    The princess diaries
    • Hej, tu Mia. A nie, przepraszam, Jej Książęca Wysokość Amelia Mignonette Grimaldi Thermopolis Renaldo. Najszczęśliwsza dziewczyna na świecie… w teorii. Jeszcze kilka tygodni temu byłam zwykłą nastolatką z Manhattanu, a teraz muszę przygotować się do wizyty w Genowii, gdzie zadebiutuję w arystokratycznym towarzystwie. To niełatwe, zwłaszcza że mój kuzyn może chcieć się mnie pozbyć, aby utorować sobie drogę do tronu, a ciążowe humory mojej matki coraz bardziej mnie irytują. Bycie księżniczką to nie bajka, a zakochaną księżniczką… i to w chłopaku innej dziewczyny… to prawdziwy koszmar! Meg Cabot, autorka wielu powieści, w tym popularnej serii „Pamiętnik księżniczki”, która zdobyła uznanie na całym świecie i została zekranizowana przez Disneya, pisze o młodych, silnych dziewczynach, które przeżywają niezwykłe przygody. Obecnie mieszka w Key West na Florydzie z mężem i uwielbia koty, co może wyjaśniać, dlaczego ulubionym prezentem od fana jest naturalnych rozmiarów Gruby Louie z papier mâché.

      Drugi tom kultowej serii o księżniczce Mii. Cześć, tu znowu ja, księżniczka Mia, następczyni tronu Genowii, która zbłaźniła się w telewizji na oczach swojego narodu (to tylko 30 tysięcy osób, ale jednak)! Sądziłam, że mam wszystko pod kontrolą. Dowiedziałam się, kim naprawdę jest mój tata, przetrwałam musztrę grand-mere, pogodziłam się z Lilly, a nawet zaakceptowałam, że mama spotyka się z moim nauczycielem matematyki, panem Gianinim. Wtedy jednak moja kochana rodzicielka zaskoczyła mnie szokującą nowiną, a grand-mere postanowiła zorganizować durny wywiad, podczas którego oczywiście musiałam się wygłupić. Teraz czekają mnie konsekwencje mojego gadulstwa! Wspaniale! Ale cóż… Nikt nie mówił, że życie księżniczki jest proste. Meg Cabot, urodzona w ten sam dzień co księżniczka Stefania z Monako, ma na koncie dziesiątki powieści, zarówno pod własnym nazwiskiem, jak i pseudonimem Jenny Carroll. Znana jest z cykli „Mediatorka”, „1800-Jeśli-Widziałeś-Zadzwoń” i „Dziewczyna Ameryki”, a także z serii „Pamiętnik księżniczki”, która została opublikowana w ponad 38 krajach i zekranizowana przez Disneya. Obecnie mieszka w Key West na Florydzie z mężem i uwielbia koty.

      A witchy rom-com from New York Times bestseller Meg Cabot features plus-size witch Jessica Gold, who must team up with a handsome stranger to protect her village from an otherworldly threat—while guarding her heart. In her teens, Jess cast a spell that went awry, leading to a lifetime ban from the World Council of Witches. Fifteen years later, she’s surprised when tall, charming WCW member Derrick Winters arrives in her quaint village of West Harbor, declaring her the Chosen One. However, this doesn’t mean she’s chosen to style the town’s elite for the tricentennial ball or to join the WCW—she’s done with organizations that dictate what makes a “true” witch. Instead, Jess is chosen to save West Harbor itself. As summer progresses, Jess begins to feel a spark with Derrick, but doubts arise when she discovers he may not be who he claims. Now, Jess must decide whether to trust him and work together against the sinister force threatening their home, or rely on her magic to keep herself and her heart safe. Can she harness her powers in time to save the village?

She’s already escaped one storm—her emotionally abusive ex—so a hurricane seems like it will be a piece of cake. But animal-loving Bree does become alarmed when she realizes how many islanders have been cut off from their beloved pets. Now it’s up to her to save as many of Little Bridge’s cats and dogs as she can . . . but to do so, she’s going to need help—help she has no choice but to accept from her boss’s sexy nephew, Drew Hartwell, the Mermaid Café’s most notorious heartbreaker. But when Bree starts falling for Drew, just as Little Bridge’s power is restored and her penitent ex shows up, she has to ask herself if her island fling was only a result of the stormy weather, or if it could last during clear skies too.

The last place Suze Simon expects to find herself during Valentine’s Day is a cemetery. But that’s what happens when you’re a mediator—cursed with the “gift” of communicating with the dead. That’s how Suze has ended up at the graves of a pair of tragic young lovers. They’re NCDPs—Non-Compliant Deceased Persons—whose drama didn’t end with death. It’s Suze’s job to make sure they move on—for good. But the NCDPs aren’t the only ones with problems. The reason Suze is spending her Valentine’s Day with the undead instead of her boyfriend, Jesse, is because he’s having so much trouble adjusting to life after death . . . not surprising, considering the fact that he used to be an NCDP himself, and now his girlfriend busts his former kind for a living. Can Suze use her mediating skills to propose a mutual resolution, and bring all these young lovers together, especially on the night Saint Valentine declared sacred to romance?

But when she's hired as a guidance counselor at her alma mater, she stumbles across a decade-old murder, and soon ancient history isn't all that's coming back to haunt her. Old ghosts as well as new ones are coming out of the woodwork, some to test her, some to vex her, and it isn't only because she's a mediator, gifted with second sight. What happens when old ghosts come back to haunt you? If you're a mediator, you might have to kick a little ass. From a sophomore haunted by the murderous specter of a child to ghosts of a very different kind--including Paul Slater, Suze's ex, who shows up to make a bargain Suze is certain must have come from the Devil himself--Suze isn't sure she'll make it through the semester, let alone to her wedding night. Suze is used to striking first and asking questions later. But what happens when ghosts from her past--including one she found nearly impossible to resist--strike first?

Reed Stewart thought he’d left all his small town troubles—including a broken heart—behind when he ditched tiny Bloomville, Indiana, ten years ago to become rich and famous on the professional golf circuit. Then one tiny post on the Internet causes all of those troubles to return . . . with a vengeance. Becky Flowers has worked hard to build her successful senior relocation business, but she’s worked even harder to forget Reed Stewart ever existed. She has absolutely no intention of seeing him when he returns—until his family hires her to save his parents. Now Reed and Becky can’t avoid one another—or the memories of that one fateful night. And soon everything they thought they knew about themselves (and each other) has been turned upside down, and they—and the entire town of Bloomville—might never be the same, all because The Boy Is Back.
