Dr. Margaret Richter has it all. She’s rich, thanks to her best-selling self-help books. She has a beautiful home in Cape Cod overlooking the beach. And she has a monthly book club that everyone is dying to get invited to. Literally. Because behind the crystal wine glasses, the fine linens and the catered hors d'oeuvres lies a tangled web of secrets, of deceit, of murder. No member of the book club is innocent—and many are guilty. And the person with the most to hide is Margaret Richter herself.

Bruce Lee: Letters of the Dragon is a fascinating glimpse of the private Bruce Lee behind the public image—a man with the patience and concern to dedicate as much effort to crafting a thoughtful personal answer to the letter of a young fan as to those from his old friends and associates; an extremely active man never too busy to make time for an old family friend in need of simple companionship; a man who never wrote without careful thought, and never thought from the head alone, but always from the head and heart together.

"Porno religioso improvisado" es un nuevo desafío a las lectoras de parte de Laura Lee Bahr, una de las autoras más extravagantes del panorama fantástico estadounidense contemporáneo. La historia de una directora de cine independiente resuelta a filmar un documental sobre un brutal asesinato en el que está involucrada una pareja gay, y en cuyo camino se cruzarán vampiros, fetichistas del pie, improvisadores con crisis de la mediana edad, gente con ínfulas de estrella, psicología chunga, hombres misteriosos y mucho sexo.

 The Art of Expressing the Human Body, a title coined by Bruce Lee himself to describe his approach to martial arts, documents the techniques he used so effectively to perfect his body for superior health and muscularity. 

Trapped in nightmares from my past, the only comfort I find is in gifts from the man who killed my mother's killer—presents wrapped in a body bag and delivered to the morgue for me to examine. From the first time I saw his mark, I knew I had to keep my killer safe, had to keep his work a secret for me and me alone. Every body is a love letter, and I'm the only one who can read them.

THE BIG BAD BULLY DOESN’T FALL FOR HIS PREY. Even if she smells like nutmeg, honey, and sin. Even if her chaos and color drips into your black-and-white discipline—and leaves it bleeding. I was raised in a pack that worshipped bloodlines and power. Humans were beneath us—soft, fragile, fleeting things. Fine for entertainment. Never for mating. Especially not for me, heir to one of the most ruthless alphas in the world.

I’m king of the criminal underworld. I always get what I want. And she’s my obsession. Cora is new to the city of sin. Her innocent blue eyes beg for me to claim her. But I’m not the billionaire she thinks I am. There’s a darkness within me. And Cora is a shining light. She’s beautiful. A virgin. I’m ruthless. A beast. She found me for a reason. She’ll be my queen. I’ll give her everything that her heart desires. Except for one thing. Her freedom. She’s mine to keep, and I’m never letting her go.

Nos últimos tempos eu tive um privilégio pra lá de especial: vi Rita escrever sua biografia. Era um momento que nem em meus sonhos mais loucos ousei experimentar. Como jornalista e curioso, sempre gostei de livros assim. História de gente interessante me move. E vi nascer, daquelas mãos de fada com sua estrela de sete pontas tatuada, a melhor bio que já li na vida. Sem exagero. No texto, Rita é de uma honestidade... Muitas vezes brutal. Que contrasta com sua doçura e com tanto amor e leveza.

Siamo nel 1990: il Muro di Berlino è caduto ed è finita un'era, non solo per i regimi comunisti ma anche per la macchina da guerra americana che di colpo si ritrova, mastodontica, senza un nemico da combattere. Il maggiore Reacher e molti valenti colleghi sono stati trasferiti in fretta, come se qualcuno presagisse un pericolo. E qualcosa in effetti accade. Un generale che avrebbe dovuto trovarsi in Germania muore d'infarto, in uno squallido motel vicino alla base di Reacher.

A medio camino entre la laberíntica "Carretera Perdida" y la hipnótica "Mulholland Drive", "Fantasma" nos habla de tú a tú en una historia que mezcla realidades, horrores cotidianos y terror metafísico, todo ello aderezado con un sentido del humor que bien podría denominarse "malvado". Una rareza imprescindible para los paladares acostumbrados al terror de buena añada.

The dignified mother of a ruthless African dictator travels to England to seek treatment for her failed eyes from a renowned ophthalmologist. At first glance, it looks like one woman helping another, but each woman brings to the other her true agenda, triggering a profound moral dilemma and a chain reaction of events with great personal and political aftershocks.

Rita pode ter tido de tudo, menos uma “vidinha besta”. E os últimos anos foram, sim, desafiadores. Ao mesmo tempo que o mundo passava por uma pandemia, ela foi diagnosticada com câncer no pulmão. Em um texto franco, ora cru e chocante, ora cheio de ironias, ora sutil e amoroso, Rita Lee não poupa detalhes de seu tratamento. Fala também da rotina, dos avisos do Universo, de seres de luz e dos caminhos que a vida tomou.

Everything goes as planned...until Nate and I wake up the next day, hung-over, wearing identical golden wedding bands, and with no memory of what happened the night before. Cue major hyperventilation. But it's okay. Nothing that a quick marriage dissolution can't solve...until the pregnancy test stick comes back with two pink lines...

Le avventure di Jack Reacher 9. Venerdì, le cinque del pomeriggio. Sei spari esplodono improvvisi in una cittadina di provincia dell'Indiana. Sei colpi di fucile su una folla inerme, in una piazza del centro. Persone qualsiasi, gente che va a far spese o che sta tornando a casa per godersi il week­end. A terra cinque corpi senza vita: quattro uomini e una donna.
