the alphabet.

Join a young girl and her family in this Step 2 reader as they celebrate Eid-al-fitr, a holiday that marks the end of the Islamic holy month of Ramadan. Perfect for readers ages 4-6.

It’s Eid-al-fitr—the last day of Ramadan, which means it is the last day for Rabia to fast with the rest of her family and she has never done it before. Rabia is so excited! She eats just before sunrise and then the day of fasting begins! Rabia gets to have her hands painted with henna, wear a new dress, and put her family’s donation in the box at the mosque. It’s a special Eid all around!

Step 2 Readers use basic vocabulary and short sentences to tell simple stories, for children who recognize familiar words and can sound out new words with help.

This charming early learning board book takes a very first look at Ramadan! It's perfect for babies and toddlers learning about the story behind this Islamic holiday.

Introduce your little one to the traditions of Ramadan and the festivities of Eid al-Fitr with this first picture book. It's ideal for storytime and provides lots of opportunities for parent-and-child interaction.

From the first sight of the crescent moon to the deliciously sweet dates that are eaten after a day of fasting, this Islamic book brings the celebrations of Ramadan to life through engaging, real-life photos. It's clear and easy for babies and toddlers to follow with one main image per page they can focus on.

The simple language and short text are great for reading aloud and encourages language development for children 0-3 years old. The strong board pages are designed especially for little hands. It's easy to grab to help with early motor control. Preschoolers will love turning the pages themselves, naming objects, and learning all about the holy month of Ramadan.

¿Quién imaginaría que la cura perfecta ronronea?

En un oscuro callejón de Kioto se esconde la Clínica Kokoro, un lugar envuelto en misterio al que solo llegan quienes más lo necesitan. Su peculiar tratamiento consiste en "prescribir" gatos, una solución que desconcierta a los pacientes, pero que guarda el potencial de cambiar sus vidas.

Guiados por el excéntrico Dr. Nike y su malhumorada enfermera Chitose, los pacientes buscan respuestas: un joven administrador, cómo recuperar la alegría tras perder su empleo; una madre agotada, la forma de reconectar con su hija; una diseñadora, el descanso que tanto necesita; y una geisha, el consuelo tras una pérdida dolorosa. Cada uno enfrenta sus conflictos internos mientras encuentra en sus compañeros felinos una inesperada guía, demostrando que, a veces, el amor y la compañía de un gato pueden ser el primer paso hacia la sanación.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

Who would have thought the perfect cure purrs?

In a dark alley in Kyoto lies the Kokoro Clinic, a mysterious place that only those in true need manage to find. Its unique treatment involves "prescribing" cats, a solution that baffles patients but holds the potential to change their lives.

Guided by the eccentric Dr. Nike and his moody nurse, Chitose, the patients seek answers: a young administrator, trying to regain joy after losing his job; an exhausted mother, searching for a way to reconnect with her daughter; a designer, desperate for the rest she craves; and a geisha, longing for solace after a painful loss. Each one faces their inner struggles while finding an unexpected guide in their feline companions, proving that sometimes, the love and presence of a cat can be the first step toward healing.

Khaled Hosseini escribe un relato profundamente conmovedor sobre los refugiados, un homenaje a los millones de familias a las que la guerra y la persecución han separado y obligado a abandonar sus hogares.

Mi querido Marwan: veo tu perfil a la luz de esta luna, hijo mío, la caligrafía de tus pestañas cerradas en un sueño inocente.Te dije: «Dame la mano. Nada malo va a pasar.»

En una orilla bañada por la luz de la luna, un padre acuna a su hijo dormido, esperando el alba y la llegada de un barco. Le habla sobre el largo verano de su infancia, evocando la casa de su abuelo en Siria, los olivos que se mecen con la brisa, los balidos de las cabras de su abuela, el tintineo de las ollas. Recuerda también el bullicio de la ciudad de Homs, con sus calles atestadas, su mezquita y su gran zoco, días antes de que el cielo escupiera bombas y se vieran obligados a huir.

Cuando el sol amanezca, ellos y quienes los rodean tendrán que reunir sus posesiones y embarcarse en un peligroso viaje a través del mar en busca de un nuevo hogar.

DESCRIPTION IN ENGLISH

A short, powerful, illustrated book written by beloved novelist Khaled Hosseini in response to the current refugee crisis, Sea Prayer is composed in the form of a letter, from a father to his son, on the eve of their journey. Watching over his sleeping son, the father reflects on the dangerous sea-crossing that lies before them. It is also a vivid portrait of their life in Homs, Syria, before the war, and of that city's swift transformation from a home into a deadly war zone. Impelled to write this story by the haunting image of young Alan Kurdi, the three-year-old Syrian boy whose body washed upon the beach in Turkey in September 2015, Hosseini hopes to pay tribute to the millions of families, like Kurdi's, who have been splintered and forced from home by war and persecution, and he will donate author proceeds from this book to the UNHCR (the UN Refugee Agency) and The Khaled Hosseini Foundation to help fund lifesaving relief efforts to help refugees around the globe.

EL LIBRO DEL AÑO PARA VULTURE, LITHUB, THE GUARDIAN Y COSMOPOLITAN.

Llevamos décadas intentando comprender a los sociópatas y su psique. Por primera vez, una de ellas se confiesa.

Desde muy pequeña, Patric se dio cuenta de que su presencia provocaba cierta incomodidad. Sospechaba que la causa era su incapacidad para sentir emociones tan primarias como el miedo o la culpa, y la empatía era un término que le resultaba ajeno. Así que empezó a hacerse pasar por una más. Pero la incomprensión del resto y su rechazo hacia las personas como ella acabó siendo insoportable. Con la intención de sentir lo mismo que sentía su entorno, se puso a robar, mentir e incluso apuñaló a una compañera de clase con un lápiz.

NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER.

BOOK OF THE YEAR BY VULTURE, LITHUB, THE GUARDIAN, AND COSMOPOLITAN.

For decades, we've tried to understand sociopaths and their psyche. For the first time, one of them confesses.

From a very young age, Patric realized that her presence made people uncomfortable. She suspected the reason was her inability to feel such basic emotions as fear or guilt, and empathy was a concept completely foreign to her. So, she began pretending to be like everyone else. But the misunderstanding and rejection she faced became unbearable. In an attempt to experience the same emotions as those around her, she turned to stealing, lying, and even stabbing a classmate with a pencil.

«Ha creado una voz auténtica y poderosa». --The Independent

A partir de diecinueve fotografías de Nueva York, la autora narra la vida de Lola, una joven a quien su madre dejó a los ocho años para perseguir una carrera como actriz en la Gran Manzana. Marcada por este abandono primigenio, Lola ha vivido una vida de complejos y carencia emocional. Todo cambia cuando recibe la llamada de un desconocido que le advierte de que su madre ha desaparecido y se embarca en la difícil labor de hallar a una mujer que apenas conoce. El viaje de Lola será hacia lo más profundo de la esencia humana y de sí misma. Una travesía donde no todo es lo que parece.

"A powerfully authentic voice." - The Independent

"The rain continued to beat against the window, constant and gray, hidden inside itself like a snail in its shell. In your clothes, I sensed your elusive presence, your escaping spirit."

Building on nineteen photographs in New York, the author tells the story of Lola, a girl whose mother left her at the age of eight to pursue an acting career in the Big Apple. Scarred by her early experience of abandonment, Lola lives an emotionally empty and neurotic life. Everything changes when she gets a call from a stranger reporting that her mother has disappeared. Suddenly, she finds herself in the position of tracking down woman she barely knows. Her quest leads her deep inside herself and the essence of what it means to be human, on a journey where nothing is as it seems.

"De manera interesante y provocativa, Pamela Jean aborda diversos aspectos sobre las emociones y su gestión, utilizando la analogía de la alquimia como un recurso que permite discutir y divulgar de manera amena y creativa la búsqueda del bienestar más allá de la ciencia." Dr. Rafael Bisquerra

En la vida, como en la alquimia, la clave está en tener los conocimientos para transmutar y convertir en oro lo que se presente en tu camino. Tu destino no está escrito. Cada día es una oportunidad nueva para detenerte, poner un ojo apreciativo en el presente y encontrar el potencial en lo que tienes. Tanto tu mentalidad como tu libertad de elección son recursos que no debes tomar a la ligera, pues es por medio de ellos que construyes tu experiencia de vida. Tienes la oportunidad de alterar lo que te sucede a través del pensamiento y la atención conscientes --como lo haría un sabio alquimista en su laboratorio-- y así obtener grandes riquezas.

"Al terminar de leer La alquimia del pensamiento, quedarás pasmado, incrédulo con todo lo que descubrirás y, al mismo tiempo, ansioso de poner en práctica tantas enseñanzas y conocimientos. Te aseguro: ¡te lo vas a devorar! ¿Listo para atravesar este portal y transportarte? Entonces, ¡sácale todo el provecho posible!" --Dr. César Lozano, "El portal hacia la alquimia"

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

"Pamela Jean takes an interesting and provocative approach to various aspects of human emotions and how to manage them, using alchemy as an analogy in an accessible and creative discussion that looks beyond science to find wellbeing."- Dr. Rafael Bisquerra

Life, like alchemy, is about knowing how to turn base elements into gold. Our fates aren't sealed: Every day is a new opportunity to stop, appreciate the moment, and find potential in what's around us. Our mindset and freedom of choice are resourcs not to be taken likely, for they are how we build our lived experiences. Like alchemists, we have the power to transmute them and turn them into riches through thought and awareness.

"The Alchemy of Thought will leave you amazed, incredulous at all you have discovered, and eager to put its teachings and wisdom into practice. I guarantee: You will devour it! Ready to go through that door and be transported? Take full advantage of it!" - Dr. César Lozano, El portal hacia la alquimia

"Y sí, la muerte irrumpió en mi vida y la devastó. Pero estuve resuelto a no permitir que me remolcara con ella." Esta ambiciosa novela confirma a Arriaga como uno de los escritores más potentes, intensos y originales de la literatura contemporánea. 

A sus diecisiete años Juan Guillermo se ha quedado huérfano y completamente solo. Tres años atrás, Carlos, su hermano mayor, ha sido asesinado por unos fanáticos religiosos; abatidos por el pesar, sus padres y su abuela mueren. En el extremo de la rabia y la desesperación, Juan Guillermo jura vengarse. El problema es que los jóvenes religiosos están muy bien organizados, gozan del respaldo de gente poderosa, portan armas, han entrenado artes marciales y, para colmo, están coludidos con Zurita, un comandante de la policía judicial. Con esta permanente sensación de vendetta convive una entrañable historia de amor que impide que el protagonista se deslice hacia el vórtice de la autodestrucción.

En paralelo corre la historia de Amaruq, un hombre que en los helados bosques del Yukón se obsesiona en perseguir a un lobo y cuya travesía lo conduce hacia las profundidades de la locura y la muerte.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

Juan Guillermo is a teenager who in a matter of a few months looses his brother Carlos, his grandmother, and his parents. The culprits are a group of fundamentalist Catholics that are convinced that is their purpose in life, to rid the world of society's scum. They are conspiring with Captain Zurita who was upset with Carlos for not giving him a share of the earnings from his illegal businesses.
So, they drowned him, and once his parents returned all they found was a casket. But Juan Guillermo decides to take vengeance...

La vida adulta puede ser muy desafiante, sobre todo a nivel emocional. Por ello, esta guía amorosa y paciente, que Daniela y Jimena --las mentes maestras detrás del proyecto Buenavibracamp-- han creado es un gran apapacho; sobre todo si estás en un proceso de autoconocimiento y ya decidiste que quieres dejar atrás los malos hábitos.

"El autoconocimiento es un proceso continuo y los altibajos son momentos que nos ayudan a profundizar y explorar nuestras múltiples capas. Reconocer qué te está frenando, ya sea una barrera interna o externa, te permitirá encontrar maneras de adaptarte y seguir adelante.

El verdadero desafío es ser constante a pesar de la incomodidad. La constancia no es perfección, es seguir moviéndote, aunque no siempre sea en línea recta. Recuerda ser paciente contigo mismo mientras aprendes a identificar las fluctuaciones y encuentras estrategias para sobrellevarlas y seguir adelante. Los resultados no son inmediatos, y eso está bien. No se trata de apresurarse hacia el resultado, sino de disfrutar el proceso."

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

Adult life can be challenging, especially at the emotional level. In response, Daniela and Jimena --the masterminds behind the Buenavibracamp project-- have created this loving and patient guide that is the equivalent of a big hug for anyone working to improve their self-knowledge and leave bad habits behind.

"Self-knowledge is an ongoing process whose highs and lows are opportunities to uncover our many layers. Recognizing the obstacles that are holding you back, whether internal or external, is the first step toward finding ways to adapt and move forward.

The real challenge is persevering, even if it isn't always comfortable. Perseverance doesn't mean perfection; it means forging ahead and realizing that progress may not be linear. Being patient with yourself is essential as you learn to identify these fluctuations and develop strategies for navigating them. The results aren't immediate, and that's good. The point isn't to rush toward your goals but rather to enjoy the process of attaining them."

"Veinte relatos en torno a las peripecias posmodernas que, contados con humor negro, evidencian la inocencia con la que nos entregamos a un estilo de vida, sin comprender que ofrecemos el cuello como víctimas desde la comodidad del hogar y a un clic de distancia del posible asesino. De El vampiro del Bed and Breakfast, que va sembrando cadáveres donde se hospeda, a Jackie, la sensual repartidora de comida que entra en la casa de sus solitarios clientes y los ejecuta, pasando por Bartolo Gomer en La rebelión de los de en medio, quien provoca una revolución incendiaria en un gris corporativo de oficinistas, estos cuentos relatan cómo, en pos del éxito y la "calidad de vida", hemos construido pequeños infiernos a través de la tecnología, la persecución de la productividad y la devoción por absurdos propósitos que, antes o después, se vuelven contra nosotros. Los protagonistas de estas historias mutan de buenas personas -incluso buenos objetos como La mesa de siempre- a seres que permiten que su lado oscuro se asome como una conquista de libertad. Desobedecen, renuncian, traicionan, matan y se dejan poseer por ese Diablo frágil que, como decía Fernando Pessoa, corrompe pero ilumina."--Back cover.

Un festín para quienes saben que comer también es una forma de contar historias.

«Como y recuerdo, recuerdo y como». Con ese mantra como guía, Benito Taibo regresa a los sabores, olores y texturas que han marcado su vida. En este segundo tomo de Cuchara y memoria, que abarca de la langosta al zapato, el autor continúa hurgando en su historia personal y en la memoria colectiva para revivir aquellas comidas que le han provocado asombro, nostalgia, risas y, también, más de una decepción memorable.

Aquí no hay reglas ni jueces: cada quien tiene su forma de «agarrar el taco». Y lo importante, insiste, no es solo recordar, sino divertirse en el camino. Este libro es una invitación a leer con hambre y a compartir el viaje de un autor que escribe con honestidad, humor y un enorme amor por la comida.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

A feast for those who know that eating is also a way of telling stories.

"I eat and remember, I remember and eat." With that mantra as his guide, Benito Taibo returns to the flavors, scents, and textures that have shaped his life. In this second volume of Cuchara y memoria (Spoon and Memory), which ranges from lobster to shoe, the author continues to dig into his personal history and collective memory to revisit those meals that have sparked wonder, nostalgia, laughter, and also more than one memorable disappointment.

Here, there are no rules or judges: everyone has their own way of "grabbing the taco." And what matters, he insists, is not just remembering, but having fun along the way. This book is an invitation to read with hunger and to share the journey of an author who writes with honesty, humor, and a deep love for food.

Two women. One dead husband. And only one alibi.

“Elston expertly unravels a web of secrets and lies. You won’t be able to put this excellent thriller down until the final shocking page.” —Megan Miranda

Everyone at Chantilly’s Bar noticed out-of-towner Camille Bayliss. Red lips, designer heels, sipping a Negroni. But that woman wasn’t Camille Bayliss. It was Aubrey Price.

Camille Bayliss appears to have the picture-perfect life; she’s married to hotshot lawyer Ben and is the daughter of a wealthy Louisiana family. Only nothing is as it seems: Camille believes Ben has been hiding dirty secrets for years, but she can’t find proof because he tracks her every move.

Aubrey Price has been haunted by the terrible night that changed her life a decade ago, and she’s convinced Benjamin Bayliss knows something about it. Living in a house full of criminals, Aubrey understands there’s more than one way to get to the truth—and she may have found the best way in.

Aubrey and Camille hatch a plan. It sounds simple: For twelve hours, Aubrey will take Camille’s place. Camille will spy on Ben, and the two women will get the answers they desperately seek.

Except the next morning, Ben is found murdered. Both women need an airtight alibi, but only one of them has it. And one false step is all it takes for everything to come undone.

In this hilarious gay fantasy romance, a reclusive sorcerer is forced to protect a cowardly knight after a prophecy ties their fates together. Funny, touching and inventive, this brilliant debut is perfect for fans of Django Wexler and Dreadful.

In Which Many Dangerous and Homosexual Things Happen.

All his life, Sir Cameron has stayed as far away from danger as possible. He is quite frankly too handsome to die a pointless death in battle. But then the Church hands down a prophecy to his fellow knights: the only way to defeat their nemesis, the mad sorcerer Merulo, is to kill Sir Cameron. Short of ideas, Cameron throws himself on the mercy of the one person who now actually wants him to survive: the mad sorcerer.

Merulo isn’t thrilled to be babysitting a spoilt, attention-seeking knight, but transmogrifying him into a vulture is at least entertaining. Cameron, meanwhile, is on a voyage of self-discovery. It turns out he’s really, really into surly sorcerers who lock him up and tell him what to do. Who knew?

As a legion of knights surround their stronghold, the sorcerer’s poisonous ambitions draw ever closer to fruition. Cameron is quite invested in not dying, but he finds he’s also invested in Merulo. And sometimes, supporting the sorcerer you care about means taking an interest in their hobbies. Even if that hobby is trying to kill God.

Even if it might get you killed, too.

Fall in love with this laugh-out loud, genre-bending romp full of concussed elves and queer romance like you've never seen before.

Buenos Aires, Argentina, 1768. It is a dark and foreboding night when the boat arrives from Europe, bringing three shadowy figures to shore. Before long, the Maria sisters will take the New World by storm. In the coming years, they wend their way from town to town, assisting women in need and wreaking vengeance against the men who've wronged them. At once fiercely righteous and gleefully malevolent, the sisterhood of witches exert their powers across centuries, from the 1700s to the present, leaving a wreckage of shattered and impotent men in their wake. Told as a fractured narrative, through the eyes of the people whose lives the sisters have cast asunder, Witchcraft is a mesmerising mystery to piece together. This masterpiece of a graphic novel combines strange magic, absurdist humour, and a fiery undercurrent of female rage, to tell a heady tale of colonialism, feminism, and indigenous folklore. Hand drawn in a playful, kinetic cartoon style, with a vibrant colour palette, this experimental, eerie, and hilarious work assures Sole Otero as one of the most dynamic comics artists in South America - and everywhere.

"It's hard to imagine there's light when we are so deep in the darkness. But it's there, so let's keep walking."

Sometimes, to find The Most Beautiful Place in the World, we must traverse foreboding terrain.

As beloved friends Big Panda and Tiny Dragon journey to find the lost land, there are moments when the dense forests, hazardous mountains, derelict ruins, and dark caves, and the feelings they bring, threaten to overwhelm them. But, together, they find the will to keep on walking. Each environment, so menacing at first, slowly yields glimmers of life, light, and beauty.

In an exploration of life-affirming friendship, struggle, and hope, Big Panda and Tiny Dragon learn the immense power of looking for beauty in the most unlikely places.

A READ WITH JENNA TODAY SHOW BOOK CLUB PICK • “A wildly good time . . . a swoony, funny, romantic novel” (Rebecca Serle, New York Times bestselling author of In Five Years) about a woman thrown a curveball by fate, and the family secret that makes her question everything.

“Warm, lush, addictive, with just the right amount of magic.” —Veronica Roth, #1 New York Times bestselling author of Divergent

“Meet my new favorite book!” —Katherine Center, New York Times bestselling author of The Bodyguard

She knows what her happily ever after looks like. And it’s not him.

Cassia Park believes in soul mates. Fated love stories. It’s her family business, after all—for centuries, from Korea to Los Angeles, Park women have peered into clients’ past lives to find their one true love, their fated. This magical secret is why One & Only Matchmaking has a 100% guarantee…for everyone but Cassia.

For ten years, Cass has been searching for her fated, a man named Daniel Nam. But he’s still nowhere to be found.

And so, on the eve of her 40th birthday, Cass decides to do something for herself. She impulsively has a fling with Ellis. He’s twenty-eight, indecently handsome, and not destined to be the love of her life. But she’s surprised by their connection and their fling feels like something more—up to the moment he introduces her to his boss…Daniel Nam.

As she battles between fate and chance, head and heart, a family secret is revealed that will make her question everything she’s ever known. Cassia will have to decide if she’ll follow her fate…or make her own.

DELUXE EDITION—the hardcover edition of The Red Winter features beautiful red sprayed edges!

A devastating love story. A bewitching twist on history. A blood-drenched hunt for purpose, power, and redemption. 

In 1785, Professor Sebastian Grave receives the news he fears most: the terrible Beast of Gévaudan has returned, and the French countryside runs red in its wake. 

Sebastian knows the Beast. A monster-slayer with centuries of experience, he joined the hunt for the creature twenty years ago and watched it slaughter its way through a long and bloody winter. Even with the help of his indwelling demon, Sarmodel – who takes payment in living hearts – it nearly cost him his life to bring the monster down.

Now, two decades later, Sebastian has been recalled to the hunt by Antoine Avenel d’Ocerne, an estranged lover who shares a dark history with the Beast and a terrible secret with Sebastian. Drawn by both the chance to finish the Beast for good and the promise of a reconciliation with Antoine, Sebastian cannot refuse. 

But Gévaudan is not as he remembers it, and Sebastian’s unfinished business is everywhere he looks. Years of misery have driven the people to desperation, and France teeters on the edge of revolution. Sebastian’s arcane activities – not to mention his demonic counterpart – have also attracted the inquisitorial eye of the French clergy. And the Beast is poised to close his jaws around them all and plunge the continent into war. 

Debut author Cameron Sullivan tears the heart out of history with this darkly entertaining retelling of the hunt for the Beast of Gévaudan. Lifting the veil on the hidden world behind our own, it reimagines the story of Europe, from Imperial Rome to Saint Jehanne d’Arc, the madness of Gilles de Rais and the first flickers of the French Revolution.

“A delightful celebration of rom-coms, slasher flicks, and the women who love them.” —Kirkus Reviews (starred review)

A humorous, swoony, and downright terrifying slasher rom-com in which a cinephile gets caught in the middle of a murder spree at a speed-dating event and must use her encyclopedic knowledge of the romance and horror genres to make it as a real-life Final Girl.

When Jamie Prescott and her best friend Laurie attend a speed-dating event, Jamie expects to meet a roster of mediocre men and indulge in some street food afterwards. She doesn’t expect one of her dates to have his throat slit at their table during a blackout. After the lights come back on and there are more bodies on the floor, it becomes clear that dating can be a very dangerous pastime.

Armed with makeshift weapons and Jamie’s extensive knowledge of what NOT to do in a slasher, the remaining speed daters try to find an exit while the killer adds to their body count. As the night progresses and Jamie comes face-to-mask with the murderer, she begins to suspect they are committing the slayings to woo one of the daters and turn them into a real-life Final Girl. But Jamie has other plans, and as she fights for her life, she can’t help but find herself ensconced in a love triangle with two of the other survivors. Will she make it through the bloodshed to find her Happily Ever After? Or does this machete-wielding psychopath have another ending in mind?

For fans of Love in the Time of Serial Killers and Butcher & Blackbird, How to Kill a Guy in Ten Dates is one killer love story.

"If you picked up this book because you truly want to get away with murder, you will not be disappointed. Simply turn the page and we'll get started." 

This fresh debut thriller finds a Scotland Yard detective trying to find the author of a self-help book that promises quite literally to teach readers how to get away with murder, which seems to have inspired London's newest murderer.

Detective Inspector Samantha Hansen has been on leave for six months, recovering from a breakdown she suffered at work, but when a fourteen-year-old girl is murdered in a local park, Sam jumps at the chance to return to the job and prove that she's still got what it takes to be the Yard's most successful homicide detective. One of the case's only leads is a copy of a self-help book found in the victim's backpack called How To Get Away With Murder by a man named Denver Brady.

Brady claims to be the most successful serial killer of our time, which is why no one's ever heard of him. Chapter by chapter, he details his methodology and his past victims, and as Sam's investigation progresses and the details of the book go viral, Sam begins to suspect that there’s more to the author than what he’s revealed. But in order to find a killer and get justice for young Charlotte, Sam must learn to trust her instincts once again, before Denver Brady--or someone else--really does get away with murder.

A search & rescue expert. A kidnapped woman. The lost girls who haunt them both. 
“A superb mystery. . . Readers will be thinking about this long after they turn the last page.” —Publishers Weekly (starred review)

There is a girl in a basement.
The door has stopped opening.
The light is gone.

Stranger is trapped in the dark, with only her imagination and the scribbles on the wall left by long-dead girls to keep her company. Nearly out of food and water, she makes one last attempt to escape. But if the door opens at last, will it mean salvation, or only the beginning of her fight to survive? 

Audrey is a search and rescue expert who never stopped looking for her ex-best friend, Janie, who disappeared when they were teenagers. Janie used to love the local legend of a forest witch who saves girls from bad men, but Audrey knows now that for every one saved, there’s always another one lost. When she stumbles upon evidence in the forest that a teenage runaway might have actually been kidnapped from land belonging to the town’s most prominent family, she will have to dig through decades of secrets to reveal the biggest one of all: what happened to the girls before.

Kate Alice Marshall, bestselling author of What Lies in the Woods, No One Can Know, and A Killing Cold, is back with the thrilling new novel Ashley Winstead calls, "magnetic, shocking, heartbreaking, and unputdownable."

The multimillion-copy and New York Times bestseller B. A. Paris returns with a triumphant, unsettling next suspense novel, When I Kill You.

Who is watching Nell Masters?

Nell Masters is certain someone is following her. The hairs on the back of her neck rise when she travels to and from work, there are silent calls to her office, and a huge bouquet of flowers arrives without a card. And Nell has a reason to be looking over her shoulder, because she has a secret that she’s hiding from everyone in her life, including her new partner, Alex. But Alex also has secrets of his own.

Fourteen years earlier, when Nell went by the name Elle Nugent, she witnessed a student, Bryony Sanders, getting into a stranger’s car.

ONE OF PEOPLE'S MOST ANTICIPATED BOOKS OF 2026

A stunning, fierce collection from a master of the short story and one of the most important writers of our time

Read alone, each story in Lauren Groff’s electric collection is an individual triumph, bold, agile, and packed with power. Read together, they hum in exhilarating resonance. Ranging from the 1950s to the present day and moving across age, class, and region -- from New England to Florida to California -- these nine stories reflect and expand upon a shared theme: the ceaseless battle between humans’ dark and light angels.

“In every human there is both an animal and a god wrestling unto death,“ one character tells us. Among those we see caught in this match are a young woman suddenly responsible for her disabled sibling, a hot-tempered high school swimmer in need of an adult, a mother blinded by the loss of her family, and a banking scion endowed with a different kind of inheritance. Motivated by love, impeded by the double edges of other peoples’ good intentions, they try to do the right thing for as long as they can.

Precise, surprising, and provocative, anchored by profound insight into human nature, Brawler reveals the repeated, sometimes heartbreaking turning points between love and fear, compassion and violence, reason and instinct, altruism and what it takes to survive.

A woman who runs a cat rescue in 1920s Montréal turns to a grouchy but charming magician to help save her shelter in this heartwarming cozy fantasy from the New York Times bestselling author of the Emily Wilde series.

“Absolutely magnificent! Full of cats and magic, this is the kind of book you want to instantly reread. I loved every character, every cat, and every moment with all my heart!”—Sarah Beth Durst, New York Times bestselling author of The Spellshop

Agnes Aubert leads a meticulously organized life, and she likes it that way. As the proudly type-A manager of a cat rescue charity, she has devoted her life to finding forever homes for stray cats.

Now it’s the shelter that needs a new home. And the only landlord who will rent a space to a cat rescue is a mysterious man called Havelock—who also happens to be the world’s most infamous magician, running an illegal magic shop out of his basement. Havelock is cantankerous and eccentric, but not not handsome, and no, Agnes absolutely does not feel anything but disdain for him. After all, rumors swirl about his shadowy past—including whispers that his dark magic once almost brought about the apocalypse.

Then one day a glamorous magician comes looking for Havelock, putting the magic shop—and the cat shelter—in jeopardy. To save the shelter, Agnes will have to team up with the magician who nearly ended the world . . . and may now be trying to steal her heart.

Havelock is everything Agnes thinks she doesn’t need in her life: chaos, mischief, and a little too much adventure. But as she gets to know him, she discovers that he’s more than the dark magician of legend, and that she may be ready for a little intrigue—and romance—in her life. After all, second chances aren’t just for rescue cats. . . .

“Promises plenty of Borison’s signature banter, emotional nuance, and snowed-in charm.”—New York Times

Two competing meteorologists are forced to find common ground in this opposites attract, When Harry Met Sally inspired romance, from #1 New York Times bestselling author B.K. Borison.

Jackson Clark and Delilah Stewart have had their fair share of run-ins over the years, often ending in disaster. While Jackson thrives on routine and organization from the comfort of his radio booth, Delilah loves the spontaneity and adventure out in the field. When they’re partnered against their will to cover a historic snowstorm, they find themselves scrambling to figure out how to work together.

Eager to be taken seriously as a journalist, Delilah offers Jackson a deal: If he can help her ace this assignment, she’ll help him rediscover his long-lost fun side. With unexplored chemistry burning beneath their clashes, the unlikely partnership quickly tumbles into an easy and surprising friendship.

But when other feelings start to enter the equation, can Jackson and Delilah withstand the storm? Or does what happens in the mountains stay in the mountains?

From USA Today bestselling author Alexandra Vasti comes The Halifax Hellions: a pair of sexy, hilarious romps in which the most scandalous ladies in London finally meet their match. 

From the day of their debut, when Matilda smoked a cheroot and Margo tied a cherry stem in a knot with her tongue, the Halifax twins have flouted convention at every turn. But when Matilda runs off with the dangerous Marquess of Ashford—who has every reason to hate her—she may have gone a bit too far.

Determined to stop Matilda’s inexplicable elopement, her sister Margo turns to her oldest friend for help: because if anyone can get her to Scotland in time, it’s starchy solicitor Henry Mortimer.

“A lovely, affecting paean to the power of books and enduring love.”—People

A woman receives an unexpected gift from the man she loved and lost—a year of books, one for every month—launching a reading-inspired journey to live, dream, and love again in this glimmering and heart-stopping novel.

Twelve books. Twelve months. One chance to heal her heart…

When Tilly Nightingale receives a call telling her there’s a birthday gift from her husband waiting for her at her local bookshop, it couldn’t come as more of a shock. Partly because she can’t remember the last time she read a book for pleasure. But mainly because Joe died five months ago....

When she goes to pick up the present, Alfie, the bookshop owner with kind eyes, explains the gift—twelve carefully chosen books with handwritten letters from Joe, one for each month, to help her turn the page on her first year without him.

At first Tilly can’t imagine sinking into a fictional world, but Joe’s tender words convince her to try, and something remarkable happens—Tilly becomes immersed in the pages, and a new chapter begins to unfold in her own life. Monthly trips to the bookstore—and heartfelt conversations with Alfie—give Tilly the comfort she craves and the courage to set out on a series of reading-inspired adventures that take her around the world. But as she begins to share her journey with others, her story—like a book—becomes more than her own.

From the critically acclaimed author of No Exit and The Last Word comes a story of two friends who embark on an ill-fated caving expedition--and the dark truth of what happens deep underground.

After years of excuses, Tess has finally agreed to go caving with her best friend Allie. Their lives have diverged sharply since high school--Allie is a self-made travel influencer, while Tess is a shy (and claustrophobic) legal assistant struggling to pay for law school. Maybe she's a little jealous of Allie's globe-trotting life. Who wouldn't be?

As Tess and Allie descend into the depths, they realize they're not alone. A stranger who claims to be a fellow caver harasses them. Confident, take-no-shit Allie insults the guy--and he retaliates. Soon, Tess is trapped inside a narrow crawl space hundreds of feet underground, fighting to stay alive.

Twenty-four hours later, as a hospitalized Tess recounts her harrowing story of survival, the detective interviewing her shares new and shocking secrets about Allie's true past. Together, they begin to suspect the brutal attack wasn't so random after all.

Who was Allie, really? Why did this man target them? And did Tess really leave the danger behind when she escaped the cave?

But there’s a complication.

Even though the settlers were promised they’d be left in peace, Earth’s government now has other plans. The colossal Apex Industries is hired to commence an “eviction action.” But maximizing profits will always be Apex’s number one priority. Why spend money printing and deploying AI soldiers when they can turn it into a game? Why not charge bored Earthers for the opportunity to design their own war machines and remotely pilot them from the comfort of their homes?

The game is called Operation Bounce House.

Oliver and his friends soon find themselves fighting for their lives against machines piloted by gamers who’ve paid a premium for the privilege. With the help of an old book from his grandfather and a bucket of rusty parts, Oliver is determined to defend the only home he’s ever known.

Beth March’s sisters will stop at nothing to track down her killer—until they begin to suspect each other—in this “brilliantly snappy…electrifying” (Publishers Weekly, starred review) debut thriller that’s also a bold, contemporary reimagining of the beloved classic Little Women.

When Beth March is found dead in the woods on New Year’s Day, her sisters vow to uncover her murderer.

Suspects abound. There’s the neighbor who has feelings for not one but two of the girls. Meg’s manipulative best friend. Amy’s flirtatious mentor. And Beth’s lionhearted first love. But it doesn’t take the surviving sisters much digging to uncover motives each one of the March girls had for doing the unthinkable.

Jo, an aspiring author with a huge following on social media, would do anything to hook readers. Would she kill her sister for the story? Amy dreams of studying art in Europe, but she’ll need money from her aunt—money that’s always been earmarked for Beth. And Meg wouldn’t dream of hurting her sister…but her boyfriend might have, and she’ll protect him at all costs.

Despite the growing suspicion within the family, it’s hard to know for sure if the crime was committed by someone close to home. After all, the March sisters were dragged into the spotlight months ago when their father published a controversial bestseller about his own daughters. Beth could have been killed by anyone.

Beth’s perspective told in flashback unfolds next to Meg, Jo, and Amy’s increasingly fraught investigation as the tragedy threatens to rip the Marches apart.

She has a secret: she has the same genetic eye disease as her father and is slowly going blind, just like he did. Nobody knows. Not her friends. Not her family. As if that weren't hard enough, Hattie's good friend Mason drowns unexpectedly, leaving their friend group shattered.

After Mason's death, Hattie isn't ready to let go. There are too many things left unsaid between them. But while it's hard for her to find her seat in the dim light of the church at Mason's funeral, Hattie finds that she can see something no one else can: Mason's ghost. And when he speaks, teasing her the way he always did, it's clear their chemistry hasn't changed. Sometimes, when Mason visits her, Hattie can pretend that everything is how it used to be.

But the longer Hattie keeps her secrets, the harder it is to deny the truth. Her eyesight is getting worse, and she's mourning not just Mason, but the life she thought she'd have. Hattie's sick of being told that the only way to heal is to move on . . . because how can she move on if it means losing Mason forever?

The Hazel Wood meets Laini Taylor in this gorgeous urban fantasy of sisterhood, ghosts, and old family curses.

Are the four Farthing sisters really descended from Persephone? This is what their aunt has always told them: that the women in their family can trace their lineage right back to the Goddess of the Dead. And maybe she's right, because the Farthing girls do have a ghost in the attic of their New York City brownstone —a kind and gentle ghost named Henry, who only they can see.

When one of the sisters falls in love with the ghost, and another banishes him to the Underworld, the sisters are faced with even bigger questions about who they are. If they really are related to Persephone, and they really are a bit magic, then perhaps it’s up to them to save Henry, to save the world, and to save each other.

But secrets pile up as each sister lives a double life, and their worlds come crashing together when a scandal from the halls of Hardwicke reaches Capitol Hill. As the stakes turn deadly, Tess must uncover who's behind the power play before she becomes a target herself.

From the author of The Assassin Game and Have You Seen My Sister? comes another gripping thriller that follows seven teens stranded together on a trip in the mountains, cut off from civilization, and hunted by an unknown killer who wants them dead.

Maggie Atkins will never forget what happened in that cave ten years ago when she and six other elementary school kids were kidnapped by their bus driver and kept captive. She will never forget that her friends left her alone to escape, or the image of her kidnapper falling to his death, but she has done her best to put the ordeal behind her and move on.

Her past catches up with her when she's forced to go on a school trip to the mountains with the very same people who abandoned her, and only a stone's throw away from the scene of her kidnapping. She's determined to suck it up and get through it though since it's only one night of her life. But then a brutal storm changes everything and separates her group from their chaperone. With no phones and a limited food supply, the group strategizes how they can survive the elements and make it back to safety.

Then they realize there is someone else on the mountain. Someone who knows what really happened all those years ago. Someone who wants them dead and is willing to take them out one by one. Maggie thought she'd already survived the worst thing she would ever go through-she was wrong.

Seventeen-year-old Katah Fustukian has always felt like the odd one out in his family of chefs. Unlike his older siblings, he is useless in the kitchen, and too young to have known their late father—a legendary Hye chef who’d made a name for himself in the Pars Empire.

But with his mom’s illness worsening, Katah hopes that his vision-like dreams are a sign of magic stirring within him—especially after they lead him to Az, a powerful div with some mysterious connection to his family. In an attempt to save their mom’s life, he and his siblings strike a deal: Az’s help in exchange for a dish that rivals their father’s.

But after the siblings clash over what to cook, Katah will have to make sense of his magic and family history—and wager far more than a single meal to meet Az’s demands...

But then she meets her childhood imaginary friend, Barnaby, in the alley behind the coffee shop one night. Autumn’s entire world is turned upside down.

Drawn into the strange and mysterious world of the Night Folk, fantastic creatures that inspired all of humanity’s myths about gods and monsters, Autumn is about to discover that there is more to her world than she ever dreamed of as a little girl, and that world is far more dangerous than she could ever have imagined. With the help of Barnaby and Evan Fade, the tragic young boy who inherited the local bookstore, Autumn has to protect herself from the coldly terrifying Mr. Balloon long enough to discover the truth about the Night Folk and her own past.

Growing up is always just a little too much for a kid to handle, but taking your time is all it takes

Tweeny-bopper Elise knows she’s different, but kind of just chalks it up to being a weirdo. And in the 90s, who isn’t? Other girls might be shifting their attention to boys, but Elise is putting the freeze on all that adult stuff to get lost in play with her besties and pour her energy into making her art. Besides, what’s the point in rushing when being a kid is such a blast?

In True Colors: Growing Up Weird in the 90s, Elise invites readers into the pages of her diary and takes them back to a radically different time before smartphones and home computers. It’s a world where fun means going to the mall and making mix tapes on cassette, and where imagination reigns supreme! It’s also a world where making new friends can be confusing, nerve-wracking, and utterly mind-boggling.

Creative and curious kids, anybody dealing with anything from not fitting in, to anxiety—or even an ADHD diagnosis—will see themselves in the pages. And through it all, Gravel shows the power of art and creativity to transform, as we see Elise turning her differences into her superpower in this funny and encouraging artistic origin story.

In the small town of Great Mountain, Mississippi, all eyes are on Henson Blayze, a thirteen-year-old football phenom whose talents seem almost superhuman. The predominately white townsfolk have been waiting for Henson to play high school ball, and now they’re overjoyed to finally possess an elite Black athlete of their own.

Until a horrifying incident forces Henson to speak out about injustice.
Until he says that he might not play football anymore.
Until he quickly learns he isn’t as loved by the people as he thought.

Overnight, Henson’s town is divided into two chaotic sides—those that support his decisions, and those that don’t—when all he wants is justice. Even his best friends and his father can’t see eye to eye. When he is told to play ball again or else, Henson must decide whether he was born to entertain those who may not even see him as human, or if he’s destined for a different kind of greatness.

Written for children ages 10 and up, Derrick Barnes’s groundbreaking novel masterfully combines a modern-day allegory with classic-style tall tales to weave a compelling story of America’s obsession with relegating Black people to labor or entertainment. Spanning the 1800s to today, this exceptional novel shows how much has changed over centuries . . . and, at the same time, how little.

“An unforgettable story about change with a loving father-daughter bond at its heart.”—Matt de la Peña, Newbery Medal–winning author of Last Stop on Market Street

Newbery Medalist Rebecca Stead’s first picture book is a transporting tale about the power of an honest wish, the courage to speak it out loud, and the imagination to bring it to life.

What’s more powerful than a secret wish? A wish you say out loud.

Anything paints a tender picture of a father and daughter moving into a new home. Dad brings a birthday cake for the new apartment to celebrate their new beginning and tells his daughter she can wish for anything (or, more precisely, “three Anythings”). Over the course of the day, she wishes for some of her favorite things, including a rainbow and “the biggest slice of pizza in the whole world."

But she keeps some of her wishes inside. Because what she really wants is to go back home to their old apartment, with its big blue bathtub and space in the closet for hide-and-seek. When she finally admits this last wish, her dad takes her on a journey, and by the book’s final pages, she is home . . . in every way that matters.

Pairing an enchanting story from Rebecca Stead (author of the Newbery Medal-winning When You Reach Me) with delightful artwork from Gracey Zhang (illustrator of the Caldecott Honor-winning Noodles on a Bicycle), Anything is pure magic. A story that will resonate with every young reader, it is a powerful reminder that sometimes making a wish is a way of telling ourselves we're ready for something new.

BIG FEELINGS: Change can feel hard or even scary. This book about moving is for anyone facing new beginnings or uncertainty and the emotions that come with navigating the unknown, from fear and anxiety to excitement and hope. It’s a reassuring and uplifting read that shows a child—and her dad—using their imaginations and emotional connection to make room for something new.

FATHER-DAUGHTER LOVE: This is a heartwarming portrait of a beautiful father-daughter relationship built on love and trust. By the end of the story, she follows his example of generosity and is able to grant his wish, however small. This pitch-perfect ending will stay with readers long after the last page turns.

“Riveting, heart-wrenching, and full of Old Hollywood glamour.” —BuzzFeed

“This wildly addictive journey of a reclusive Hollywood starlet and her tumultuous Tinseltown journey comes with unexpected twists and the most satisfying of drama.” —PopSugar

In this entrancing novel, a legendary film actress reflects on her relentless rise to the top and the risks she took, the loves she lost, and the long-held secrets the public could never imagine.

Aging and reclusive Hollywood movie icon Evelyn Hugo is finally ready to tell the truth about her glamorous and scandalous life. But when she chooses unknown magazine reporter Monique Grant for the job, no one is more astounded than Monique herself. Why her? Why now?

Monique is not exactly on top of the world. Her husband has left her, and her professional life is going nowhere. Regardless of why Evelyn has selected her to write her biography, Monique is determined to use this opportunity to jumpstart her career.

Summoned to Evelyn’s luxurious apartment, Monique listens in fascination as the actress tells her story. From making her way to Los Angeles in the 1950s to her decision to leave show business in the ‘80s, and, of course, the seven husbands along the way, Evelyn unspools a tale of ruthless ambition, unexpected friendship, and a great forbidden love. Monique begins to feel a very real connection to the legendary star, but as Evelyn’s story near its conclusion, it becomes clear that her life intersects with Monique’s own in tragic and irreversible ways.

“Heartbreaking, yet beautiful” (Jamie Blynn, Us Weekly), The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo is “Tinseltown drama at its finest” (Redbook): a mesmerizing journey through the splendor of old Hollywood into the harsh realities of the present day as two women struggle with what it means—and what it costs—to face the truth.

Sometimes all you need is one person to really see you. 

Piper Parrish's life on Frick Island—a tiny, remote town smack in the middle of the Chesapeake Bay—is nearly perfect. Well, aside from one pesky detail: Her darling husband, Tom, is dead. When Tom's crab boat capsized and his body wasn't recovered, Piper, rocked to the core, did a most peculiar thing: carried on as if her husband was not only still alive, but right there beside her, cooking him breakfast, walking him to the docks each morning, meeting him for their standard Friday night dinner date at the One-Eyed Crab. And what were the townspeople to do but go along with their beloved widowed Piper? 
 
Anders Caldwell’s career is not going well. A young ambitious journalist, he’d rather hoped he’d be a national award-winning podcaster by now, rather than writing fluff pieces for a small town newspaper. But when he gets an assignment to travel to the remote Frick Island and cover their boring annual Cake Walk fundraiser, he stumbles upon a much more fascinating tale: an entire town pretending to see and interact with a man who does not actually exist. Determined it’s the career-making story he’s been needing for his podcast, Anders returns to the island to begin covert research and spend more time with the enigmatic Piper—but he has no idea out of all the lives he’s about to upend, it’s his that will change the most.

Elmore Leonard, a literary icon praised by The New York Times Book Review as "the greatest crime writer of our time, perhaps ever," has captured the imagination of millions of readers with his more than three dozen books.

In this short fiction collection, Leonard demonstrates the superb characterizations, dead-on dialogue, vivid atmosphere, and driving plots that have made him a household name -- and once again illustrates that the line between the law and the lawbreakers is not as firm as we might think.

Federal marshal Karen Sisco, from the bestselling novel Out of Sight, returns in "Karen Makes Out," once again inadvertently mixing pleasure with business. In "Fire in the Hole," Raylan Givens, last seen in Riding the Rap and Pronto, meets up with an old friend, but they're now on different sides of the law. In the title story, "When the Women Come Out to Dance," Mrs. Mahmood gets more than she bargains for when she conspires with her maid to end her unhappy marriage.

All nine stories are Elmore Leonard at his vivid, hilarious, and unfailingly human best.

A new hardcover edition of the book Graham Greene called "the best spy story I have ever read."

On its publication in 1964, John le Carr�'s The Spy Who Came in From the Cold forever changed the landscape of spy fiction. Le Carr� combined the inside knowledge of his years in British intelligence with the skills of the best novelists to produce a story as taut as it is twisting, unlike any previously experienced, which transports anyone who reads it back to the shadowy years in the early 1960s, when the Berlin Wall went up and the Cold War came to life.

The Spy Who Came in From the Cold was hailed as a classic as soon as it was published, and it remains one today.

#1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • NOW A NETFLIX FILM • A remarkable tale of the island of Guernsey during the German Occupation, and of a society as extraordinary as its name.

“Treat yourself to this book, please—I can’t recommend it highly enough.”—Elizabeth Gilbert, author of Eat, Pray, Love

“I wonder how the book got to Guernsey? Perhaps there is some sort of secret homing instinct in books that brings them to their perfect readers.” January 1946: London is emerging from the shadow of the Second World War, and writer Juliet Ashton is looking for her next book subject. Who could imagine that she would find it in a letter from a man she’s never met, a native of the island of Guernsey, who has come across her name written inside a book by Charles Lamb. . . .

As Juliet and her new correspondent exchange letters, Juliet is drawn into the world of this man and his friends—and what a wonderfully eccentric world it is. The Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society—born as a spur-of-the-moment alibi when its members were discovered breaking curfew by the Germans occupying their island—boasts a charming, funny, deeply human cast of characters, from pig farmers to phrenologists, literature lovers all.

Juliet begins a remarkable correspondence with the society’s members, learning about their island, their taste in books, and the impact the recent German occupation has had on their lives. Captivated by their stories, she sets sail for Guernsey, and what she finds will change her forever.

Written with warmth and humor as a series of letters, this novel is a celebration of the written word in all its guises and of finding connection in the most surprising ways.
