Girl Least Likely To
Liz Jones is Fashion Editor of the Daily Mail, and a columnist for the Mail on Sunday. She is the former editor of Marie Claire, which sounds quite an achievement, but she was sacked three years in. A psychotherapist once told her, 'What you brood on will hatch', and she was right. Nothing Liz ever did in life ever worked out. Nothing. Not one single thing. Liz grew up in Essex, the youngest of seven children. Her mother was a martyr, her dad so dashing that no other man could ever live up to his pressed and polished standards. Her siblings terrified her, with their Afghan coats, cigarettes, parties, sex and drugs. They made her father shout, and her mother cry. Liz became an anorexic aged e...
Liz Jones's Diary
He is laidback, she makes Howard Hughes look like a slob. He is in his thirties, she isn't. Can it ever work out? This book presents a hilarious account of one relationship, from being stood up by the love her life on Millenium Eve, to when she first meets a much younger man, through falling in love, getting married and finally, living together.
The Exmoor Files
Moving from Islington to Exmoor; one small step for mankind but a very large one for MAIL ON SUNDAY columnist Liz Jones. Liz Jones lived the perfect urban life. The immaculate Georgian townhouse in a leafy London square. The glamorous career. The Italian wardrobe stuffed with designer bags and shoes. The much younger novelist husband. But then it all goes horribly wrong. She discovers her husband has been having numerous affairs (with women who are younger, dimmer, slimmer) and realises that her pursuit of perfection has never made her happy, and probably never will. And so she decides to start all over again, burying herself alive in the middle of the bleak, unforgiving wilderness that is E...
Purple Reign
You already know prince is in the building before you spot him: the atmosphere changes, vacuums are turned off, people are a bit nervous. These are staff, remember, who see him practically every day. He has driven up to the building in his BMW and here he is, with that purposeful, slightly pigeontoed gait, his body tilted forward. Bit of a swagger.
Stubborn Archivist
A young British -Brazilian woman from South London navigates growing up between two cultures and into a fuller understanding of her body, relying on signposts such as history, family conversation, and the eyes of the women who have shaped her: mother, grandmother, and aunt. During her trips to Brazil, sometimes alone, often with family, our narrator accesses a different side of herself that is as much of who she is as anything else. -- adapted from back cover

Slave to the Rhythm
In 1977, a shy teenager with an Afro and an attitude signed a record deal. More than thirty years and thirty-nine remarkable albums later, Prince was still touring and making music until his untimely death in 2016. One of the last great superstars, he crossed boundaries of race and sex, created a brand-new sound and earned a reputation as a legendary live performer and a musical genius. SLAVE TO THE RHYTHM goes behind the scenes at Paisley Park for an exclusive interview with Prince, in which he talks openly about his battle with the music industry, about his first wife, his life and how he makes music. Interviews with family members, friends, fellow musicians, producers, dancers and managers shed light on perhaps the most misunderstood, and most elusive, icon of our time. Tracing Prince's music through jazz, soul, funk, punk and hip-hop and exploring the music industry at large, Liz Jones's masterful biography is the definitive guide to America's funkiest son.
