Multi-million copy bestselling author Colleen Hoover tells fan favourite Atlas’s side of the story and shares what comes next in this long-anticipated sequel to the #1 Sunday Times bestseller It Ends with Us.
Lily and her ex-husband, Ryle, have just settled into a civil co-parenting rhythm when she suddenly bumps into her first love, Atlas, again. After nearly two years separated, she is elated that for once, time is on their side, and she immediately says yes when Atlas asks her on a date.
But her excitement is quickly hampered by the knowledge that, though they are no longer married, Ryle is still very much a part of her life—and Atlas Corrigan is the one man he will hate being in his ex-wife and daughter’s life.
Switching between the perspectives of Lily and Atlas, It Starts with Us picks up right where the epilogue for the bestselling phenomenon It Ends with Us left off.
Experience the romantic and satisfying conclusion to Colleen Hoover's powerful global bestselling novel, It Ends with Us.
The Sky on Fire is a daring new fantasy heist adventure from Jenn Lyons
that will thrill fans of Temeraire, Fourth Wing and Dragonriders of
Pern.
Anahrod lives only for survival, forging her own way through the harsh
jungles of the Deep with her titan drake by her side. Even when an
adventuring party saves her from capture by a local warlord, she is
eager to return to her solitary life.
But this is no ordinary rescue. It’s Anahrod’s past catching up with
her. These cunning misfits – and their frustratingly appealing
dragonrider ringleader – intend to spirit her away to the dragon-ruled
sky cities, where they need her help to steal from a dragon’s hoard.
There’s just one problem: the hoard in question belongs to the current
regent, Neveranimas – and she wants Anahrod dead.
From the acclaimed author of the Chorus of Dragons series, this soaring
stand-alone fantasy combines conniving dragons, lightning banter,
high-stakes intrigue and a little bit of heat.
The thrilling sequel to the instant Sunday Times bestseller and number one global phenomenon, Fourth Wing!
She survived her first year at Basgiath War College . . . but the danger is only beginning.
Everyone expected Violet Sorrengail to die during her first year at Basgiath War College, Violet included. But Threshing was only the first impossible test meant to weed out the weak-willed, the unworthy, and the unlucky.
Now the real training begins, and Violet's already wondering how she'll get through. It's not just that it's grueling and maliciously brutal, or even that it's designed to stretch the riders' capacity for pain beyond endurance. It's the new vice commandant, who's made it his personal mission to teach Violet exactly how powerless she is - unless she betrays the man she loves.
Although Violet's body might be weaker and frailer than everyone else's, she still has her wits, and a will of iron. And leadership is forgetting the most important lesson Basgiath has taught her: Dragon riders make their own rules.
But a determination to survive won't be enough this year.
Because Violet knows the real secret hidden for centuries at Basgiath War College - and nothing, not even dragon fire, may be enough to save them in the end.

Shenzhi, who has risen to the throne.

THE ORIGINAL HERO. A BRAND-NEW ADVENTURE.
Percy Jackson has saved the world multiple times – battling monsters,
Titans, even death himself – so graduating high school should be a
breeze, right?
Wrong. Percy needs three recommendation letters from the gods before
his final year in high school comes to an end. And one thing Percy
knows, the gods on Mount Olympus don’t do anything for free.
To secure his second letter, Percy and his friends Annabeth and Grover
agree to a new quest – pet-sitting for the goddess Hecate while she’s
away over Halloween. They just need to follow her simple rules:
- Look after the pets like their lives depend on it (because they
do)
- Don’t touch anything – especially Hecate’s magic potions!
- See points 1 and 2
But when Grover’s curiosity gets the better of him, the trio find
themselves with a giant goat, a destroyed house, and Hecate’s
(terrifying and potentially deadly) pets on the loose in New York City.
Now the trio have twenty-four hours to find the pets and restore the
mansion to order – or face the full fury of Hecate and her horrifying
three-heads.
JOIN THE TEAM. SAVE THE WORLD. Twin geniuses Jacob and Kira are
recruited to take part in a high-tech mission to protect the planet ...
but will their dreams of adventure come true, or is the threat too
great to handle?
Jacob and Kira live in the heart of Mbale, Uganda with their
conservationist mother and navigate life as unsuspecting geniuses; Kira
with hopes to explore outside the hot terrains of Uganda, and
conspiracy theorist Jacob, whose fear often holds him back from the
answers he so desperately wants to uncover.
But when they discover that someone has been watching their every move
in the hopes to enlist them in a top-secret agency called Transcendent,
their lives are turned upside down.
Soon the twins are hurtled from the luscious landscapes of Mbale, to
the sleek streets of London, where - alongside other selected protegees
- they must undertake three rigorous trials, each more difficult than
the last, to be accepted into Transcendent. If they are successful,
they will be launched into space to complete a high-stakes mission to
fight the greatest threat the world has ever seen.
Only, the twins soon realise they have more to contend with than they
bargained for ... is there a more sinister reason they have been chosen?
Two kids, one top-secret agency and an epic mission to save the world.

His truth. His story. In his words.
There have been many comments made and books written about Siya Kolisi, captain of the Springboks, and the first black man to lead his country in over 128 years of South African rugby.
But now, for the very first time, Siya Kolisi shares his story in an extraordinarily intimate memoir, charting his journey from being born into the impoverished Zwide township, to leading his proud nation to an astonishing victory at the Rugby World Cup in 2019.
However, Rise is not simply a chronology of matches played and games won; it is an exploration of a man’s race and his faith, a masterclass in attaining a positive mindset, and an inspirational reminder that it is possible to defy the odds, no matter how they are stacked against you.
In 2020, partly in response to the pandemic, Siya and his wife, Rachel, launched The Kolisi Foundation, providing personal protective equipment to healthcare workers and delivering food parcels throughout South Africa.
The title Rise is inspired by Siya’s mother – Phakama – which translates to the book’s name, as well as a celebration of his Xhosa heritage.
What are the secrets to a healthy, happy, and wealthy retirement?
To answer that question, longtime Morningstar columnist and podcaster
Christine Benz asked 20 retirement thought leaders to go deep on a
single lesson that they believe contributes to success in retirement.
These lessons range from nitty gritty financial matters to
quality-of-life considerations that help pre-retirees and retirees
maximize their “time on earth” allocations.
On the financial side of the ledger, the book delves into knowing your
retirement income style (Wade Pfau), understanding how your spending
might change in retirement (David Blanchett), and organizing your
portfolio to support in-retirement cash flows (William Bernstein).
Other interviews probe softer but no less important considerations,
such as how to spend in order to optimize happiness (Ramit Sethi), the
value of burnishing relationships later in life (Laura Carstensen), and
living life so that you have no regrets in the end (Jordan Grumet).
These lessons help soon-to-retire and already-retired individuals and
their advisors tackle retirement with confidence, wisdom, and a
specific plan for maximizing their financial and human capital.

Born to an American myth and raised in the wilds of Graceland, Lisa
Marie Presley tells her whole story for the first time in this raw,
riveting, one-of-a-kind memoir faithfully completed by her daughter,
Riley Keough.
In 2022, Lisa Marie Presley asked her daughter to help finally finish
her long-conceived memoir.
A month later, Lisa Marie was dead, and the world would never know her
story in her own words; never know the passionate, joyful, caring, and
complicated woman that Riley loved and grieved.
Riley got the tapes that her mother had recorded for the book, lay in
her bed, and listened as Lisa Marie told story after story: about
smashing golf carts together in the yards of Graceland; about the
unconditional love she felt from her father; about being upstairs, just
the two of them. About getting dragged screaming out of the bathroom as
she ran towards his body on the floor. About living in Los Angeles with
her mother, getting sent to school after school, always kicked out,
always in trouble. About her singular, lifelong relationship with Danny
Keough, and about being married to Michael Jackson, and what they had
in common. About motherhood. About deep addiction. About ever-present
grief. Riley knew she had to fulfill her mother’s wish to reveal these
memories, incandescent and painful, to the world.
To make her mother known.
This extraordinary book is composed of both Lisa Marie’s and Riley’s
voices, a mother and daughter communicating across the chasm of life
and death as they try to heal each other. Profoundly moving and deeply
revealing, From Here to the Great Unknown is a book like no other – the
last words of the only child of a true legend.

Die raaisels begin net stof opgaar, toe die Molenberg psigiatriese
hospitaal vir dr. Ann Marais laat weet dat Vanessa Wessels haar wil
sien. Ná jare se stilte wil sy uiteindelik praat oor wat die aand van
die moord gebeur het. Dan kom Didi se seun, die skrywer Louis
Donkermann, ook uit die houtwerk met aantygings dat ’n jong skrywer sy
nuutste boek geplagieer het.

obsessie en letterkunde? En hoe vind jy die waarheid na soveel jare se
stilswye?

Welcome to the brutal and elite world of Basgiath War College . . .
Twenty-year-old Violet Sorrengail was supposed to enter the Scribe Quadrant, living a quiet life among books and history. Now, the commanding general - also known as her tough-as-talons mother - has ordered Violet to join the hundreds of candidates striving to become the elite of Navarre: dragon riders. But when you're smaller than everyone else and your body is brittle, death is only a heartbeat away . . . because dragons don't bond to 'fragile' humans. They incinerate them.
With fewer dragons willing to bond than cadets, most would kill Violet to better their own chances of success. The rest would kill her just for being her mother's daughter - like Xaden Riorson, the most powerful and ruthless wingleader in the Riders Quadrant. She'll need every edge her wits can give her just to see the next sunrise.
Yet, with every day that passes, the war outside grows more deadly, the kingdom's protective wards are failing, and the death toll continues to rise. Even worse, Violet begins to suspect leadership is hiding a terrible secret.
Everyone at Basgiath has an agenda, and every night could be your last. So, sleep with one eye open because once you enter, there are only two ways out: graduate or die.
