Growing up in the 1990s, a young girl escapes her abusive parents–and the “ranch” they ran for “bad” girls—and becomes an advocate for teen runaways in this harrowing and heartfelt novel for fans of Joanna Goodman and Lisa Wingate.While other adolescent girls are listening to grunge rock or swooning over boy bands and movie stars, Loretta knows little of life beyond the Home for Wayward Girls, the secluded ranch where her parents run a program designed to “correct” teen girls’ “bad behavior.” Some new residents arrive with their moms and dads, while other are accompanied by transporters—people paid to forcibly deliver these “problem” teens—girls caught swearing, smoking, drinking, or kissing. Many are failed runaways desperate to leave their controlling and sometimes brutal homes. Few have any idea of the suffering that lies ahead.Loretta witnesses firsthand how the adults use abusive discipline to crush these young women’s spirits and break their wills. She understands these girls’ pain and shares it. Since childhood she’s been afraid of her father, and avoids him by spending time with the residents, secretly teaching them the survival skills they’ll need in case they manage to escape. Until the day a horrifying act of violence forces her to make her own terrible choice. Terrified and with no other option, Loretta flees the ranch and hitchhikes across the country, ending up in New York. Eventually finding safety and a sympathetic community, Loretta dedicates herself to working with lost, vulnerable, and defenseless teens, determined to prevent the same thing from happening to other girls like her.

Dear children, imagine if you can - how could such a thing happen to pussycats and doggies!? Well, it does happen. Sometimes. When there is the right time and if you can imagine that pussycats and doggies are dressed in their skins just like people are in clothes. A hole in the pants like that is disgraceful for everybody, who wears pants. Th at means doggies as well. People or even animals have to be very careful with their things, because the careless ones could have other things happen to them as well. They could perhaps break some beautiful toy, or even worse, they could loose it. Now you can't pretend to race with a broken toy car, and you can't pretend to cook with a lost bucket; and we haven't even talked about toys that have not been put away. Th ey are the saddest of all toys in the world ever, when their mummies and daddies, those girls and boys, don't put them away properly. You can perhaps loose a toy or some money by accident, but leaving a toy or even a doll lying somewhere, that is not a done thing among well-behaved children. Not that. Now, since we all know that sometimes some child, a girl or a boy does that, that is why we want to tell you about one small, lost and poor doll, so that you realize that such things must never be done. So bye-bye and regards Yours PUSSYCAT and DOGGIE

Each of us has thoughts that are painful at times; sometimes the pain is sadness, sometimes worry or anger or shame or grief or some feeling that you don''t even have words for. If you are a young person struggling with your emotions, you do not want to be told that ''everyone feels like that'' or that ''you will grow out of it''. You want to feel that your emotions are valid and that the person offering help truly understands how painful life can feel at times. With a strong emphasis on validation and compassion, Stuff That Sucks encourages you to accept your emotions rather than struggling against them. It also shows how to reconnect with what is really important to you, giving you the tools to help clarify your personal values and take steps towards living a life where those values can guide you in your day-to-day behaviour.

In 1912 the unthinkable happened - the supposedly unsinkable Titanic sank after hitting an iceberg, or so it was thought. In this bestselling book author Robin Gardiner claims that it was not in fact the Titanic but the sister ship, the Olympic, which finished its days sinking in the icy waters of the North Atlantic on that fateful night. His contention is that what happened was an insurance scam perpetrated by the White Star line which may have involved the possible collusion by the British government in the cover-up. On 20 September 1911, the Olympic was involved in a collision with the Royal Navy Warship HMS Hawke in Southampton Water. Olympic was found to be to blame in the collision. Because of this finding, White Star''s insurers allegedly refused to pay out on the claim. As this would amount to a serious financial loss for the company, it is alleged that, to make sure at least one vessel would be earning money, the badly damaged Olympic was patched up and then converted to become the Titanic. The real Titanic when complete would then quietly enter service as the Olympic. To dispose of the Olympic, which had allegedly been damaged beyond economic repair in a way that would allow White Star to collect the full insured value of a brand new ship, the plan was to open the seacocks at sea to slowly flood the ship. Numerous ships were stationed nearby to take off the passengers, the shortage of lifeboats would not matter as the ship would sink slowly and the boats could make several trips to the rescuers. The controversy which this theory has generated, and some of the evidence used to support it is compelling, has made this book into a bestseller in the years since it was first published. Regardless of whether you choose to believe in this version of the events that took place on that terrible night in 1912, which still resonate so strongly well over a century afterwards, Titanic: The Ship That Never Sank? is a fascinating, well written and absorbing read.

Then came the devastating, inevitable diagnosis of Alzheimer’s. The dad Simon knew seemed to be drifting further away, and he had no idea how to reach him.Then, one day in the car, Simon hit play on Ted’s favourite song. And just like that, they were simply two mates driving around Blackburn, singing at the top of their lungs. That moment would change the course of their lives forever.Simon filmed their adventure, uploaded the video to YouTube and woke up to messages, tweets and his phone ringing off the hook. Their carpool karaoke had gone viral all the way across the globe.But a record deal, Pride of Britain Awards, over £130,000 raised for The Alzheimer’s Society and a Top 10 single later, Simon was still losing Ted.

This is that story.Full of poignant moments, the ups and downs of family life and treasured memories, The Songaminute Man is a story of two halves: a celebration of the man Ted was, and a powerful and moving account of caring for a loved one.

He just has to stick to a lie he never meant to tell. That the notoriously troubled Connor Murphy was his secret best friend.Suddenly, Evan isn''t invisible anymore. And Connor''s wealthy parents have taken him in like he was their own, desperate to know more about their enigmatic son from his ''closest friend''.As Evan gets pulled deeper into their family, he knows that what he''s doing may not be right, but if he''s helping people, how wrong can it be?No longer tangled in his once-incapacitating anxiety, this new Evan has a purpose.He''s confident.

From famed zoologist Anthony Sinclair, an account of his decades-long quest to understand one of Earth's most spectacular ecosystemsWith its rich biodiversity, astounding wildlife, and breathtaking animal migrations, Serengeti is like no other ecosystem on the planet. A Place like No Other is Anthony Sinclair's firsthand account of how he and other scientists discovered the biological principles that regulate life in Serengeti and how they rule all of the natural world. When Sinclair first began studying this spectacular ecosystem in 1965, a host of questions confronted him. What environmental features make its annual migration possible? What determines the size of animal populations and the stunning diversity of species? What factors enable Serengeti to endure over time? In the five decades that followed, Sinclair and others sought answers. What they learned is that seven principles of regulation govern all natural processes in the Serengeti ecosystem. Sinclair shows how these principles can help us to understand and overcome the challenges facing Serengeti today, and how they can be used to repair damaged habitats throughout the world. Blending vivid storytelling with invaluable scientific insights from Sinclair's pioneering fieldwork in Africa, A Place like No Other reveals how Serengeti holds timely lessons for the restoration and conservation of our vital ecosystems.

''Raw, frank and utterly heartfelt, but full of love and joy too, one of the most moving and uplifting memoirs I''ve ever read.'' Daisy Buchanan''Evanna''s account of overcoming an eating disorder gives an unsparing insight into the mental health system, and the journey to true recovery. A beautifully courageous and honest memoir.'' Bonnie Wright''As well as charting her adolescent battle with anorexia, it offers a darkly compelling, highly topical account of journeying from girlhood to womanhood in the spotlight of global celebrity.'' The Mail on Sunday''A raw and powerful memoir, it shares lessons banishing self-hatred.'' The Sunday Telegraph''Gradually, I began to feel this dawning awareness that womanhood was coming for me, that it was looming inevitably, and it didn''t feel safe...''Evanna Lynch has long been viewed as a role model for people recovering from anorexia and the story of her casting as Luna Lovegood in the Harry Potter films has reached almost mythic proportions. Here, in her fascinating new memoir, Evanna confronts all the complexities and contradictions within herself and reveals how she overcame a life-threatening eating disorder, began to conquer her self-hate and confronted her fear of leaving the neatness and safety of girlhood for the unpredictable journey of being a woman, all in the glare of the spotlight of international fame.Delving into the very heart of a woman''s relationship with her own body, Evanna explores the pivotal moments and choices in her life that led her down the path of creativity and dreaming and away from the empty pursuit of perfection, and reaches towards acceptance of the wild, sensual and unpredictable reality of womanhood. This is a story of the tragedy and the glory of growing up, of mourning girlhood and stepping into the unknown, and how that act of courage is the most magical and creatively liberating thing a woman can do.

"Did you hear Evan Dando died last night?"Evan Dando spills the true story of his band’s tumultuous history and what it was like to be famous in the pre-internet days in this candid, colourful, and unputdownable memoir.After Kurt Cobain’s passing in 1994, everyone expected Evan Dando to be next. The Lemonheads frontman, songwriter and actor started in the 80s hardcore scene and went on to become a 90s icon with two gold records to his name. Think of Evan Dando, and you think of heroin chic, grunge and celebrity burnout. From sneaking into concerts as a child, to sleeping on floors in the punk rock days, to crashing at Johnny Depp’s place in Hollywood, he was right there in the thick of it. So much so that social media once reported his death.Now, very much alive and sober, Dando is going to tell his own story. Rumours of my Demise will remind readers what was so great about the pre-internet 90s: the innocence, the access, and the anonymity. Reclaiming the purity and exuberance of his early days and encapsulating the spirit of the era, this is a portrait of an artist who lives wholly for his music, and one that makes no apologies for doing so.

Držitel americké Národní knižní ceny Evan Osnos vytvořil soustředěný, brilantní a trefný záznam úspěšné celoživotní cesty Josepha R. Bidena Jr. do prezidentského úřadu. Současný americký prezident si dokázal udržet padesátiletou politickou kariéru, která ho dovedla až do Bílého domu, jeho život byl však poznamenáni hlubokými osobními ztrátami a zklamáními. Evan Osnos čerpal z téměř desetiletého zpravodajství pro časopis The New Yorker a v knize se mu podařilo zachytit mimořádný význam prezidentských voleb v roce 2020 i vykreslit jednotlivé osobnosti americké politiky. Jeho kniha je založena na dlouhých rozhovorech s Bidenem a na otevřených výpovědích více než stovky dalších aktérů, včetně bývalého prezidenta Baracka Obamy, Amy Klobucharové, Peta Buttigiega a řady aktivistů, poradců, členů Bidenovy rodiny i Bidenových odpůrců. Knižní portrét osvětluje Bidenovu dlouhou a rušnou kariéru v Senátu, osmileté účinkování ve funkci Obamova viceprezidenta i jeho rozhodnutí vyzvat Donalda Trumpa k souboji o prezidentský úřad a volbu senátorky Kamaly Harrisové jako kandidátky na viceprezidentku. Osnos se zamýšlí nad potížemi, se kterými se Biden bude muset potýkat během svého prezidenství, a zvažuje, jak měnící se země a obrovská škála zkušeností změnily jeho postoje k jednotlivým tématům. V tomto precizním portrétu se Biden jeví jako chybující, a přece rozhodný politik zocelený životními tragédiemi - jako člověk, který se možná až nečekaně dobře hodí pro svoji současnou historickou roli.

The new biography of President Joe Biden by National Book Award winner and New Yorker staff writer Evan Osnos - A Financial Times, Guardian and Daily Express Book of the Year 'A thoroughly readable primer' Guardian 'Biden has overcome unimaginable tribulation, multiple presidential primary humiliations, a potentially crippling speech impediment and his own mediocrity. Now he carries the hopes of billions upon his shoulders' Sunday Times President Joseph R. Biden Jr. has been called both the luckiest man and the unluckiest fortunate to have sustained a fifty-year political career that reached the White House, but also marked by deep personal losses that he has suffered. Yet even as Biden s life has been shaped by drama, it has also been powered by a willingness, rare at the top ranks of politics, to confront his shortcomings, errors and reversals of fortune. His trials have forged in him a deep empathy for others in hardship an essential quality as he addresses a nation at its most dire hour in decades. Blending up-close journalism and broader context, Evan Osnos illuminates Biden s life and captures the characters and meaning of an extraordinary presidential election. He draws on lengthy interviews with Biden and on revealing conversations with more than a hundred others, including President Barack Obama, Cory Booker, Amy Klobuchar, Pete Buttigieg, and a range of progressive activists, advisers, opponents, and Biden family members. In this nuanced portrait, Biden emerges as flawed, yet resolute, and tempered by the flame of tragedy a man who just may be uncannily suited for his moment in history.
