Summary

William's natural desire to do the right thing leads him into serious trouble, as usual, and when blackmail and kidnapping are involved, it's no surprise. Even when he turns over a new leaf, the consequences are dire. But it's his new neighbour, Violet Elizabeth Bott, who really causes chaos – and no one will believe that it's not William's fault . . . Richmal Crompton's Still William is a collection of fourteen brilliant Just William stories with an introduction by Sir Tony Robinson, appealing contemporary cover art by Chris Judge, along with the original inside illustrations by Thomas Henry. There is only one William. This tousle-headed, snub-nosed, hearty, lovable imp of mischief has been harassing his unfortunate family and delighting his hundreds of thousands of admirers since 1922.
Available since: 01/25/2022.

    A dark comedy about how to live your best life, even when you're dead.  
     
    Stacey was trying to live her best life, but now she’s dead. But why hasn't she passed on? Could it be her fatal car accident is actually murder? 
    Detectives Ed Beaufontaine and Rose Garafino have a long list of suspects, chief among them Stacey's fiancé, Liam. His business dealings and new relationship with Emily Jackson are raising a few eyebrows. As the detectives dig deeper, so does Stacey. 
    With nothing but time on her hands, she forensically examines her past relationships – her pathological ex, unreliable father, controlling psychologist, and toxic girlfriends – realising she might have been better off without them. She's hoping she can steer the detectives in the right direction before she's doomed to wander for eternity. 
    Because in the city of angels and 12 step programs, even the dead need a little help from time to time.

    An instant New York Times bestseller, I'll Show Myself Out is the eagerly anticipated second essay collection from Jessi Klein, author of the acclaimed debut You’ll Grow Out of It. 
    Longlisted for the PEN Diamonstein-Spielvogel Award for the Art of the Essay  
    “Sometimes I think about how much bad news there is to tell my kid, the endlessly long, looping CVS receipt scroll of truly terrible things that have happened, and I want to get under the bed and never come out. How do we tell them about all this? Can we just play Billy Joel’s We Didn’t Start the Fire and then brace for questions? The first of which should be, how is this a song that played on the radio?” 
    In New York Times bestselling author and Emmy Award-winning writer and producer Jessi Klein’s second collection, she hilariously explodes the cultural myths and impossible expectations around motherhood and explore the humiliations, poignancies, and possibilities of midlife.  
    In interconnected essays like “Listening to Beyoncé in the Parking Lot of Party City,” “Your Husband Will Remarry Five Minutes After You Die,” “Eulogy for My Feet,” and “An Open Love Letter to Nate Berkus and Jeremiah Brent,” Klein explores this stage of life in all its cruel ironies, joyous moments, and bittersweetness. 
    Written with Klein’s signature candor and humanity, I'll Show Myself Out is an incisive, moving, and often uproarious collection.

    DISCLAIMER: This is NOT the Official Book. This is a Summary & it does NOT Accompany the Official Book. 
    In this era-defining novel that Stephen King heralded as the "Catch-22 of early feminism," we follow Zott from the lab to the kitchen. The book highlights the strikingly unscientific attitude towards gender equality amongst her male colleagues, save for Calvin Evans, a Nobel-prize nominated intellect who becomes smitten with her sharp mind, sparking undeniable chemistry. 
    Life's unpredictability leads Zott from being a single mother to a reluctant star of the beloved cooking show, "Supper at Six." Her unconventional cooking methods quickly become revolutionary, and as her influence expands, she dares women to challenge the status quo. 
    A perfect blend of humor, sharp observations, and a stellar cast of characters, "Lessons in Chemistry" is as captivating and vibrant as its protagonist. It's more than a novel - it's a testament to female empowerment in a time of change.
