Have you ever wondered why that 13-digit number on the back of a book costs $125 in the United States but is completely free in Canada and India? This book, The Global ISBN Handbook, is your 2025 guide to the International Standard Book Number. It explains everything about this global "fingerprint" for books. The ISBN is the most important cornerstone of the publishing industry. It started as a simple warehouse tool in the 1960s. Now, it is a complex digital identifier used in over 200 countries. This handbook deconstructs the entire system. It uses 15 distinct national case studies to do this. You will learn how the old 10-digit system changed to the new 13-digit one. We break down the five parts of the ISBN, from the "Bookland" prefix to the final check digit. The book explores the global governance framework, starting with the International ISBN Agency. Then, it dives deep into how different countries run their systems. You'll see the privatized, high-cost model in the United States. You'll compare it to Canada's free, government-run system. We explore the industry-led models in Brazil and Germany. We look at government-run systems in Mexico and India. We even cover the unique case of China, where the ISBN is not a simple identifier but a state-controlled publication license. The book also examines the systems in the UK , France , Russia , Japan , Australia , South Africa , Nigeria , and Egypt. Many books and websites can tell you how to get an ISBN. This handbook is the only resource that explains why the process is so different everywhere you look. It moves beyond a simple "how-to" and provides a true global analysis. It directly compares the privatized, for-profit models in the US and UK against the free, public-good systems in Canada and South Africa. You won't just learn the price; you will understand the cultural policies, market structures, and legal philosophies that shape that price. This book shows how the ISBN is a "global mirror". It reveals how a simple number can be a commercial product in one nation , a tool of cultural policy in another , and an instrument of state control in a third. This comparative insight is the missing piece for any author, publisher, or researcher trying to navigate the complex international publishing market. Disclaimer: This handbook is an independently produced resource for commentary and analysis. The author has no affiliation with the International ISBN Agency, R.R. Bowker, Library and Archives Canada, the National Press and Publication Administration, or any other national ISBN agency.

A doceria mágica da Rua do Anoitecer
Hiyoko Kurisu • 2025
A doceria mágica da Rua do Anoitecer é um convite à magia e à doçura que existem na vida de todos nós. Entre e fique à vontade – mas esteja preparado para descobrir muito mais do que imagina. Situada na fronteira entre o mundo real e o mundo dos espíritos, a Rua do Anoitecer só pode ser vista por criaturas sobrenaturais ou por pessoas que se encontram vulneráveis devido a alguma angústia. No fim dessa estranha rua, a Doceria Mágica Âmbar é a única loja aberta, e vez por outra acaba sendo encontrada por um humano perdido. O proprietário – um jovem de grande beleza, olhos dourados e... serão orelhas de raposa? – vende confeitos com poderes mágicos, capazes de promover mudanças sutis na vida de quem os compra. Poderia uma simples bala atrair coisas boas ao longo do dia? Seria possível um doce tornar alguém invisível? E uma maçã do amor poderia nos fazer enxergar o que as pessoas sentem de verdade?

Walk Like a Girl
Prabal Gurung • 2025
From acclaimed fashion designer Prabal Gurung comes a captivating, courageous literary memoir, a testament to the transformative power of creativity, and a celebration of the power of femininity and individuality Walk Like a Girl is the story of a queer boy who yearned for a world beyond the confines of prejudice he experienced growing up in Nepal and India. He came to New York, a hopeful immigrant lured by the siren song of the American Dream, only to encounter pernicious discrimination as he rose within the glossy world of New York high society and high fashion. Chronicling his rise to success as a fashion designer, Prabal reveals the inner workings of this beautiful, treacherous, rarefied world—and what it takes to survive. With brutal honesty, Prabal takes us on a journey from Nepal to New York, and from the harrowing experiences that shaped him to his inspiring, hard-won ascent to the designer he is today, dressing American icons like Oprah Winfrey, Michelle Obama, and Kamala Harris. Walk Like a Girl is also an ode to Prabal’s mother, Durga Rana, whose unwavering love and support gave him the courage to be unapologetically himself. To understand that the things people wanted to shame out of him were, paradoxically, his superpowers. A defiant anthem for the soul, Walk Like a Girl is an invitation to rewrite your story. To shatter the mold into which society has tried to cast you. When we learn to embrace the power of vulnerability, the beauty of imperfection, and the infinite possibilities within each of us, we begin to see the extraordinary power within ourselves, waiting to be unleashed.

E se a superação da dor levar mais tempo que o esperado? Afinal, cada um tem seu próprio tempo de prantear. Ayla Vasconcellos está em meio ao processo de esperar que as feridas se tornem cicatrizes quando, inesperadamente, ocorre o esbarrão. Os óculos voando outra vez. Seria apenas coincidência o fato de Joon Hyuk, aquele coreano de olhos angulares e voz melodiosa, estar ali à sua frente, naquele exato segundo, numa universidade na Coreia do Sul? Ou algo mais profundo aguardava aqueles dois jovens que pertenciam a culturas tão distintas e que, no entanto, pareciam dividir as mesmas dores e as mesmas esperanças?

Mil vezes amor
Lynn Painter • 2024
Na nova comédia romântica de Lynn Painter, autora do best-seller Melhor do que nos filmes, uma garota fica presa no pior Dia dos Namorados da sua vida<br/><br/>Emilie Hornby acredita no amor verdadeiro, mas é do tipo que se recusa a ficar sentada esperando o universo mandar sinais. Afinal, por que esperar ser atingida pela flecha do Cupido se ela mesma pode trilhar seu caminho até o “felizes para sempre”?<br/><br/>Por isso, a jovem decidiu planejar o Dia dos Namorados perfeito. Comprou um presente incrível e vai dizer “eu te amo” pela primeira vez para Joshua Sutton, seu namorado maravilhoso, o único garoto que preenche a maioria de seus requisitos. Só que o dia se revela um completo desastre...<br/><br/>Depois de bater na caminhonete de Nicholas Stark — seu irritante, sarcástico e charmoso colega de classe —, perder a bolsa de estudos do tão sonhado curso de verão, receber a notícia de que seu pai se mudará em breve e, para piorar, flagrar Josh beijando outra garota, Emilie só quer dormir e esquecer tudo. Mas, no dia seguinte, quando ela acorda, é Dia dos Namorados outra vez. Como em um pesadelo, o pior dia de sua vida passa a se repetir de novo e de novo. Todos os dias.<br/><br/>Desesperada, Emilie cria diversos planos para sair desse ciclo desastroso. Em cada nova tentativa, Nick Stark ressurge em seu caminho de diferentes maneiras, e, aos poucos, os dois se tornam amigos. Com a ajuda dele, Emilie vai viver como se (literalmente) não houvesse amanhã e descobrir que a vida pode ser bem mais divertida sem roteiro. Ideal para fãs de comédia romântica, o livro traz uma narrativa única, divertida e apaixonante repleta de referências memoráveis às músicas da Taylor Swift.

Amor em Roma (Em Portugues do Brasil)
Sarah Adams • 2019
Depois de anos alimentando sua imagem de “princesa do pop”, Amelia Rose, conhecida por sua legião de fãs como Rae Rose, está completamente esgotada. No auge do desespero, ela decide se inspirar na única pessoa que nunca a decepcionou: Audrey Hepburn. Seguindo os passos de A Princesa e o Plebeu, um de seus filmes favoritos protagonizados pela atriz, Amelia foge no meio da noite a caminho de Roma… no caso, a opção mais próxima ― uma cidadezinha chamada Roma no Kentucky.<br/><br/>Quando seu carro quebra na frente da casa de Noah Walker, o sujeito ranzinza e musculoso deixa claro que não tem tempo nem paciência para lidar com celebridades. Afinal, Noah tem que cuidar da loja de tortas que a avó deixou para ele, e ainda precisa ficar lembrando a seus vizinhos intrometidos, embora adoráveis, que cuidem da própria vida. Sem muita escolha, porém, ele acaba deixando que a cantora fique em seu quarto de hóspedes ― mas apenas até que consertem o carro dela, nem um dia a mais.<br/><br/>Só que, aos poucos, Noah começa a ver um lado doce, divertido e vulnerável de Amelia que não costuma estampar as manchetes, e vai cedendo ao instinto de compartilhar cada vez mais do seu mundo com ela. Enquanto ele e os outros moradores mostram à estrela do pop todo o charme que uma cidade pequena tem a oferecer, fica cada vez mais difícil para ela controlar seus sentimentos por aquele lugar aconchegante e seu anfitrião mal-humorado. O problema é que, no fim, até Audrey teve que ir embora de Roma em algum momento, e Amelia precisa enfrentar um dilema: seria possível escapar do próprio destino?
