Most Wanted
All Naya and Jake want is their own home. That's not too much to ask, right? 'Shot with dark humour … an unexpected but highly relatable story that captures the housing crisis in all its messiness' Stylist ‘A wildly original, darkly funny love story about desperation, house prices, and making terrible decisions together. Most Wanted is criminally good’ Steve Jones 'Most Wanted somehow makes the headache of first-time home ownership a gripping, pacy and funny story, loaded with twists and turns that keep you guessing right up to that gut punch ending. I loved it' Dawn O'Porter ***** All Naya and Jake want is their own home. An island in the kitchen. A wine cooler, maybe… Nothing fancy really. With artisanal coffee shops and microbreweries popping up on every corner, prices are skyrocketing. And as Jake and Naya tour property after property, one thing becomes clear: unless they want to share their home with black mould, they need to find a way to make the market crash. And fast. There’s only one thing for it: they're going to have to take matters into their own hands. But how far are they willing to go? ***** ‘Fresh, original and absolutely brimming with energy. One of the very best crime capers I’ve read in a LONG time’ Jonathan Whitelaw 'The protagonists' desperation for affordable housing is completely relatable for anyone who has tried to buy a house this century. This book was quick, funny, and captured the very real financial struggles of the moment' Tasha Coryell ‘A brilliantly funny and twisty thriller. As dark as it is hilarious, with relatable characters that you really care about, this book really delves into the dark world of gentrification and property while still being a wonderfully entertaining ride of a book’ Kate Weston ‘I tore through this hilarious, twisty and poignant story of two people desperate for a home of their own. It's a must read for anyone who's ever bought a property… or dreamt about doing so. A fabulous takedown of our national obsession with home ownership’ Lauren Schott 'A deliciously fresh take on the housing market, terrific fun' Ian Moore ‘Sharp, witty and deliciously dark’ Delia Online ‘This tale of the struggles of home-buying will resonate with many, even while she creates absurd yet believable situations for her protagonists’ Red 'With sharp humour, this twisty story explores home, grief, childhood influences and romantic connections, offering dual perspectives and fresh reflections on modern housing and relationships’ Woman’s Own
Isabella’s Not Dead
From the Sunday Times bestselling author, for anyone who's ever been ghosted – and wondered why… 'Unputdownable' Mel Giedroyc 'Beth is a really clever, funny writer' Nina Stibbe 'The queen of feel-good fiction' Clare Pooley 'Isabella's NOT dead.' Every time someone asks Gwen about her best friend – you know, the one who ghosted them all fifteen years ago – this is what Gwen tells them. But where is Isabella? Why did she leave, just when Gwen needed her the most? Setting out to solve the mystery, in an adventure that takes Gwen across the country then across Europe; that tests her friendships and strains her marriage, Gwen searches for Isabella. But Isabella's not the only one who's lost. Is Gwen also searching for… herself? 'Beth’s tightly-told tale sneaks up on you then completely grips you. Unputdownable' Mel Giedroyc, The Best Things 'Amusing, smart and compassionate, this is a fabulously relatable feel-good read about the mystery of a ghosted friendship’ Liz Robinson, LoveReading ‘A funny, fresh look at female friendship’ Fabulous magazine (The Sun)

Kchrat 4: Zapovězený skok
Dokáže šatchranský voják přežít na území odvěkého nepřítele?
Před dvanácti sty lety napadly šatchrany děsivé stvůry z druhé strany tajemné mlhoviny. A nechybělo mnoho, aby je téměř vyhladily. Od té doby se šatchranští vesmírní vojáci snaží zničit každou cizí loď, která záhadně překoná neprostupnou mlhovinu a zjeví se v jejich vesmírném prostoru.
Jednou na takového narušitele narazí i mladý a nezkušený Rašchet a bez zaváhání se s ním střetne. A selže.
Jenže nezemře. Díky milosrdenství podivné posádky tak může zahlédnout, co se za mlhovinou doopravdy skrývá. A vzápětí zjišťuje, že žádné tajemství se neprozrazuje zadarmo, stvůry mohou mít mnoho podob a nic se neděje náhodou.

Štafeta
Sedmnáctiletá Júko bydlí s nevlastním otcem Morimijou a vede naprosto spokojený život — nebo se to tak alespoň může na první pohled zdát. Od narození stihla vystřídat domov a příjmení hned čtyřikrát. Přestože se složení její rodiny několikrát změnilo, všichni rodiče ji zahrnovali láskou. Odnesla si od nich spoustu dobrého, ale některé šrámy se jen tak nezahojí. To jí připomene především rušný poslední ročník střední školy, v němž kromě učení na přijímací zkoušky dojde i na pár zvratů, které Júko donutí pořádně se zamyslet nad svými hodnotami, názory na přátelství a v neposlední řadě i nad tím, co jí dali a možná i vzali všichni její rodiče.
Nakonec Júko čeká i první velká láska a zakládání vlastní rodiny, které s sebou přinese ještě jednu výzvu před poslední změnou příjmení — přesvědčit Morimiju, aby jí a jejímu budoucímu manželovi dal svolení ke svatbě.

Body Count
Serial killer Saffy Huntley-Oliver's life is going great.
She's got a fabulous new boyfriend, Jonathan. She has literally got away with murder. And now that she's no longer single, she can get back to her favourite hobby: killing bad men.
Particularly Sir Thomas West, a children's TV star who truly deserves to die.
But there are a few little snags. For one, her beloved sister Susie is still dating that insufferable Finlay. For another, Sir Thomas has a very large bodyguard. And Jonathan himself has given up his job investigating true crime, despite all the tempting corpses that Saffy keeps putting in his way.
All of this would be easy to ignore in the flush of new love. Except Saffy's never been in love before, and it's weird. She's having difficulty separating romance from homicide. Especially when someone discovers Saffy's secret hobby and starts sending Jonathan coded messages about her crimes.
Is someone trying to break them up? Or trying to hunt her down?
Mouses Wood
Written in a gentle rhyme that reflects the slow pace of Mouse’s rambling journey, and illustrated in the inimitable style of Alice Melvin, Mouse’s Wood is a heart-warming celebration of slow living in nature.
The story follows Mouse, who first ventures out in wintry January to visit his friend Squirrel. Mouse moves on to wake up Hedgehog for the arrival of spring and as he continues along the path in the wood, Mouse’s journey from friend to friend maps out the changes in seasons from January through to December, from picnicking among the bluebells with Mole in May and picking berries with Dormouse in June, to taking refuge in Fox’s cozy caravan as winter draws in.
Noah Cant Even (NE)
Poor Noah Grimes! His father disappeared years ago, his mother's Beyonce tribute act is an unacceptable embarrassment, and his beloved gran is no longer herself. He only has one friend, Harry, and school is... Well, it's pure hell. Why can't Noah be normal, like everyone else at school?
Maybe if he struck up a romantic relationship with someone - maybe Sophie, who is perfect and lovely - he'd be seen in a different light?
But Noah's plans are derailed when Harry kisses him at a party.
That's when things go from bad to utter chaos.
No One Would Do What The Lamberts Have Done
You think it will never happen to you: the ring of the bell, the policeman on the doorstep. What he says traps you in a nightmare that starts with the words, 'I'm afraid…'
Sally Lambert is also afraid, and desperate enough to consider the unthinkable. Is it really, definitely, impossible to escape from this horror? Maybe not. There's always something you can do, right?
Of course, no one would ever do this particular something – except the Lamberts, who might have to.
No one has ever gone this far. Until Sally decides that the Lamberts will…
Gardens That Can Save the World
An exploration of the many ways in which green spaces can be the solution to some of our most pressing problems, from loneliness to climate change. Gardens and green spaces are at the vanguard of positive change. They are modern-day crucibles for ideas and innovation that are providing solutions to some of our most persistent problems, whether loneliness or illness, flooding or drought.
Around the world, green-fingered thinkers and pioneering plants-people are harnessing the power of the wild to quietly find small-scale strategies to reverse these ills. It’s no longer just about aesthetics, but about what the great outdoors can do – save water, transform mental health, bridge social divides, educate vulnerable children, reimagine polluting industries and provide much reason for optimism in a rapidly changing world. Celebrating both the garden and gardener as integral players in a healthier future this book presents a series of strategies that will help the reader reevaluate the potential that lies in green spaces near them by looking at how they have been applied in gardens around the world.
Sixty-five projects demonstrate how gardens can repair, heal, empower, nourish and reimagine, whilst an easy-to-read coloured code links each project to others in the book that solve a similar problem, whether soil health, education or pollution. Profiles of ten Green Thinkers dotted throughout delve more deeply into the inspiring work that these pioneers are leading. A glossary of plants, materials and techniques at the back of book encourages readers to apply the lessons learnt in their own garden, be that a windowsill or an acre.

The Opium War
In The Opium War, professor of Modern Chinese History and Literature Julia Lovell offers a compelling account of the causes and fallout of the Opium Wars. In October 1839, Britain entered the first Opium War with China. Its brutality notwithstanding, the conflict was also threaded with tragicomedy: with Victorian hypocrisy, bureaucratic fumblings, military missteps, political opportunism and collaboration.
Yet over the past hundred and seventy years, this strange tale of misunderstanding, incompetence and compromise has become the founding episode of modern Chinese nationalism. Starting from this first conflict, The Opium War explores how China’s national myths mould its interactions with the outside world, how public memory is spun to serve the present, and how delusion and prejudice have bedevilled its relationship with the modern West.
