A tender and unflinching portrait of modern adolescence told through the shifting perspectives of nine female students, All Girls explores what it means to grow up in a place that promises you the world - when the world still isn t yours for the taking.An all-girls boarding school in a hilly corner of Connecticut, Atwater is a haven for progressive thinking and feminist intellectuals. The students are smart, driven and worldly; they are also teenagers, learning to find their way. But when they arrive on campus for the start of the Fall term, they re confronted with startling news: an Atwater alumna has made a troubling allegation of sexual misconduct against an unidentified teacher. As the weeks wear on and the administration s efforts to manage the ensuing crisis fall short, these extraordinary young women come to realise that the adults in their lives may not be the protectors they previously believed.All Girls unfolds over the course of one tumultuous academic year and is told from the point of view of a small cast of diverse, interconnected characters as they navigate the social mores of prep school life and the broader, more universal challenges of growing up. The trials of adolescent girlhood are pitched against the backdrop of sexual assault, consent, anxiety and the ways that our culture looks to young women as trendsetters, but otherwise silences their voices and discounts their opinions. The story that emerges is a richly detailed, impeccably layered, and emotionally nuanced depiction of what it means to come of age in a female body today. A sincere and poignant and moving story of a group of teenage girls coming to terms with the world they ve inherited Taylor Jenkins Reid, New York Times bestselling author of Daisy Jones and the Six

It s 1961 and the rural Dutch province of Overijssel is quiet. Bomb craters have been filled, buildings reconstructed, and the war is well and truly over.Living alone in her late mother s country home, Isabel s life is as it should be: led by routine and discipline. But all is upended when her brother Louis delivers his graceless new girlfriend, Eva, at Isabel s doorstep-as a guest, there to stay for the season... Eva is Isabel s antithesis: sleeps late, wakes late, walks loudly through the house and touches things she shouldn t.In response Isabel develops a fury-fuelled obsession, and when things start disappearing around the house-a spoon, a knife, a bowl-Isabel suspicions spiral out of control. In the sweltering peak of summer, Isabel s paranoia gives way to desire - leading to a discovery that unravels all Isabel has ever known. The war might not be well and truly over after all, and neither Eva - nor the house in which they live - are what they seem.

THE TIMES #1 BESTSELLERTHE INSTANT NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLEROne of Vogue s Best Books to Read in 2021One of O Magazine s 55 Most Anticipated Books of 2021One of Marie Claire s 25 Best 2021 Memoirs to Pre-Order Now Electrifying. The Sunday Times A glorious, rogue, raw account ... It is funny; it is shocking; it is good. The Times Dangerous, alluring and misunderstood: Sharon Stone remains one of our best ever movie stars ... Her new book serves as a spectacular reminder of the outrageous fun of her Nineties fame and why she is more than due for contemporary respect. Independent Brawler, hillbilly, misfit, thief - the actress s memoir of her hardscrabble life, The Beauty of Living Twice, is a feast of yarns and jokes. Daily Telegraph While [The Beauty of Living Twice] contains some startling personal revelations, equally affecting is Stone s warmth and grace, qualities that, by the end, feel quite miraculous . . . Writing with zeal and urgency, Stone argues for a stronger legal system, for rape kits on police shelves to be processed, for better training for teachers and paediatricians. Above all, she offers a hopeful glimpse of life beyond trauma . . . The Beauty of Living Twice promises the possibility of improvement or redemption, of compassion and understanding, of living honestly. The Washington Post Sharon Stone, one of the most renowned actresses in the world, suffered a massive stroke that cost her not only her health, but her career, family, fortune, and global fame. In The Beauty of Living Twice, she chronicles her efforts to rebuild her life, and the slow road back to wholeness and health. In an industry that doesn t accept failure, in a world where too many voices are silenced, Stone found the power to return, the courage to speak up, and the will to make a difference in the lives of women and children around the globe. Over the course of these intimate pages, Stone talks about her pivotal roles, her life-changing friendships, her worst disappointments, and her greatest accomplishments. She reveals how she went from a childhood of trauma and violence to a business that in many ways echoed those same assaults, under cover of money and glamour. She describes the strength and meaning she found in her children, and in her humanitarian efforts. And ultimately, she shares how she fought her way back to find not only her truth, but her family s reconciliation and love. Stone made headlines not just for her talent and beauty, but for her candour and her refusal to play nice, and it s those same qualities that make this memoir so powerful. The Beauty of Living Twice is a book for the wounded, and a book for the survivors; it s a celebration of women s strength and resilience, a reckoning, and a call to activism. It is proof that it s never too late to raise your voice, and speak out.

Summery sweet and the ultimate slow-burn celebration of love in London, with actual laugh-out-loud snark. Ava and Finn are my new favourite black cat / golden retriever pairing, and I couldn t get enough of their chemistry Lucy Jane WoodA slow-burn, strangers-to-friends-to-lovers rom-com with a vibrant London setting, sizzling chemistry, and two polar-opposite strangers who just can t quite seem to let each other go . . .No one would ever call Ava Monroe a people person, which isn t ideal for a barista in a busy London coffee shop. She s sarcastic, blunt and cynical, and likes her men with strictly no strings attached. And despite desperate pleas from her best friend Josie to shake up her routine and make some new friends, she refuses to change her carefully controlled life.That is, until the insufferably cheerful, country-hopping, undeniably gorgeous Finn O Callaghan rolls into her coffee shop with a horrifyingly perfect proposal - a strictly friends-only fling. Finn s only in the city for the summer and needs a local to help him complete his London bucket list before he moves along for good, and Ava needs to reassure Josie she s got the makings of a social butterfly after all. It s an offer she can t refuse.As their mismatched friendship of convenience slowly becomes more tolerable, and as they work their way through Finn s bucket list around the sun-drenched city, from rooftops and floating bars to nights at the museum, their adventures - and Finn s company - start to feel... nice. Incredibly, terrifyingly, dangerously nice.But Ava has rules - and good reasons for them - and as the days get shorter, Finn s departure gets closer. Because that s the thing about summer: it always ends. Right? The Friendship Fling is fun, feisty, and sexy - I really loved it!
