A Novel

The Serpent King

"A story of love, healing, and second chances " (Emily Henry) following a down on his luck country musician who, in the throes of grief after a shocking loss, moves back home and rekindles a relationship with his high school sweetheart, from award-winning author Jeff Zentner. Colton Gentry is riding high. His first hit in nearly a decade has caught fire, he's opening for country megastar Brant Lucas, and he's married to one of the hottest acts in the country. But he's hurting. Only a few weeks earlier, his best friend, Duane, was murdered onstage by a mass shooter at a country music festival. One night, with his trauma festering and Jim Beam flowing through his veins, Colton stands before a sold-out arena crowd of country music fans and offers his unfiltered opinion on guns. It goes over poorly. Immediately, his career and marriage implode. Left with few choices or funds, he retreats to his rural Kentucky hometown. He's resigned himself to has-been-dom, until a chance encounter at his town's new farm-to-table restaurant gives him a second shot at life: a job working in the kitchen with Luann, his first love, who has undergone her own reinvention. Told through perspectives alternating between his senior year of high school, his time coming up with Duane as hungry musicians in Nashville, and the present, COLTON GENTRY'S THIRD ACT is a story of coming home, undoing past heartbreaks, and navigating grief, and is a reminder that there are next acts in life, no matter how unlikely they may seem.

Carver je obyčajný tínedžer, má kamošov, robotu, v škole sa mu celkom darí a na hodinách tvorivého písania exceluje. A potom pošle jednu esemesku. A jeho najlepší kamoši skončia pod kolesami kamióna. Vyrovnať sa s náhlou stratou sa dá len ťažko, keď máte vinníka priamo pod nosom. Carverov život nie je príbeh o vine a treste. Ale o žiali a o bolesti, o rozlúčkach a o odchodoch, no najmä o nových začiatkoch. O nádeji na lepšie zajtrajšky, ktoré sú doslova na dosah, ale zároveň sa nám zdajú nedosiahnuteľné.

Farby smútku

Uma história contemporânea divertida e emocionante sobre amizade, filmes de terror trash e amadurecimento. Toda sexta-feira, as melhores amigas Josie e Delia se transformam em Rayne Ravenscroft e Delilah Darkwood, apresentadoras de um programa de terror exibido em um canal da TV local. Com o final do ensino médio se aproximando, Josie precisa decidir se vai mudar de cidade para estudar em uma universidade grande e ir atrás de seu sonho de seguir carreira na televisão — mas isso significaria ficar longe de sua melhor amiga... Enquanto isso, Delia sonha que seu pai, um fã de filmes de terror que abandonou a família anos atrás, assista ao programa delas na TV e retome o contato. Em um fim de semana, as duas resolvem fazer uma viagem para a Flórida, onde vai acontecer a ShiverCon, a maior convenção do universo do terror e o lugar perfeito para conseguir um contrato com uma grande emissora. Mas pode ser que um jovem lutador de MMA, um produtor de televisão excêntrico e um basset hound idoso acabem transformando a vida dessas melhores amigas de uma maneira inesperada.
