Ahoj, vítejte u nového článku. Dneska jsem si pro vás připravila přehled knižních novinek za leden. A jelikož jich je tentokrát opravdu hodně, tak jsem to rozdělila na dvě části - tato obsahuje pouze anglické knihy, ty české budou buď dneska večer, nebo během zítřka, uvidím, jak to stihnu. Jinak jsem taky trošku upravila formát článku - místo toho, abych ke každé knize psala nějaký svůj komentář, což je časově dost vyčerpávající a stejně k tomu nemám moc co říct, když jsem knihu ještě nečetla, jsem vám všude dala základní informace a anotaci, takže si ji můžete přečíst a zjistit, jestli se vám nějaká kniha líbí :). Anotace jsou ale v originále, kdybych je měla všechny překládat, tak byc se z toho zbláznila. Tolik k úvodu, pojďme se podívat na ty knihy.

Above all, she loves the chilling story of Frost, the blue-eyed winter demon, who appears in the frigid night to claim unwary souls. Wise Russians fear him, her nurse says, and honor the spirits of house and yard and forest that protect their homes from evil.

After Vasilisa's mother dies, her father goes to Moscow and brings home a new wife. Fiercely devout, city-bred, Vasilisa's new stepmother forbids her family from honoring the household spirits. The family acquiesces, but Vasilisa is frightened, sensing that more hinges upon their rituals than anyone knows.

And indeed, crops begin to fail, evil creatures of the forest creep nearer, and misfortune stalks the village. All the while, Vasilisa's stepmother grows ever harsher in her determination to groom her rebellious stepdaughter for either marriage or confinement in a convent.

  1. The Hundred Lies of LL mám už vyhlídnuté hodně dlouho a The Bear and the Nightingale jen pár dní (mimochodem to bude trilogie, ale zatím nemá jméno). :D Jinak mě z tohoto seznamu zaujal ještě The Sleepwalker a Iko (ale na tu si ještě chvíli počkám :D). Kromě tohoto mám já v TBR ještě Wait For Me od Caroline Leech. :)
