The Love Hypothesis
Ali Hazelwood · 2021
The Instant New York Times Bestseller and TikTok Sensation! As seen on THE VIEW! A BuzzFeed Best Summer Read of 2021 When a fake relationship between scientists meets the irresistible force of attraction, it throws one woman's carefully calculated theories on love into chaos. As a third-year Ph.D. candidate, Olive Smith doesn't believe in lasting romantic relationships—but her best friend does, and that's what got her into this situation. Convincing Anh that Olive is dating and well on her way to a happily ever after was always going to take more than hand-wavy Jedi mind tricks: Scientists require proof. So, like any self-respecting biologist, Olive panics and kisses the first man she sees. That man is none other than Adam Carlsen, a young hotshot professor—and well-known ass. Which is why Olive is positively floored when Stanford's reigning lab tyrant agrees to keep her charade a secret and be her fake boyfriend. But when a big science conference goes haywire, putting Olive's career on the Bunsen burner, Adam surprises her again with his unyielding support and even more unyielding...six-pack abs. Suddenly their little experiment feels dangerously close to combustion. And Olive discovers that the only thing more complicated than a hypothesis on love is putting her own heart under the microscope.

Sucedió un verano
Tessa Bailey • 2022
Piper Bellinger es una influyente del mundo de la moda y su reputación de alocada hace que la persigan los <i>paparazzi</i>. Tras acabar en el calabozo por organizar una fiesta ilegal con demasiado champán en la azotea de un hotel, su padrastro decide que esa es la gota que colma el vaso. De modo que la deja sin dinero y para que aprenda lo que es la responsabilidad, la envía… al estado de Washington, donde acabará regentando el bar de su difunto padre junto con su hermana.Piper no lleva ni cinco minutos en Westport cuando conoce a Brendan, un corpulento y barbudo capitán de barco, que cree que no durará ni una semana lejos de Beverly Hills. ¿Qué pasa si es una negada con las matemáticas y si la idea de dormir en un piso cochambroso con literas le da escalofríos? Tan malo no puede ser, ¿verdad? Está decidida a demostrarle a su padrastro, y también a ese capitán de barco tan guapo y gruñón, que es más que una cara bonita.El problema es que está en un pueblo pequeño y se cruza con Brendan cada dos por tres. La extrovertida reina de las fiestas y el pescador gruñón son polos opuestos, pero la química que surge entre ellos es innegable. Piper no quiere distracciones, ni mucho menos sentir algo por un hombre que se pasa semanas faenando en el mar. Sin embargo, a medida que reconecta con su pasado y empieza a sentirse como en casa en Westport, empieza a plantearse si la fría y glamurosa vida que ha llevado hasta el momento es la que desea de verdad. Aunque siente la llamada de Los Ángeles, tal vez Brendan y ese pueblo lleno de recuerdos hayan conquistado su corazón.
Romance
Romeo y Julieta
William Shakespeare
Product Description<br/><br/>La traducción nerudiana de Romeo y Julieta, un encargo del Instituto de Teatro de la Universidad de Chile de 1964, en el marco de los actos de celebración del 400 aniversario del nacimiento de dramaturgo. La labor le interesó y le ocupó mucho tiempo y dedicación, según sus propias palabras: En los últimos meses de este año, me dieron el encargo de traducir Romeo y Julieta. Tomé esta petición con humildad. Con humildad y por deber, porque me sentí incapaz de volcar al idioma español, la historia apasionada de aquel amor. Pero tenía que hacerlo, puesto que este es el gran año de reverencia universal. De aquí surgiría la excelente versión que recogemos en esta edición. Una versión poética y libre de una de las voces más destacadas de la poesía en lengua española de nuestro tiempo que se volcó, a su vez, en quien consideraba “el poeta que dio nuevos universos al hombre”.<br/><br/>About the Author<br/><br/>William Shakespeare (1564-1616) nació en Stratford-upon-Avon (Inglaterra) y antes de cumplir la veintena, había contraído matrimonio con Anne Hathaway y había sido padre de tres hijos: Susanna, Hamnet y Judith. Pero en 1591 dejó atrás a su familia para trasladarse a Londres y comenzar allí la carrera que lo convertiría en uno de los mayores dramaturgos del mundo. Pocos detalles se conocen de sus años de formación, en los que estrenaría sus primeras obras: La comedia de los enredos, Los dos hidalgos de Verona o Trabajos de amor perdidos (1591-1592). En 1594 obtendría una participación en la gestión de un teatro y daría inicio a la larga lista de sus grandes obras: comedias como El sueño de una noche de verano o El mercader de Venecia y tragedias como Romeo y Julieta se sitúan hacia 1595. Con el cambio de siglo verían la luz Hamlet, Otelo, Macbeth, El rey Lear… hasta cuarenta títulos que hoy se cuentan entre los más leídos, representados y estudiados en cualquier idioma. Solo hacia 1610, el dramaturgo se retiró a su localidad natal, en donde falleció el 23 de abril de 1616.<br/><br/>Pablo Neruda (1904-1973), seudónimo de Ricardo Reyes, nació en Parral, creció en Temuco y estudió pedagogía en Santiago de Chile, donde comenzó a publicar sus primeros libros. Sobre todo, Veinte poemas de amor y una canción desesperada (1924), una de sus obras más célebres y que lo lanzaría a la fama con apenas diecinueve años. En 1927 inició una carrera diplomática que le llevó a viajar por todo el mundo, a conocer a personalidades como Federico García Lorca y situaciones comprometidas como la Guerra Civil española que le llevaron a un mayor compromiso social y un profundo cambio en su poesía, plasmado en Residencia en la tierra. Tras regresar a Chile, en 1952, publicaría Los versos del Capitán, Las uvas y el viento y Odas elementales, y comenzaría la escritura de sus memorias Confieso que he vivido.

It Ends with Us
Colleen Hoover · 2024
SOON TO BE A MAJOR MOTION PICTURE STARRING BLAKE LIVELY AND JUSTIN BALDONI! From the #1 New York Times bestselling author of It Starts with Us and All Your Perfects, a “brave and heartbreaking novel that digs its claws into you and doesn’t let go, long after you’ve finished it” (Anna Todd, New York Times bestselling author) about a workaholic with a too-good-to-be-true romance who can’t stop thinking about her first love. Lily hasn’t always had it easy, but that’s never stopped her from working hard for the life she wants. She’s come a long way from the small town where she grew up—she graduated from college, moved to Boston, and started her own business. And when she feels a spark with a gorgeous neurosurgeon named Ryle Kincaid, everything in Lily’s life seems too good to be true. Ryle is assertive, stubborn, maybe even a little arrogant. He’s also sensitive, brilliant, and has a total soft spot for Lily. And the way he looks in scrubs certainly doesn’t hurt. Lily can’t get him out of her head. But Ryle’s complete aversion to relationships is disturbing. Even as Lily finds herself becoming the exception to his “no dating” rule, she can’t help but wonder what made him that way in the first place. As questions about her new relationship overwhelm her, so do thoughts of Atlas Corrigan—her first love and a link to the past she left behind. He was her kindred spirit, her protector. When Atlas suddenly reappears, everything Lily has built with Ryle is threatened. An honest, evocative, and tender novel, It Ends with Us is “a glorious and touching read, a forever keeper. The kind of book that gets handed down” (USA TODAY).
