Fans of Emma Lord, Rachel Lynn Solomon, and Alex Light will love this clever, charming, and poignant debut novel with a masterful slow-burn romance at its core about a girl who must decide whether to pursue her dreams or preserve her relationships, including a budding romance with her ex-best friend, when an app she created goes viral.Ro Devereux can predict your future. Or, at least, the app she built for her senior project can.Working with her neighbor, a retired behavioral scientist, Ro created an app called MASH, designed around the classic game Mansion Apartment Shack House, that can predict a person's future with 93% accuracy. The app will even match users with their soulmates. Though it was only supposed to be a class project, MASH quickly takes off and gains the attention of tech investors.Ro's dream is to work in Silicon Valley, and she'll do anything to prove to her new backing company--and the world--that the app works. So it's a huge shock when the app says her soulmate is Miller, her childhood best friend with whom she had a friendship-destroying fight three years ago. Now thrust into a fake dating scenario, Ro and Miller must address the years of pain between them if either of them will have any chance of achieving their dreams. And as the app takes on a life of its own, Ro sees that it's affecting people in ways she never expected--and if she can't regain control, it might take her and everything she believes in down with it.

An apocalyptic game of cat and mouse... BOOK 1 I have a good life in New York City, apart from the recurring nightmares. That, and my father's mysterious disappearance years ago. And in a blinding instant, that life is stolen from me. A wayward genius has discovered a powerful grimoire that grants full control over demons, and has begun his warpath towards total annihilation. With my newly-endowed ability to envisage future events, I'm the only one who can stop him. Stuck with my brother and a supernatural bounty hunter seeking vengeance, I now need to prevent a nightmarish catastrophe from being unleashed.

Hadassah was used to her life being dictated by those around her, she is the Princess of Zamdi. It's to be expected.Her attitude, her future, and her decisions have always been curated by someone else. She'd accepted this. However, marriage seems to be one step too far. Before she knows it, she is living with the man who is able to take the one thing she loves away from her. And so, she is left with an impossible decision. Isaiah or Zamdi?***Hadassah is the princess of Zamdi. She is an only child and is therefore the only heir to the throne of Zamdi. However, the laws in her country prohibit her from ever becoming an Empress. This is the main cause of her anguish. She is always held to high standards and finds it difficult to maintain her job as a princess when she wants to be more. She also loves love, so, an arranged marriage is straight from her nightmares and only further reinforces her place in the hierarchy... at the bottom. She is infuriated at her father's uncapped control, her mother's internalised misogyny, and her own incapacity to do anything about her situation.She is passionate about what she wants, but struggles to voice her thoughts and take initiative. But that all changes when Isaiah walks into her home. ***Isaiah is the prince of Andrai. He is the eldest son and is the heir to the throne. He has fine-tuned his act of being the perfect royal. He does what he's told with a charismatic smile at all times. Marrying Hadassah wasn't his plan, but he graciously accepts it anyway, aiming to appease his volatile father. As he gets closer to Hadassah, he realises he can't treat this marriage like a transaction and feels guilty about keeping secrets from her. She's no longer an obligation, she's someone important to him. However, when Hadassah finds out about his deceit, for the first time in his life, he has no plan. *A novella by Elle Michaels

"Als Hampelpampel aufwachte, wuÃte er nicht, wie lange er geschlafen hatte und wo er sich befand." Er merkte aber, daà er sich in einer anderen Welt, dem Land der Feliziten befand.Schnell fand er Freunde in dieser paradiesischen Welt. Diese Idealwelt wird jedoch regelmäÃig vom Bösewicht, dem Fürchterlich Stinkenden, dem Furchterregenden Zauberer und seinen Helfershelfern heimgesucht.Hampelpampel und seinen Freunden gelingt es, den Zauberer zu überlisten. Um jedoch die vom Zauberer gefangenen Felizitenkinder zu befreien, müssen Hampelpampel und seine Freunde eine abenteuerliche Reise durch die AuÃenwelt und über fünf Kontinente bewältigen.Was erwartet die Freunde?Welche Bösewichte treffen sie auf der Erde an?Wie kann es den Freunden gelingen, die gefangenen Kinder zu befreien?◆◆◆◆◆◆Hampelpampel wurde für Jugendliche geschrieben, eignet sich jedoch durchaus auch für Erwachsene, da die Geschichte mit ihrem Humor und ihren vielen politischen Bezügen auf mehreren Ebenen unterhält. Wie bei vielen Kinderbüchern geht es in Hampelpampel im Wesentlichen um den ewigen Kampf zwischen Gut und Böse, zwischen Freundschaft und Egoismus, Liebe und Hass. Im Gegensatz zu den üblichen Schauplätzen des Genres, spielt sich die Auseinandersetzung in Hampelpampel jedoch vorwiegend in der realistisch abgebildeten Welt von heute ab, die von machthungrigen Politikern, geldgierigen Drogenhändlern, rassistischen Zollbeamten etc. bevölkert wird. Der faszinierende Kontrast zwischen der Aktualität unserer zwielichtigen Gegenwart und der idealen Fantasiewelt der Feliziten erzeugt eine eigene Magie, indem die Feliziten unserer Gesellschaft den Spiegel in einer ähnlich komisch-naiven Weise vorhalten, wie es die in die Salons des 19. Jahmunderts importierten Edlen Wilden in ihren Kommentaren zu unserer Kultur getan haben. Obwohl dieser Aspekt des Buches von der jüngeren Leserschaft kaum in vollem Masse verstanden werden wird, geht der erzieherische Effekt daraus ganz sicher nicht verloren. In diesem Sinn erfüllt Hampelpampel voll und ganz die antike Forderung von "prodesse et delectare", dass Kunst und Literatur sowohl nützen als auch unterhalten sollte. Hampelpampel wirkt zwar hie und da etwas moralisierend, das innovative Konzept und die vielen Einfälle machen das Buch jedoch zu einem echten Lesevergnügen und heben es positiv von der Masse ab.
