Book Description
Beth O’Leary meets Motherland. The funny, uplifting debut, that's soon to be a television adaptation! Five unlikely friends and a year that’ll change everything. Not for the easily offended! ABOUT A MOMENT ON THE LIPS: ETTA has had enough. At 5 ft 3 and size 20, she is determined to make a change. A change for herself, her daughter, and to show her ex, Robert, that she is, in fact, not only good enough for him but, in fact, far too good. JENNA is being driven mad by her mother-in-law’s critical and overbearing personality. And with her wedding fast approaching, she’s determined to regain control of her body and the big day. VAL is feeling lost and in shock after her husband of thirty years has upped and left her. Why? Good question. Val has no idea, but she’s determined to find out. NICKY has been on a downward spiral since her divorce. Struggling to move on and lonely with only her cats for company, food has become her best friend. YANA has new life in England. Despite marital bliss being everything she’d hoped for, Yana misses her family back in Russia and has developed some new habits that even her new husband isn't unaware of. Together they improve their lives and discover that it's never too late to strive towards the life you've always wanted. A note to readers from the eleven times Amazon All-Stars Award-winning author, J Taylor: “If you love to laugh and adore highly relatable, strong female characters that you’ll fall in love with and root for every step of the way, this is the book for you.” Excerpt from A Moment on the Lips: The second of June started eventfully: I got held hostage at work, and it was actually quite good fun. At Elm Lodge, there are three main foundations of the residents’ lives. Television, routine and food. The latter has become a massive issue of late. You probably remember it being mentioned that our chef had implemented a new menu, which has been met with a mixture of resistance, anger and sheer outrage. It came to a head today after this week’s menu options were given out. No one was happy and there were a lot of complaints, but it was Reg who decided enough was enough. ‘I will not eat that muck!’ he bellowed through the closed door as I perched on the commercial pack of toilet rolls, reading the Daily Mail on my phone. ‘I want our old menu back. Until I see some steak and kidney pudding, fish and chips on a Friday and our Sunday roasts – and I mean beef, pork and chicken, not nut roast, whatever that is when it’s at home! – we are staying put! And that includes the member of staff we have! That’s right, we have a hostage! Etta is in here too!’ "A Moment on the Lips is pure escapism! Think Bridget Jones meets Bridesmaids; it’s feel-good and completely hilarious!" ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ - Curl Up With A Book Blog. Perfect for fans of Kristen Bailey, Beth O’Leary, and Mhairi McFarlane. What readers are saying: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ ‘Many books I’ve purchased have promised a “laugh-out-loud read”, which didn’t happen, but with this book it absolutely did’ ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ ‘Lovely heart-warming and absolutely hilarious read’ ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ ‘I literally laughed out loud and cried with laughter reading this book, I could not put it down. Brilliantly funny, thought provoking and heart-warming’ ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ ‘I’m so glad I purchased it! I literally laughed out loud.

Book Description
Gavin and Stacey meets The Holiday. A Moment on the Lips at Christmas Join Etta on a funny and feel-good festive getaway. Because an A Moment on the Lips Christmas may not be a perfect Christmas, but it's definitely one you don’t want to miss. Now I don’t want to sound ungrateful, but I just have to say this: For. Fu*k. F**king. Sake. From: Pamela Wilson [email protected] To: [email protected] Date: 20 Dec 2021 13:43 Subject: Very exciting news! Prompt response required! Dear Family and Friends, We cordially invite you to join us at Midwinter Lodge from 27 December to 2 January, in the glorious wilderness of the Scottish Highlands, for a Christmas and New Year’s break to remember. Midwinter is an extremely luxurious hunting lodge that sleeps eighteen comfortably and is featured in April 2020 Your Home magazine. Facilities include open fires, Aga, private river access, and manicured grounds with a fire pit. Small dogs are allowed in the house. Outdoor shoes are not. This break is a gift from us to you. NO financial contribution is required. RSVP WITHIN 24 HOURS as we need the final numbers for the Ocado shop. Transport via executive coach included. We look forward to hosting you! Let’s make some memories! Festive love and peace, Pamela and Gillian I literally have no words. In no particular order, it looks like I will be spending my festive break with: Pam; Grandad; my daughter Chloe; my sister; my mother (fu*k my f**king life) and her new (not legal) toenail-chewing husband Nigel; Gillian and her husband (I can never remember his name); Jenna (thank God!) And Jason who will bring their two boys; Jenna’s mum Maggie (who generally refers to Gillian as ‘that c u next Tuesday’ or ‘that stuck-up cow’); Maggie’s husband George; and Jenna’s nana, who everyone calls Nana. Oh, and I haven’t even gotten to the best bit yet. Last but not least on the guest list is Richie – as in (to clarify) Jenna’s cousin, who is my new-but-not-yet-official boyfriend, who I have yet to see in person since our first kiss. That Richie. It’s not that I’m not happy at the prospect of spending time with him; it’s just that we are still in that exciting, fresh, texting-every-moment-of-the-day bubble. And I really like him. I don’twant him to get put off by things being too much too soon.So, it’s looking like our first romantic dinner and drinks date will be replaced by a ten-hour ‘executive coach’ journey with fourteen ‘family and friends as spectators. Followed by a five-day mini-break – again with fourteen spectators, including my mother, who never has anything nice to say about anyone (especially me) and her unwashed husband, who is living proof that natural deodorants do not work. Fan-f**kin’-tastic! You couldn’t make this up. At least I know why Pam had been so keen for me to join her and Gillian on a ‘special girly shopping trip’ for ‘sensual but classy negligees’ and ‘things’. I’m going to need a miracle for this break not to end in tears (probably mine.). But then it is Christmas, and, as they say, miracles do happen. That’s why they call them Christmas miracles. Admittedly, I’m not sure who they are, but they definitely do say that. Plus, thinking about it, I’m probably worrying over nothing, because it is a bit late notice. I’m sure I am getting all stressed out over nothing. I bet most people won’t even be able to come. I mean, who would even be available or willing to drop their plans for a luxury, all-expenses paid trip to the Scottish Highlands with a few days’ notice? Not for the easily offended!

Book Description
Kind, encouraging, and humorous, Karen Ehman helps us learn the essential practice of using our words more effectively--alleviating heartache and regret, reducing relational tension and conflict, lessening our stress levels, and growing our relationship with God. From Bible times to modern times women have struggled with their words. What to say and how to say it. What not to say. When it is best to remain silent. And what to do when you've said something you wish you could now take back. In this book a woman whose mouth has gotten her into loads of trouble shares the hows (and how-not-tos) of dealing with the tongue. Beyond just a "how not to gossip" book, this book explores what the Bible says about the many ways we are to use our words and the times when we are to remain silent. Karen will cover using our speech to interact with friends, co-workers, family, and strangers as well as in the many places we use our words in private, in public, online, and in prayer. Even the words we say silently to ourselves. She will address unsolicited opinion-slinging, speaking the truth in love, not saying words just to people-please, and dealing with our verbal anger. Christian women struggle with their mouths. Even though we know that Scripture has much to say about how we are--and are not--to use our words, this is still an immense issue, causing heartache and strain not only in family relationships, but also in friendships, work, and church settings. Also available: Keep It Shut small group video study and study guide.

Book Description
The groundbreaking National Book Award Finalist and Michael L. Printz Honor Book with more than 3.5 million copies sold, Speak is a bestselling modern classic about consent, healing, and finding your voice. "Speak up for yourself—we want to know what you have to say." From the first moment of her freshman year at Merryweather High, Melinda knows this is a big lie, part of the nonsense of high school. She is friendless, an outcast, because she busted an end-of-summer party by calling the cops. Now nobody will talk to her, let alone listen to her. As time passes, Melinda becomes increasingly isolated and practically stops talking altogether. Only her art class offers any solace, and it is through her work on an art project that she is finally able to face what really happened at that terrible party: she was raped by an upperclassman, a guy who still attends Merryweather and is still a threat to her. Her healing process has just begun when she has another violent encounter with him. But this time Melinda fights back—and refuses to be silent. From Astrid Lindgren Memorial Award laureate Laurie Halse Anderson comes the extraordinary landmark novel that has spoken to millions of readers. Powerful and utterly unforgettable, Speak has been translated into 35 languages, was the basis for the major motion picture starring Kristen Stewart, and is now a stunning graphic novel adapted by Laurie Halse Anderson herself, with artwork from Eisner-Award winner Emily Carroll.

Book Description
'If Emma Murray writes it, I want to read it. Hilarious!' Cathy Kelly Brand new from the bestselling author of Time Out and The Juggle. When her husband David announces he’s been offered a job in New York, Saoirse is thrilled. The glamour of the big city, the shopping, the culture, not to mention the free Manhattan apartment and business class air fare – what’s not to like? There’s just the small matter of making it work for their daughter, five-year-old Anna, who isn’t so keen to leave her friends and school behind. The Big Apple in the middle of summer isn’t quite the holiday Saoirse envisaged, and with David away with work, New York apartment sizes on the miniscule side, and the pace of life faster than the sleepy London suburbs, solo ex-pat parenting pushes Saoirse to her limits. And as the pressure builds and ‘faking it till she makes it’ isn’t cutting it, there’s only one thing for it – Saoirse and Anna need a new plan, and ‘Winging It’ might be their best option... Emma Murray returns with this laugh-out-loud funny, compulsively page-turning adventure about parenting, travelling, and finding your tribe – on both sides of the pond. Praise for Emma Murray: 'With wit, brio and fabulous humour, Emma Murray again delivers a page-turner about travel, parenthood, trying to fit in and finding your own tribe. If Emma Murray writes it, I want to read it. Hilarious.' Cathy Kelly 'A fabulous series full of laughter, witty observations' Jessica Redland 'Emma Murray’s writing is so deft: rib ticklingly funny and also heartbreakingly poignant at times that the reader is swept along with Saoirse and her cast of supporting characters as they navigate their increasingly hectic lives.' Fay Keenan 'Emma tells it how it is with real honesty, and it made me laugh out loud.' Janet Hoggarth 'Witty, fun, beautifully-written. Very highly recommended. Excited to see what comes next from Emma Murray.' Jessica Redland Readers loved Emma’s first book Time Out: ‘Compelling, Uplifting and so very relatable. The characters are superbly written, and I really hope we get to read more from Saoirse.’ ‘I really related to the Saoirse, the main character in this book. I loved her humour, her insecurities, her strengths, her flaws and of course most importantly how she formed a fantastic friendship over a morning bottle of Prosecco.’ ‘Emma Murray has written a 5-star 'how-to' book on being part of the village ... 'it takes a village to raise a child' but it also takes that village to raise up a mom!’ ‘A fabulous read that had me hooked and also made me feel glad that my children were born prior to the arrival of Facebook and social media. But a refreshing read and one I would definitely recommend.’

Book Description
James Keating, David Connelly, Matt Smith, and Riley Shaunessy are four high school friends struggling to sort out adulthood in their thirties. One night at their local pub, Jack Taft, a professor of Shakespeare, interrupts their typically inane conversation. Taft begs the foursome to discuss something more consequential than the outcome of a basketball game. Connelly challenges Taft to an impromptu debate. Before any of them have time to marvel at Connelly’s intellect, Taft leaves a mysterious envelope for Keating, daring these friends to chase one of the greatest mysteries in the history of the English language: who was William Shakespeare? With the help of Taft’s estranged daughter Rosalind, dormant imaginations are brought to life. Chasing Shakespeare’s lost play, Cardenio, the foursome embarks on a transatlantic journey as they pursue love, purpose, and the truth about the man from Stratford.
