Laurie, a plucky young writer, gets his big break interviewing hearthrob chef Oryan Adjei. Laurie has idolized Oryan since watching him in the Great British Kitchen Trials on television, back when they were both teens. However, Oryan's life is lonelier than it seems from the outside, and his career has taken a direction he isn't sure he wants to continue. Laurie seems to get Oryan in a way few others do. Despite their attempts to keep things professional, the two begin to bond over cheesesteaks, flat whites, and stolen hors d'oeuvres. Can Laurie overcome his self-doubt and anxious head while navigating the attention Oryan receives? Mutual feelings grow, but the pair find themselves in a pressure cooker of celebrity and scandal that threatens their chance at romance. Based on the hit webcomic Hungry Heart is a sweet, queer rom-com that explores self-discovery, identity, and acceptance. (immagine) Categoria: Books: graphic novels

How Comics Are Made covers the entire history of newspaper comics from a unique angle-how they were made and printed. This book combines years of research and dozens of interviews with cartoonists, historians, and production people to tell the story of how a comic starts with an artist's hand and makes it way through transformations into print and onto a digital screen. You'll see reproductions of art and artifacts that have never appeared in print anywhere, and some historic comics will appear for the first time ever in any medium in this book. And you'll find out about metal etching, Dragon's Blood (a real thing), flong (also a real thing), and the massively, almost impossibly complicated path that original artwork took to get onto newsprint in the days of metal relief printing. Foreword by bestselling author Michael Chabon. (immagine) Categoria: Books: novel/sci fi/horror

Shackleton's School for Seekers is a haven for students as diverse as the magical gifts they possess. But as the new class of Seekers soon learn, the ability to hear voices from the past or sense an object's history can lead to great knowledge... and even greater danger. When Fern, Jordan, and Zack are selected for a mysterious class trip with Shackleton's fearless Dr. Adichie, they've only just begun to explore the limits of their powers. It's clear their teacher knows more than she's letting on about the kids' gifts-and the dangers they'll be facing. But when an unexpected accident separates the trio from their instructor and leaves them stranded on an uncharted island, they'll have to learn to rely on each other to survive the hostile environment and the Seekers' equally hostile rivals, the Keepers.
