Beschreibung

A darkly comic suspense in the vein of All’s Well and Yellowface, She’s a Lamb! is an edgy and incisive novel that marches toward showtime with a growing unease about the dangers of magical thinking and the depths of delusion
		 
Jessamyn St. Germain is meant to be a star. Not an actor who occasionally books yogurt commercials and certainly not a lowly usher at one of Vancouver’s smallest regional theaters. No, she is bound for greatness, and that’s why the part of Maria in the theater’s upcoming production of The Sound of Music is hers. Or it’s going to be.
		 
Jessamyn may have been relegated to the position of childminder for the little brats playing the von Trapp children, but it’s so obvious she’s there for a different reason — the director wants her close to the role so when Samantha, the lead, inevitably fails, Jessamyn will be there to take her place in the spotlight.
		 
This must be it. Because if it isn’t, well, then every skipped meal, every brutal rehearsal, every inch won against a man attempting to drag her down will have all been for nothing.
		 
Sharp, relentless, and darkly funny, She’s a Lamb! is a cutting satire about the grotesque pall patriarchy casts over one woman’s delusional quest to achieve her dreams and the depths she will sink to for a chance at the life she’s convinced she deserves.

    A Humanist Christmas is a collection of heartfelt stories originally shared with friends and family in the form of Christmas letters. Written with warmth and wit, these tales capture the joy, challenges, and small miracles the season. It is a book about Christmas Past – with memories sweet and bittersweet -- and about Christmas Present – reflections on artificial trees and artificial intelligence -- and about Christmas Future—how our dark times may be lightened by the Christmas spirit. It is a fun read because Christmas should have “room for ideas as loopy as flying reindeer.”

    ________________________________Fans of Alexandra Potter and Marian Keyes will love Divorced Not Dead, a no-holds-barred, heartfelt and laugh-out-loud hilarious romcom about being fifty, but absolutely not yet dead yet!––––––––––––––– 
    We’re going to need a bigger drink… 
    Meet Frankie: fifty, divorced and getting back on the horse. 
    After leaving Twatface – her husband of twenty years – she's starting again from scratch. And when her son also flees the nest for university, Frankie decides it’s time to throw herself back into the dating game with a vengeance. 
    On best friend Bel's recommendation, Frankie signs up to two dating apps: one for love, another for casual hook-ups (because why the hell not?!). 
    However, as she navigates this new frontier of catfishing, kittenfishing, ghosts, GILFs and everything in between, she realises the whole dating thing has changed quite a bit – and it really is a bloody jungle out there… 
    Will Frankie find love on the apps? Or the perfect shag? 
    Or – if there’s any justice in the world – both?
