Joan Goodwin has been obsessed with the stars for as long as she can remember. Thoughtful and reserved, Joan is content with her life as a professor of physics and astronomy at Rice University and as aunt to her precocious niece, Frances. That is, until she comes across an advertisement seeking the first women scientists to join NASA's space shuttle program. Suddenly, Joan burns to be one of the few people to go to space. Selected from a pool of thousands of applicants in the summer of 1980, Joan begins training at Houston's Johnson Space Center, alongside an exceptional group of fellow candidates: Top Gun pilot Hank Redmond and scientist John Griffin, who are kind and easygoing even when the stakes are highest; mission specialist Lydia Danes, who has worked too hard to play nice; warmhearted Donna Fitzgerald, who is navigating her own secrets; and Vanessa Ford, the magnetic and mysterious aeronautical engineer, who can fix any engine and fly any plane. As the new astronauts become unlikely friends and prepare for their first flights, Joan finds a passion and a love she never imagined. In this new light, Joan begins to question everything she thinks she knows about her place in the observable universe. Then, in December of 1984, on mission STS-LR9, it all changes in an instant. Fast-paced, thrilling, and emotional, Atmosphere is Taylor Jenkins Reid at her best: transporting readers to iconic times and places, creating complex protagonists, and telling a passionate and soaring story about the transformative power of love--this time among the stars.

- Dall'autrice del bestseller I SETTE MARITI DI HEVELYN HUGO - Malibù, 27 agosto 1983. La città è in fermento: questa sera, come ogni anno, Nina Riva darà la grande festa di fine estate a cui tutti sognano di partecipare. Che si tratti di gente dello showbiz o di persone comuni, chiunque non sta nella pelle all'idea di farsi vedere accanto ai famosi fratelli Riva, figli del leggendario cantante Mick: Nina, la top model; Jay, il campione di surf; Hud, il celebre fotografo; Kit, l'adorata sorella più piccola. Chiunque, tranne la stessa Nina, che ha sempre odiato stare al centro dell'attenzione, e a maggior ragione ora che è appena stata lasciata dal marito, noto tennista. E forse anche Hud si risparmierebbe volentieri quella festa, durante la quale sarà costretto a rivelare al fratello - cui è legatissimo sin dalla nascita - qualcosa di inconfessabile. Mentre Kit ha deciso di invitare una certa persona senza prima consultarsi con nessuno. Abbandonati a sé stessi in tenera età, i quattro sono sempre stati inseparabili, un padre e una madre l'uno per l'altra. E un modello di successo per tutta l'America. Eppure, dietro quella facciata scintillante e quei sorrisi da copertina, ognuno di loro nasconde qualcosa. Segreti che stanotte verranno a galla, mentre l'alcol scorrerà a fiumi e la musica coprirà parole, lacrime, risate. Ed entro l'alba, quando ormai la villa a picco sull'oceano sarà in fiamme, ognuno dovrà anche decidere cosa del proprio passato lasciare andare in cenere e cosa portare con sé in una nuova vita. Finalmente in Italia uno dei romanzi più attesi di Taylor Jenkins Reid, Malibu Rising: in classifica per mesi sul New York Times, amatissimo dal BookTok, tradotto in 30 lingue, diventerà anche una serie tv.

Carrie Soto este aprigă, iar hotărârea ei de a câștiga cu orice preț nu a făcut-o populară. Dar, până la retragerea ei din activitatea sportivă, a fost cea mai bună jucătoare de tenis din lume. A doborât toate recordurile posibile și a câștigat douăzeci de titluri de Grand Slam. Dacă o întrebi pe Carrie, a învins pe drept de fiecare dată, căci nu s-a ferit de sacrificii pentru a deveni cea mai bună, avându-l drept antrenor pe tatăl ei, Javier. El însuși fost campion, Javier s-a ocupat de pregătirea temeinică a fiicei sale de când aceasta era o copilă. La șase ani de la retragerea din activitate, Carrie se află în tribunele de la US Open, turneul din 1994, și privește cu uimire cum recordul îi este smuls de o jucătoare agresivă și uimitoare pe nume Nicki Chan. La 37 de ani, ia așadar decizia surprinzătoare de a reveni pe teren, antrenată de tatăl ei, pentru un ultim sezon competițional, în încercarea de a-și recupera recordul. Chiar dacă jurnaliștii din presa sportivă spun că oricum nu au simpatizat-o niciodată pe Carrie, poreclită „Halebarda”. Chiar dacă nu se mai mișcă la fel de iute ca pe vremuri. Și chiar dacă înseamnă să-și calce pe mândrie și să se antreneze alături de Bowe Huntley, un bărbat în fața căruia, odinioară, a îndrăznit să își deschidă sufletul. La fel ca ea, Bowe are ceva de demonstrat înainte de a renunța la tenis pentru totdeauna. „Reid se inspiră din viețile unor sportive adevărate (Serena, Sharapova) pentru a construi o lume a rivalităților și a intrigilor credibile, în care suspansul meciurilor de tenis este de-a dreptul năucitor.” People „O poveste captivantă despre curaj, răbdare, dar și despre puterea de a-ți arăta vulnerabilitățile!” BuzzFeed „Aproape fiecare roman al lui Taylor Jenkins Reid se citește ca un fermecător studiu dedicat unui anumit domeniu și unei anumite epoci. Vii pentru atenția acordată artei jocului din Regele Richard: Crescând campioni, dar rămâi pentru poveștile de dragoste care se desfășoară în afara terenului, precum și pentru scorul final.” Entertainment Weekly „Cel mai recent roman al lui Taylor Jenkins Reid este plasat în lumea elitei tenisului mondial și urmărește o fostă campioană nemiloasă care, după ce și-a văzut recordul doborât de o colegă mai tânără, stea în ascensiune, decide să revină pe teren la 37 de ani pentru a-și recupera titlul. O poveste care te inspiră cu adevărat.” Cosmopolitan „Un roman emoționant despre o echipă tată-fiică, amândoi la fel de faimoși și de perseverenți.” Time „Minunată! Genul de carte intensă, inteligentă și convingătoare pe care trebuie să o lași deoparte la fiecare câteva pagini pentru a-ți trage sufletul. Voi lua o bucată din Carrie Soto cu mine în viață și voi fi puțin mai bună datorită ei.” EMILY HENRY, autoarea romanului Două cărți și o vacanță ISBN ebook: 9786060883203

'Reid weet van een tenniswedstrijd een pageturner te maken, zelfs voor lezers die niets om sport geven.' - Kirkus (starred) Carrie Soto's fanatisme op de tennisbaan heeft haar niet populair gemaakt. Maar wanneer ze haar carrière beëindigt is ze de beste ooit: ze heeft elk record verbroken en twintig grandslamtitels gewonnen. Ze offerde er zo goed als alles voor op. Zes jaar later ziet Carrie vanaf de tribune van de US Open dat het record haar wordt afgenomen door de meedogenloze speler Nicki Chan. Dit kan ze niet accepteren: ze neemt de beslissing om een comeback te maken en het record terug te winnen. De media zijn haar echter niet goedgezind en op haar zevenendertigste is ze niet meer zo snel en zo sterk als vroeger. Zal Carrie Soto haar record terugkrijgen? Een ontroerend verhaal over perfectie, doorzettingsvermogen en kwetsbaarheid. 'Reids eerdere romans waren fenomenale hits, van haar nieuwste hoef je niet minder te verwachten.' - Booklist (starred) 'Reid heeft weer een dijk van een boek geschreven.'- Library Journal (starred) 'Geen zorgen als je niet van sportverhalen houdt; dit is een hartverwamende roman over een iconisch en vasthoudend vader-dochterduo.'- Time 'Prachtig. Scherp, slim en krachtig, een boek dat je om de zoveel pagina's opzij moet leggen om op adem te komen.' - Emily Henry, auteur van Stranddagboek 'Een episch verhaal over moed, uithoudingsvermorgen en de kracht van kwetsbaarheid.'- Buzzfeed

#1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • “An epic adventure about a female athlete perhaps past her prime, brought back to the tennis court for one last grand slam” (Elle), from the author of Malibu Rising, Daisy Jones & The Six, and The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo “A heart-filled novel about an iconic and persevering father and daughter.”—Time “Gorgeous.

But by the time she retires from tennis, she is the best player the world has ever seen. She has shattered every record and claimed twenty Grand Slam titles. And if you ask Carrie, she is entitled to every one. She sacrificed nearly everything to become the best, with her father, Javier, as her coach. A former champion himself, Javier has trained her since the age of two. But six years after her retirement, Carrie finds herself sitting in the stands of the 1994 US Open, watching her record be taken from her by a brutal, stunning player named Nicki Chan. At thirty-seven years old, Carrie makes the monumental decision to come out of retirement and be coached by her father for one last year in an attempt to reclaim her record. Even if the sports media says that they never liked “the Battle-Axe” anyway. Even if her body doesn’t move as fast as it did.

Ao longo das cartas, eles confessam seus medos e compartilham sentimentos escondidos no fundo de suas almas, tentando decidir como seguir em frente.

Da mesma autora de Os Sete Maridos de Evelyn Hugo Vencedor do Prémio Goodreads Toda a gente conhece os icónicos Daisy Jones & The Six, mas nunca ninguém soube o que levou à sua separação no auge da popularidade... Até agora. Durante a adolescência, no final da década de 1960, Daisy Jones descobre a noite de Los Angeles: os bares, as estrelas de rock, o sexo e as drogas. Mas o que ela quer realmente é escrever as suas próprias canções. Com uma voz rouca, uma beleza distintiva e uma atitude confiante, Daisy está no caminho certo para o sucesso. Os The Six, a banda dos irmãos Billy e Graham Dunne, começam também a ganhar alguma notoriedade, mas o ritmo da vida na estrada, as groupies e o álcool levam a que Billy comece a descarrilar, tanto em palco como na sua vida pessoal. Os caminhos de Daisy e Billy cruzam-se quando o produtor musical da banda decide juntar as duas vozes num dueto, que resulta num êxito estrondoso. A partir daí, os Daisy Jones & The Six começam a tocar em todos os gira-discos, os seus concertos esgotam os recintos e a banda torna-se uma verdadeira lenda. Esta é a história dos primeiros tempos e das noites loucas, mas todos os membros da banda recordam o que aconteceu de maneira diferente. Porque nem sempre é fácil perceber onde acaba a música e começam os sentimentos. Os elogios da crítica: «A Daisy e a banda conquistaram o meu coração e vão certamente conquistar o vosso também.» — Reese Witherspoon

High drama at the beach, starring four sexy, surfing siblings and their deadbeat, famous-crooner dad.”—People ONE OF THE BEST BOOKS OF THE YEAR: The Washington Post, Time, Marie Claire, PopSugar, Parade, Teen Vogue, Self, She Reads Four famous siblings throw an epic party to celebrate the end of the summer. But over the course of twenty-four hours, the family drama that ensues will change their lives forever. Malibu: August 1983. It’s the day of Nina Riva’s annual end-of-summer party, and anticipation is at a fever pitch. Everyone wants to be around the famous Rivas: Nina, the talented surfer and supermodel; brothers Jay and Hud, one a championship surfer, the other a renowned photographer; and their adored baby sister, Kit. Together the siblings are a source of fascination in Malibu and the world over—especially as the offspring of the legendary singer Mick Riva. The only person not looking forward to the party of the year is Nina herself, who never wanted to be the center of attention, and who has also just been very publicly abandoned by her pro tennis player husband. Oh, and maybe Hud—because it is long past time for him to confess something to the brother from whom he’s been inseparable since birth. Jay, on the other hand, is counting the minutes until nightfall, when the girl he can’t stop thinking about promised she’ll be there. And Kit has a couple secrets of her own—including a guest she invited without consulting anyone. By midnight the party will be completely out of control. By morning, the Riva mansion will have gone up in flames. But before that first spark in the early hours before dawn, the alcohol will flow, the music will play, and the loves and secrets that shaped this family’s generations will all come rising to the surface. Malibu Rising is a story about one unforgettable night in the life of a family: the night they each have to choose what they will keep from the people who made them . . . and what they will leave behind.
