„Intermezzo” by Sally Rooney
Only in Poland, nearly 34,000 books were published last year. Add to that the books published in other countries (and languages – because Polish readers reach for those too).

“Rest Easy” – has Ximena Vengoechea revealed in her book a way to rest effectively?
Most of us suffer from a lack of time. Although this is a huge mental shortcut. We simply have too many things on our to-do lists, too many interests, and we sleep „too much.” And we often can’t rest „effectively.” On the one hand, we’re aware of how important rest is to have the energy Read More

Pedro Almodóvar, „The Room Next Door”
None of the films by Pedro Almodóvar, the Spanish director and producer, has gone unnoticed. Not only because of the director’s name, which is already a brand itself. When we hear „Almodóvar”, we imagine Pedro himself, a specific frame from his films or actors and actresses who appeared in his productions, often for the first Read More
When a book surprises you… :) „O szyciu. Prosto, kreatywnie i modnie” by Jan Leśniak
