  The Pilgrimage

  John Broderick, Colm Tóibín

  An erotic nightmare and classic of modern Irish literature. 
   
   
   
  Wealthy and devout, Michael and Julia Glynn are the envy of their neighbors and the model Irish Catholic couple, bearing Michael's increasingly painful and crippling arthritis with stoicism. In hope of a miracle, their priest suggests a family pilgrimage to Lourdes. Yet these pious holiday plans are thrown into doubt when anonymous, obscene letters begin to arrive, full of terrible accusations. 
   
   
   
  Banned in Ireland on its first publication in 1961, Broderick's debut arrived "like an incendiary device" (Sunday Independent). The Pilgrimage anticipated the deep shifts that would soon turn the country's theocratic society upside down. It is a darkly comic, blasphemous, and sexually charged chamber drama laying bare the hypocrisies of a small Irish town "as watchful as the jungle," and teetering on the brink of catastrophe. In the words of Colm Tóibín, in his foreword to this edition, The Pilgrimage "cleared a space in the jungle so that its wildness could be more easily seen." 
   
   
   
  Contains mature themes.

  Oh Christmas Tree

  Written by the hosts of the wildly popular Deck the Hallmark podcast! 
  Welcome to Greenville, Maine, where all the shop windows are festively decorated, the street lights are magically transformed into candy canes, and the air sounds and smells like the North Pole on Christmas morning.  
  Ellie Holden is back in her hometown of Greenville and surrounded by familiar faces and her favorite traditions. Well, most of them. She’s had a few rocky years, but she’s being her cheerful, helpful self, even if it means pressing pause on the dreams she once chased so passionately.  
  Meanwhile, a few hundred miles away, Josh Hanson is up to his eyeballs in spreadsheets and portfolio analyses, just the way he likes it. He hasn’t visited his Aunt Ruth in Greenville in way too long, and he hasn’t spoken to Ellie since he let their summer romance fizzle out more than ten years ago. But that is all about to change.  
  This is not your typical “boy meets girl in an idyllic Christmas town, they fall in love, but then lose touch only to then reunite under a sad, but surprisingly hopeful set of circumstances in order to complete a fulfilling holiday assignment that could bring the two closer together than ever, ultimately helping both find the meaning they had been searching for in life and in love.” Nope, that's not what this is. (That's what we're telling Grumpy Dan, anyway.) 
  Fans of the Deck the Hallmark podcast should love this story, and other people might enjoy it, too.

  Everyone has secrets but some are bigger than others. 
   
  Wendy Walker can count on two fingers the number of birthdays until she’s fifty. She can also count on six hands the number of years she’s been married to controlling Derek. Whatever happened to the boy she used to lark around with in the back of a Ford Escort? Just like Derek’s hairline, that lad has gone. 
   
  Wendy yearns for freedom but is resigned to her lot. After all, there are others to think about. Like daughter Ruby who – as a teenage single mum still at home – needs supporting, especially since abandoning her hopes of being on Love Island and achieving fame as a reality star. 
   
  But secrets dare to spill at the most inopportune moments. 
   
  Ruby is nurturing a mystery romance that she frets about her mother discovering, while Derek finds himself under the spotlight in the most disastrous of circumstances. 
   
  But just when Wendy thinks her world is falling apart, she discovers that sometimes unexpected joy is just around life’s corner…

  Can an email address scribbled on €20 change a life? Yes! 
  From the Back Cover 
  What would you do if you're given a €20 note in Greece with an email address scribbled on it: 
  1. Spend it?  
  2. Slip the suspect counterfeit bill into an enemy’s birthday card? 
  3. Send an email, hoping it will lead to you finding everlasting love?  
  Brad, a hopeless romantic, chose the latter. 
  Two years later, his love life remains a disaster and his career is misfiring. As he’s about to walk Spain’s fabled Camino de Santiago to ponder some profound life changes, Brad receives a reply. 
  Incredibly, it’s from a woman who lives on the pilgrimage path, far away from where the money first crossed his palm. She invites him to sleep… ‘on her house.’ 
  Hiking 900km on the Road to Santiago to a blind date with the mystery €20 woman, Brad has the adventure of a lifetime. 
  His heart is warmed by fellow pilgrims and natives who give him more reason than ever to believe in the kindness of the human spirit; he befriends a hilarious Hungarian who speaks English in song titles and has his raison d’être revealed to him by a barefoot Mayan mystic.  
  Will he meet his happily-ever-after along the way too? Mainstream Media Praise: 
  "An inspiring, touching, heartfelt and funny memoir that made me howl with laughter throughout. A wonderful read." - Kevin Hand, BBC London.Praise in Amazon Reviews for The Only Way Is West: 
  ★★★★★ "I loved this book. For anyone interested in the Camino, this is a must read." - Kate 
  ★★★★★ "Probably the best book I've ever read." - D Clay. 
  ★★★★★ "I was hooked from page one and couldn't put it down." - Georine
