  She's the Queen of Mean, until one chaotic Christmas Eve night threatens to blow her life and budget wide apart! 
  Caroline’s got frugality down to a fine art. She can make a tin of soup stretch for days, considers “reduced to clear” her love language, and thinks Christmas is just a daft excuse for people to throw their money away on tinsel trimmed tat. 
  But Christmas Eve night takes a turn when her best mate, Marlene, drops in for a chat. Lovely, right? Except Marlene’s been dead for seven years and she’s got a message for Caroline, she will be visited by three spirits and if she doesn’t pay attention, her future’s looking bleaker than the contents of her fridge freezer. 
  Caroline’s convinced she’s having a hallucination. Ghosts? Surely not! But as the night goes on, she starts to wonder if she might just learn something worth more than her latest discount voucher. And for someone who knows the price of everything and the value of nothing, this might be the wake-up call she didn’t see coming. 
  Perfect for fans of Anstey Harris, Dawn French and The Thursday Murder Club – A Christmas Caroline is a hilarious, heartwarming festive tale about second chances, eccentric family ties and learning that some things in life are worth the splurge. 
  Laugh-out-loud funny, delightfully quirky, and full of Christmas cheer – this is the holiday novel you didn’t know you needed.

  In Our Time - 1925 Edition -...

  Ernest Hemingway

  In 1923 and '24, journalist and budding fiction writer Ernest Hemingway penned eighteen original short stories and published them in the magazine The Little Review with the help of his friend Ezra Pound, calling the collection "in our time" (all in lower case). Hemingway would later add to this collection and re-publish the stories in 1925 under the same title and - after adding an additional story - would again republish the entire volume in 1930, again as "in our time."Presented here is the expanded 1925 edition of this seminal novel. This collection of short stories would mark one of the most auspicious and earth-shattering debuts by an author in literary history and also introduced the world to the fictional character of Nick Adams, a protagonist Hemingway would re-visit repeatedly in his career.  Within a few years, Hemingway would become known as one of the most important voices of his generation and his stark prose - lean and brutal at times - would be imitated by generations of writers who followed him.

  Unwrap this festive romantic comedy from MULTI-MILLION-COPY BESTSELLER Portia MacIntosh. 
  'Smart, funny and always brilliantly entertaining, every book from Portia becomes my new favourite romcom.' Shari Low 
  Billie is looking forward to a quiet, man-free Christmas. It’s just a shame her family doesn't feel the same way… 
  With a house full of unexpected (and unwanted) guests, Billie needs to find the perfect escape to get away from the chaos. 
  So when her dating app recommends a week of singles nights in her area, Billie decides that braving these events has to be better than making conversation with her dad’s new wife, dealing with her mum's mid-life crisis or witnessing her sister flirting with her insufferably arrogant next-door neighbour. 
  While this is definitely not the festive season she had planned, between disco bowling and boozy bingo, little does Billie know that she may find love this year after all - she'll just have to date and see... 
  Join MULTI-MILLION-COPY BESTSELLER Portia MacIntosh for a laugh-out-loud, blind dating, close proximity romance, guaranteed to put a smile on your face.
