Amina Akhtar

From Amina Akhtar comes a viciously funny thriller about wellness--the smoothies, the secrets, and the deliciously deadly impulses. Lifelong New Yorker Ronnie Khan never thought she'd leave Queens. She's not an "aim high, dream big" person--until she meets socialite wellness guru Marley Dewhurst. Marley isn't just a visionary; she's a revelation. Seduced by the fever dream of finding her best self, Ronnie makes for the desert mountains of Sedona, Arizona. Healing yoga, transcendent hikes, epic juice cleanses...Ronnie consumes her new bougie existence like a fine wine. But is it, really? Or is this whole self-care business a little sour? When the glam gurus around town start turning up gruesomely murdered, Ronnie has her answer: all is not well in wellness town. As Marley's blind ambition veers into madness, Ronnie fears for her life.

Notebook with No Lover

Reduce da un passato oscuro e intriso di sangue, Anya St. Clair si crea una nuova identità e si fa assumere come editor da una celebre rivista di moda, La Vie. L’unica ragione di questo passo, a ben vedere, sembra essere l’ossessione per Sarah Taft, la seguitissima influencer che lavora per la stessa rivista. Forse non è un caso se la mente fragile di Anya comincerà presto a vacillare, schiacciata dalle umiliazioni subite in redazione; e così, perso ogni contatto con la realtà, le manie sfoceranno nel delirio assoluto. Tra stagiste vessate, armi improprie, vendette in grande stile e ironica ferocia, Anya metterà in piedi una grande macchina della morte, nel cui vortice cadranno tutti i suoi colleghi.
