  From the #1 New York Times bestselling author of The Party Crasher and Love Your Life comes “a hilarious tale … hijinks worthy of classic I Love Lucy episodes … too good to pass up.” (USA Today) 
   
  Becky Bloomwood has a fabulous flat in London’s trendiest neighborhood, a troupe of glamorous socialite friends, and a closet brimming with the season’s must-haves. The only trouble is, she can’t actually afford it—not any of it. Her job writing at Successful Saving magazine not only bores  
  her to tears, it doesn’t pay much at all. And lately Becky’s been chased by dismal letters from the bank—letters with large red sums she can’t bear to read. She tries cutting back. But none of her efforts succeeds. Her only consolation is to buy herself something … just a little something. 
   
  Finally a story arises that Becky actually cares about, and her front-page article catalyzes a chain of events that will transform her life—and the lives of those around her—forever. 
   
  “Sophie Kinsella keeps her finger on the cultural pulse, while leaving me giddy with laughter.”—Jojo Moyes, author of The Giver of Stars and The Last Letter from Your Lover

  A laugh-out-loud comedy in the vein of Spike Milligan and Tom Sharpe. Irreverent and a little bit surreal this book is a damn good laugh.
  It’s 1932 and four men have been brutally murdered in the village pub of St Mary Mediocre just outside the town of Slagbottom. The local police are baffled and the local busybody, Miss Marble, is unavailable, she’s been knocked off her bike by a passing Belgian tourist. So the local force calls for the help of the most famous police detective of the age, Detective Inspector Aloysius Corner of Scotland Yard. Corner of the Yard, as he is known far and wide, has an unusual method of solving crime … he leaves it all up to his assistant Detective Sergeant Impetigo Dogsbreath. But Sergeant Dogsbreath has his own problems; he was born in Slagbottom and left as soon as he was able. Now he bitterly resents being forced back to the town to confront his own personal history.

  Notebook

  The story behind Notebook starts with a minor crime: the theft of Tom Cox's rucksack from a Bristol pub in 2018. In that rucksack was a journal containing ten months' worth of notes, one of the many Tom has used to record his thoughts and observations over the past twelve years. It wasn't the best he had ever kept – his handwriting was messier than in his previous notebook, his entries more sporadic – but he still grieved for every one of the hundred or so lost pages. This incident made Tom appreciate how much notebook-keeping means to him: the act of putting pen to paper has always led him to write with an unvarnished, spur-of-the-moment honesty that he wouldn't achieve on-screen.
  Here, Tom has assembled his favourite stories, fragments, moments and ideas from those notebooks, ranging from memories of his childhood to the revelation that 'There are two types of people in the world. People who fucking love maps, and people who don't.' The result is a book redolent of the real stuff of life, shot through with Cox's trademark warmth and wit.

  No one ever said that Dave Simon, Dean of Admissions at Cherryville University, was ethical. No one ever said he wasn’t a hardcore pervert either. Well, into his office has just stepped the sweetest, most beautiful, and sexy exchange student he ever saw!
   
  Now, what in the world is a man with Dave Simon’s sexual hunger supposed to do? After all, he can’t just let a cutie like that walk away after her interview is over. Between her sweet face, trusting eyes, and maddeningly perky body, Suki Fukushima is arousing him like no one ever has!
   
  And on top of that, he can plainly see that, in addition to being sweet, beautiful, and shapely, she is also the most naïve young lady he’s ever met.
   
  Now his wheels are turning!
   
  Dave immediately conjures up a banquet of baloney—telling her that it is customary for all incoming students to be inspected (by him, of course) in order to make sure she isn’t carrying any contraband or diseases onto campus.
   
  Naturally, this will require that this nervous, unsuspecting little thing take off all her clothes and submit to a very thorough and intimate cavity search / medical examination.
   
  And naturally, Dave and his audacious hands are having the time of their lives as Suki is ordered to assume no small number of humiliating positions throughout her bogus inspection.
   
  And even after all that—even after she is left shaking, red-faced, and overwhelmed—Dave then informs her that, since she is a sexual novice, she is sure to be a distraction to all the red-blooded young males on campus, not to mention a danger to herself.
   
  But, not to worry, Dave’s dirty and creative mind have the solution to that little problem all figured out. And all it will take is to find some randy college stud willing to help her out of her predicament!

  Years after fleeing San Francisco and getting sober, Jhanvi has made a life for herself working at a grocery co-op and saving for her surgeries. But when her friend (and sometimes more) Henry mentions that he and his techie festival-goer friends spent $100,000 to transform a warehouse basement into a sex dungeon, Jhanvi starts wondering if there's a way to exploit these gullible idiots. She returns to San Francisco, hatching a plan to marry Henry for his company's generous healthcare benefits. 
   
   
   
  Jhanvi enters a world of beautiful, decadent fire eaters and their lavish sex parties. But as her pretensions to cynicism and control start to fade, she develops a Gatsbyesque attraction to these happy young people and their bold claims of unconditional love. But do any of her privileged new friends really like or accept her? Her financial needs expose the limits of a community built on limitless self-expression, and soon she has to choose between doing what's right, and doing what's right for her. 
   
   
   
  This darkly funny novel skewers privileged leftist millennial tech culture, and asks whether "found family" is just another of the twenty-first-century's broken promises.
