Sinossi

One Day's Courtship is a hilarious romance novel that circles a canoe trip taken by two artists, John Trenton and Eva Sommerton, who were strangers before the day of the voyage. Their goal is a trip to a picturesque local landmark. Interestingly, the novel starts with John Trenton reading a letter he was writing to his friends over to himself. It is an enjoyable story with easy-to-read language, a gripping plot, and excellent characterization. The novel describes the circumstances that lead to both the artists taking the trip together, their experiences and interactions on the boat, and several interesting events that follow.

    Much like accountants, fey never forget a debt. 
     
     
     
    Just as Fred is settling down in his new abode, he receives word that a favor is being called in, one he promised to a dangerously powerful member of otherworldly royalty.

    Acting as interim professor at one of the few universities for supernatural entities, Fred will have to navigate a strange environment, eccentric coworkers, and unenthusiastic students.

    Remnants of the past that could put Fred, and his students, in mortal peril.

    Ghosted: Dating & Other...

    Fueled by cheap vodka and low standards in her twenties, Jana naively assumes that “happily ever after” is just a dark, sweaty nightclub away. 
      
    In this memoir, Jana meets men. A lot of men — at bars, online, on New York rooftops. But with every face-licker, toe-sucker, and internet creep who just wants to bathe with her, it becomes clearer that hers is a ghost story, not the fairy tale she expected. Still single in her thirties, with the specter of loneliness looming, she realizes she’ll need to adjust her approach to dating and her relationship with herself, or risk being haunted by the mistakes of her dating past, and a future of shirtless bathroom selfies. 
      
    Though Ghosted by Jana Eisenstein depicts the struggle to find lasting love in a world where romantic connections are ephemeral and difficult to conjure, at its heart, it’s a story about learning to accept that when it comes to dating, there are scarier fates than ending up alone.

    Witty, tender and daring essays from the British David Sedaris 
    'A lovely writer: supple, stylish and almost effortlessly witty.' Daily Mail 
    'Made me laugh out loud and then properly cry.’ Jennie Godfrey 
    When it comes to the challenge of being a man, Adam Farrer always seems to find a way to fall short… 
    Broken Biscuits vividly recounts Adam’s struggles to live up to masculine expectations, real or imagined. From the calamity of his first serious relationship to an obsession with Prince that sees everyone questioning his sexuality, and from the repercussions of his adult circumcision to his doubts about his ability to survive the apocalypse, this candid and personal collection of essays is astonishingly far-reaching and riotously funny. 
    Holding up a mirror to Adam’s own body image, his relationship with his family, his sense of self-worth and the mortifying experience of arriving at a teenage party wearing strawberry-patterned short shorts, this book is about growing up and trying to define yourself as a man but somehow always missing the mark. 
    In this humorous autobiography, Adam Farrer presents a social study of his own life, filled with memoirs of his struggles with gender expectations. Broken Biscuits is a top pick for those seeking a candid, non-fiction exploration of masculinity. 
    For fans of Gary Stevenson (The Trading Game), Terrance Hayes (To Float in the Space Between), Melvyn Bragg (Back in the Day), Jessica Andrews (Saltwater), and Amy Key (Arrangements in Blue).

    ––––––––––––––––––––– 
    Anna's Christmas Eve To Do List: 
    1. Wrap the kids' presents​ 
    2. Peel the potatoes ​ 
    3. Get rid of the dead body?! 
    Hungover and exhausted after her family's annual party, all Anna Johnson wants for Christmas is to finish her to-do list and finally sit down with the world’s biggest glass of wine. 
    But when she stumbles across a dead body in her larder, her plans are well and truly buggered. 
    A mysterious death in her home really is the last thing she needs, but with her judgemental in-laws arriving in less than twenty-four hours, turning her house into a crime scene is not an option. If she’s going to save Christmas, it’s up to Anna to find out what the hell’s gone on. Oh – and figure out what to do with the body before one of the kids finds it.
