1/ Books to read. Better – Damn
Why read it
«He is the cure for all my ills, but, at the same time, it is the evil that annihilates all cures. Blast and damnation. Roses and thorns. How do you manage such a conflict?”
For Thomas and Vanessa, loving each other has never been easy. Their story is always poised between ecstasy and damnation, suspended in an unstable equilibrium. A starry sky to contemplate or a tree house in which to take refuge are not enough, the feeling that binds them lives on burning nights and fierce jealousy, sparks of romance and misunderstandings that seem insurmountable.
After having risked getting lost, however, things seem to have finally started to turn in the right direction. For the first time, Thomas agrees to show himself vulnerable and reveals to Vanessa which ghosts are haunting him. In fact, in his past there is a tear, a tragedy that made him the lump of anger and pain he is today, a broken soul unable to bond. Yet not even this newfound closeness seems to be enough, because the suffering that grips him is too deep.
Carrie Leighton is a young Italian writer under a pseudonym. Passionate reader of romance fiction, she made her debut as an author on the Wattpad platform, earning the affection of a huge community. When she’s not writing, she loves watching tv series. He has already published with Magazzini Salani Better. Collision.

4/ Books to read. The game music
Why read it
The game music it’s a music-themed activity book by the artist most loved by Italian children. After the fairy tales that make up the book The roundabout of the seasons, released in November 2022, Carolina Benvenga, the face most loved by Italian families which accompanies parents and children with its fun and educational songs, presents a colorful activity book for spring 2023, intended for children aged four to six.
The main theme is music, in line with his television and web activity (on his YouTube channel): the notes represent seven thematic areas, which become containers of activities to be carried out both on the page and in the real world, outside the front door. The ideas are different: there may be songs to sing, “yoga” for children, recipes, games to play together at home on rainy afternoons, dance steps to learn, do-it-yourself musical instruments to make music with in the family. All in the name of happiness, to learn, to share, to express together.
