Abstract: As one of the few witches in Britain, Mika Moon knows she has to hide her magic, keep her head down, and stay away from other witches so their powers don't mingle and draw attention. And as an orphan who lost her parents at a young age and was raised by strangers, she's used to being alone and she follows the rules... with one exception: an online account, where she posts videos pretending to be a witch. She thinks no one will take it seriously. But someone does. An unexpected message arrives, begging her to travel to the remote and mysterious Nowhere House to teach three young witches how to control their magic. It breaks all of the rules, but Mika goes anyway, and is immediately tangled up in the lives and secrets of not only her three charges, but also an absent archaeologist, a retired actor, two long-suffering caretakers, and... Jamie. The handsome and prickly librarian of Nowhere House would do anything to protect the children, and as far as he's concerned, a stranger like Mika is a threat. An irritatingly appealing threat. As Mika begins to find her place at Nowhere House, the thought of belonging somewhere begins to feel like a real possibility. But magic isn't the only danger in the world, and when a threat comes knocking at their door, Mika will need to decide whether to risk everything to protect a found family she didn't know she was looking for...

Abstract: Hart is a marshal, tasked with patrolling the strange and magical wilds of Tanria. It's an unforgiving job, and Hart's got nothing but time to ponder his loneliness. Mercy never has a moment to herself. She's been single-handedly keeping Birdsall & Son Undertakers afloat in defiance of sullen jerks like Hart, who seems to have a gift for showing up right when her patience is thinnest. After yet another exasperating run-in with Mercy, Hart finds himself penning a letter addressed simply to "A Friend". Much to his surprise, an anonymous letter comes back in return, and a tentative friendship is born. If only Hart knew he's been baring his soul to the person who infuriates him most - Mercy. As the dangers from Tanria grow closer, so do the unlikely correspondents. But can their blossoming romance survive the fated discovery that their pen pals are their worst nightmares - each other?

Abstract: Voya Thomas may have passed her Calling to become a full-fledged witch, but the cost was higher than she'd ever imagined. Her grandmother is gone. Her cousin hates her. And her family doesn't believe that she has what it takes to lead them. What's more, Voya can't let go of her feelings for Luc, sponsor son of the genius billionaire Justin Tremblay - the man that Luc believes Voya killed. Consequently, Luc wants nothing to do with her. Even her own ancestors seem to have lost faith in her. Every day Voya begs for their guidance, but her calls go unanswered. As Voya struggles to convince everyone - herself included - that she can be a good Matriarch, she has a vision of a terrifying, deadly future. A vision that would spell the end of the Toronto witches. With a newfound sense of purpose, Voya must do whatever it takes to bring her shattered community together and stop what's coming for them before it's too late. Even if it means taking down the boy she loves - who might be the mastermind behind the coming devastation.

Abstract: In seguito alla morte improvvisa dei genitori, Grace è costretta a lasciare la sua amata San Diego e trasferirsi in Alaska, terra di cui non conosce praticamente nulla. Il primo impatto non è dei migliori: un atterraggio da panico su una pista ghiacciata e un viaggio rocambolesco a bordo di un gatto delle nevi, a temperature polari. Tuttavia, quando arriva alla Katmere Academy, la scuola esclusiva di cui suo zio è preside, la ragazza non può che rimanere a bocca aperta alla vista della sua nuova casa: un maestoso castello con le torri che svettano nel cielo nero. Ma l'incanto svanisce in fretta. Tempo un quarto d'ora e Jaxon Vega, il leader indiscusso della scuola, la minaccia e le intima di tornarsene da dove è venuta. Benché indignata e confusa dalle sue parole, Grace è affascinata da quel ragazzo misterioso, con il volto solcato da una cicatrice e gli occhi scuri che celano a stento una grande sofferenza. E decide di scoprirne ogni segreto. Più indaga, però, più si rende conto che Jaxon e i suoi compagni sono tutto fuorché comuni studenti e che alla Katmere Academy niente è come sembra. Quando il soprannaturale fa irruzione con prepotenza nella sua vita, Grace si aggrappa disperatamente all'unica cosa che considera reale: i sentimenti che prova per Jaxon. Saranno sufficienti a permetterle di sopravvivere in un mondo in cui i mostri esistono e non si nascondono sotto il letto? Fonte https://www.ibs.it/crave-libro-tracy-wolff/

Abstract: For Ning, the only thing worse than losing her mother is knowing that it's her own fault. She was the one who unknowingly brewed the poison tea that killed her - the poison tea that now threatens to also take her sister, Shu. When Ning hears of a competition to find the kingdom's greatest shennong-shi - masters of the ancient and magical art of tea-making - she travels to the imperial city to compete. The winner will receive a favor from the princess, which may be Ning's only chance to save her sister's life. But between the backstabbing competitors, bloody court politics, and a mysterious (and handsome) boy with a shocking secret, Ning might actually be the one in more danger. source: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/56978089-a-magic-steeped-in-poison?ac=1&from_search=true&qid=7TJYYDCyyp&rank=1

Abstract: Ox was twelve when his daddy taught him a very valuable lesson. He said that Ox wasn't worth anything and people would never understand him. Then he left. Ox was sixteen when he met the boy on the road. The little boy who talked and talked and talked. Ox found out later the little boy hadn't spoken in almost two years before that day, and that the little boy belonged to a family who had moved into the house at the end of the lane. Ox was seventeen when he found out the little boy's secret and it painted the world around him in colors of red and orange and violet, of Alpha and Beta and Omega. Ox was twenty-three when murder came to town and tore a hole in his head and heart. The boy chased after the monster with revenge in his bloodred eyes, leaving Ox behind to pick up the pieces. It's been three years since that fateful day - and the boy is back. Except now he's a man, and Ox can no longer ignore the song that howls between them.

Abstract: Rubem of No-Man's Land was content keeping to his wine, his pets, and his extensive collection of fishnets. But since a sentient, fuel-producing parasite bonded to his brainstem, every morally-depraved scientist and hardcore rebel for a hundred miles wants to ruthlessly dissect him. The parasite itself is no better, influencing his emotions and sassing him with his own memories as it slowly takes over his body. The only person offering Rubem help is Tavish K. Findlay, a dashing and manipulative philanthropist whose mother's fuel company monopolizes their corrupt underwater city with an iron claw. She desperately wants to tear Rubem apart for the parasite before those who oppose her can do the same. Her son is irresistibly charismatic though, and after a lifetime of being kicked out and disavowed, Rubem is desperate to believe in the friendship Tavish offers. With revolutionary plots and political schemes tangling his every choice, Rubem must soon decide whether or not to trust Tavish in his fight against the parasite's growing control. Odder Still is a M/M fantasy novel with a class-crossing slow burn romance, murderous intrigue, and a Marvel's Venom-style parasite-human friendship in an underwater steampunk city. This book exist in the wider These Treacherous Tides universe, coming chronologically after Once Stolen, but it is the first book in the No-Man's Lander series and is an easy entry point into the world. Each No-Man's Lander book has a romantically fulfilling ending and a final HEA, with steamy thoughts and foreplay but no explicit sex.

Abstract: Kadou, the shy prince of Arasht, finds himself at odds with one of the most powerful ambassadors at court - the body-father of the queen's new child - in an altercation which results in his humiliation. To prove his loyalty to the queen, his sister, Kadou takes responsibility for the investigation of a break-in at one of their guilds, with the help of his newly appointed bodyguard, the coldly handsome Evemer, who seems to tolerate him at best. In Arasht, where princes can touch-taste precious metals with their fingers and myth runs side by side with history, counterfeiting is heresy, and the conspiracy they discover could cripple the kingdom's financial standing and bring about its ruin.

Abstract: In a world where magic has run rampant, there are strict laws protecting music from being tampered with. It is the last true art, untouched by magic and still beautiful. Sofi is the daughter of the king's personal Musik, the most powerful musician, who spreads songs of the king's triumphs and achievements. Sofi has been raised to replace him, but when the time comes for him to choose his official apprentice, Sofi's hopes are dashed as he elects to take on Lara, the daughter of a powerful lord, who has never played music before. When her father dies the very next day, Lara becomes the king's Musik - and is suddenly able to play Sofi's father's famous bone flute as beautifully as if she'd been playing all her life. Sofi is dedicated to exposing Lara as a fraud who is using forbidden magic to perform, but the more she learns about Lara, the more she starts to doubt everything she thought she knew about family, music, and the girl she thought was her enemy. Sofi will have to do everything in her power to unlock the reasons her father made the choice he did and to, possibly, win back the right to her music - all while trying not to fall for the girl who stole her future.

Abstract: Once upon a time . . . happily ever after turned out differently than expected. In this new, feminist, queer fairy-tale collection, you'll find the princesses, mermaids, knights, barmaids, children, and wise old women who have been forced to sit on the sidelines in classic stories taking center stage. A gorgeous all-new collection in graphic novel format from a Stonewall Honor-winning author and artist. What if the giant who abducted you was actually thoughtful and kind? What if you didn't want to marry your handsome, popular, but cold-inside suitor? What if your one true love has all the responsibilities that come with running a kingdom? Award-winning author Melanie Gillman's phenomenal colored-pencil art creates another "ever after" for the characters who are most worthy of it.
