Corre corre, calabaza

Eva Mejuto

No he visto vieja ni viejo, ni viejita ni viejota. Corre corre, calabaza. ¡Corre más calabazota!, respondía a la calabaza que iba rodando por el camino, ante la mirada estupefacta del lobo, el oso y el león. Quién irá dentro de ella, haciendo burla de las tres fieras? Corre corre, calabaza es un cuento popular portugués, de gran tradición en el país vecino, y que, sin embargo, nunca había sido editado en castellano. Cuenta la historia de una viejecita que, de camino a la boda de su nieta, encuentra a un lobo, un oso y a un león que quieren comérsela. Ella convence a los animales para que la esperen a su regreso del convite y, después de la celebración, la nieta y la viejecita traman un plan muy original para burlar a las tres fieras. Escritores de la talla de Alice Vieira y compiladores de cuentos tradicionales lusos como Adolfo Coelho, S. Romero, A. Oliveira o L. Vasconcellos, han recogido variantes de esta historia en todo Portugal e incluso Brasil, con historias que han dado en llamar A vella e os lobos, O macaco e a cabaça (en la variante brasileira), A cabacinha o A vella que ia na calabaça e encontrou um lobo. En alguna de estas versiones los animales se comen a la abuela, pero en esta versión se optó por un final en el que la vieja y la nieta, reuniendo ingenio, humor e imaginación, consiguen superar los conflictos y darle a las tres fieras su merecido. Con un ritmo ágil y usando "lenga lenga"--Casi un trabalenguas-, presente en las versiones portuguesas que aún hoy circulan, este cuento ofrece muchas posibilidades expresivas de narración y representación teatral. André Letria, ilustrador de gran prestigio en Portugal y ganador en varias ocasiones del Premio Nacional de Ilustración del país vecino, crea personajes con mucha fuerza y personalidad, acentuando su expresividad y enriqueciendo las imágenes con un imaginario humorístico muy definido.

Comejuguetes

Julien Béziat

"A la habitación de un niño llegó una cosa horrible; es grande como un elefante, voraz como un tiburón y hambriente como un león. Ha devorado conejos, gallinas, pingüinos y todo lo que encuentra a su paso. El pánico impera en los juguetes que están escondidos en el librero y que, parece, tienen un plan para derrotar a la bestia."--Page 4 of cover.

Tu Peso No Es El Problema / The Body I Love

Raquel Lobatón

«Aceptarnos es un acto de rebeldía ante un sistema que ha lucrado con la misma insatisfacción que nos creó.»

¿Te han dicho alguna vez «no es hambre, es sed»? ¿Has oído la frase «no es una dieta, es un estilo de vida»? ¿O quizá te han hecho sentir culpable con un «si no pierdes peso es porque algo estás haciendo mal»?... Raquel Lobatón --antes nutrióloga enfocada en dietas para la pérdida de peso y ahora activista por la diversidad corporal-- cuestiona en este libro los mandatos que la sociedad ha impuesto sobre nuestros cuerpos, a la vez que nos invita a considerar una nueva perspectiva sobre nuestra salud y alimentación.

Tu peso no es el problema es un libro disruptivo que no solo nos muestra que liberarnos de la obsesión por la delgadez y la comida es posible, sino que nos da herramientas para renunciar a los listados de «alimentos permitidos y prohibidos», lidiar con el autorrechazo y vergüenzas corporales, emanciparnos personal y colectivamente para cruzar el puente hacia una alimentación libre de reglas.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

"Accepting ourselves is an act of rebellion against a system that has profited from the same discontent it brewed in us."

Has someone ever told you "You're not hungry, you're thirsty"? Have you ever heard the phrase "it is not a diet; it is a life style"? O perhaps someone has made you feel guilty by saying "if you can't lose weight, you're doing something wrong"?... Raquel Lobatón--former nutritionist focused on dieting to lose weight and now an activist and supporter of body diversity--questions the mandates that society has imposed over our bodies, while urging us to consider a new outlook on health and food.

The Body I Love is a disruptive book that not only shows us it is possible to be free of the obsession of thinness and food, but gives us tools to get rid of those "permitted and forbidden foods" lists, deal with self-rejection and body shame, and liberate ourselves both personally and collectively to cross over towards a diet devoid of rules.

Mi Nombre Es Emilia Del Valle

Isabel Allende

Una inolvidable historia de amor y de guerra protagonizada por una mujer que, enfrentada a los mayores desafíos, sobrevive y se reinventa.

San Francisco, 1866: una monja irlandesa, embarazada y abandonada por un aristócrata chileno tras una apasionada relación, da a luz a una niña a la que llama Emilia del Valle. Criada por su cariñoso padrastro, Emilia se convertirá en una joven brillante de gran personalidad, autónoma e independiente, que desafiará las normas sociales de su tiempo para profesar su verdadera pasión y vocación: la escritura.

Con tan solo diecisiete años, publicará novelas de aventuras bajo un pseudónimo masculino. Pero, enseguida, su mundo ficticio se le quedará pequeño y decidirá optar al puesto de periodista que se le ofrece en el periódico local para vivir de cerca la realidad.

Tiempo después, se le presentará la oportunidad de viajar como corresponsal a la ferviente guerra civil en Chile y no dudará en tomarla. Junto al avezado periodista Eric Whelan, Emilia se encontrará una nación en quiebra, al borde del abismo. Mientras cubre el conflicto bélico entre el presidente Balmaceda y el congreso rebelde, aprovechará la estancia en el país para explorar sus vínculos con la familia Del Valle y poder, al fin, conocer a su padre.

Sus reportajes la situarán en el centro de la guerra, soportando situaciones de terrible violencia en el campo de batalla, en el hospital de sangre y en la cárcel, donde varias veces se debatirá entre la vida y la muerte. Al tiempo, vivirá -y sufrirá- el amor y conocerá también, entre bosques, lagos y volcanes, una tierra donde no llega el horror de la guerra y donde, tal vez, acabe descubriendo no solo su destino sino su propia identidad.

Una cautivadora e inolvidable historia de amor y de guerra, de descubrimiento y redención, protagonizada por una mujer que, enfrentada a los mayores desafíos, sobrevive y se reinventa. Emilia del Valle es desde ya un personaje inolvidable del universo más fértil de Isabel Allende, la saga Del Valle, que empezó con su obra maestra La casa de los espíritus y continuó con Hija de la fortuna y Retrato en sepia.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

In this spellbinding historical novel from the New York Times bestselling author of A Long Petal of the Sea and The Wind Knows My Name, a young writer journeys to South America to uncover the truth about her father--and herself.

In San Francisco in 1866, an Irish nun, abandoned following a torrid relationship with a Chilean aristocrat, gives birth to a daughter named Emilia del Valle. Raised by a loving stepfather, Emilia grows into an independent thinker and a self-sufficient young woman.

To pursue her passion for writing, she is willing to defy societal norms. At the age of seventeen, she begins to publish pulp fiction using a man's pen name. When these fictional worlds can no longer satisfy her sense of adventure, she turns to journalism, convincing an editor at The Daily Examiner to hire her. There she is paired with another talented reporter, Eric Whelan.

As she proves herself, her restlessness returns, until an opportunity arises to cover a brewing civil war in Chile. She seizes it, as does Eric, and while there, she meets her estranged father and delves into the violent confrontation in the country where her roots lie. As she and Eric discover love, the war escalates and Emilia finds herself in extreme danger, fearing for her life and questioning her identity and her destiny.

A riveting tale of self-discovery and love from one of the most masterful storytellers of our time, My Name Is Emilia del Valle introduces a character who will never let hold of your heart.

Los Dos Hemisferios de Lucca / Lucca's World

Bárbara Anderson

El libro que inspiró la exitosa película de Netflix Lucca's World.

El viaje a India de un niño mexicano para reparar su cerebro con un tratamiento futurista.

Bárbara Anderson narra con brutal franqueza el día a día de tener un hijo con discapacidad: los retos dentro y fuera de casa, las complicaciones de salud y de vida; los cambios de prioridades; el Everest de cada día al tener un hijo con -hasta ahora- un diagnóstico irreversible como es la parálisis cerebral infantil.

La autora detalla cómo emprende un viaje a India con toda su familia para que Lucca sea uno de los primeros niños en someterse a un tratamiento de 28 días, dos ocasiones durante 2017 y otra en 2019, y los asombrosos resultados que vieron en él: una neurogénesis que arranca con el Cytotron, aparato creado por el científico indio Rajah Kumar. Como buen viaje de todo héroe, la historia no termina ahí: Bárbara, a quien no le gusta aceptar un no por respuesta, se embarca en una lucha para lograr impulsar el uso del Cytotron en México. Un vistazo a las posibilidades que se abren desde ahora para pacientes con parálisis cerebral y otras condiciones neurológicas además de otro tipo de enfermedades como el cáncer desde México, el punto más lejano en el mundo a Bangalore.

"Un libro estremecedor, hermoso, y últimamente esperanzador. Los dos hemisferios de Lucca es la prueba de que la perseverancia y el empeño siempre tienen su recompensa, y de que el Cytotron marcará un cambio de paradigma para millones de personas a nivel mundial que sufren problemas de salud hasta ahora intratables. Una joya de historia." -Michael Rowe, director de cine.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

The book that inspired the hit Netflix movie Lucca's World.

With brutal frankness, Barbara Anderson narrates the day to day of having a disabled child: the challenges in and out of the home, the health and life complications, the change in priorities, the massive daily struggles of having a child with an irreversible--so far--diagnostic, such as infantile cerebral palsy.

The author details how she embarked on a trip to India with her whole family so that Lucca could become one of the first children to undergo two 28-day treatments in 2017 and 2019, and the amazing results they saw in him: a neurogenesis that jump starts with Cytotron, a machine created by Indian scientist Rajah Kumar. As is the journey of every hero, this story doesn't end there: Barbara, unable to take no for an answer, begins her fight to promote the use of Cytotron in Mexico. This is a glimpse of the possibilities now open for patients with cerebral palsy and other neurological conditions, as well as other types of diseases, such as cancer, from Mexico, the farthest place in the world from Bangalore.

"A chilling, beautiful, and ultimately heartening book. The Two Hemispheres of Lucca is proof that perseverance and effort are always rewarded, and that Cytotron will be a paradigm change for millions of people from all over the world who suffer health problems so far untreatable. A gem of a story." --Michael Rowe, film director

Eran la pareja perfecta... Hasta que ella desapareció

Casey Fletcher, una célebre actriz que acaba de perder a su esposo en un trágico accidente, intenta escapar de su dolor y una racha de malas críticas cuando decide refugiarse en la casa de su familia junto a un lago en Vermont. Equipada con un par de binoculares y varias botellas de licor, dedica su tiempo a observar a Tom y Katherine Royce, la atractiva pareja que vive en la casa al otro lado del lago. Parecen ser el matrimonio ideal: Tom, un rico empresario de tecnología, y Katherine, una hermosa ex modelo.

Un día en el lago, Casey salva milagrosamente a Katherine de ahogarse, y las dos comienzan a entablar una amistad. Pero cuanto más se conocen y más tiempo pasa Casey observándolos, queda claro que el matrimonio no es tan armonioso y perfecto como parece. Cuando repentinamente Katherine desaparece, Casey no cree que haya regresado a Manhattan como sugieren sus publicaciones en redes sociales, presiente que algo turbio ha ocurrido y se obsesiona con tratar de descubrirlo. Además, una serie de nuevas desapariciones la hacen sospechar que algo mucho más oscuro existe detrás.

Descubrir la verdad será solo la antesala de un misterio mucho más espeluznante de lo que pudo haber imaginado.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

They were the perfect couple... Until she disappeared

Casey Fletcher, a celebrated actress who just lost her husband in a tragic accident, tries to escape her grief and a streak of bad reviews when she decides to take refuge in her family's lakeside home in Vermont. Equipped with a pair of binoculars and several bottles of liquor, she spends her time observing Tom and Katherine Royce, the attractive couple who live in the house across the lake. They seem to be the ideal marriage: Tom, a wealthy tech entrepreneur, and Katherine, a beautiful former model.

One day at the lake, Casey miraculously saves Katherine from drowning, and the two begin to strike up a friendship. But the more they get to know each other and the more time Casey spends observing them, it becomes clear that the marriage is not as harmonious and perfect as it seems. When Katherine suddenly disappears, Casey doesn't believe she's returned to Manhattan as her social media posts suggest, senses that something shady has happened, and becomes obsessed with trying to figure it out. In addition, a series of new disappearances make her suspect that something much darker exists behind it.

Uncovering the truth will be just the prelude to a mystery far more horrifying than he could have imagined.

El Síndrome de la Impostora

Elisabeth Cadoche

¿Por qué en el colegio las chicas creen que no han estudiado lo suficiente y en cambio los chicos piensan que «el examen era muy difícil»? ¿Por qué en la actualidad, aunque las estadísticas continúen mostrando que ellas sacan mejores notas, sigue faltándoles confianza (cosa que además influirá profundamente en su desarrollo profesional)? ¿Por qué la mayoría de mujeres sienten que son un fraude en su trabajo y que sus éxitos son solo fruto de la buena suerte? Esto es lo que se conoce como el síndrome de la impostora: una falta de autoestima que te lleva a dudar constantemente de tu potencial.

Este libro ahonda en las causas psicológicas de este fenómeno, explica cómo incluso algunas grandes líderes y creadoras --Michelle Obama, Angela Merkel o Margaret Atwood-- lo han sufrido y da herramientas para aprender a creer en una misma y ganar la seguridad necesaria para tener una carrera profesional y personal exitosa.

Sin embargo, un mal día se verá obligado a hacer frente a un encargo más extraño de lo habitual y demasiado bien remunerado para ser legal. Su camino se cruzará con el de Ayla, una adolescente empeñada en averiguar la verdad tras la muerte de su hermano y en esclarecer los turbios asuntos en los que se vio envuelto antes de morir. La investigación los llevará a rondar algunos de los lugares menos recomendables de la ciudad y los colocará en el punto de mira del Gran Rojo, la organización que habita a la sombra de los rascacielos y que no tiene piedad con quien se inmiscuye en sus negocios." -- Amazon.

Desafiando la tierra salvaje / Braving the Wilderness

Brene Brown

Un libro oportuno y necesario que desafía todo lo que creemos saber sobre el cultivo de la verdadera pertenencia en nuestras comunidades, organizaciones y cultura.

De la autora de The Call to Courage!, el documental de Netflix. 
Selección del Club de Lectura Hello Sunshine de Reese Whiterspoon. 

Brené Brown argumenta que estamos experimentando una crisis espiritual de desconexión e introduce cuatro prácticas de pertenencia verdadera que desafían todo lo que creemos sobre nosotros mismos y entre nosotros. 

Ella escribe: “La verdadera pertenencia requiere que creamos y pertenezcamos a nosotros mismos tan completamente que podamos encontrar la santidad tanto en ser parte de algo como en estar solos cuando sea necesario. Pero en una cultura que está plagada de perfeccionismo y placer, y con la erosión de la civilidad, es fácil permanecer en silencio, esconderse en nuestros búnkeres ideológicos o encajar en lugar de mostrarse como nuestro verdadero yo y enfrentar el desierto de la incertidumbre y la crítica. Pero la verdadera pertenencia no es algo que negociamos o logramos con otros; Es una práctica diaria que exige integridad y autenticidad. Es un compromiso personal que llevamos en nuestros corazones ". 

Brown nos ofrece la claridad y el coraje que necesitamos para encontrar nuestro camino de regreso a nosotros mismos y a los demás. Y ese camino atraviesa el desierto. Brown escribe: “El desierto es un lugar salvaje e impredecible de soledad y búsqueda. Es un lugar tan peligroso como impresionante, un lugar tan buscado como temido. Pero resulta ser el lugar de la verdadera pertenencia, y es el lugar más valiente y más sagrado en el que jamás se encontrará

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

A REESE WITHERSPOON x HELLO SUNSHINE BOOK CLUB PICK 

#1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • A timely and important book that challenges everything we think we know about cultivating true belonging in our communities, organizations, and culture, from the #1 bestselling author of Rising Strong, Daring Greatly, and The Gifts of Imperfection

Don’t miss the hourlong Netflix special Brené Brown: The Call to Courage!
 
“True belonging doesn’t require us to change who we are. It requires us to be who we are.” Social scientist Brené Brown, PhD, LMSW, has sparked a global conversation about the experiences that bring meaning to our lives—experiences of courage, vulnerability, love, belonging, shame, and empathy. In Braving the Wilderness, Brown redefines what it means to truly belong in an age of increased polarization. With her trademark mix of research, storytelling, and honesty, Brown will again change the cultural conversation while mapping a clear path to true belonging.

Brown argues that we’re experiencing a spiritual crisis of disconnection, and introduces four practices of true belonging that challenge everything we believe about ourselves and each other.

KINDergarten

Vera Ahiyya

Written by kindergarten teacher and Instagram influencer affectionately known as the Tutu Teacher, comes a picture book about a class that creates a kindness pledge to ensure that their class is the kindest it can possibly be.

It’s the first day of Kindergarten and Leo isn’t at all ready. Leo is a quiet kid and would prefer to stay home. Over the summer, his new teacher, Ms. Perry sent a letter asking her students to think about how to show kindness in school. She explained that they would be making a kindness pledge, and each student should bring one way to show kindness on the first day.
 
As it turns out, Leo’s classmates have lots of ideas about kindness: like raising your hand, never leaving anyone out, and apologizing if you hurt someone’s feelings. At the end of the first day, Ms. Perry asks if anyone witnessed something they’d like her to add to the kindness pledge? Lots of hands shoot up in the air. Several classmates say they noticed Leo returning crayons to the box, holding the door for everyone, and helping a friend who fell. Leo smiles as he realizes he really does know a lot about kindness after all. 
 
A story reassuringly told by Vera Ahiyya and brought to exuberant life by illustrator Joey Chou, this story about a classroom coming together to make a kindergarten into a KINDergarten is sure to calm the nerves—and offer inspiration—to new kindergartners and the adults in their lives.

Desde la Raíz

Elisa Sacal

Si este libro llegó a tus manos, aprovecha la oportunidad para prevenir enfermedades y mejorar tu calidad de vida

"Cuando queremos solucionar un problema de salud, si queremos hacerlo de raíz y duradero, no es suficiente atacar el problema específico; es necesario encontrar el origen y también todos los atenuantes, todo aquello que incide en agravar o mantener el problema. Por lo tanto, no se trata de un tratamiento único, hay que abrir el espectro, hay que tratar el problema de salud como su naturaleza lo indica, desde diferentes aristas. Es por eso que, desde hace varios años, comencé a trabajar en mi práctica médica desde un enfoque integral y holístico. Me apasioné por entender el efecto en la salud de los hábitos, lo que comemos, nuestros pensamientos y emociones o la manera en la que dormimos. En este libro ofrezco una guía práctica y accesible para que más personas puedan beneficiarse de los enfoques integrales y personalizados que promuevo en mi práctica diaria."

La doctora Elisa Sacal nos comparte su amplio conocimiento con un lenguaje sencillo y una visión profunda de todo lo que implica el estilo de vida saludable.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

If this book has found its way into your hands, take the opportunity to prevent diseases and improve your quality of life.

"When we want to solve a health problem, if we want to do it thoroughly and lastingly, it is not enough to tackle the specific issue; we need to find the root cause and also all the contributing factors, everything that exacerbates or maintains the problem. Therefore, it is not about a single treatment; we need to broaden the spectrum and address the health issue as its nature indicates, from different angles. That is why, several years ago, I began to work in my medical practice from an integral and holistic approach. I became passionate about understanding the impact of habits, what we eat, our thoughts and emotions, and the way we sleep on our health. In this book, I offer a practical and accessible guide so that more people can benefit from the integral and personalized approaches that I promote in my daily practice."

Dr. Elisa Sacal shares her extensive knowledge with us in simple language and a profound vision of everything that a healthy lifestyle entails.

A few things to know about the town of St. Muckle’s: It’s too out-of-the-way to interest greedy lords, and too damp and muddy for marauding dragons to burn. And anyone, from a humble serf to a runaway nun, may earn their freedom by living for a year and a day within the town walls. Seven years ago, Charl and his mother fled to St. Muckle’s and made it their safe-haven, building a new life in this so called Peasant’s Paradise. But when Charl sees something impossible—a ghost—soon the embers of his past are threatening to engulf his world in flame. A tragic accident is quickly followed by murder, a deadly plague, and a mercenary dragon. 

Charl manages to escape to an abandoned abbey outside of town, but finds no safety within those ruined walls. A treacherous nun, a chorus of murdered girls, and the fearsome Battle Bishop await, ready to ensnare him in a complex web of history, magic and fate. For some things should never be forgotten, however much they haunt us, and Charl will need all his wisdom and resiliency if he is to fight for the world he knows…and the people he calls home.

The Forgotten Summer of Seneca

Camryn Garrett

From acclaimed author Camryn Garrett comes a middle-grade mystery with a magical twist, about a girl who goes to live with her aunt in the summer after the loss of her father--and who finds a doorway in Central Park that leads to a magically preserved historical village

Everything is changing, and twelve-year-old Rowan Robinson hates it. She's dreading having to spend her summer in New York City with her Aunt Monica, even though she used to love it. But things are just different after her father passed away. Without him, nothing about her world feels the same.

Things start to get a little better when Rowan brings her dad's old camera to Central Park to take pictures. But as she's snapping photos, she notices a strange mirror-like shape floating in the air. When she gets closer to it, she trips and falls through the portal, and after she lands, she finds herself in a different world: Seneca Village, where Black people with magical abilities seem to live in the past, in a time without phones or electricity. At first, Rowan thinks it must be a dream, but the more time she spends in the village with her new friend Lily, the more she wants it to be real.

But outsiders aren't even supposed to be able to find Seneca. Rowan and Lily aren't sure how Rowan was able to see the portal, but they suspect it might have something to do with the girl who normally guards the portal having gone missing. As Rowan and Lily search for clues to help find the missing girl and uncover the truth of the portal's magic, Rowan begins to realize what secrets this village might be hiding, and how the events of the past still linger in the present day.

Filled with sparkling magic, honest explorations of grief, and moving depictions of a new friendship, The Forgotten Summer of Seneca asks us to remember a history that's often overlooked--and imagine a future where we're brave enough to embrace change.

Heiress Among Thieves

Emily Wibberley

Stealing from her rich family was supposed to be a fun winter getaway for teen mastermind Olivia Owens, but when a rival thief, a love triangle, and a murder suspect interfere, she'll have to decide how far she's willing to go for the vault full of gold-and for the boy she loves.

When teen heiress and heist leader Olivia Owens receives an invitation for her cold-hearted grandmother's seventieth birthday at the family's inherited Swiss castle, only one thing entices her to accept: the vault full of gold waiting in the castle's frigid dungeons. Assembling her old crew of high school criminals, now including her boyfriend Jackson, Olivia feels more prepared than ever for grand theft.

But not everything is what it seems when they arrive. For starters, the reunion turns out to be less of a party and more of a wake. Her grandmother announces that she's dying ... and plans to be buried with her fortune. Suddenly the entire greedy Owens clan turns their eyes toward Olivia's target. It's hard enough to steal something everyone's looking at, but an old backstabber, a new suitor, and an uninvited guest add fuel to the fire until Olivia is desperately trying to hold the pieces of her plan-and her crew-together.

As Olivia faces her family's dark legacy of deceit, grift, and maybe even murder, she's forced to weigh how deeply she loves Jackson with how her love might destroy him. She didn't choose her family, but now she has to choose-who she loves, who she trusts, and who she's willing to risk to get what she wants. In a family of thieves, this might cost her everything.

One summer.
46 mountain peaks.
A second chance to make things right.

Finn Connelly is nothing like his dad, a star athlete and firefighter hero who always ran toward danger until he died two years ago. Finn is about to fail seventh grade and has never made headlines . . . until now.

Caught on camera vandalizing a cemetery, he's in big trouble for knocking down some dead old lady's headstone.

All her life, her father, a vengeful sorcerer, has raised her for one singular task: infiltrate the royal palace and steal the king’s crown, an artefact with enough power to restore magic. But to enter the palace, she must assume the identity of a noblewoman. She chooses Marie d’Odette: famed for her beauty, a rumored candidate for future queen…and Odile’s childhood-friend-turned-sworn-enemy.

With her father’s help, Odile transforms Marie into a swan and takes her place at court. But when the king is brutally murdered and her own brother is accused, her plans are thrown into chaos. Desperate to free her brother, Odile is forced to team up with none other than elegant, infuriating Marie, the girl she has cursed…and the girl she can’t seem to stop thinking about despite her best efforts.

To make matters worse, there are whispers that the king’s murder was not at the hands of man, but beast. Torn between loyalty to her father and her growing feelings for Marie, Odile becomes tangled in a web of treachery and deceit. To save her kingdom, she must find the true path to magic…and find the real killer before they—or it—strikes again.

Beth Ferry

An unlikely team of talkative plants, a curious spider, and a grumpy goldfish use their newfound magical abilities to defend their family from a greedy human in this charming middle grade novel from New York Times bestselling author Beth Ferry, with illustrations from the award-winning Fan brothers.

Ivy is the beloved houseplant of young Jillian Tupper of Number 3 Ramshorn Drive, much to the constant dismay of Toasty the goldfish, who is technically the family pet—swimming in his special place of honor, the antique octagonal fish tank—and should be the most loved. It seems that’s how the cookie (or cheese puffs, in Toasty’s case) crumbles in the curious Tupper household, but soon a sequence of thrilling and magical events challenges that way of life forever.

First, there’s the arrival of Arthur, a knowledgeable spider with a broken leg and a curious mind, hidden in an old typewriter. Then Jillian throws everyone for a loop when she brings home dear, sweet Ollie, a school houseplant who just wants to be friends and sing. When Toasty splashes the plants with his tank water out of frustration, the friends learn that they can do magical things—like lift heavy objects and turn things invisible!

It turns out Toasty’s fishtank isn’t just for fish; it was made by a curious inventor who gave it special powers that, in the wrong hands, could disrupt everything forever. And a curious man with purple shoes just so happens to want that tank at any cost. Can Ivy, Toasty, Arthur, and Ollie grow to be friends in time to work together to save their beloved Tupper family from utter ruin?

Worth Fighting For

Jesse Q. Sutanto

Laugh and swoon with the next book in Disney's Meant to Be collection by bestselling and award-winning author Jesse Q. Sutanto, whose novel Dial A For Aunties Emily Henry called "Utterly clever, deeply funny, and altogether charming."

Mulan's ready to get down to business. But when it comes to love, she hasn't got a clue.

As the right hand of her father's private equity company, Fa Mulan knows what it takes to succeed as a woman in a man's world: work twice as hard, be twice as smart, and burp twice as loud as any of the other finance bros she works with. So when her father unexpectedly falls ill in the middle of a critical acquisition, she is determined to see it through. There's just one hitch: the family company in question is known for its ultra masculine whiskey brand, and the brood of old-fashioned aunts, uncles, and cousins who run it--lead by the dedicated but overworked Shang--will only trust Mulan's father, Fa Zhou, with the future of their business.

Rather than fail the deal and her father, Mulan pretends she's Fa Zhou. Since they've only corresponded over email, how hard could it be to keep things moving in his absence?

But the email leads to a face-to-face meeting, which leads to an invitation to a week long retreat at Shang's family ranch. One meeting she can handle, but a whole week of cattle wrangling, axe-throwing, and learning proper butchering techniques, all while trying to convince Shang's dubious family that this young woman is the powerful private equity CEO they've been negotiating with? Not so much--especially as she finds it harder and harder to ignore the undeniable spark between her and Shang.

Can she keep her head in the game and make her father proud, all while trying not to fall into a trough, or in love with Shang?

Named a Most Anticipated book of Summer 2025 by The New York TimesPeople USA Today Marie Claire ∙ E! News ∙ Brit + Co ∙ Yahoo! Life ∙ She Reads ∙ and more!

Joni Lark has a secret. She’s one of the most coveted songwriters in LA, and yet she can’t write. There’s an emptiness inside her, and nothing seems to fill it.

When she returns to her hometown of Vienna Shores, North Carolina, she hopes that the sand, the surf, and the concerts at The Revelry, her family’s music venue, will spark inspiration. But when Joni gets there, nothing is how she left it. Her best friend is hiding something, her mother’s memories are fading fast, and The Revelry is closing.

How can Joni write when her world is leaving her behind?

Until she hears it. A melody in her head, lyric-less and half-formed, and an alluring and addictive voice to go with it—belonging, apparently, to a wry musician with an emptiness of his own.

Surely, he’s a figment of Joni’s overworked imagination.

Then a very real man shows up in Vienna Shores. He’s arrogant and guarded—nothing like the sweet, funny voice in Joni’s head—and he has a plan for breaking their inconvenient telepathic connection: finish the song haunting them both and hope they don’t risk their hearts—or their secrets—in the process.

Because that melody, the one drawing them together . . . what if it’s there for a reason?

When eldest son Roman Carruthers is summoned home after his father’s car accident, he finds his younger brother, Dante, in debt to dangerous criminals and his sister, Neveah, exhausted from holding the family—and the family business—together. Neveah and their father, who run the Carruthers Crematorium in the run-down central Virginia town of Jefferson Run, see death up close every day. But mortality draws even closer when it becomes clear that the crash that landed their father in a coma was no accident and Dante’s recklessness has placed them all in real danger.

Roman, a financial whiz with a head for numbers and a talent for making his clients rich, has some money to help buy his brother out of trouble. But in his work with wannabe tough guys, he’s forgotten that there are real gangsters out there. As his bargaining chips go up in smoke, Roman realizes that he has only one thing left to offer to save his brother: himself, and his own particular set of skills.

Roman begins his work for the criminals while Neveah tries to uncover the long-ago mystery of what happened to their mother, who disappeared when they were teenagers. But Roman is far less of a pushover than the gangsters realize. He is willing to do anything to save his family. Anything.

Because everything burns. 

“A fast-paced thriller that will have readers asking whether the ends justify the means if there is no end in sight. . . Reminiscent of the great tragedies, this is Cosby at his best.”

Battle of the Bookstores

Ali Brady

INSTANT USA TODAY BESTSELLER
A LibraryReads Pick

Rivalry and romance spark when two bookstore managers who are opposites in every way find themselves competing for the same promotion.

Despite managing bookstores on the same Boston street, Josie Klein and Ryan Lawson have never interacted much—Josie’s store focuses on serious literature, and Ryan’s sells romance only. But when the new owner of both stores decides to combine them, the two are thrust into direct competition. Only one manager will be left standing, decided by who turns the most profit over the summer. 

Efficient and detail-oriented Josie instantly clashes with easygoing and disorganized Ryan. Their competing events and contrasting styles lead to more than just frustration—the sparks between them might just set the whole store on fire. Their only solace during this chaos is the friendship they’ve each struck up with an anonymous friend in an online book forum. Little do they know they’re actually chatting with each other. 

As their rivalry heats up in real life, their online relationship grows, and when the walls between their stores come tumbling down, Josie and Ryan realize not all’s fair in love and war. And maybe, if they’re lucky, happily ever afters aren’t just for the books.

The Listeners

Maggie Stiefvater

An Oprah Daily Best Summer Read of 2025

“Maggie Stiefvater is an exceptional talent, and The Listeners is a marvel of storytelling. I really couldn’t have loved it more.” —Chris Whitaker, author of All The Colors of the Dark

“A novel that will remind readers of why they fell in love with reading in the first place.” —Kirkus Reviews, starred review

#1 New York Times bestselling novelist Maggie Stiefvater dazzles in this mesmerizing portrait of an irresistible heroine, an unlikely romance, and a hotel—and a world—in peril.

January 1942. The Avallon Hotel & Spa has always offered elegant luxury in the wilds of West Virginia, its mountain sweetwater washing away all of high society’s troubles.

Local girl-turned-general manager June Porter Hudson has guided the Avallon skillfully through the first pangs of war. The Gilfoyles, the hotel’s aristocratic owners, have trained her well. But when the family heir makes a secret deal with the State Department to fill the hotel with captured Axis diplomats, June must persuade her staff—many of whom have sons and husbands heading to the front lines—to offer luxury to Nazis. With a smile.

Meanwhile FBI Agent Tucker Minnick, whose coal tattoo hints at an Appalachian past, presses his ears to the hotel’s walls, listening for the diplomats’ secrets. He has one of his own, which is how he knows that June’s balancing act can have dangerous consequences: the sweetwater beneath the hotel can threaten as well as heal.

June has never met a guest she couldn’t delight, but the diplomats are different. Without firing a single shot, they have brought the war directly to her. As clashing loyalties crack the Avallon’s polished veneer, June must calculate the true cost of luxury.

It Rhymes with Takei

George Takei

Following the award-winning bestseller They Called Us Enemy, George Takei's new full-color graphic memoir reveals his most personal story of all-told in full for the first time anywhere!

George Takei has shown the world many faces- actor, author, outspoken activist, helmsman of the starship Enterprise, living witness to the internment of Japanese Americans, and king of social media. But until October 27, 2005, there was always one piece missing-one face he did not show the world. There was one very intimate fact about George that he never shared...and it rhymes with Takei.

Now, for the first time ever, George shares the full story of his life in the closet, his decision to come out as gay at the age of 68, and the way that moment transformed everything. Following the phenomenal success of his first graphic memoir, They Called Us Enemy, George Takei reunites with the team of Harmony Becker, Steven Scott, and Justin Eisinger for a jaw-dropping new testament. From his earliest childhood crushes and youthful experiments in the rigidly conformist 1950s, to global fame asv an actor and the terrible fear of exposure, to the watershed moment of speaking his truth and becoming one of the most high-profile gay men on the planet, It Rhymes with Takei offers a sweeping portrait of one iconic American navigating the tides of LGBTQ+ history.

Combining historical context with intimate subjectivity, It Rhymes with Takei shows how the personal and the political have always been intertwined. Its richly emotional words and images depict the terror of entrapment even in gay community spaces, the anguish of speaking up for so many issues while remaining silent on his most personal issue, the grief of losing friends to AIDS, the joy of finding true love with Brad Altman, and the determination to declare that love openly-and legally-before the whole world.

Looking back on his astonishing life on both sides of the closet door, George Takei presents a charismatic and candid account of how far America has come...and how precious that progress is.

The Little Witcher

Rafal Babraj

Putting a Witcher twist on family life, this delightful collection of comics features Geralt of Rivia as your average monster-slaying dad, trying to raise young Ciri to be a good kid while teaching her all about life as a witcher—a perfect gift for parents and The Witcher fans of all ages.

Young Ciri's extensive training at Kaer Morhen, the witchers' stronghold, includes everything she needs to learn to survive the many threats in her world . . . as well as all the antics and fun of a little girl bonding with her adoptive dad and family.

With help from Geralt and Ciri's closest companions—including the motherly magic of Yennefer of Vengerberg and the wisdom of uncle Vesemir—these adorable tales of a non-traditional family will make you laugh, make you sigh, and make you realize that raising a Little Witcher is not that different from raising any other kid. Sure, bedtime stories might include warnings of monsters who fart when surprised, and Geralt might invoke the Witcher Code to get Ciri to brush her teeth or clean her room, but even the formidable White Wolf knows to surrender when it comes to bedtime battles or Afternoon Tea with the toys.

The Little Witcher is perfect for:

 

  • The Witcher fans raising little Ciris of their own

Wake

Rebecca Hall

A Best Book of 2021 by NPR and The Washington Post

Part graphic novel, part memoir, Wake is an imaginative tour-de-force that tells the “powerful” (The New York Times Book Review) story of women-led slave revolts and chronicles scholar Rebecca Hall’s efforts to uncover the truth about these women warriors who, until now, have been left out of the historical record.

Women warriors planned and led revolts on slave ships during the Middle Passage. They fought their enslavers throughout the Americas. And then they were erased from history.

Wake tells the “riveting” (Angela Y. Davis) story of Dr. Rebecca Hall, a historian, granddaughter of slaves, and a woman haunted by the legacy of slavery. The accepted history of slave revolts has always told her that enslaved women took a back seat. But Rebecca decides to look deeper, and her journey takes her through old court records, slave ship captain’s logs, crumbling correspondence, and even the forensic evidence from the bones of enslaved women from the “negro burying ground” uncovered in Manhattan. She finds women warriors everywhere.

Using a “remarkable blend of passion and fact, action and reflection” (NPR), Rebecca constructs the likely pasts of Adono and Alele, women rebels who fought for freedom during the Middle Passage, as well as the stories of women who led slave revolts in Colonial New York. We also follow Rebecca’s own story as the legacy of slavery shapes her life, both during her time as a successful attorney and later as a historian seeking the past that haunts her.

Illustrated beautifully in black and white, Wake will take its place alongside classics of the graphic novel genre, like Marjane Satrapi’s Persepolis and Art Spiegelman’s Maus. This story of a personal and national legacy is a powerful reminder that while the past is gone, we still live in its wake.

Uncomfortably Happily

Yeon-sik Hong

"Uncomfortably Happily by Yeon-sik Hong tells the story of its author’s decision to leave 21st-century Seoul and move with his wife to a small house on top of a mountain... Charming and perhaps unexpectedly complex."—Guardian, Best Graphic Novels of 2017

When the gentler pace and stillness of the countryside replace the roar of the city, but your editor keeps calling

With gorgeously detailed yet minimal art, cartoonist Yeon-Sik Hong explores his move with his wife to a small house atop a rural mountain, replacing the high-rent hubbub of Seoul with the quiet murmur of the country. With their dog, cats, and chickens by their side, the simple life and isolation they so desperately craved proves to present new anxieties. Hong paints a beautiful portrait of the Korean countryside, changing seasons, and the universal relationships humans have with each other as well as nature, both of which are sometimes frustrating but always rewarding.

Uncomfortably Happily is translated by American cartoonist Hellen Jo from the acclaimed Manhwa Today award-winning Korean edition.

They Called Us Enemy

George Takei

New York Times Bestseller!

A stunning graphic memoir recounting actor/author/activist George Takei's childhood imprisoned within American concentration camps during World War II. Experience the forces that shaped an American icon -- and America itself -- in this gripping tale of courage, country, loyalty, and love.

George Takei has captured hearts and minds worldwide with his captivating stage presence and outspoken commitment to equal rights. But long before he braved new frontiers in Star Trek, he woke up as a four-year-old boy to find his own birth country at war with his father's -- and their entire family forced from their home into an uncertain future.

In 1942, at the order of President Franklin D. Roosevelt, every person of Japanese descent on the west coast was rounded up and shipped to one of ten "relocation centers," hundreds or thousands of miles from home, where they would be held for years under armed guard.

They Called Us Enemy is Takei's firsthand account of those years behind barbed wire, the joys and terrors of growing up under legalized racism, his mother's hard choices, his father's faith in democracy, and the way those experiences planted the seeds for his astonishing future.

What does it mean to be American? Who gets to decide? When the world is against you, what can one person do? To answer these questions, George Takei joins co-writers Justin Eisinger & Steven Scott and artist Harmony Becker for the journey of a lifetime.
