  When two naked women come into your life on consecutive days, the Sapphic Goddesses might be trying to tell you something. 
  Abi, a 49-year-old widow, meets a naked woman on the shore of Lake Ginninderra, and it turns her life upside down. Feelings she can’t understand overwhelm her. There’s more to this woman than meets the eye, and Abi must navigate a situation she could never have imagined. When a second naked woman turns up at her home, Abi becomes embroiled in an out of this world situation.

  Confessions of a Reluctant Optimist

  Amy Chamberlain has never been one for motivational slogans or rose-tinted glasses. She’s the kind of woman who expects the worst—only to be mildly surprised when life occasionally delivers something better. 
  But somewhere between failed diets, disastrous first dates, and the endless chaos of everyday life, she’s discovered that optimism doesn’t always have to arrive in grand gestures. Sometimes it’s hidden in burnt toast that still tastes fine, in friendships that outlast heartbreak, or in simply making it through the day without crying in the supermarket car park. 
  With humour, honesty, and a touch of hard-won wisdom, Confessions of a Reluctant Optimist is a candid exploration of what it means to search for silver linings when you’re more comfortable expecting thunderstorms. 
  For anyone who has ever rolled their eyes at “positive vibes only” but secretly hoped for a happy ending, this is the book that says: you don’t have to be a natural optimist to find joy—you just have to keep looking.
