All Magnus Bane wanted was a vacation—a lavish trip across Europe with Alec Lightwood, the Shadowhunter who against all odds is finally his boyfriend. But as soon as the pair settles in Paris, an old friend arrives with news about a demon-worshipping cult called the Crimson Hand that is bent on causing chaos around the world. A cult that was apparently founded by Magnus himself. Years ago. As a joke.
Now Magnus and Alec must race across Europe to track down the Crimson Hand and its elusive new leader before the cult can cause any more damage. As if it wasn’t bad enough that their romantic getaway has been sidetracked, demons are now dogging their every step, and it is becoming harder to tell friend from foe. As their quest for answers becomes increasingly dire, Magnus and Alec will have to trust each other more than ever—even if it means revealing the secrets they’ve both been keeping.

Sono trascorsi ormai sei mesi dalla morte di Pa' Salt, e Tiggy, la quinta delle sorelle D'Aplièse, accetta un lavoro nella riserva naturale di Kinnaird. In questo luogo selvaggio e completamente isolato nelle Highlands scozzesi, si dovrà occupare di una razza felina a rischio di estinzione per conto di Charlie, l'affascinante proprietario della tenuta. Qui Tiggy incontra Cal, il guardacaccia e coinquilino, che presto diventerà un caro amico; Zara, la figlia adolescente e un po' ribelle di Charlie e Zed Eszu, corteggiatore insistente nonché ex fidanzato di una delle sorelle. Ma soprattutto incontra Chilly, un vecchio gitano che sembra conoscere molti dettagli del suo passato e di quello di sua nonna: la famosa ballerina di flamenco Lucía Amaya Albaycín. Davvero una strana coincidenza, ma Tiggy ha sempre avuto un intuito particolare, una connessione profonda con la natura. Questo incontro non è casuale, è parte del suo destino e, quando sarà pronta, non dovrà fare altro che seguire le indicazioni di Pa' Salt e bussare a una porticina azzurra nel Cortijo del Aire, a Granada. Dai paesaggi incontaminati della Scozia allo splendore assolato della Spagna, "La ragazza della luna" è il quinto episodio della saga delle Sette Sorelle.

Secondo volume della saga dell'Attraversaspecchi (dopo il primo, "Fidanzati dell'inverno"). Sulla gelida arca del Polo, dove Ofelia è stata sbattuta dalle Decane perché sposi suo malgrado il nobile Thorn, il caldo è soffocante. Ma è soltanto una delle illusioni provocate dalla casta dominante dell'arca, i Miraggi, in grado di produrre giungle sospese in aria, mari sconfinati all'interno di palazzi e vestiti di farfalle svolazzanti. A Città-cielo, capitale del Polo, Ofelia viene presentata al sire Faruk, il gigantesco spirito di famiglia bianco come la neve e completamente privo di memoria, che spera nelle doti di lettrice di Ofelia per svelare i misteri contenuti nel Libro, un documento enigmatico che nei secoli ha causato la pazzia o la morte degli incauti che si sono cimentati a decifrarlo. Per Ofelia è l'inizio di una serie di avventure e disavventure in cui, con il solo aiuto di una guardia del corpo invisibile, dovrà difendersi dagli attacchi a tradimento dei decaduti e dalle trappole mortali dei Miraggi. È la prima a stupirsi quando si rende conto che sta rischiando la pelle e investendo tutte le sue energie nell'indagine solo per amore di Thorn, l'uomo che credeva di odiare più di chiunque al mondo. Sennonché Thorn è scomparso...

It's 1889. The city is on the cusp of industry and power, and the Exposition Universelle has breathed new life into the streets and dredged up ancient secrets.

To hunt down the ancient artifact the Order seeks, Séverin calls upon a band of unlikely experts: An engineer with a debt to pay. A historian banished from his home. A dancer with a sinister past. And a brother in arms if not blood.

When Ben De Backer comes out to their parents as nonbinary, they're thrown out of their house and forced to move in with their estranged older sister, Hannah, and her husband, Thomas, whom Ben has never even met. Struggling with an anxiety disorder compounded by their parents' rejection, they come out only to Hannah, Thomas, and their therapist and try to keep a low profile in a new school.
But Ben's attempts to survive the last half of senior year unnoticed are thwarted when Nathan Allan, a funny and charismatic student, decides to take Ben under his wing. As Ben and Nathan's friendship grows, their feelings for each other begin to change, and what started as a disastrous turn of events looks like it might just be a chance to start a happier new life.
At turns heartbreaking and joyous, I Wish You All the Best is both a celebration of life, friendship, and love, and a shining example of hope in the face of adversity.

Mytica è sull'orlo dell'abisso. Un rituale oscuro ha liberato i Catalizzatori, antichi dei che adesso si aggirano per il mondo seminando morte e distruzione. Ed è tutta colpa di Lucia. Tuttavia la principessa non ha nessuna intenzione di arrendersi, anzi ha già un piano per annientare quella minaccia una volta per tutte. Ma ben presto si rende conto con orrore che la sua magia si sta indebolendo, al punto da trasformare il suo progetto in una missione suicida. A Lucia non rimane che una scelta: sacrificare la propria vita per la salvezza del mondo, o implorare il perdono del dio del fuoco e diventare schiava del suo regno immortale... Il principe Magnus è stato torturato e sepolto vivo. E ormai è troppo tardi. Ora, nel cuore di Cleo c'è spazio solo per la vendetta. Per uccidere chi le ha portato via il suo grande amore, la Principessa Dorata è disposta a mentire ai suoi alleati, a stringere un patto col Re del Sangue e perfino a sfruttare il Catalizzatore dell'acqua, un potere dirompente e pericoloso, che diventa ogni volta più difficile da controllare. Ciò che Cleo non sa, però, è che più farà ricorso a quella magia, più grande sarà il rischio di trasformarsi in un automa, completamente soggiogata al volere del Catalizzatore...
