You Got This is filled with 100 delicious pantry-staple meals that anyone can rely on to feed their family and friends--or just themselves. Some are classics with a twist, and some are pumped up with a little more flair but no fuss. Whether you cook daily or rarely, these dishes will remind you: cooking doesn't have to be complicated
Hana Babic, a quiet librarian in Minnesota, wants nothing more than to live in peace. But when her best friend is murdered, Hana realizes her violent past has caught up with her. Thirty years ago, she was Nura Divjak, a teenage survivor of the Bosnian War who became the feared militia fighter known as the Night Mora. Forced to flee to the U.S., she buried her old life—until now. With her friend's young grandson in her care and a killer hunting her, Hana must once again embrace the Night Mora to protect them both.
After defeating the Demon King, elf mage Frieren faces a new journey—learning what it truly means to live and connect with others. As she outlives her former companions, Frieren continues her travels north, seeking a first-class mage certification in the magical city of Äußerst. Along the way, she’s joined by Sein, a village priest searching for a lost friend, and Fern, who also decides to take the certification exam. Their journey is filled with new challenges, unexpected competition, and deeper lessons about friendship, purpose, and the fleeting nature of human life.
