The Second Sight of Zachary Cloudesley by Sean Lusk

A coming-of-age book about a boy with extraordinary abilities who embarks on a quest to find his father when he disappears

When Abi is offered the chance of a new life, she hopes it will fill the gap left by the death of her twin, but will it give her that?

A novel based on history and “The Last Duchess”, a poem by Robert Browning – intense and dark, and highly evocative of Renaissance Italy

The best book that I have read this year – a funny, warm, unique book with a biting message about how women should carve their own path

Funny with a good-paced narrative, enough mystery to keep you reading and twists to keep you guessing, Ruby Fox’s book is a great read

An interesting novel philosophically speaking which is thought-provoking but, at times, challenging to read

A thriller based around the disappearance of a baby from her home while her parents are partying next door – tense and twisty

A couple craft a life for themselves in the wilds of Alaska but long for a child – and then miraculously, one appears. But who is she?

An underground thriller where society has been formed in a silo but for what purpose? Is it just about survival from the toxic upper world?

Truly a tale for our social media dominated times, this book is full of satire and humour with a strong end message
