Finding Hope During Times of Personal Trial

*This edition includes exclusive four-colour interior artwork by Lilithsaur ft a very steamy scene, plus a brand-new bonus chapter* An enemies-to-lovers spicy novella set in the world of video gaming from the Sunday Times bestselling author of Deep End and Mate - now in print and ebook! Viola Bowen has the chance of a lifetime: to design a video game based on her all-time favorite book series. The only problem? Her co-lead is Jesse f-ing Andrews, aka her archnemesis.

When their bosses insist a wintery retreat is the perfect team-building exercise, Viola can't think of anything worse. Being freezing cold in a remote mountain lodge knowing Jesse is right next door? No, thank you. But as the snow piles on, Viola discovers there's more to Jesse than she knew, and heat builds in more ways than one. *Ali Hazelwood's Deep End was a Sunday Times bestseller w/e 23 February 2025. *Ali Hazelwood's Mate was a Sunday Times bestseller w/e 12 October 2025.

Two Can Play

What if the only way to break through the chaos in your life was to stop trying to move the mountains in your path - and instead learn to traverse them?

Chris thought he had it all under control: a career with real potential, a family he loved deeply, and dreams of building a better life for them all. But when the weight of his failures pushes him to the brink, he finds himself thrust into a surreal wilderness where nothing is certain-except the lessons that will change everything.

From cattle drives across blistering Nevada deserts to campfires in the Montana backcountry, Chris meets unlikely guides who challenge his assumptions about control, failure, and redemption. Each encounter forces him to confront his deepest regrets, his failing marriage, and the truth he's been running from: that the mountains in life don't move just because we want them to.

Blending vivid adventure with profound allegory, Cursing at Mountains takes readers on a journey through shifting landscapes of desert, forest, and canyon-where every road is a choice, every choice has a consequence, and growth comes only through surrender.

Fans of Theo of Golden by Allen Levi, or Matt Haig's reflective storytelling will find the same mix of inspiration, adventure, and timeless wisdom in these pages.

Chris's struggle is every person's struggle-the battle to let go, to forgive, and to find the courage to start again. His journey will leave you asking: what mountains am I cursing at in my own life?

More hated, more loved, never out of fashion. Ugly is beautiful... We're not talking about the shoe anymore.In Croc, Boe tells his wild story through lessons on life and leadership that you are guaranteed not to find anywhere else.

Quitting gets a bad rap. It's what the lazy people do. It's synonymous with giving up. Winners don't quit.Except, that's not really true. This book shakes our perceptions and teaches a hard lesson: according to the research, working hard non-stop and persevering through pain isn't always the answer to everything.We live in a society that champions perseverance, sweat and tenacity no matter the cost. But what if our relentlessness results in failure, sunken costs and poor health, rather than success, happiness, and vitality? Lindsay Crouse, an award-winning reporter and writer for the New York Times, argues that our society has tricked us into thinking that staying the course is the ultimate achievement, despite the surprising cost to ourselves.She delves into the science of perseverance versus walking away from aspects of our lives, and relays a diverse blend of compelling personal stories, historical examples and psychological insights - from the origins of the self-help genre to the Finnish concept of sisu, resilience.For anyone at a crossroads in their personal or professional lives, The Case for Quitting is a groundbreaking guide that ruptures our core beliefs. Career seekers, athletes, entrepreneurs and anyone exploring new opportunities or feeling stuck in unproductive routines will appreciate its insights on the courage and - importantly - strategy involved in quitting.

William Shakespeare: Volume 142

THE MUST-READ MEMOIR BEHIND THE MAJOR BAFTA AWARD-WINNING FILM, I SWEAR, STARRING ROBERT ARAMAYO.From the remarkable Scottish campaigner, this is the powerful and moving autobiography offering extraordinary insight into what it is like to live with a severe form of Tourette's Syndrome. 'Funny and heartfelt ... this skilfully told tale deserves praise for how it lets us non-sweary people see inside the ordinary, albeit anxious, mind of someone with Tourette syndrome.' THE TIMES Born in the 1970s on the Scottish Borders, John's was ten when his tics first arrived, as if from nowhere. Previously a happy, popular, football-mad boy he was labelled disruptive, rude, and even mad. As his condition progressed, from blinks and jerks to involuntary rude and obscene shouting, John was bullied, rejected - alienated from his family and a society that had no idea what to make of him. Hospitalized and drugged for months, it was only an extraordinary and transformative friendship, and John's dogged optimism, that turned his life around, making I Swear an inspirational story of triumph over adversity. Through John's eyes, we see Tourette's not just as a medical condition, but as a lens through which we can all better understand the importance of human connection. And how essential, as well as ultimately rewarding, it can be to keep going and never give up. 'An astonishing tale about an amazing man.' - JOJO MOYES, author of Me Before You and Someone Else's Shoes 'This superb book is an engaging and fascinating account of what it's like to live with Tourette's.' DAILY MAIL 'Brave, shocking, funny and moving ... This is a really important book.' RACHEL JOYCE, bestselling author of The Unlikely Pilgrimage of Harold Fry and The Homemade God
