KING SORROW by Joe Hill
Arthur Oakes is a reader and dreamer studying at Rackham College in Maine. His quiet academic life and his budding romance with the brilliant Gwen Underfoot are shattered when a local drug dealer forces him into an unthinkable crime: stealing rare books from the college library. Desperate, Arthur turns to his closest friends, who hatch an audacious plan to save him. Wealthy and reckless Colin Wren suggests using the disturbing Crane journal( bound in human skin) to summon a dragon. But their bargain with King Sorrow comes at a terrible cost: one sacrifice every year or become the dragon’ s next meal.
DEAR DEBBIE by Freida McFadden
Sometimes, enough really is enough. Debbie Mullen has spent years dispensing calm, measured advice through her beloved column,
Dear Debbie, guiding women through unhappy marriages and quiet desperation. But her own life is coming apart at the seams. Debbie has lost her job, her teenage daughters are acting strangely, and her husband appears to be hiding something – thanks to a tracking app on his phone. After years of being reasonable, patient and forgiving, Debbie decides she’ s done taking the high road. This time, she’ s taking her own advice.
WALTER SISULU: A SENSE OF OUTRAGE by Tom Lodge with Roger Southall
Though often mentioned alongside Nelson Mandela and Oliver Tambo, Walter Sisulu has remained an understated figure in South Africa’ s liberation history. This nuanced and authoritative biography, drafted by political historian Tom Lodge before his death and completed by Roger Southall, restores Sisulu to his rightful place. Lodge presents him as an exceptional organiser and strategic mind, central to the ANC’ s mass campaigns of the 1950s, a principled yet flexible communist, and a key advocate for armed struggle alongside Mandela.
