Parallel

A Laurelville college dropout and aspiring model, Sonja swore off men and dating apps, and especially men on dating apps…until she met Jonas.

A straight-A student and prospective counselor, Jonas had no time for dating and women…until he met Sonja.

They spent three hundred hours, ninety days, three months, in the talking phase—and now they’re finally ready to meet in person.

A first date at their local favorite café Out of This World sounds perfect—but when Sonja shows up at the decided time and day, she finds Jonas missing from the café. Did they get their wires crossed? Was it a different location? Or worse…did he just not show up?

Little does she know, Jonas is experiencing a similar fate at his local Laurelville café.

The two assume they’ve been stood up, and although it may be the trend of the times, it hurts nonetheless. However, a quick video call turns their despair into confusion. As Jonas shows he is indeed in the café, so does Sonja…so who’s in the wrong? If it’s the same time, date and place…what’s different?

Are there forces beyond their understanding lurking in their universe, wreaking havoc on their dating life? And are they the only ones affected?

How AI Ate The World

Artificial intelligence will shake up life in the 2020s as dramatically as the internet did in the 2000s.

This accessible, up-to-date book charts Al’s rise from its origins in the Cold War to its increasing impact on us today and in the coming years. Journalist Chris Stokel-Walker (TikTok Boom and YouTubers) meets the Silicon Valley innovators making rapid advances in ‘large language models’ of machine learning like Google’s Bard and ChatGPT and reveals the extraordinary plans they have for them.

And he explores the dark side of Al by talking to workers who have lost their jobs to chatbots and to futurologists worried that we are unwittingly creating a force that could destroy humankind.

How Al Ate the World answers all the key questions, such as how Al will transform the way we live and work; the professions that will ultimately win and lose; and whether the likes of Elon Musk are right to warn about a looming threat to humanity. This is a pithy ‘start here’ guide for anyone who wants to know more about the next big technology that will govern our lives, whether we like it or not.

Chloe Cameron’s Guide to Accidentally Dating a Rockstar

Chloe Cameron lived every fangirl’s dream the night she went back to Luke Waters’ hotel room. A one-night-stand with a world-famous rockstar is the one wild thing she’s ever done—the one juicy story she can tell when she and her friends are gossiping. But that one-night-stand turns her world upside down when she ends up in a pharmacy parking lot, three weeks later, with a positive pregnancy test in her hands.

When Chloe finally manages to tell Luke about the baby she’s more than surprised to hear that he wants to be in the baby’s life. The next thing she knows, she’s following him and his band on tour so the two of them can get to know each other and figure out this soon-to-be-parents thing together. And to do that, they both agree that they need to ignore the undeniable chemistry between them.

Everyone says it’s a bad idea, says she’s going to get her heart broken. History would indicate the same, but Chloe is determined to prove them wrong—she can totally be platonic co-parents with Luke. If she doesn’t give him her heart, then he can’t break it.

As the weeks go by though, it may be harder than Chloe thinks to keep herself from falling for the handsome, sexy, and surprisingly thoughtful Luke Waters, who wears his heart on his tattooed sleeve.

A toe-curling drama and romance wrapped up with witty banter, Chloe Cameron’s Guide to Accidentally Dating a Rockstar will make you laugh, weep, gasp and keep turning the pages until there are none left!
