But despite the obvious attraction between them, Cade will never make a move on her…and Andi can’t figure out why.

  Chosen as one of the ‘best new book releases’ by COSMOPOLITAN 
  A ‘best summer read’ by ELLE MAGAZINE 
  When you look at a woman, who do you see? 
  “Every aspect of her body or personality was up for inspection: too big, too small, too available, too hidden, too much, not enough.” 
  A wedding day brings back memories of sisterhood and betrayals; a motorway service station is the site of explosive violence, but also strange bonds; a trip home forces a reminder of a life-changing, lost friendship; a woman confronts her own infidelity; an artist celebrates a life spent in observation. 
  This debut collection movingly explores how women and girls are looked at, look at one another, and look at themselves, and how living as an object can shape their passions, fears, and joys. With a clear eye and dark humour, Danielle Pender considers sex, parenting, grief and class as lenses for the ways in which the world watches women — and how women are always watching back. 
  In Watching Women & Girls, Danielle Pender masterfully weaves together a collection of short stories that delve into the complexities of marriage, divorce, and family dynamics. The book, a top pick in fiction, offers a unique perspective on romance, showcasing the author's ability to capture the essence of human relationships. 
  For fans of Huma Qureshi (Things We Do Not Tell the People We Love), Jessica Knoll (Luckiest Girl Alive), Ottessa Moshfegh (Death in Her Hands), Mieko Kawakami (MONKEY New Writing From Japan Volume 2), and Sam Bett (The Beggar Student).

  The House of the Dead

  Fyodor Dostoevsky

  The House of the Dead (Russian: Записки из Мёртвого дома, Zapiski iz Myortvovo doma) is a semi-autobiographical novel published in 1860-62 in the journal Vremya by Russian author Fyodor Dostoevsky. It has also been published in English under the titles Notes from the House of the Dead, Memoirs from the House of the Dead and Notes from a Dead House, which are more literal translations of the Russian title.
  The novel portrays the life of convicts in a Siberian prison camp. It is generally considered to be a fictionalised memoir; a loosely-knit collection of descriptions, events and philosophical discussion, organised around theme and character rather than plot, based on Dostoevsky's own experiences as a prisoner in such a setting. Dostoevsky spent four years in a forced-labour prison camp in Siberia following his conviction for involvement in the Petrashevsky Circle. This experience allowed him to describe with great authenticity the conditions of prison life and the characters of the convicts.
