The Way of Kings Part One: The first book of the breathtaking epic Stormlight Archive from the worldwide fantasy sensation
From #1 New York Times bestselling author and worldwide sensation Brandon Sanderson, The Way of Kings, Book One of the Stormlight Archive, begins an incredible new saga of epic proportion.
Roshar is a world of stone and storms. Uncanny tempests of incredible power sweep across the rocky terrain so frequently that they have shaped ecology and civilisation alike. Animals hide in shells, trees pull in branches, and grass retracts into the soil-less ground. Cities are built only where the topography offers shelter.
It has been centuries since the fall of the ten consecrated orders known as the Knights Radiant, but their Shardblades and Shardplate remain: mystical swords and suits of armour that transform ordinary men into near-invincible warriors. Men trade kingdoms for Shardblades. Wars were fought for them, and won by them.
Kaladin, who traded his medical apprenticeship for a spear to protect his little brother, has been reduced to slavery.
Brightlord Dalinar Kholin commands one of those other armies. Troubled by over-powering visions of ancient times and the Knights Radiant, he has begun to doubt his own sanity.
Across the ocean, an untried young woman named Shallan seeks to train under an eminent scholar and notorious heretic, Dalinar’s niece, Jasnah. Her research for Jasnah hints at secrets of the Knights Radiant and the true cause of the war.
The Knights Radiant must stand again.

Massacring his way to the top to become emperor of the cultivation world, Mo Ran’s cruel reign left him with little satisfaction. Now, upon suffering his greatest loss, he takes his own life… To his surprise, Mo Ran awakens in his own body at age sixteen, years before he ever began his bloody conquests. Now, as a novice disciple at the cultivation sect known as Sisheng Peak, Mo Ran has a second chance at life. This time, he vows that he will attain the gratification that eluded him in his last life: the overly righteous shall fall, and none will dare treat him like a dog ever again! His furious passion burns most fiercely for his shizun, Chu Wanning, the beautiful yet cold cultivation teacher who maintains a cat-like aloofness in his presence.

Bone to Pick (Sunday Brothers Book 5)
Never fall for your professor…
Especially when that professor is Theo Hancock, the man who failed you in your final semester, causing you to have to repeat a class in your millionth year of college when you’re already twenty-freaking-six years old…
Especially when the professor is the most stunning, eye-popping piece of perfection who ever walked on campus. So brilliant, his voice alone changed the course of your life. So gorgeous, students affectionately call him Dr. Hotco— Well, you get the idea.
And especially don’t fall for him so hard you show up at his house after midnight fueled with tequila and armed with a sense of justice, a frantic-mad sonnet, and a bone to pick with your professor.
Because you might just end up snowed in with him, his tiny cabin might just have one bed, and fate might have a new future in store for both of you.

Talented actress.
Stunning burlesque dancer.
Man-eater.
…My student.When she pulled me on stage during her burlesque routine at The Ruby Slipper, I had no way of knowing that the very next day she’d walk into my classroom.
After our one night together, I thought I’d never see her again. I was already causing quite a stir on my first day as the famous Broadway director turned professor… the last thing I needed was a scandal.
I wasn’t surprised by the raw desire I continued to feel for her. But I was surprised by the magnitude of her talent as an actress, singer, and dancer. When she auditioned for the lead in my new show, I had to admit… she was utterly perfect for the part.
She was my star.

101 Places to Have Sex Before You Die
You remember your first, you remember your worst, and you should definitely remember some special moments in between. But you should also have a few memories of places where you’ve enjoyed “sleeping” with your partner that doesn’t involve the same old place you wake up in every day. 101 PLACES TO HAVE SEX BEFORE YOU DIE provides readers with a list of real places where real people can have sex without too much difficulty (and it’ll always be worth the trouble). In some instances there will only be time to round one of the bases (think “Drive-thru”); other suggestions will allow you time to re-enact that entire beach scene from From Here to Eternity(perhaps on your neighbour’s kitchen floor).Each location in 101 PLACES TO HAVE SEX BEFORE YOU DIE will be accompanied by a box to check off once the reader has successfully completed the deed there, a place where they can mark whether or not they’d venture there again, and a “notes” section for commentary. In addition, helpful icons will indicate certain hazards or special considerations for each place (for instance, if there’s a chance you might get arrested, if there are time constraints, if there’s a risk of embarrassment, etc.).
Whether you’re feeling romantic, adventurous, sporty, lazy, or just plain naughty, this book is a must-have for anyone who enjoys a good romp in the hay (or in the reptile house at the zoo).

But perhaps worst of all, this is the last Christmas Mae will be at her favourite place in the world – the snowy cabin where she and her family have spent every holiday since she was born.

The next thing she knows, everything goes black . . . When Mae gasps awake, she’s back on an airplane, beginning the same holiday all over again. With one hilarious disaster after another sending her back to the plane, Mae must figure out how to break free of the strange time loop – and finally get her true love under the mistletoe.
