Synopsis

Madeleine wants to love, be remembered—and take revenge Abandoned by her husband, Jarvis, for a new wife and child, Madeleine is left alone with her troubled adolescent daughter, Hilary. By day, Madeleine tends (or doesn’t tend) to Hilary, who is growing more difficult by the hour. By night, she entertains dark fantasies about Jarvis’s second wife—Lily the Supplanter. And what of Margot, the doctor’s wife, who had a one-night stand with Jarvis many moons ago? All are ripe for their comeuppance as Madeleine, with malice aforethought, orchestrates her revenge. In Remember Me, Fay Weldon plumbs the depths of a fury that nothing, not even death, can stop. Compulsively readable, this is a novel that will be remembered for its wit, originality, and persistent humanity.

    The hero of the book is at a loose end, weary and bored of his old life after returning from the Great War. After an argument with his uncle and a railway strike he finds himself lost in the county of Norfolk at ten o'clock one night. When he seeks shelter in a country home, the butler immediately recognizes him as "Mr. Alfred", the missing son of the house. From that point onwards, our hero, who gives his name as "James Smith", finds himself in for an exciting time. Not only does he inherit the friends of "Mr. Alfred", but also the odium of his misdoings. Protestations are useless: the villagers are convinced he is the prodigal son. Of course, he could just leave the village - but then, had he not been hoping for something exciting to happen - and more importantly, what about Marjorie, the girl at the window?Originally published anonymously, this romantic comedy was just signed "by the author of "Patricia Brent, Spinster" (a book that was also published anonymously) with a dedication: "To those in many countries who have generously assumed responsibility for the authorship of Patricia Brent, Spinster - this book is dedicated by the author".

    From an Emmy Award–winning comedy writer: “An absolute must for every parent who needs to laugh so they don’t cry.” —Bunmi Laditan, author of Confessions of a Domestic Failure 
     
    From the comedian behind the popular parenting blog The Ugly Volvo comes a refreshing spin on the baby milestone book. Instead of a place to lovingly capture the first time baby sleeps through the night, this book commemorates baby’s first poop explosion; first time baby says a word you didn’t want her to say; and first time you forget the details of childbirth enough to consider having a second kid. 
     
    Accompanied by distinctive illustrations, these one hundred rarely documented but all-too-realistic milestones provide comfort, solidarity, and comic relief for exhausted and terrified new parents.

    In Las Vegas, Nevada, also known as Sin City, anything goes. This is why the Double G's have chosen to set up shop here. Starrshima Fields, aka Starr, is a young, bodacious, and bold beauty. She is also the leader of the Double G's, a powerful and ruthless social club of plus-sized women. Starr is guided by Queen Fem, the founder of the Double G's. Queen Fem set up the group of professionals-by-day, gangster-biker-chicks-by-night to prove that this isn't just a man's world.  
    The Double G's put the squeeze on their primary targets: men of power and privilege. Blackmail and manipulation are their choice of weapons, and they are skillful in both.  
    Agent McCarthy has been tracking the Double G's since the founder was at the helm of the organization. For years, he could not infiltrate the group of female radicals, but he has finally managed to plant a seed that could possibly lead to the destruction of the Double G's when the young Starrshima Fields becomes the new face of the group.  
    As the temperature increases in Las Vegas, so does the pressure the Double G's apply. No man is safe from the Double G's and their manipulative tactics, and anyone who tries to stop them is putting his life in danger. These women are on a mission, and they believe the only way they can accomplish it is by keeping the game and the players in a chokehold!
