Abstract: What if you were the spark that could ignite a revolution? For years Laia has lived in fear. Fear of the Empire, fear of the Martials, fear of truly living at all. Born as a Scholar, shes never had much of a choice. For Elias its the opposite. He has seen too much on his path to becoming a Mask, one of the Empires elite soldiers. With the Masks help the Empire has conquered a continent and enslaved thousands of Scholars, all in the name of power. When Laias brother is taken she must force herself to help the Resistance, the only people who have a chance of saving him. She must spy on the Commandant, ruthless overseer of Blackcliff Academy. Blackcliff is the training ground for Masks and the very place that Elias is planning to escape. If he succeeds, he will be named deserter. If found, the punishment will be death. But once Laia and Elias meet, they find that their destinies are intertwined and that their choices will change the fate of the Empire. In the ashes of a broken world one person can make a difference. One voice in the dark can be heard. The price of freedom is always high and this time that price might demand everything, even life itself.

Abstract: The Name of the Wind is fantasy at its very best, and an astounding must-read title. 'I have stolen princesses back from sleeping barrow kings. I burned down the town of Trebon. I have spent the night with Felurian and left with both my sanity and my life. I was expelled from the University at a younger age than most people are allowed in. I tread paths by moonlight that others fear to speak of during day. I have talked to Gods, loved women, and written songs that make the minstrels weep. My name is Kvothe. You may have heard of me' So begins the tale of Kvothe - currently known as Kote, the unassuming innkeepter - from his childhood in a troupe of traveling players, through his years spent as a near-feral orphan in a crime-riddled city, to his daringly brazen yet successful bid to enter a difficult and dangerous school of magic. In these pages you will come to know Kvothe the notorious magician, the accomplished thief, the masterful musician, the dragon-slayer, the legend-hunter, the lover, the thief and the infamous assassin. The Name of the Wind is fantasy at its very best, and an astounding must-read title.

Abstract: Eine Nacht, eine Party und zahlreiche Familiengeheimnisse. (DR) Die berühmte »Riva Party«, die Sommerparty des Supermodels Nina Riva, ist jedes Jahr ein fester Termin im Kalender der Reichen und Schönen. Und jedes Mal ereignen sich während der Feier andere Vorfälle, die für Schlagzeilen sorgen. Doch dieses Jahr toppt die Party alles. Eigentlich will Nina das Event am liebsten absagen, da ihr Mann sie für eine Tennisspielerin verlassen hat, aber sie möchte den Erwartungen schlussendlich doch gerecht werden. Die Party findet also statt, wenn auch mit einigen unerwarteten Gästen und der Offenbarung einiger Familiengeheimnisse. Taylor Jenkins Reid, die vor allem mit »The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo« bekannt wurde, berührt mit ihrem neuen Roman wieder auf ganz besondere Weise. Durch die Geschichte bekommen die Leser*innen einen Einblick in das Leben eines (fiktiven) Promis. Wer bereits andere Romane von der Autorin gelesen hat, wird die ein oder andere Verbindung zwischen den Büchern erkennen. Jede Geschichte ist unabhängig lesbar, aber es kommen immer wieder Personen und Orte aus anderen Romanen der Autorin vor. Sehr empfehlenswert für alle Büchereien!

Abstract: "An unspeakable crime. A confounding investigation ... An eleven-year-old boy's violated corpse is found in a town park. Eyewitnesses and fingerprints point unmistakably to one of Flint City's most popular citizens. He is Terry Maitland, Little League coach, English teacher, husband, and father of two girls. Detective Ralph Anderson, whose son Maitland once coached, orders a quick and very public arrest. The case seems ironclad, especially when Anderson and the district attorney are able to add DNA evidence to go with the fingerprints and witnesses. But Maitland has an alibi, and it turns out his story has incontrovertible evidence of its own. How can two opposing stories be true?"--Jacket

Abstract: London, 2019. Life has been easy for Maxim Trevelyan. With his good looks, aristocratic connections, and money, he's never had to work and he's rarely slept alone. But all that changes when tragedy strikes and Maxim inherits his family's noble title, wealth, and estates, and all the responsibility that entails. It's a role he's not prepared for and one that he struggles to face. But his biggest challenge is fighting his desire for an unexpected, enigmatic young woman who's recently arrived in England, possessing little more than a dangerous and troublesome past. Reticent, beautiful, and musically gifted, she's an alluring mystery, and Maxim's longing for her deepens into a passion that he's never experienced and dares not name. Just who is Alessia Demachi? Can Maxim protect her from the malevolence that threatens her? And what will she do when she learns that he's been hiding secrets of his own?

Abstract: When Korede's dinner is interrupted one night by a distress call from her sister, Ayoola, she knows what's expected of her: bleach, rubber gloves, nerves of steel and a strong stomach. This'll be the third boyfriend Ayoola's dispatched in, quote, self-defence and the third mess that her lethal little sibling has left Korede to clear away. She should probably go to the police for the good of the menfolk of Nigeria, but she loves her sister and, as they say, family always comes first. Until, that is, Ayoola starts dating the doctor where Korede works as a nurse. Korede's long been in love with him, and isn't prepared to see him wind up with a knife in his back: but to save one would mean sacrificing the other... My Sister, the Serial Killer is a blackly comic novel about how blood is thicker - and more difficult to get out of the carpet - than water...

Abstract: Angie has always wanted to travel. But at twenty-seven, she has barely stepped outside the small mining town where she was born. Instead, she discovers the world through stories told to her by passing travellers, dreaming that one day she'll see it all for herself. When her grandmother passes away, leaving Angie with no remaining family, she is ready to start her own adventures. Then she finds a letter revealing the address of the father she never knew, and realises instantly where her journey must begin: Italy. As Angie sets out to find the truth - about her family, her past and who she really is - will mysterious and reckless Italian Alessandro help guide the way?
