By Lília We're living in difficult times, and more and more people have been diagnosed with burnout. Not only because we've been working harder than ever, but also because life is more hectic. We have too much exposure to everything that goes around in the world, such as social media, gaming, [...]
by Lília March had many interesting bestsellers. Rachel Reid is still the reigning champ with Heated Rivalry and The Long Game. Meanwhile, Piranesi by Susanna Clarke, the classic White Nights by Fyodor Dostoyevsky, and the amazing Dictionary of Color Combinations* keep popping up as bestsellers. Dungeon Crawler Carl by Matt Dinniman, [...]
by Júlia Spring is always a special time for our ABC family. As the days get longer and the world starts to bloom again, we find ourselves in full celebration mode. This season isn’t just about fresh starts — it’s party time for us. In April, we’re celebrating the birthdays [...]
