    For fans of Stephen King, Mark Edwards and The Haunting of Hill House comes a dark tale of a mysterious house haunted by tragedy.

    The Nightingale House is a new beginning for widower Daniel Price and his young daughter Caitlyn. After months of grief, this will be the place where they start their life as a family of two.

    But something is wrong—Daniel can’t settle. There’s an odd, cold feeling in the master bedroom, and a mysterious dripping noise that seems to move from room to room. Whispers of I can’t sleep echo through the corridors, long into the night.

    Nella Larsen's powerful, thrilling, and tragic tale about the fluidity of racial identity that continues to resonate today. A New York Times Editors’ Choice
     
    Clare Kendry is living on the edge. Light-skinned, elegant, and ambitious, she is married to a racist white man unaware of her African American heritage, and has severed all ties to her past after deciding to “pass” as a white woman. Clare’s childhood friend, Irene Redfield, just as light-skinned, has chosen to remain within the African American community, and is simultaneously allured and repelled by Clare’s risky decision to engage in racial masquerade for personal and societal gain. After frequenting African American-centric gatherings together in Harlem, Clare’s interest in Irene turns into a homoerotic longing for Irene’s black identity that she abandoned and can never embrace again, and she is forced to grapple with her decision to pass for white in a way that is both tragic and telling. This edition features a new introduction by Emily Bernard and notes by Thadious M. Davis.

    From journalist and historian Richard Kreitner, a "powerful revisionist account"of the most persistent idea in American history: these supposedly United States should be broken up (Eric Foner).

    The novel and fiery thesis of Break It Up is simple: The United States has never lived up to its name—and never will. The disunionist impulse may have found its greatest expression in the Civil War, but as Break It Up shows, the seduction of secession wasn’t limited to the South or the nineteenth century. It was there at our founding and has never gone away.
     
    With a scholar’s command and a journalist’s curiosity, Richard Kreitner takes readers on a revolutionary journey through American history, revealing the power and persistence of disunion movements in every era and region. Each New England town after Plymouth was a secession from another; the thirteen colonies viewed their Union as a means to the end of securing independence, not an end in itself; George Washington feared separatism west of the Alleghenies; Aaron Burr schemed to set up a new empire; John Quincy Adams brought a Massachusetts town’s petition for dissolving the United States to the floor of Congress; and abolitionist William Lloyd Garrison denounced the Constitution as a pro-slavery pact with the devil.
     
    From the “cold civil war” that pits partisans against one another to the modern secession movements in California and Texas, the divisions that threaten to tear America apart today have centuries-old roots in the earliest days of our Republic. Richly researched and persuasively argued, Break It Up will help readers make fresh sense of our fractured age.
     
    Former congressman and prosecutor Trey Gowdy teaches you how to effectively communicate and persuade on the issues that matter most to you, drawing on his experience in the courtroom and the halls of Congress.

    “A must-read for people who want to learn how best to succeed.”—Dana Perino, Fox News host and bestselling author of And the Good News Is . . .

    You do not need to be in a courtroom to advocate for others. You do not need to be in Congress to champion a cause. From the boardroom to the kitchen table, opportunities to make your case abound, and Doesn’t Hurt to Ask shows you how to seize them. By blending gripping case studies from nearly two decades in a courtroom and four terms in national politics with personal stories and practical advice, Trey Gowdy walks you through the tools and the mindset needed to effectively communicate your message.

    Along the way, Gowdy reflects on the moments in his life when he learned the most about how to argue and convince. He recounts his missteps during his first murder trial, the conversation that changed his view on criminal justice reform, and what he learned while questioning James Comey and Secretary Hillary Clinton.

    Sharing the techniques he perfected advocating in law and politics, Gowdy helps you identify your objective, understand your personal jury, and engage in the art of questioning so you can be heard, be understood, and, ultimately, move others. Whether it’s getting a boss to take a chance on your idea, convincing someone to support your cause, or urging a child to invest more effort in an important task, movement requires persuasion. Doesn’t Hurt to Ask shows you how to persuade, no matter the jury and no matter the cause.
    From the best-selling author of Skinny Dip and Razor Girl, a hilarious new novel of social and political intrigue, set against the glittering backdrop of Florida's gold coast.

    It's the height of the Palm Beach charity ball season: for every disease or cause, there's a reason for the local luminaries to eat (minimally), drink (maximally), and be seen. But when a prominent high-society dowager suddenly vanishes during a swank gala, and is later found dead in a concrete grave, panic and chaos erupt. Kiki Pew was notable not just for her wealth and her jewels--she was an ardent fan of the Winter White House resident just down the road, and a founding member of the POTUSSIES, a group of women dedicated to supporting their President. Never one to miss an opportunity to play to his base, the President immediately declares that Kiki was the victim of rampaging immigrant hordes. This, it turns out, is far from the truth.

    The truth might just lie in the middle of the highway, where a bizarre discovery brings the First Lady's motorcade to a grinding halt (followed by some grinding between the First Lady and a love-struck Secret Service agent). Enter Angie Armstrong, wildlife wrangler extraordinaire, who arrives at her own conclusions after she is summoned to the posh island to deal with a mysterious and impolite influx of huge, hungry pythons . . .

    Carl Hiaasen can brighten even the darkest of days and Squeeze Me is pure, unadulterated Hiaasen. Irreverent, ingenious, and highly entertaining, Squeeze Me perfectly captures the absurdity of our times.
    "I loved where Kadrey started with this series, but I love where he's going even more."-- NYT Bestselling author Cory Doctorow

    Sandman Slim is back in Los Angeles and kicking more supernatural ass in this inventive, high-octane page-turner—the next to last volume in the popular and acclaimed fantasy adventure series from New York Times bestselling author Richard Kadrey.

    As the battle between warring angels continues, James Stark is focused on seemingly simpler matters now that he’s resurfaced on earth: an invasion of ghosts. L.A.’s Little Cairo neighborhood has suddenly been overrun by violent spirits, and Thomas Abbott knows if anyone can figure out why they’ve appeared—and how to get rid of them—it’s Stark. 

    Armed with the Room of Thirteen Doors, Stark quickly learns that the answer may reach back to the 1970s and the unsolved murder of small-time actor, Chris Stein. As he begins to dig into the cold case, another area of Stark’s life takes an unexpected turn when he becomes entangled with Janet, a woman he saved during the High Plains Drifter zombie attack. 

    Janet’s brush with the living dead hasn’t quenched her thirst for danger. She’s an adrenaline junkie and a member of The Zero Lodge—a club that promises “there’s zero chance you’ll get out alive.” The Lodge attracts thrill seekers who flock to perilous events such as night walks through the LA Zoo—with its deadliest animals uncaged. Joining the lodge to be with Janet, Stark makes a pair of crucial discoveries that could decide the fate of LA and Heaven itself.

    To prevent the Little Cairo haunting from consuming the city, Stark must piece together the connections between the Lodge and a missing angel last seen in a Hollywood porn palace. But while he may dispatch the ghosts, Stark knows that without his help, the bloody war in Heaven could rage forever.

    “Sexy and satisfying, Big Summer is the perfect quarantine read.” —USA TODAY

    “The beach read to end all beach reads.” —Entertainment Weekly

    “Big fun, and then some. It’s empowering and surprising—a reminder to put down the phone and enjoy each moment for what it is.” —The Washington Post

    A deliciously funny, remarkably poignant, and simply unputdownable novel about the power of friendship, the lure of frenemies, and the importance of making peace with yourself through all life’s ups and down. From the #1 New York Times bestselling author of Good in Bed and Best Friends Forever, Big Summer is the perfect escape with one of the most lovable heroines to come to the page in years.

    Six years after the fight that ended their friendship, Daphne Berg is shocked when Drue Cavanaugh walks back into her life, looking as lovely and successful as ever, with a massive favor to ask. Daphne hasn’t spoken one word to Drue in all this time—she doesn’t even hate-follow her ex-best friend on social media—so when Drue asks if she will be her maid-of-honor at the society wedding of the summer, Daphne is rightfully speechless.

    Drue was always the one who had everything—except the ability to hold onto friends. Meanwhile, Daphne’s no longer the same self-effacing sidekick she was back in high school. She’s built a life that she loves, including a growing career as a plus-size Instagram influencer. Letting glamorous, seductive Drue back into her life is risky, but it comes with an invitation to spend a weekend in a waterfront Cape Cod mansion. When Drue begs and pleads and dangles the prospect of cute single guys, Daphne finds herself powerless as ever to resist her friend’s siren song.

    A sparkling novel about the complexities of female relationships, the pitfalls of living out loud and online, and the resilience of the human heart, Big Summer is a witty, moving story about family, friendship, and figuring out what matters most.

    No matter what you eat, how much you exercise, how skinny or young or wise you are, none of it matters if you’re not breathing properly.

    There is nothing more essential to our health and well-being than breathing: take air in, let it out, repeat 25,000 times a day. Yet, as a species, humans have lost the ability to breathe correctly, with grave consequences.

    Journalist James Nestor travels the world to figure out what went wrong and how to fix it. The answers aren’t found in pulmonology labs, as we might expect, but in the muddy digs of ancient burial sites, secret Soviet facilities, New Jersey choir schools, and the smoggy streets of São Paulo. Nestor tracks down men and women exploring the hidden science behind ancient breathing practices like Pranayama, Sudarshan Kriya, and Tummo and teams up with pulmonary tinkerers to scientifically test long-held beliefs about how we breathe.

    Modern research is showing us that making even slight adjustments to the way we inhale and exhale can jump-start athletic performance; rejuvenate internal organs; halt snoring, asthma, and autoimmune disease; and even straighten scoliotic spines. None of this should be possible, and yet it is.

    Drawing on thousands of years of medical texts and recent cutting-edge studies in pulmonology, psychology, biochemistry, and human physiology, Breath turns the conventional wisdom of what we thought we knew about our most basic biological function on its head. You will never breathe the same again.

    An unforgettable memoir about a young girl who, kept out of school, leaves her survivalist family and goes on to earn a PhD from Cambridge University

    Born to survivalists in the mountains of Idaho, Tara Westover was seventeen the first time she set foot in a classroom. Her family was so isolated from mainstream society that there was no one to ensure the children received an education, and no one to intervene when one of Tara’s older brothers became violent. When another brother got himself into college, Tara decided to try a new kind of life. Her quest for knowledge transformed her, taking her over oceans and across continents, to Harvard and to Cambridge University. Only then would she wonder if she’d traveled too far, if there was still a way home.

    “Beautiful and propulsive . . . Despite the singularity of [Tara Westover’s] childhood, the questions her book poses are universal: How much of ourselves should we give to those we love? And how much must we betray them to grow up?”—Vogue

    “Westover has somehow managed not only to capture her unsurpassably exceptional upbringing, but to make her current situation seem not so exceptional at all, and resonant for many others.”—The New York Times Book Review

    “An immensely charming and warmhearted book. It’s a vacation for the soul.”—Vox

    A warm, funny, and keenly perceptive novel about the life cycle of one family--as the kids become parents, grandchildren become teenagers, and a matriarch confronts the legacy of her mistakes. From the New York Times bestselling author of Modern Lovers and The Vacationers.


    When Astrid Strick witnesses a school bus accident in the center of town, it jostles loose a repressed memory from her young parenting days decades earlier. Suddenly, Astrid realizes she was not quite the parent she thought she'd been to her three, now-grown children. But to what consequence?

    Astrid's youngest son is drifting and unfocused, making parenting mistakes of his own. Her daughter is pregnant yet struggling to give up her own adolescence. And her eldest seems to measure his adult life according to standards no one else shares. But who gets to decide, so many years later, which long-ago lapses were the ones that mattered? Who decides which apologies really count? It might be that only Astrid's thirteen-year-old granddaughter and her new friend really understand the courage it takes to tell the truth to the people you love the most.

    In All Adults Here, Emma Straub's unique alchemy of wisdom, humor, and insight come together in a deeply satisfying story about adult siblings, aging parents, high school boyfriends, middle school mean girls, the lifelong effects of birth order, and all the other things that follow us into adulthood, whether we like them to or not.

    In a life filled with meaning and accomplishment, Michelle Obama has emerged as one of the most iconic and compelling women of our era. As First Lady of the United States of America—the first African American to serve in that role—she helped create the most welcoming and inclusive White House in history, while also establishing herself as a powerful advocate for women and girls in the U.S. and around the world, dramatically changing the ways that families pursue healthier and more active lives, and standing with her husband as he led America through some of its most harrowing moments. Along the way, she showed us a few dance moves, crushed Carpool Karaoke, and raised two down-to-earth daughters under an unforgiving media glare.
     
    In her memoir, a work of deep reflection and mesmerizing storytelling, Michelle Obama invites readers into her world, chronicling the experiences that have shaped her—from her childhood on the South Side of Chicago to her years as an executive balancing the demands of motherhood and work, to her time spent at the world’s most famous address. With unerring honesty and lively wit, she describes her triumphs and her disappointments, both public and private, telling her full story as she has lived it—in her own words and on her own terms. Warm, wise, and revelatory, Becoming is the deeply personal reckoning of a woman of soul and substance who has steadily defied expectations—and whose story inspires us to do the same.
    “In American icon John Grisham’s new novel, Camino Winds, an odd assortment of mystery and crime authors, some of them felons themselves, discover one of their colleagues has been murdered during the fury of a massive hurricane—the perfect crime scene. Since officials are preoccupied with the aftermath of the storm, the authors set out to solve the mystery themselves, in the type of wild but smart caper that Grisham’s readers love.” —Delia Owens, author of Where the Crawdads Sing  

    John Grisham, #1 bestselling author and master of the legal thriller, sweeps you away to paradise for a little sun, sand, mystery, and mayhem.
     
    With Camino Winds, America’s favorite storyteller offers the perfect escape.
     
    Welcome back to Camino Island, where anything can happen—even a murder in the midst of a hurricane, which might prove to be the perfect crime . . .
     
    Just as Bruce Cable’s Bay Books is preparing for the return of bestselling author Mercer Mann, Hurricane Leo veers from its predicted course and heads straight for the island. Florida’s governor orders a mandatory evacuation, and most residents board up their houses and flee to the mainland, but Bruce decides to stay and ride out the storm.
     
    The hurricane is devastating: homes and condos are leveled, hotels and storefronts ruined, streets flooded, and a dozen people lose their lives. One of the apparent victims is Nelson Kerr, a friend of Bruce’s and an author of thrillers. But the nature of Nelson’s injuries suggests that the storm wasn’t the cause of his death: He has suffered several suspicious blows to the head.
     
    Who would want Nelson dead? The local police are overwhelmed in the aftermath of the storm and ill equipped to handle the case. Bruce begins to wonder if the shady characters in Nelson’s novels might be more real than fictional. And somewhere on Nelson’s computer is the manuscript of his new novel. Could the key to the case be right there—in black and white? As Bruce starts to investigate, what he discovers between the lines is more shocking than any of Nelson’s plot twists—and far more dangerous. 
     
    Camino Winds is an irresistible romp and a perfectly thrilling beach read—# 1 bestselling author John Grisham at his beguiling best.

Neither side has gained an advantage, and the threat of a betrayal by Dalinar’s crafty ally Taravangian looms over every strategic move.

    Now, as new technological discoveries by Navani Kholin’s scholars begin to change the face of the war, the enemy prepares a bold and dangerous operation. The arms race that follows will challenge the very core of the Radiant ideals, and potentially reveal the secrets of the ancient tower that was once the heart of their strength.

    At the same time that Kaladin Stormblessed must come to grips with his changing role within the Knights Radiant, his Windrunners face their own problem: As more and more deadly enemy Fused awaken to wage war, no more honorspren are willing to bond with humans to increase the number of Radiants. Adolin and Shallan must lead the coalition’s envoy to the honorspren stronghold of Lasting Integrity and either convince the spren to join the cause against the evil god Odium, or personally face the storm of failure.

    An unprecedented and intimate tour de force of original reporting on the Trump presidency from Bob Woodward.

    Rage goes behind the scenes like never before, with stunning new details about early national security decisions and operations and Trump’s moves as he faces a global pandemic, economic disaster and racial unrest.

    Woodward, the #1 internationally bestselling author of 13 #1 bestsellers, including Fear: Trump in the White House, shows Trump up close in his entirety before the 2020 presidential election.

    President Trump has said publicly that Woodward has interviewed him. What is not known is that Trump provided Woodward a window into his mind through a series of exclusive interviews.

    At key decision points, Rage shows how Trump’s responses to the crises of 2020 were rooted in the instincts, habits and style he developed during his first three years as president.

    Rage draws from hundreds of hours of interviews with firsthand witnesses, as well as participants’ notes, emails, diaries, calendars and confidential documents.

    Woodward obtained 25 personal letters exchanged between Trump and North Korean leader Kim Jong Un that have not been public before. Kim describes the bond between the two leaders as out of a “fantasy film,” as the two leaders engage in an extraordinary diplomatic minuet.

    Rage will be the foundational account of the Trump presidency, its turmoil, contradictions and risks. It is an essential document for any voter seeking an accurate inside view of the Trump years—volatile and vivid.
    The Shadowhunters must catch a killer in Edwardian London in this dangerous and romantic sequel to the #1 New York Times bestselling novel Chain of Gold, from New York Times and USA TODAY bestselling author Cassandra Clare. Chain of Iron is a Shadowhunters novel.

    Cordelia Carstairs seems to have everything she ever wanted. She’s engaged to marry James Herondale, the boy she has loved since childhood. She has a new life in London with her best friend Lucie Herondale and James’s charming companions, the Merry Thieves. She is about to be reunited with her beloved father. And she bears the sword Cortana, a legendary hero’s blade.

    But the truth is far grimmer. James and Cordelia’s marriage is a lie, arranged to save Cordelia’s reputation. James is in love with the mysterious Grace Blackthorn whose brother, Jesse, died years ago in a terrible accident. Cortana burns Cordelia’s hand when she touches it, while her father has grown bitter and angry. And a serial murderer is targeting the Shadowhunters of London, killing under cover of darkness, then vanishing without a trace.

    Together with the Merry Thieves, Cordelia, James, and Lucie must follow the trail of the knife-wielding killer through the city’s most dangerous streets. All the while, each is keeping a shocking secret: Lucie, that she plans to raise Jesse from the dead; Cordelia, that she has sworn a dangerous oath of loyalty to a mysterious power; and James, that he is being drawn further each night into the dark web of his grandfather, the arch-demon Belial. And that he himself may be the killer they seek.

    In this compelling, emotionally complex novel, a college friendship sparks a life-changing sacrifice that connects two women forever--even as it shatters their closeness . . .

    “Let her go. I’ll stay.”

    There are some decisions you can never unmake. You can only atone for them—or try to. During her senior year of college, Clare Michaels takes a spring break trip to Florida with three other girls, including her best friend, Lee. She’s hoping for adventure and a few stories to share back at school. Instead, a string of bad choices leads to a horrific encounter, and Lee offers herself up so that Clare can escape.

    In the weeks and months that follow that fateful incident, Lee, once so dynamic and ambitious, flounders and withdraws. Clare was the only person to whom she’d ever confided about her troubled past. For Clare, that role felt like an honor—until it became a burden. Now she’s trying to make amends for her momentary selfishness by taking care of Lee—just as she’s been taking care of her high-strung mother, whose bestselling novel has been both windfall and curse. Years pass, circumstances change, and contact between Clare and Lee ebbs and flows, but the events of that night in Florida are impossible to escape. They keep dragging Clare back—forcing her to confront what really happened, and her part in it, in hopes of untangling guilt from loyalty and earning forgiveness at last . . .

    “I'll Stay is a heart-pounding, addictive portrait of how one split-second choice can twist our whole lives—and how the patterns of our lives lead us to those choices. A smart, compassionate, psychological spellbinder of a book—with one of the scariest scenes you'll read anywhere that'll stay with you forever!”
    --Jenna Blum, New York Times bestselling author of Those Who Save Us and The Stormchasers
    A renowned Harvard professor debunks prevailing orthodoxy with a new intellectual foundation and a practical pathway forward for a system that has lost its moral and ethical foundation in this "powerful" book (Daron Acemoglu).
    Free market capitalism is one of humanity's greatest inventions and the greatest source of prosperity the world has ever seen. But this success has been costly. Capitalism is on the verge of destroying the planet and destabilizing society as wealth rushes to the top. The time for action is running short.

    Rebecca Henderson's rigorous research in economics, psychology, and organizational behavior, as well as her many years of work with companies around the world, gives us a path forward. She debunks the worldview that the only purpose of business is to make money and maximize shareholder value. She shows that we have failed to reimagine capitalism so that it is not only an engine of prosperity but also a system that is in harmony with environmental realities, striving for social justice and the demands of truly democratic institutions.

    Henderson's deep understanding of how change takes place, combined with fascinating in-depth stories of companies that have made the first steps towards reimagining capitalism, provides inspiring insight into what capitalism can be. With rich discussions of how the worlds of finance, governance, and leadership must also evolve, Henderson provides the pragmatic foundation for navigating a world faced with unprecedented challenge, but also with extraordinary opportunity for those who can get it right.
    Justice is music to the Sisterhood’s ears as they delve into the dark side of celebrity—from the #1 New York Times bestselling author of Crash and Burn.

    Through all their missions and adventures, the tightknit group of friends who make up the Sisterhood have learned one vital lesson: everybody has a weak spot. In the case of Yoko Wong’s dear friend Garland Lee, the multimillion-selling performer known as America’s beloved songbird, that weak spot was trusting her lawyer, Arthur Forrester. For years, he’s taken advantage of her faith in him to amass a secret fortune. And now, in the deepest betrayal yet, he’s dragged her into a lawsuit that could cost her everything. 
     
    The Sisterhood know they can’t let that happen. Forrester has some of the country’s top judges in his pocket, and a list of influential and ruthless friends—not to mention knowledge of all the ways the law can be corrupted to work in his favor. But he doesn’t have the Vigilantes’ deep-seated loyalty and determination. And all his years of underhanded dealings won’t prepare him for the type of creative payback that the Sisters have made their specialty . . .

    A NEW YORK TIMES 100 NOTABLE BOOKS OF 2019 SELECTION

    From #1 New York Times bestselling author Stephen King, the most riveting and unforgettable story of kids confronting evil since It.

    In the middle of the night, in a house on a quiet street in suburban Minneapolis, intruders silently murder Luke Ellis’s parents and load him into a black SUV. The operation takes less than two minutes. Luke will wake up at The Institute, in a room that looks just like his own, except there’s no window. And outside his door are other doors, behind which are other kids with special talents—telekinesis and telepathy—who got to this place the same way Luke did: Kalisha, Nick, George, Iris, and ten-year-old Avery Dixon. They are all in Front Half. Others, Luke learns, graduated to Back Half, “like the roach motel,” Kalisha says. “You check in, but you don’t check out.”

    In this most sinister of institutions, the director, Mrs. Sigsby, and her staff are ruthlessly dedicated to extracting from these children the force of their extranormal gifts. There are no scruples here. If you go along, you get tokens for the vending machines. If you don’t, punishment is brutal. As each new victim disappears to Back Half, Luke becomes more and more desperate to get out and get help. But no one has ever escaped from the Institute.

    As psychically terrifying as Firestarter, and with the spectacular kid power of It, The Institute is Stephen King’s gut-wrenchingly dramatic story of good vs. evil in a world where the good guys don’t always win.
    #1 New York Times Bestseller

    Over 1 million copies sold

    In this generation-defining self-help guide, a superstar blogger cuts through the crap to show us how to stop trying to be "positive" all the time so that we can truly become better, happier people.

    For decades, we’ve been told that positive thinking is the key to a happy, rich life. "F**k positivity," Mark Manson says. "Let’s be honest, shit is f**ked and we have to live with it." In his wildly popular Internet blog, Manson doesn’t sugarcoat or equivocate. He tells it like it is—a dose of raw, refreshing, honest truth that is sorely lacking today. The Subtle Art of Not Giving a F**k is his antidote to the coddling, let’s-all-feel-good mindset that has infected American society and spoiled a generation, rewarding them with gold medals just for showing up.

    Manson makes the argument, backed both by academic research and well-timed poop jokes, that improving our lives hinges not on our ability to turn lemons into lemonade, but on learning to stomach lemons better. Human beings are flawed and limited—"not everybody can be extraordinary, there are winners and losers in society, and some of it is not fair or your fault." Manson advises us to get to know our limitations and accept them. Once we embrace our fears, faults, and uncertainties, once we stop running and avoiding and start confronting painful truths, we can begin to find the courage, perseverance, honesty, responsibility, curiosity, and forgiveness we seek.

    There are only so many things we can give a f**k about so we need to figure out which ones really matter, Manson makes clear. While money is nice, caring about what you do with your life is better, because true wealth is about experience. A much-needed grab-you-by-the-shoulders-and-look-you-in-the-eye moment of real-talk, filled with entertaining stories and profane, ruthless humor, The Subtle Art of Not Giving a F**k is a refreshing slap for a generation to help them lead contented, grounded lives.

    NOW THE ACCLAIMED HBO SERIES GAME OF THRONES—THE MASTERPIECE THAT BECAME A CULTURAL PHENOMENON
     
    Winter is coming. Such is the stern motto of House Stark, the northernmost of the fiefdoms that owe allegiance to King Robert Baratheon in far-off King’s Landing. There Eddard Stark of Winterfell rules in Robert’s name. There his family dwells in peace and comfort: his proud wife, Catelyn; his sons Robb, Brandon, and Rickon; his daughters Sansa and Arya; and his bastard son, Jon Snow. Far to the north, behind the towering Wall, lie savage Wildings and worse—unnatural things relegated to myth during the centuries-long summer, but proving all too real and all too deadly in the turning of the season.
     
    Yet a more immediate threat lurks to the south, where Jon Arryn, the Hand of the King, has died under mysterious circumstances. Now Robert is riding north to Winterfell, bringing his queen, the lovely but cold Cersei, his son, the cruel, vainglorious Prince Joffrey, and the queen’s brothers Jaime and Tyrion of the powerful and wealthy House Lannister—the first a swordsman without equal, the second a dwarf whose stunted stature belies a brilliant mind. All are heading for Winterfell and a fateful encounter that will change the course of kingdoms.
     
    Meanwhile, across the Narrow Sea, Prince Viserys, heir of the fallen House Targaryen, which once ruled all of Westeros, schemes to reclaim the throne with an army of barbarian Dothraki—whose loyalty he will purchase in the only coin left to him: his beautiful yet innocent sister, Daenerys.

    SKimmy、吳曉樂、海苔熊、黃大米、葉揚、歐陽立中──真摯推薦

     

    「從未談過戀愛的我,真的很想和他說句話……」

    「家人為我鋪排的路,和我想要的不同……」

    「看不慣那些逢迎的人,但理想與現實好像難以平衡……」

    「被過去的失誤與內疚感糾纏,我該如何是好?」

     

    ▎ 歡迎走進,解憂電影院

    在這裡,你並不孤單 ▎

     

    ● 用一部電影的故事,伴你走過生命長路,走向希望


    《解憂電影院》是水ㄤ與水某歷時數年的沉靜慢思之作,回到「那些電影教我的事」的初衷,用一部電影故事,細細琢磨對人生疑問最深刻的體悟。來到這間「解憂電影院」,寫上片名與時間的「電影票」,就如不同科系與課別;談一段感情,彷若「走進影廳」般的親身體驗;我們還可從「幕前幕後」看工作事業的一體兩面;從「演員」理解人際關係的課題;最後甚至透過「劇本」故事,回應自我的叩問。

     

    ● 用一部電影的時間,讓我們的心都休息一下


    除了替讀者「解憂」,本書亦涵括了水ㄤ與水某在不同時刻,各自擱在心上的生命課題。無論是青春時期的遠距徬徨、共同事業的內心拉扯,還有從相戀到婚後的溝通磨合,在這本書中,兩人各自鼓起勇氣向對方提問,也回覆對方的來信。最深刻的生命告白,最動人的銀幕絮語,透過書寫寄情,豐富了彼此的人生。

     

    ● 給你我的人生片單,水ㄤ、水某如是說


    關於求學低潮,我們推薦《志氣》這部電影。對於熱愛的事絕不要輕言放棄,堅持或許會痛,但更痛的是後悔。


    經歷戀愛中的苦澀,讓我們想到《誰先愛上他的》。或許面對事實,就是說服你的心去接受那些你早已經知道的事。


    當陷入選擇僵局,或許可以看看《玩具總動員4》。不用急著說自己別無選擇;希望,或許就在轉角處等著。


    當被標籤、無法符合他人期待時,《小丑》這部電影告訴我們:不是每個遊蕩的人都迷了路,或許他正在追逐一個你無法想像的夢。


    你並不需要完全模仿誰或成為別人,《寄生上流》讓我們寫下:當你羨慕時,他的總是比較好;當你珍惜時,你的就是最好的。

     

    面臨不知如何是好的選擇、尷尬到想逃離的處境,或當情緒浪潮來襲之時,打開這本《解憂電影院》,總有一部電影、一封信能夠了解你,伴你走過漫漫長路,走向有光的地方。


    真摯推薦

    「都什麼年代了,還在5W1H?」
    在各種思考法層出不窮的現代,
    最經典又最簡單的5W1H,才是最強的思考武器!

    ?明明學了很多思考法,卻無法適當地活用。
    ?對所有事情都太過鑽牛角尖,常常被說「視野太狹隘」「多看看大局」「不要忘了目的是什麼」。
    ?不擅長鎖定核心問題或解決問題的根本。
    ?提不出有說服力的策略計畫。
    ?即使有點子,也常被批評「數量太少」「太普通」。

    如果你有以上困擾,想提高生產力或工作表現,最簡單又最強大的思考法就是5W1H。

    這本書讓我重新發現5W1H能解決最本質的問題,是最強的思考武器。

      正確的理財投資觀念:
      ◎理財的基礎,其實是一個人的「信用」問題。
      ◎投資時永遠要記住兩條準則:第一,不能虧錢,第二,永遠不能忘記第一條準則。
      ◎口袋現金不足的現代新窮人,人生中「不必要」的支出就是利息負擔。
      ◎投資理財是一件專責、專業的金錢管理流程,要懂得設立一個「資產管理帳戶」,專注做好財務管理事宜。
      ◎理財的致富方程式,就是:本金×穩定報酬率×時間=財富!
      ◎風險並不可怕,可怕的應該是我們對投資工具或商品的不理解。
      ◎掌握變現性原則,就掌握了理財致富的關鍵密碼。
      ◎當我們整個人生的財務風險都鎖住了以後,就可以積極來衝刺高風險,但也是高報酬的投資工具!
      ◎從「變現性」來考量,我們第一個該瞄準的理財市場,其實應該是「就業市場」。
      ◎一個不穩定的報酬率,不如一個年年保持穩定的低報酬率!
      ◎負債,又不理債,基本上就是一個理財角度上的窮人。

      ★《紐約時報》第一名的作者 羅勃特.T.清崎 最新力作,強調「知識就是金錢」(Knowledge is Money.),教導我們真正的財務教育。

      ★來自富爸爸清崎最嚴厲的警告:下一波金融危機,是一場「走在金錢鋼索上的全民共罪」!

      來自助學貸款引發的倒帳、風險……,繼而掀起的稅賦、債務……等連鎖效應,千萬別認為它和你沒關係,這場危機和每一個人都密不可分。

      ★長踞美國《商業週刊》、《紐約時報》暢銷排行榜至今。

      ★富爸爸公司首席口譯 王立天,用最貼近清崎口吻捕捉最真實的金錢奧義。


      未來十年,是失落的十年,同時也是賺錢的十年。

      看過那麼多次的財富重分配,這次換你幫自己的財富把關。


      當今全球資金到處氾濫,未來的日子都會是這樣的局面。數兆美元在找尋投資標的,這是因為全球政府不斷地在發行金額上兆的假鈔票。打敗這些央行們的最佳辦法,就是印製自己真正的鈔票。多年來,我一直在印製屬於自己的真正鈔票──完全合法、合乎倫理道德,同時還受到政府的祝福與幫助。


      我的富爸爸經常說:「你的腦袋是自己最重要的一項資產。你的腦袋也可能是你這一輩子最大的負債。」我寫這本書的目的是,希望能讓你把自己的腦袋轉化成這一輩子最偉大的一項資產,讓你因此獲得不公平競爭優勢。


      你可以跟正宗富爸爸羅勃特.清崎一樣,甚至做同樣的事情,但你必須先投資在自己的財務教育上──因為唯有靠著自己的財務教育,才是獲得無限大投資報酬率的不公平競爭優勢。


      本書為你說明五大不公平競爭優勢,以及每一章節都有專文撰寫讀者們對金錢的模糊自白,搭配清崎和富爸爸公司團隊最完整的解答。勇敢讓自己挑受不公平競爭優勢吧,也讓自己學會這些不公平競爭優勢,你將離財富自由愈來愈接近。


    這些不公平競爭優勢你一直都有,只是你自己不自覺罷了,趁著失落十年,趕緊學習還來得及。而這些不公平競爭優勢,分別是:

      ☆不公平金錢優勢#1:知識
      ☆不公平金錢優勢#2:稅賦
      ☆不公平金錢優勢#3:債務
      ☆不公平金錢優勢#4:風險
      ☆不公平金錢優勢#5:補助

      許多人「知道」成功取決於90%的好習慣,
      只是往往想做卻「做不到」,
      事實上,養成好習慣的關鍵不在意志力,
      而在某些隱形的開關!

      ★ 日本唯一「習慣養成」顧問
      ★ 針對培養好習慣會遇到的問題,一一詳細破解
      ★ 從行動、思考、感受、環境四大層面,提供65個無痛養成習慣的開關

      如果你有以下煩惱,必讀本書:
      .好習慣無法持續,壞習慣戒不掉
      .容易負面思考
      .心煩意亂,沒有充實感
      .一年前就開始沒成長

      好習慣可以提升效率、改善健康,讓自己過上理想生活,這毋庸置疑,
      但培養好習慣會遇到的實際狀況總是三分鐘熱度,
      因為多數人培養好習慣的策略是靠意念和毅力,
      這樣反而讓培養好習慣變成一件苦差事,更是力不從心。

      日本暢銷作家、習慣養成顧問古川武士認為,
      「無法持之以恆」是人生最大的課題,
      因此從2006年開始,他致力於開發獨創的習慣養成理論和技術。

      經過十多年的研究與實驗,
      他發現,養成好習慣的成效不彰,通常只把焦點放在表面的行為上,
      若想順利養成好習慣,必須利用冰山模型,從不同的層面著手──

      ◎ 26個【行動】開關:克服拖延和三分鐘熱度
      「無法持續學習英文」、「無法早起」、「戒不了酒」等問題,
      可以從小小的行動開始,透過設定行動習慣的技巧來解決。

      .總之,先做做看,或先放棄看看
      .就讓自己「一心二用」:善用通勤、步行、等候、吃飯、洗澡時間……
      .以15分鐘為單位來分段進行

      ◎ 18個【思考】開關:妨礙習慣養成的關鍵瓶頸
      對於事物的想法或看法,是人們無意識一再重複的思考習慣。
      完美主義者,在行動時會想要拿滿分,因而不想行動或變遲緩,
      只要鬆動完美主義的想法,就能動起來。

      .採取「改善1%」的行動來達到最優化
      .先預設一段失望期
      .利用口頭禪讓自己有拚勁

      ◎ 15個【感受】開關:開心、信念、欲望是習慣養成的原動力
      負面的信念會讓我們停止行動,
      只要把任何情緒轉化為積極正向,就能激發最底層的行動。

      .不要被他人的評價牽著鼻子走
      .允許自己有做不到的時候
      .從過去的成功經驗打造有力的信念

      ◎ 6個【環境】開關:避免停滯,踏入持續成長的「變化領域」
      我們總是希望能維持「安全、安心、安定」,抗拒新變化,
      如果覺得一成不變,想成長,就必須改變朋友和環境,才是有效手段。

      .找個讓自己憧憬、可以做為模範的人
      .提升自己覺察機會的敏感度
      .獲取最佳反饋意見

      本書從行動、思考、感受、環境四大領域,
      提供65個輕易上手的習慣養成開關,教你無痛養成好習慣,
      不需要全部都實踐才能成功,就像閱讀大全或吃自助餐一樣,
      只要挑選適合自己的方法養成好習慣,打造理想人生,預約更好的自己!

      股海老牛推薦,20檔最佳抱緊股,讓你穩穩賺100%。

      2018年,
      臺灣股市全年共跌掉915點,股民平均賠近25萬,
      但股海老牛卻低檔搶進股王大立光(3008)、製鞋三雄之一豐泰(9910),
      加上長期投資的金融股,讓他賺股利也賺價差。
      當其他股民虧得哀鴻遍野時,他每支股票的年報酬率都超過一倍以上!

      怎麼辦到?很簡單,他掌握「抱緊處理」四原則,
      找到能獲利一輩子的「抱緊股」,然後狠狠抱緊。
        
      抱:挑到好公司就要一直抱著。
      緊:以好價格買進才抱得緊。
      處:上下震盪能處變不驚,不敗在情緒。
      理:理智配置投資組合,順勢加減碼。

      作者股海老牛是痞客邦百萬財經部落客,曾創下單日5萬人造訪次數。
      他也是商周財富網、Smart自學網、Smart台股戰情室等專欄作家。
     
      從事股市投資多年的他,最初也自豪於自己的當沖技術,沉浸於天天獲利的喜悅,
      但長久下來卻發現,衝的越多賠越多,不斷放空,只會讓自己的口袋也空空。
      於是他決定改變投資方法,研究出股海老牛的「抱、緊、處、理」心法,
      自此每年都可以穩穩獲利100%!
     
      ◎「抱」:挑到好公司就要一直抱著
      好公司怎麼找?別人看每股盈餘,他說營益率才是關鍵。
      多數人只看「現金流」,股海老牛更重視「自由現金流」,兩者差別在哪裡?
      他更整理出找到隱形冠軍的十大指標,幫你篩選出最值得抱緊的五大台股。
      (原來某檔股票小編也有,小編決定抱緊處理!)
     
      ◎「緊」:以好價格買進,你才抱得緊
      這檔股票該用多少錢買,才是好價格?四大估價方法幫你分析出:
      一支股票何時進場最便宜、未來成長力道如何、股利可以給到多少。
      股海老牛用超豐(2441)、中租(5871)、智邦(2345)三檔股票親自算給你看。
           
      ◎「處」:上下震盪能處變不驚,不敗在情緒
      真正害你賠錢的,不是大盤的漲跌,而是你的情緒。
      哪些情緒老是在關鍵時刻偷走你的積蓄?
      股海老牛用10個字告訴你。
     
      ◎「理」:理智配置投資組合,順勢加減碼
      持股應分兩大類:
      1. 核心持股(能持續發股利的大型股)。
      2. 衛星配置(成長型的中小型股)。
      股市新手怎麼配?老手又該怎麼配?萬一股災來臨,該如何調整?
           
      巴菲特曾說:「我最喜歡的持股時間是 ──永遠。」
      所以,找到好股票,你唯一要做的就是,伺機抱緊處理!

    只有當你也在意我時,你才會被我的情緒寄生。

    超越「情緒陰影」──接住情緒,就接住了自己。

     

    我們看待這個世界的眼光,都是我們心裡情緒基調的投射。

    剪掉寄生,給「愛」搭配上一個最適當的距離。

    我們生來都是孤獨的人,為了抵抗這個孤獨,有些人選擇否認,有些人選擇寄生,希望被聽見而武裝,渴望被照顧而自傷,如此矛盾又糾結的執迷,只是想要在種種的防衛當中,找到一點點的喘息。

    有時我們將情緒附著在自己心上,有時又將情緒放到了別人身上。其實每個情緒、每個行為背後,都有獨特的意義,連結自己內心專屬的故事情節。唯有透過內在自我覺察與外在相互理解的可能性,才能在明知情緒存在的狀態下,還能做出貼近自己內心的選擇。

    四大主軸:

    ☆情緒,解讀世界的方式(情緒投射的特性)

    ☆情緒,在人我之間(情緒如何影響人我關係)

    ☆情緒,一個好不容易生存下來的我自己(情緒如何在自我身上運作)

    ☆情緒,感受並持續活著(超越情緒的方法)

    34則作者深層的自我揭露與臨床案例,剖析34種「情緒寄生」的效應,只有勇敢地把這些寄生情緒從你心裡剪掉,你的內在才會讓出空間,接受生命中新的美好!

     

    【本書特色】

    ◇更貼近華人文化的,或許不是「情緒勒索」這個名詞,而是「情緒寄生」的現象──勒索是有意識的、一種帶有權力的逼迫;而寄生是無意識的,因為那些會將情緒投到別人身上的,往往不是真正有權力的強者,而是曾經也受壓迫的弱者。

     

    ◇以「精神分析心理學」為核心──作者以13年鑽研精神分析心理學累積的心得,融合前人的理論、近代的研究,以及自己的臨床工作經驗,融會為34個情緒「效應」,含括的理論有:佛洛伊德(投射、心理防衛、壓抑、合理化作用、伊底帕斯情結)、克萊恩(心理定格、心理分裂)、拉岡(鏡像階段)、溫尼考特(無情的愛、不表達的表達、真我退化、呼喊理論)、哈特曼(分化能力)、瓊斯(強迫性重複)、沙利文(共同生存原理)、寇哈特(自戀)、羅吉斯(現象學),以及認知發展學派皮亞傑(自我中心)、阿德勒(自卑)、完形心理學(未竟事務理論)等。

     

    ◇擺脫情緒困境的實用原則──如「當你成為情緒寄生的宿主,8個你應該知道的事?」、「親密關係中最決絕的8句話?」、「面對父母,8件不要做的事?」、「重建安全感,可以做的8件事?」。

     

    人的心中彷彿一直有一片荒蕪的夜地,

    留給那個幽暗又寂寞的自我。──佛洛伊德

    AN INSTANT NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER
    LOS ANGELES TIMES BESTSELLER
    NATIONAL INDIE BESTSELLER

    "So delicious that it feels illicit . . . Raven Leilani’s first novel reads like summer: sentences like ice that crackle or melt into a languorous drip; plot suddenly, wildly flying forward like a bike down a hill." —Jazmine Hughes, The New York Times Book Review

    “An irreverent intergenerational tale of race and class that’s blisteringly smart and fan-yourself sexy.” —Michelle Hart, O: The Oprah Magazine

    No one wants what no one wants.
    And how do we even know what we want? How do we know we’re ready to take it?

    Edie is stumbling her way through her twenties—sharing a subpar apartment in Bushwick, clocking in and out of her admin job, making a series of inappropriate sexual choices. She is also haltingly, fitfully giving heat and air to the art that simmers inside her. And then she meets Eric, a digital archivist with a family in New Jersey, including an autopsist wife who has agreed to an open marriage—with rules.

    As if navigating the constantly shifting landscapes of contemporary sexual manners and racial politics weren’t hard enough, Edie finds herself unemployed and invited into Eric’s home—though not by Eric. She becomes a hesitant ally to his wife and a de facto role model to his adopted daughter. Edie may be the only Black woman young Akila knows.

    Irresistibly unruly and strikingly beautiful, razor-sharp and slyly comic, sexually charged and utterly absorbing, Raven Leilani’s Luster is a portrait of a young woman trying to make sense of her life—her hunger, her anger—in a tumultuous era. It is also a haunting, aching description of how hard it is to believe in your own talent, and the unexpected influences that bring us into ourselves along the way.
    A NEW YORK TIMES 100 NOTABLE BOOKS OF 2019 SELECTION

    From #1 New York Times bestselling author Stephen King, the most riveting and unforgettable story of kids confronting evil since It.

    In the middle of the night, in a house on a quiet street in suburban Minneapolis, intruders silently murder Luke Ellis’s parents and load him into a black SUV. The operation takes less than two minutes. Luke will wake up at The Institute, in a room that looks just like his own, except there’s no window. And outside his door are other doors, behind which are other kids with special talents—telekinesis and telepathy—who got to this place the same way Luke did: Kalisha, Nick, George, Iris, and ten-year-old Avery Dixon. They are all in Front Half. Others, Luke learns, graduated to Back Half, “like the roach motel,” Kalisha says. “You check in, but you don’t check out.”

    In this most sinister of institutions, the director, Mrs. Sigsby, and her staff are ruthlessly dedicated to extracting from these children the force of their extranormal gifts. There are no scruples here. If you go along, you get tokens for the vending machines. If you don’t, punishment is brutal. As each new victim disappears to Back Half, Luke becomes more and more desperate to get out and get help. But no one has ever escaped from the Institute.

    As psychically terrifying as Firestarter, and with the spectacular kid power of It, The Institute is Stephen King’s gut-wrenchingly dramatic story of good vs. evil in a world where the good guys don’t always win.
    #1 New York Times Bestseller

    Over 1 million copies sold

    In this generation-defining self-help guide, a superstar blogger cuts through the crap to show us how to stop trying to be "positive" all the time so that we can truly become better, happier people.

    For decades, we’ve been told that positive thinking is the key to a happy, rich life. "F**k positivity," Mark Manson says. "Let’s be honest, shit is f**ked and we have to live with it." In his wildly popular Internet blog, Manson doesn’t sugarcoat or equivocate. He tells it like it is—a dose of raw, refreshing, honest truth that is sorely lacking today. The Subtle Art of Not Giving a F**k is his antidote to the coddling, let’s-all-feel-good mindset that has infected American society and spoiled a generation, rewarding them with gold medals just for showing up.

    Manson makes the argument, backed both by academic research and well-timed poop jokes, that improving our lives hinges not on our ability to turn lemons into lemonade, but on learning to stomach lemons better. Human beings are flawed and limited—"not everybody can be extraordinary, there are winners and losers in society, and some of it is not fair or your fault." Manson advises us to get to know our limitations and accept them. Once we embrace our fears, faults, and uncertainties, once we stop running and avoiding and start confronting painful truths, we can begin to find the courage, perseverance, honesty, responsibility, curiosity, and forgiveness we seek.

    There are only so many things we can give a f**k about so we need to figure out which ones really matter, Manson makes clear. While money is nice, caring about what you do with your life is better, because true wealth is about experience. A much-needed grab-you-by-the-shoulders-and-look-you-in-the-eye moment of real-talk, filled with entertaining stories and profane, ruthless humor, The Subtle Art of Not Giving a F**k is a refreshing slap for a generation to help them lead contented, grounded lives.

    The instant New York Times Bestseller (January 2018)!

    Assume nothing.

    NOW THE ACCLAIMED HBO SERIES GAME OF THRONES—THE MASTERPIECE THAT BECAME A CULTURAL PHENOMENON
     
    Winter is coming. Such is the stern motto of House Stark, the northernmost of the fiefdoms that owe allegiance to King Robert Baratheon in far-off King’s Landing. There Eddard Stark of Winterfell rules in Robert’s name. There his family dwells in peace and comfort: his proud wife, Catelyn; his sons Robb, Brandon, and Rickon; his daughters Sansa and Arya; and his bastard son, Jon Snow. Far to the north, behind the towering Wall, lie savage Wildings and worse—unnatural things relegated to myth during the centuries-long summer, but proving all too real and all too deadly in the turning of the season.
     
    Yet a more immediate threat lurks to the south, where Jon Arryn, the Hand of the King, has died under mysterious circumstances. Now Robert is riding north to Winterfell, bringing his queen, the lovely but cold Cersei, his son, the cruel, vainglorious Prince Joffrey, and the queen’s brothers Jaime and Tyrion of the powerful and wealthy House Lannister—the first a swordsman without equal, the second a dwarf whose stunted stature belies a brilliant mind. All are heading for Winterfell and a fateful encounter that will change the course of kingdoms.
     
    Meanwhile, across the Narrow Sea, Prince Viserys, heir of the fallen House Targaryen, which once ruled all of Westeros, schemes to reclaim the throne with an army of barbarian Dothraki—whose loyalty he will purchase in the only coin left to him: his beautiful yet innocent sister, Daenerys.
