To become the first queen in centuries, a powerfully blessed blacksmith must use her wits and fire magic to overthrow the corrupt powers ruling her kingdom—while also fighting her growing desire for one of her dragon-riding adversaries—in the first book of a sizzling Celtic-inspired fantasy romance duology. Once a territory built on matriarchal rule and values, Tìr Teine has since grown frail from a long line of fruitless kings. The most recent of which have ruled under the influence of the True Religion, an oppressive group who have steadily poisoned the region with their anti-magic teachings. Born to rule and blessed by fire, Aemyra has begrudgingly lived in hiding rather than risk her life in court, waiting in anticipation for the current king’s death so she can bond to his dragon, claim her throne, and protect her people. But when the king dies and Aemyra is ready to take what is rightfully hers, her ambitious plan is foiled and she is thrust into a game of vicious politics and plots. Her biggest adversary is Prince Fiorean, a dragon-rider and one of the most powerful fire wielders in the territory. Cold, arrogant, and blindly supportive of his corrupt family, he is everything Aemyra despises. But as chaos engulfs the court, they find themselves reluctantly entwined, forced to forge an uneasy alliance—one that quickly ignites into something more dangerous than either of them expected. Behind enemy lines and slowly falling for her so-called adversary, Aemyra uncovers just how far the rot of corruption has spread, and what she may have to sacrifice to claim her throne.

Una novela desternillante y feroz sobre vínculos, pérdidas, desastres familiares y la aventura de crecer. Veronica pasa su infancia y adolescencia en un barrio de Roma junto con su excéntrica una madre omnipresente que vive permanentemente angustiada, un padre lleno de estrafalarias obsesiones y un hermano mayor, casi perfecto, que es el centro de toda la atención. Día a día tendrá que sortear situaciones tan embarazosas como desternillantes y descubrirá la impostura como forma de mantenerse cuerda y lidiar con la vida que le ha tocado en suerte. En esta divertidísima novela, ganadora del Premio Strega Giovani y que ha causado sensación en Italia, Raimo nos ofrece una precisa radiografía de esa energía paralizante que puede llegar a ser la familia y de la empresa siempre incierta que es convertirse en mujer. Nada es verdad es un extraordinario retrato generacional, feroz e irreverente, sobre vínculos, pérdidas, desastres familiares y la aventura de crecer; una novela que rebosa inteligencia y que nos recuerda el valor siempre terapéutico de la comedia. «Prepárate para estar hablando de este libro durante mucho, mucho tiempo.» Paolo Giordano «La nieta díscola de Léxico familiar de Natalia Ginzburg.» Il Corriere della Sera «Cuando empiezas a leer un libro y ves que, desde el minuto uno, es graciosísimo y perturbador, sabes que te has topado con algo especial.

Raimo escribe con una delicada brutalidad, es desternillante a la par que desgarradora.» Monica Ali

A heartbreaking and hilarious memoir by iCarly and Sam & Cat star Jennette McCurdy about her struggles as a former child actor—including eating disorders, addiction, and a complicated relationship with her overbearing mother—and how she retook control of her life. Jennette McCurdy was six years old when she had her first acting audition. Her mother’s dream was for her only daughter to become a star, and Jennette would do anything to make her mother happy. So she went along with what Mom called “calorie restriction,” eating little and weighing herself five times a day. She endured extensive at-home makeovers while Mom chided, “Your eyelashes are invisible, okay? You think Dakota Fanning doesn’t tint hers?” She was even showered by Mom until age sixteen while sharing her diaries, email, and all her income. In I’m Glad My Mom Died , Jennette recounts all this in unflinching detail—just as she chronicles what happens when the dream finally comes true. Cast in a new Nickelodeon series called iCarly , she is thrust into fame. Though Mom is ecstatic, emailing fan club moderators and getting on a first-name basis with the paparazzi (“Hi Gale!”), Jennette is riddled with anxiety, shame, and self-loathing, which manifest into eating disorders, addiction, and a series of unhealthy relationships. These issues only get worse when, soon after taking the lead in the iCarly spinoff Sam & Cat alongside Ariana Grande, her mother dies of cancer. Finally, after discovering therapy and quitting acting, Jennette embarks on recovery and decides for the first time in her life what she really wants. Told with refreshing candor and dark humor, I’m Glad My Mom Died is an inspiring story of resilience, independence, and the joy of shampooing your own hair.

THE STORM IS COMING . . . Get ready to fly or die in the breathtaking follow-up to Fourth Wing and Iron Flame from #1 New York Times bestselling author Rebecca Yarros. After nearly eighteen months at Basgiath War College, Violet Sorrengail knows there’s no more time for lessons. No more time for uncertainty.

But a storm is coming... and not everyone can survive its wrath

Back in District 12, Haymitch Abernathy is trying not to think too hard about his chances. All he cares about is making it through the day and being with the girl he loves. When Haymitch’s name is called, he can feel all his dreams break.

As the Games begin, Haymitch understands he’s been set up to fail. But there’s something in him that wants to fight . . . and have that fight reverberate far beyond the deadly arena.
