They’re like oil and water-it’s just never going to work. It’s gotten so bad that I don’t ever invite them to the same events anymore. She thinks there’s something slimy about him and always loves to give him a quick jab about something or other. He and Jeanette never really got along either. This should have been a red flag months ago and nipped us in the ass. I could be covered from neck to ankle and he would say my shoes were too suggestive. I hear it about my shoes on the regular from him. I know if Justin saw me like this he would probably give me a scolding about what is and isn’t appropriate attire. What do you think Justin would say if he could see you right now?” “Nothing wrong with showing a little slut now and again, Lays. I’m not sure how she pulls off that tiny waist because the girl could out-eat me any day of the week. She looks wholesome and sweet when she’s dressed casually, but tonight she’s done up like she’s about to pound the runway. She makes men take notice when she walks into a room. She’s the picture in your head when you hear the word ‘model’-long, flowing, perfectly tousled blonde hair, sun-kissed skin that makes her aquamarine eyes almost glow. “Yeah, but it looks longer on your skinny ass whereas my size twelve sucks up some of the important ass-covering length.” “Hey bitchness, that’s my dress you’re wearing,” Jeanette responds, giving me a little smirk. ![]() ![]() Our packages are wrapped in brown paper and tied up with coloured paper ribbons.

I never expected to be as invested in this book as I was, but I found the characters relatable, their dialogue authentic, and their stories moving. It’s a book about the post-college years, when life hands you unexpected challenges, and tough decisions have to be made about relationships, careers, friendships, and family. While billed as a love story, I found One Day in December to be a charming coming-of-age story at its heart. Guess who he turns out to be? The ensuing story follows Laurie, Sarah, and Jack over 10 years as they navigate life, love, and all their highs and lows. But after a year of searching, she’s had no luck finding him … until she is introduced to her best friend Sarah's new boyfriend, Jack. ![]() ![]() ![]() When Laurie spots a handsome guy through a bus window in London, their eyes meet, and she falls in love at first sight. ![]() What happens when a hardcore mystery/thriller fan who shies away from romance in film, television, books, and even real life takes a chance on a romance novel? Spoiler alert: I loved it. Theres usually a big dollop of romance in there too, because who doesnt love love Im the author of four novels: The Shape of Us, Dear Lily, With or Without. ![]() ![]() ![]() The spec-fic text arrives from the Stormzy-linked Penguin imprint #Merky Books as a sweeping page-turner of a story that aerates the author’s favoured forms-memory, trauma, the speculative-as part of a boldly inventive construction that runs to 355 richly dramatic pages. Sorrowland, the blazing third novel by Rivers Solomon (who uses fae/faer pronouns), is an interesting example in this regard. If our current climate of anxiety produces much dramatic potential for the novelist, it is also susceptible to producing a kind of novel that often feels too comfortably attuned to the idea of ‘reckoning with the past’ as a cathartic rehearsal of past wrongs, and is thus diminished as a result. Partly, this is because the long-worn sense that writers ought to respond to the world in which they find themselves is the driving impulse of much that is great in contemporary literature. As the beat of cultural life is increasingly filtered through the watch-it-now lens of on-demand television shows, so many new novels have taken on a pacing and rhythm that presages their adaptation for Netflix. The great enemy of the contemporary novel is TV. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() The anthology Growing Up Aboriginal in Australia which Anita edited, was named the Small Publisher Adult Book of the Year at the 2019 Australian Book Industry Awards.Īnita’s children’s literature includes Kicking Goals with Goodesy and Magic, co-written with Adam Goodes and Michael O’Loughlin.

Kooyman said he initially thought someone had thrown a rock through a window and was breaking into the home. Gerald and Melba Kooyman, who live in the Torrey Pines neighborhood of San Diego, awoke to a loud crashing noise and found glass from a broken light fixture on the foot of their bed around 2:45 a.m. The area of I-8 near the border of San Diego and Imperial counties was closed to high-profile vehicles. But an extended blackout hit more than 8,000 customers as the utility rushed to cope with winds that hit 84 mph near Julian, 80 mph at Boulevard, along Interstate 8, and 77 mph in Pine Valley. The winds knocked out power to more than 30,000 San Diego Gas & Electric customers across the county. “These were the strongest winds I’ve seen out there in the nearly 23 years I’ve worked here,” said Phil Gonsalves, a weather service forecaster. ![]() The winds also hit more than 50 mph just off the coast.
