Parenting teens is not for the faint of heart but Madeline, Jane and Celeste have been through worse. It's been a decade since the school trivia night that changed their lives forever and now they're living blissfully ordinary suburban lives. But when an anonymous grisly package arrives at the local high school, and a man in a green Volvo is seen lurking around the kids, everyone in their beautiful beachside community is uneasy. Is this history repeating itself or something new and more shocking? Can you ever truly outrun the mistakes of your past? What big little truths are about to be revealed? Once again, Liane Moriarty examines the complexities of modern women's lives, shining light on shame and family secrets with wit and compassion. 'Equal parts juicy, gripping, and impossible to put down . . . I loved diving back into the lives of these unforgettable characters.' - FREIDA McFADDEN, #1 New York Times bestselling author of The Housemaid 'What a gossipy, dazzling pleasure it is to be in Liane Moriarty's mind!' - RUFI THORPE, author of Margo's Got Money Troubles 'Warm, funny, shocking, and twisting.

|
SHORTLISTED FOR THE AUREALIS AWARD FOR BEST HORROR NOVEL 2025 'An electrifying and well-crafted Gothic thriller' THE AUSTRALIAN From a startling new Australian talent, The Farm ripples with the Gothic undertones of Rebecca and enthrals from the very first page. The radio sputters out and the cows disappear... It is suddenly deeply quiet, with the bird calls and crunch of rolling tyres the only sounds. I twist slowly to look out the back window; the gate can no longer be seen. When 37-year-old Leila suffers a health tragedy, she doesn't recover as quickly as she expected. Her partner, James , suggests a year away from the city - they'll stay on his family farm, where the wide, open spaces and clean country air will help her come to terms with her grief. But the property is remote and the house oppressive. Leila is disturbed by strange noises, fleeting visions and intrusive dreams. James worries that her medication is causing hallucinations. As Leila's isolation grows amid the haunted landscape, so does her suspicion that she isn't the first woman James has relocated to the farm. Is what she's experiencing real? Or is it all in her head? Compulsive and claustrophobic, The Farm is a psychological thriller ripe for book club discussion. It asks confronting questions about women's bodies, what is expected of them, and who is really in control. And in Jessica Mansour-Nahra, Australia has a stunning new talent. 'Immersive, urgent, hair-raising... A towering achievement, it demands to be read in one sitting' COURIER-MAIL 'If you've read anything in the Gothic tradition - particularly Jane Eyre and Rebecca - you'll be coming into this book forewarned... Compelling' THE GUARDIAN 'Deeply chilling - made all the more unsettling by its vivid, visual writing' GOOD READING MAGAZINE 'The kind of slow-building, hair-raising saga that makes you want to flick back to the start and scour the pages for any clues you might have missed... Keeps readers guessing right until its thrilling end' ARTSHUB 'The setting is so deliciously vivid, the characters nuanced and complex, and the storyline nothing short of bone-chilling' ALI LOWE 'Captivating... Fertile in its domestic horrors and the hidden traumas of motherhood' SIANG LU 'A masterclass in creating narrative tension' TESS WOODS 'Gripping and enthralling... I devoured this story in just one day' KELLY RIMMER 'A compelling read that will appeal to fans of slow-burn suspense and character-driven contemporary fiction, such as works by Jane Harper' BOOKS+PUBLISHING |

But what Stewart asks of Dolly ends up being more than either of them bargained for.

Which is why Olive is positively floored when Stanford's reigning lab tyrant agrees to keep her charade a secret and be her fake boyfriend. But when a big science conference goes haywire, putting Olive's career on the Bunsen burner, Adam surprises her again with his unyielding support and even more unyielding...six-pack abs. Suddenly their little experiment feels dangerously close to combustion.

One is Caesar’s 17-year-old nephew, Octavius, whom he has made his heir. The other is Octavius’s closest friend, Agrippa. To claim Octavius’s inheritance, they must fight the giant figures of the Roman Empire – and, against all odds, they win. Octavius becomes the Emperor Augustus.

In Jane Austen’s Pride and Prejudice , Mary is the middle of the five Bennet girls and the plainest of them all, so what hope does she have? Prim and pious, with no redeeming features, she is unloved and seemingly unlovable. The Other Bennet Sister , though, shows another side to Mary. An introvert in a family of extroverts; a constant disappointment to her mother who values beauty above all else; fearful of her father’s sharp tongue; with little in common with her siblings - is it any wonder she turns to books for both company and guidance? And, if she finds her life lonely or lacking, that she determines to try harder at the one thing she can be: right. One by one, her sisters marry - Jane and Lizzy for love; Lydia for some semblance of respectability - but Mary, it seems, is destined to remain single and live out her life at Longbourn, at least until her father dies and the house is bequeathed to the reviled Mr Collins. But when that fateful day finally comes, she slowly discovers that perhaps there is hope for her, after all. Simultaneously a wonderfully warm homage to Jane Austen and a delightful new story in its own right, Janice Hadlow's The Other Bennet Sister is, at its heart, a life-affirming tale of a young woman finding her place in the world. Witty and uplifting, it will make you feel - and cheer - for Mary as you never have before. |

Now, as the door clangs shuts behind her – with her captor’s promise ringing in her ears that she’s ‘his’ forever – she realises that nowhere before has been as dark as her attic cell.

42. Sophie, Standing There - Meg Mason
|

|
From the award-winning, bestselling author of Sorrow and Bliss comes an achingly tender, poignant, funny and bittersweet story of love, loneliness and finding connection in the most unlikely of places. 'So smart, so funny, so moving – Mason has done it again, this time using behind the scenes of a literary festival to reveal the complexity of loneliness and how one woman attempts to dig herself out. I absolutely loved it' Bonnie Garmus, author of Lessons in Chemistry Sophie Pattison is such a lovely person. Warm, kind, amazingly positive. She works as a freelance sound technician for literary festivals. She is a massive reader and was recently forced to move house. She is bracingly lonely.* So much so, the absence of others feels like a physical weight, if that makes sense. But then Sophie discovers an author through work, and comes to adore her. Her books, interviews and podcasts, her wisdom and brilliance, her beautiful words. It's like solace and company. It's almost like love. And Sophie would love to meet her, although she never will, obviously. The author would never come to her festival. She's too famous for that. Too brilliant, too beautiful. And in a way, thank goodness, because that would change everything. Sophie's entire life. But ... what if she did? * although she has a best friend called Emma, and an amazing brother. And a husband. But a number of things happened there. Praise for Sophie, Standing There 'A moving examination of what it means to be alone in the world, and what it means to find connection. It is, by turns, heartbreaking, hilarious and deeply hopeful. Meg Mason is a dazzling talent' Ann Patchett, author of Tom Lake 'Sophie, Standing There unfolds like a strange origami crane in reverse – so achingly tender and so brilliantly subtle that I could never put it down. The loneliness of our inner world and the quiet movement towards connection – nobody evokes it as breathtakingly as Meg Mason. And by it, I guess I mean simply being a person. Dazzling' Catherine Newman, author of Wreck 'I feel like I know Meg Mason's characters; they are relatable enough to be universal, but always have that edge or quirk that makes them unexpected - and completely compelling. Anyone who can make me sigh wistfully and snort with laughter in the same paragraph has my literary loyalty for life.' Jo Jo Moyes 'Massively sad, hilariously funny and so epigrammatic that after writing down the novel's pithily astute phrases, I realised I was almost writing out the whole book' Barbara Trapido, Brother of the More Famous Jack 'Heartwarming, tender and so funny, Sophie, Standing There is a wonderful, bittersweet story of what it means to be truly, achingly lonely. I loved it' Gillian Anderson, Want 'The lucky reader of Sophie, Standing There peers at the world through Sophie's eyes, and wonders how her life shaped this view. When the answers are revealed, we experience a kind of wholeness with her. Or at least the possibility of wholeness. I loved Sophie, and I love Meg Mason's brain and the strange, wonderful, funny stories she gives us' Ann Napolitano, author of Hello Beautiful 'I feel like I know Meg Mason's characters; they are relatable enough to be universal, but always have that edge or quirk that makes them unexpected - and completely compelling. Anyone who can make me sigh wistfully and snort with laughter in the same paragraph has my literary loyalty for life.' Jojo Moyes, We All Live Here 'Truly inspired and original' Esther Freud, My Sister and Other Lovers 'Mason's third novel, centered on an endearingly self-doubting woman, is filled with wry insights into the backstage world of book festivals and their famous authors. It is a special treat for book lovers.' Library Journal starred review 'The novel is precise and devastating and keenly observational in the vein of Sally Rooney's Normal People, Rachel Joyce's The Unlikely Pilgrimage of Harold Fry, and Taffy Brodesser-Akner's Fleishman Is in Trouble.

Step into a world of hot hockey players, feisty heroines and steamy romance in this addictive spin-off from the bestselling Off-Campus! Read The Chase for the perfect brother's best friend romance! She's the one girl he shouldn't want . . . Everyone says opposites attract. And they must be right, because there's no logical reason why I'm so drawn to Colin Fitzgerald. I don't usually go for tattoo-covered, video-gaming, hockey-playing nerd-jocks who think I'm flighty and superficial. His narrow view of me is the first strike against him. It doesn't help that he's buddy-buddy with my brother. And that his best friend has a crush on me. And that I just moved in with them. Oh, did I not mention we're roommates? I suppose it doesn't matter. Fitzy has made it clear he's not interested in me, even though the sparks between us are liable to burn our house down. I'm not the kind of girl who chases after a man, though, and I'm not about to start. I've got my hands full dealing with a new school, a sleazy professor, and an uncertain future. So if my sexy brooding roomie wises up and realizes what he's missing? He knows where to find me. *** Why fans love Elle Kennedy ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐! 'Delicious, complicated and drama-filled . . .

82. This Is Me - Hayden Panettiere
|
|||
|
'Hayden Panettiere holds nothing back: From child stardom to crushing loss, this is her truth' US Weekly 'There's no easy way to share your story with the world, but I'm an optimist to the core and refuse to be defined by my tragedies. Life can shake you up and tear you down, but even when you're at your worst, there's hope, and you have an opportunity to rebuild.' Heroes and Nashville star Hayden Panettiere reclaims her story in a remarkably candid memoir. Hayden Panettiere's career in entertainment began before she was old enough to walk. From early commercials to film and television roles in hits like Remember the Titans , her career unfolded in the public eye resulting in tremendous success by her early teens. She had become a fixture of early-2000s pop culture, earning acclaim for performances in Heroes , Nashville (which earned her two Golden Globe nominations) and beyond-while quietly carrying the weight of expectations that came with being Hollywood's "It girl." Behind the image was a far more complicated reality. As Hayden entered adulthood, the industry that once felt playful grew unforgiving. The pressure placed on young performers, the hefty price that often comes with fame, and how quickly someone else can take control of your story. She recounts being scrutinized by tabloids, watching her body and private pain become public property, and performing storylines on-screen that echoed trauma she was living through off camera. In this memoir, Hayden shares a rare and intimate glimpse into her life behind closed doors opening up about postpartum depression, addiction and recovery, trauma, domestic abuse, and loss. She holds nothing back as she reflects on the moments she calls "lifequakes"- experiences that fractured her sense of self and forced her to rebuild it from the inside out. This is her story on her terms. |

85. Happy Endings - Bella Green
|
|||
|
Bella Green is a Sunday-afternoon sex worker. Divorced dads, IT nerds, international students - she's here for the idiosyncrasies of human behaviour, for soothing the lonely. But really for the cash. From an entrepreneurial kid to a young woman trying to find herself (and desperate to stay out of call centres), Bella started sex work for the glamour and the taboo. Instead, she found her place in this surprisingly mundane and often entertaining industry, where the hierarchy is strict, the names are fake, and spare towels always come in handy. Taking us on a funny, candid, can't-look-away journey through brothels, strip clubs, peep shows and dominatrix dungeons, Happy Endings is a hilarious and compelling memoir from a bright and bold new Australian voice. Praise for Bella Green 'Authentic, hilarious, and uplifting.' WeekendNotes 'No holds barred ... Smart as a whip ... Green's the real deal who wants everyone to get their happy ending.' The Advertiser ( Adelaide) 'A brilliant stand-up comedian.' Wil Anderson 'The voice modern comedy needs.' DeAnne Smith |

Lizbeth:  There's one thing I'm absolutely convinced of: romance is real, and true love is a force for good in the world.  I have 957 paperback romance novels in my attic bedroom that prove it.  When my world crashes down around me and JJ Bailey shows up, he lays down the ultimate challenge: prove romance is real. The fact that JJ thinks romance is a farce only makes me more determined to prove him wrong.  Romance is real and love saves the day. Hold my spreadsheets.  JJ: Life has gotten kind of stagnant. Then Lizbeth literally crashes into my world with her ideas of storybook romance and love. Her silky red hair drives me to distraction. What the hell is a meet-cute anyway? Romance does not save the world. I've been there. Failed at that. My parents divorce has convinced me that not even love can survive real life. Perpetual bachelorhood looks pretty safe to me.  Except Lizbeth is determined to help me see the light of love. I'm not about to let her win our little challenge, because I know the truth. Forget her books. I'll show her that romance is a construct, and love hurts. LOVESICK is the second novel in the Coffee Shop series. This is a clean, standalone (second in series) contemporary romance with sizzle and spice—but no sex scenes. Guaranteed bantering and happily ever after. |

94. Finding Forever - Leeanna Morgan
|

|
When the greatest thing we can build isn’t made of timber and steel. It’s the courage to believe we deserve something beautiful. Beth Kowalski has spent the last decade being everything everyone else needed her to be. A devoted mother. A reliable friend. The woman who shows up with brownies when things go wrong and stays until they go right. When a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity lands in her lap — managing Sapphire Bay’s new community arts center — Beth’s first instinct is to talk herself out of it. She’s not qualified enough. Not experienced enough. Not enough, full stop. Dave McGuire has built half of Flathead County with his hands and his word. He doesn’t waste time on things that don’t matter, and he doesn’t say things he doesn’t mean. When he tells Beth she’s exactly the right person for the job, she’s certain he’s wrong. He’s equally certain she’s the most capable — and most stubborn — woman he’s ever met. As the arts center takes shape and Sapphire Bay rallies around something new, Beth and Dave find themselves circling each other in the way of two people who recognize something in the other they weren’t expecting to find. But Beth has built a careful life since Jessie died, and careful lives don’t leave much room for the unexpected. Finding Forever is a warm, tender story about second chances, quiet bravery, and the people who see us more clearly than we see ourselves. |

97. Life of M - Rachel Cusk
|

|
** AVAILABLE FOR PRE-ORDER NOW ** An irresistible novel of fame, power, beauty and truth -- 'Truly masterful, her best work so far. I loved it' Vincenzo Latronico A little while ago, I told the actor M that I was thinking of writing her autobiography. She liked the idea. She's a good sport. Would you just make it up? she said. M is a film star, and one of the most recognisable faces of our time. With such fame, her life has the appearance of freedom: people are instantly obliging, spaces are altered to accommodate her, time can be rearranged. For her, it seems, the rules of reality have melted away. Now M has agreed to let a stranger write her biography. Their project will sprawl and expand: to the olive groves and holiday beaches where M spends her days; across hotel rooms, bourgeois facades, film sets; through endless modern cities. It is hard not to feel ugly next to M, hard not to feel insignificant. But what truths - about the very experience of living - might this proximity allow the writer to briefly capture? And what in the end will M make of their work? In Life of M , Rachel Cusk has again fashioned a new kind of literature. A novel stripped of artifice, it takes our emptiness and fills it with grace. 'Electrifying . . . a deeply enjoyable addition to Cusk's canon concerning brilliant and divided women' Megan Nolan, Observer '[Cusk] is a disciple of the truth, and she helps us to see' Lucy Jones, Independent 'Roll up, wave a flag and join the crowds to watch Rachel Cusk continue her relentless march through life' Irish Times |
