All the important moral ideas of the modern world are based on Biblical verses that are analysed in this collection. What generally happens when someone picks up a copy of the Bible? The authors theory is that if one knows fifty verses of the five thousand in the Bible (only one percent!), the reader will begin to grasp the essence of the Bible. This surely is a revolutionary approach. This remarkable explanation of the Bible shows readers how it can serve as a light that illuminates a path through the confusion and problems in our personal and communal lives. The author uses the Bibles content to prod us, challenge us, and to push us into new and daring paths that will result in a life that is better, more serious, and with meaning, purpose and direction.

Some girls say no. Some boys don't listen. When Grace meets Ian, she's afraid. Afraid he'll reject her like the rest of the school, like her own family. After she accuses Zac, the town golden boy, of rape, everyone turns against her. Ian wouldn't be the first to call her a slut and a liar. Except Ian doesn't reject her. He's the one person who looks past the taunts and the names and the tough-girl act to see the real Grace. He's the one who gives her the courage to fight back. He's also Zac's best friend. "A bold and necessary look at an important, and very real, topic. Everyone should read this book." - Jennifer Brown, author of Thousand Words and Hate List A gut-wrenching, powerful love story told from alternating points of view by the acclaimed author of Send.

This book is an intimate, fond and funny memoir of one of the greatest novelists of the last century. This colourful, personal, anecdotal, indiscreet and admiring memoir charts the course of Muriel Spark's life revealing her as she really was. Once, she commented sitting over a glass of chianti at the kitchen table, that she was upset that the academic whom she had appointed her official biographer did not appear to think that she had ever cracked a joke in her life. Alan Taylor here sets the record straight about this and many other things. With sources ranging from notebooks kept from his very first encounter with Muriel and the hundreds of letters they exchanged over the years, this is an invaluable portrait of one of Edinburgh's premiere novelists. The book was published to celebrate the 100th anniversary of Muriel's birth in 2018.

'A delight' Stylist 'Funny, real and caring' YOU Magazine 'Funny, irreverent and moving... everything you would expect from the thick-fringed presenter who's won a place in the nation's hearts' The Sun 'Full of hilarious insights' Vanity Fair A SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLER Funny, moving and truthful... Quite Claudia Winkleman's warmth, humour, no-holds-barred attitude and smoky eye have made her the favourite broadcaster of millions and a much-loved household name. In this, her first ever book, Claudia invites us all into her world. She shares her observations on topics such as the importance of melted cheese, why black coats are vital, how it's never okay to have sex with someone who has an opinion on your date outfit, how nurses are our most precious national treasure, and why colourful clothing is only for the under 10s (if you're reading this sporting a bright red jumper and you're 9, great! If you're older, sorry). This is a love letter to life - the real, sometimes messy kind. Quite celebrates friendship, the power of art, the highs and lows of parenting, and of course, how a good eyeliner can really save your life. Heartfelt, wry and unmistakably Claudia, this book gets to the heart of what really matters. Claudia Winkleman's Quite was a No.1 Sunday Times bestseller w/c 27th December 2020.
