  • A special paperback edition with sprayed edges of the instant New York Times bestseller--a deliciously twisty locked room mystery set at a luxe coastal retreat from the author of The Paris Apartment and The Guest List.

    Secrets. Lies. Murder. Let the festivities begin...

    It's the opening night of The Manor, the newest and hottest luxury resort, and no expense, small or large, has been spared. The infinity pool sparkles. The "Manor Mule" cocktail (grapefruit, ginger, vodka, and a dash of CBD oil) is being poured with a heavy hand. Everyone is wearing linen.

    But under the burning midsummer sun, darkness stirs. Old friends and enemies circulate among the guests. Just outside the Manor's immaculately kept grounds, an ancient forest bristles with secrets. And it's not too long before the local police are called. Turns out the past has crashed the party, with deadly results.

    THE GIRLBOSS - THE HUSBAND - THE KITCHEN HELP - THE MYSTERY GUEST

    Everyone's got a secret. Everyone's got an agenda. But not everyone will survive...The Midnight Feast.

  • Don't miss out on the stunning DELUXE LIMITED EDITION while supplies last. This breathtaking collectible is only available on a limited first print run in the U.S. and Canada, a must-have for any book lover.

    Shield of Sparrows is a slow-burn, high-stakes romantasy perfect for fans of Sarah J. Maas and Rebecca Yarros--where enemies become lovers, monsters stalk a cursed realm, and a forgotten princess finds the strength to tear off her crown and become the warrior she was never meant to be.

    The gods sent monsters to the five kingdoms to remind mortals they must kneel.

    I've spent my life kneeling--to their will and to my father's. As a princess, my only duty is to wear the crown and obey the king.

    I was never meant to rule. Never meant to fight. And I was never supposed to be the daughter who sealed an ancient treaty with her own blood.

    But that changed the fateful day I stepped into my father's throne room. The day a legendary monster hunter sailed to our shores. The day a prince ruined my life.

    Now I'm crossing treacherous lands beside a warrior who despises me as much as I despise him--bound to a future I didn't choose and a husband I barely know.

    Everyone wants me to be something I'm not--a queen, a spy, a sacrifice.

    But what if I refused the role chosen for me? What if I made my own rules? What if there's power in being underestimated?

    And what if--for the first time--I reached for it?

  • NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER - From #1 New York Times bestselling author Ava Reid comes a "masterful reimagining" (Publishers Weekly) of Lady Macbeth, Shakespeare's most famous villainess, giving her a voice, a past, and a power that transforms the story men have written for her.

    "Lady Macbeth doesn't retell Shakespeare so much as slice cleanly through it, revealing what was hidden beneath. I couldn't look away."--Alix E. Harrow, New York Times bestselling author of Starling House

    The gorgeous paperback edition features pink stained edges and French flaps.

    A CRIMEREADS BEST BOOK OF THE YEAR

    The Lady knows the stories: how her eyes induce madness in men.

    The Lady knows she will be wed to the Scottish brute, who does not leave his warrior ways behind when he comes to the marriage bed.

    The Lady knows his hostile, suspicious court will be a game of strategy, requiring all of her wiles and hidden witchcraft to survive.

    But the Lady does not know her husband has occult secrets of his own. She does not know that prophecy girds him like armor. She does not know that her magic is greater and more dangerous, and that it will threaten the order of the world.

    She does not know this yet. But she will.

  • Now an Original Series on Prime Video!

    Can Belly make a final choice between Jeremiah and Conrad? Find out in the conclusion of the New York Times bestselling The Summer I Turned Pretty trilogy from the author of To All the Boys I've Loved Before (now a major motion picture!). This deluxe edition features foil on the cover and stenciled sprayed edges!

    Belly has only ever been in love with two boys, both with the last name Fisher. And after being with Jeremiah for the last two years, she's almost positive he is her soul mate. Almost. While Conrad has not gotten over the mistake of letting Belly go, Jeremiah has always known that Belly is the girl for him. So when Belly and Jeremiah decide to make things forever, Conrad realizes that it's now or never--tell Belly he loves her, or lose her for good.

    Belly will have to confront her feelings for Jeremiah and Conrad and face the inevitable: She will have to break one of their hearts.

  • Now an Original Series on Prime Video!

    Belly has an unforgettable summer in this stunning start to the Summer I Turned Pretty series from the New York Times bestselling author of To All the Boys I've Loved Before, Jenny Han. This deluxe edition features foil on the cover and stenciled sprayed edges!

    Some summers are just destined to be pretty.

    Belly measures her life in summers. Everything good, everything magical happens between the months of June and August. Winters are simply a time to count the weeks until the next summer, a place away from the beach house, away from Susannah, and most importantly, away from Jeremiah and Conrad. They are the boys that Belly has known since her very first summer--they have been her brother figures, her crushes, and everything in between. But one summer, one wonderful and terrible summer, the more everything changes, the more it all ends up just the way it should have been all along.
