This season sees the release of a wealth of titles from the world of music and entertainment, including Life in Lashes, the official memoir from Kita Mean, winner of RuPaul’s Drag Race Down Under; and legendary Hollywood manager and publicist Ramon Hervey II shares tales from a four-decade career plotting and overseeing fame, success and crisis in The Fame Game. McCartney Legacy Volume 1 is set against the backdrop of the Beatles splintering over business and creative issues, covering a period in which Paul McCartney recreated himself, both as a man and as a musician. Tana Douglas, the world’s first female roadie, tells her fascinating life story in Loud, and Transformer is a celebration of the 50th anniversary of the ground breaking album by Lou Reed by fashion icon Simon Doonan. Looking forward to the festive season we have a host of gorgeous cookbooks for inspiration when hosting friends and family - Jacques Pépin: Art of the Chicken is a beautifully illustrated book of 50+ recipes, with the master chef’s musings on his life through the lens of the humble bird; and Donna Hay’s Christmas features delicious dishes and time saving tricks to make this Christmas one to remember.

SUPPRESSION, DECEPTION, SNOBBERY, AND BIAS Why the Press Gets So Much Wrong—

Media consultant and former Bush Administration Press Secretary Ari Fleischer accuses American journalism of becoming the domain of the woke young urban elite—a class which has no respect or tolerance for dissenting views. According to Fleischer, there is a new elite in America— the Journalist Class. These journalists haven’t just slanted the media. They’ve pulled the whole Democrat party over to their own worldview, he argues. The

Drawing on recently declassified intelligence files, Lauren Young details the pervasiveness of Nazi sympathies among the British aristocracy, and reveals how these aristocrats formed a murky Fifth Column to Nazi Germany, Eye-opening and instructive, Hitler’s Girl re-evaluates 1930s England to help us understand our own vulnerabilities and poses urgent questions we must face to protect our freedom.

DO HARD THINGS Why We Get Resilience Wrong and the Surprising Science of Real Toughness

Steve Magness

Toughness has long been held as a fundamental key to achieving peak performance. For generations, we’ve been taught toughness means bulldozing through—pushing to the point of breakdown—and that showing any sign of weakness is failure. This model of toughness has long been glorified and celebrated. But the truth is, it doesn’t work. Steve Magness, a performance scientist who coaches Olympic athletes, now offers a new kind of toughness— real toughness—that can help anyone navigate adversity and challenge. In Do Hard Things, Magness draws from mindfulness, military case studies, sports psychology, neuroscience, psychology, and philosophy to show how real toughness makes us more successful, happier, and better people.

RACE AND RECKONING From Founding Fathers to Today’s Disruptors

Ellis Cose

A groundbreaking book that examines how pivotal decisions have established and continued discriminatory practices in the United States, even as the rise of disinformation and other modern advertising techniques have plunged democracy into an ever-deepening crisis. In Race and Reckoning Ellis Cose dissects chapter-bychapter how America’s narrative breeds racial resentment rooted in conjecture over fact. Through rigorous research and with astute detail, Cose uncovers how, at countless points in history, America’s leaders have upheld a narrative of American greatness rooted in racism. It is a story grounded in history, and it demolishes the myths that ultimately allowed one of the most ill-prepared, unethical, vindictive, and truth-challenged politicians in history to position himself as America’s saviour by tapping

THE BONOBO SISTERHOOD Diane Rosenfeld

Harvard Law professor and powerhouse attorney Diane Rosenfeld has dedicated her career to ending violence against women, a battle she has waged in courtrooms, classrooms, and boardrooms. But a decade ago, when she encountered a Harvard colleague’s field work on bonobos, she discovered a game-changing model for ending gendered violence and abuse. The Bonobo Sisterhood explores the power and potential of female alliances to stop male-on-female violence. It’s about women looking out for and supporting women in every circumstance, and provides actionable steps we can all take to protect and support women from the continued and hidden horror of sexual violence and abuse.

LOUD A life in rock ‘n’ roll by the world’s first female roadie

Tana Douglas

Tana Douglas was just fifteen when she ran away to join the circus that was rock ‘n’ roll in the 1970s, taking a job with a young and upcoming band called AC/DC. Life on the road was hard work but exhilarating, particularly when you’re the only woman in the road crew and the #metoo movement is still 40 years away. Whether wrangling Iggy Pop across Europe, climbing trusses while seven months pregnant, drinking shots of JD with Bon Scott backstage at Wembley, or donning a tailor-made suit to do lights for Elton at Windsor Castle, Tana did it all.

Doonan offers first-hand testimony of the album’s impact on the LGBTQIA+ community, recalling how it transformed his own life as a 20-year-old working class kid from Reading, who had just discovered the joys of Glam Rock and whose creativity was sparked by the artistic freedom of Warhol’s The Factory. Transformer was a revelation—hearing Reed’s songs, Doonan understood how the world was changing for him and his friends.

JAMEELA GREEN RUINS EVERYTHING Zarqa Nawaz

A hilarious, rollicking, and razor-sharp satirical novel about a disillusioned American Muslim woman— who becomes embroiled in a plot to infiltrate an international terrorist organization, and in the process, reconnects with her loved ones and her faith. For fans of Where’d You Go, Bernadette? and My Sister, the Serial Killer, Jameela Green Ruins Everything is a whip-smart black comedy about the price of success, and a biting look at what has gone wrong with American foreign policy in the Middle East. It is a compulsively readable, yet unexpectedly touching novel about one woman’s search for meaning and connection, and about the lengths we go to for those we love.
