The # 1 New York Times bestselling sequel to Sarah J. Maas' spellbinding A Court of Thorns and Roses.

Nanny Ogg, one of Discworld’s most famous witches, has decided to pass on some of her huge collection of tasty and exceedingly interesting recipes. In addition to the delights of the Strawberry Wobbler and Nobby’s Mum’s Distressed Pudding, Mrs Ogg imparts her thoughts on life, death, etiquette, courtship, children and weddings, all in a refined style that should not offend the most delicate of sensibilities. Well, not much…
Most of the recipes have been tried out on people who are still alive.
Mrs Ogg gratefully acknowledges the assistance of Mr. Terry Pratchett, Mr. Stephen Briggs, Mlle Tina Hannan and Master Paul Kidby.

Lou Clark knows lots of things. She knows how many footsteps there are between the bus stop and home. She knows she likes working in The Buttered Bun tea shop and she knows she might not love her boyfriend Patrick. What Lou doesn't know is she's about to lose her job or that knowing what's coming is what keeps her sane.

Whatever life a woman leads, from biker chick to society girl, there's a stereotype she'll have to live down. The Guerrilla Girls , notorious for their outrageous take on women's issues, now tackle the maze of stereotypes that follow women from cradle to grave. With subversive use of information-and great visuals-they explore the history and significance of stereotypes like Old Maid, Trophy Wife, and Prostitute with a Heart of Gold. They tag the Top Types, examine sexual slurs, explain the evolution of butches and femmes, and delve into the lives of real and fictional women who have become stereotypes, from Aunt Jemima to Tokyo Rose to June Cleaver. The Guerrilla Girls' latest assault on injustice towards women will make people laugh, make them mad, and maybe even make them change their minds.

Nominated through on-line votes and selected by Life editors, the 100 images in this compendium cover unforgettable moments in "The Arts," "Society," "War & Peace" and "Science & Nature." The photographs are all striking-whether visually or viscerally, artistically or emotionally-but many are difficult to look at. As Gordon Parks writes in his introduction, "these images helped push us toward a change." And so it's possible to revisit the moments when a white crowd in Indiana cheered at the hanging bodies of two black men, when grieving members of AIDS activist David Kirby gathered around his deathbed, when the 1937 bombing of Shanghai left a train station destroyed and a single bloody child alone amidst the wreckage. There are a few lighter moments-the Beatles arriving at JFK in 1964, the American Olympic hockey team celebrating their 1980 landmark victory over the "Soviet machine"-but over all, this gathering of photos shows our darker hours. There's little here that hasn't been reprinted numerous times, but it's a stirring collection nevertheless.

Eleanor... Red hair, wrong clothes. Standing behind him until he turns his head. Lying beside him until he wakes up. Making everyone else seem drabber and flatter and never good enough...Eleanor.
Park... He knows she'll love a song before he plays it for her. He laughs at her jokes before she ever gets to the punch line. There's a place on his chest, just below his throat, that makes her want to keep promises...Park.
Set over the course of one school year, this is the story of two star-crossed sixteen-year-olds—smart enough to know that first love almost never lasts, but brave and desperate enough to try.

Mark Haddon's bitterly funny debut novel, The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time, is a murder mystery of sorts--one told by an autistic version of Adrian Mole. Fifteen-year-old Christopher John Francis Boone is mathematically gifted and socially hopeless, raised in a working-class home by parents who can barely cope with their child's quirks. He takes everything that he sees (or is told) at face value, and is unable to sort out the strange behavior of his elders and peers.
Late one night, Christopher comes across his neighbor's poodle, Wellington, impaled on a garden fork. Wellington's owner finds him cradling her dead dog in his arms, and has him arrested. After spending a night in jail, Christopher resolves--against the objection of his father and neighbors--to discover just who has murdered Wellington. He is encouraged by Siobhan, a social worker at his school, to write a book about his investigations, and the result--quirkily illustrated, with each chapter given its own prime number--is The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time.


Haddon's novel is a startling performance. This is the sort of book that could turn condescending, or exploitative, or overly sentimental, or grossly tasteless very easily, but Haddon navigates those dangers with a sureness of touch that is extremely rare among first-time novelists. The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time is original, clever, and genuinely moving: this one is a must-read. --Jack Illingworth, Amazon.ca--This text refers to the Hardcover edition.

A Game of Thrones
Long ago, in a time forgotten, a preternatural event threw the seasons out of balance. In a land where summers can last decades and winters a lifetime, trouble is brewing. The cold is returning, and in the frozen wastes to the north of Winterfell, sinister and supernatural forces are massing beyond the kingdom’s protective Wall. At the center of the conflict lie the Starks of Winterfell, a family as harsh and unyielding as the land they were born to. Sweeping from a land of brutal cold to a distant summertime kingdom of epicurean plenty, here is a tale of lords and ladies, soldiers and sorcerers, assassins and bastards, who come together in a time of grim omens.
Here an enigmatic band of warriors bear swords of no human metal; a tribe of fierce wildlings carry men off into madness; a cruel young dragon prince barters his sister to win back his throne; and a determined woman undertakes the most treacherous of journeys. Amid plots and counterplots, tragedy and betrayal, victory and terror, the fate of the Starks, their allies, and their enemies hangs perilously in the balance, as each endeavors to win that deadliest of conflicts: the game of thrones.

《美丽新世界》是二十世纪最经典的反乌托邦文学之一。这部作品与乔治·奥威尔的《1984》、扎米亚京的《我们》并称为“反乌托邦”三书，在国内外思想界影响深远。
书中引用了广博的生物学、心理学知识，为我们描绘了虚构的福特纪元632年即公元2532年的社会。这是一个人从出生到死 亡都受着控制的社会。在这个“美丽新世界”里，由于社会与生物控制技术的发展，人类已经沦为垄断基因公司和政治人物手中的玩偶。这种统治甚至从基因和胎儿阶段就开始了。
这是一个有阶级、有社会分工的社会，人类经基因控制孵化，被分为五个阶级，分别从事劳心、劳力、创造、统治等不同性质的社会活动。人们习惯于自己从事的任何工作，视恶劣的生活和工作环境与极高的工作强度为幸福。因此，这是，一个快乐的社会，这种快乐还有别的措施保障，比如睡眠教学，催眠术被广泛用来校正人的思维，国家还发放叫做索麻的精神麻醉药物让人忘掉不愉快的事情。
正是在这个“美丽新世界”里，人们失去了个人情感，失去了爱情——性代替了爱，失去了痛苦、激情和经历危险的感觉。最可怕的是，人们失去了思考的权利，失去了创造力。

“欧洲，为什么老是抢第一？”澳大利亚知名历史学家约翰•赫斯特在本书中的一场引人入胜的探索，为我们梳理出欧洲文明所以能改变全世界的各种特质。
作者从三大元素：古希腊罗马文化、基督教教义以及日耳曼战士文化开篇，描述了这三大元素如何彼此强化，又相互对立，最终形塑为欧洲文明的内 核；继而在诸多世纪以来催生帝国与城邦，激发征服与十字军东侵，造就出许多性格截然分明的人物——如仁慈的皇帝、好斗的教皇、侠义的骑士，乃至世上第一批享受繁荣和启蒙果实的公民。哲学思维、民主制度的渊源、政治权力的传递、甚至是医学、生物学使用拉丁文的源始，这种种欧洲因素不断形塑了现代文明的各种特质，使欧洲遥遥走在现代世界的前列。
本书以清晰、幽默、发人深省的笔调，杂以活泼的插图，叙述了一个不同凡响的文明，及其对人类社会的巨大冲击与巨大贡献。

这里有一些胡思乱想。在这里你可以听到上亿个神经元在大脑皮质回沟里呼哧呼哧跑步的声音，也可以闻到将历史、悬疑、灵异、科幻、宗教之类的话题扔进搅拌器里哐当哐当混合成鸡尾酒的古怪气味。这里是迷宫，是异教徒的告解室，是小径分岔的花园，但你绝不会知道自己身在何处。
——马伯庸
没有一位当代作者可以把时事讽刺写得这样妙趣横生。有时候你想对这个社会说点什么，却不敢说；有时候你鼓起勇气开口，却不知道该怎么说，马伯庸替大家写出了想说却没法开口的话。
