Grace Under Pressure
Grace Harkness looks like she has it all - two beautiful children, four cookbooks under her belt and an idyllic beachside home #blessed. But add another baby on the way (oops), a spouse that is nowhere to be seen and a relentless list of things she 'should' be doing, and Grace is starting to unravel. When the madness of modern-day motherhood finally pushes her to the brink, Grace and her friends decide to ditch the men in their lives, move in together and create a 'mummune' - sharing the load of chores, school pick-ups/drop-offs and endless Life Admin. The new set-up seems like a dream, but is life in this utopian village all it's cracked up to be?
A Suitcase and a Spatula
Take a mini break and join Sydney-born food and travel writer, blogger and intrepid gourmet, Tori Haschka on her globetrotting adventures in food. Do you often while away the time imagining yourself eating sardines with Campari, peach and fennel as the sun sets over Piazza San Marco in Venice? Do you dream of skiing in picture-perfect Whistler so that you can reward yourself with a steaming apple fritter at the end of it? If you long to take a holiday in the comfort of your kitchen, let Tori be your guide—no passport required. She shares her memories and anecdotes from her travels with unique charm and humor, and recreates recipes to allow you to taste food redolent of beaches, chalets, dappled terraces, souks, tapas bars and tavernas from the four corners of the globe.
Travels with My Spatula
Transport your kitchen on a trip around the world with this delicious collection of cultural cuisine. If you've ever found yourself dreaming about that time you spent sipping Margaritas in Mexico, or when you had to have just one more croquette from the mouth-watering displays of tapas in Spain, you're not alone. Tastes, aromas and the whole foodie experience of a country can stay with you for years, and make you want to pack your bags and relive that moreish moment in time. Food and travel writer Tori Haschka felt exactly the same every time she travelled, finding herself collecting Post-It notes of memorable dishes she'd eaten and then – when she got home – she'd capture her experiences through recreating recipes. Split into chapters covering brunch, sweet treats and summer and winter recipes, you can try her slow-cooked ribs from Brooklyn, the perfect pasta from Rome or luscious lentil koshary from Cairo; each recipe is a delicious memory waiting to be brought back to life in her home and yours. Who knows, it may even inspire you to book a flight and take a foodie journey of your own!

Bon Appetempt
When Amelia Morris saw a towering, beautiful chocolate cake in Bon Appétit and took the recipe home to recreate it for a Christmas day brunch she was hosting, it resulted in a terrible (but tasty) mess that had to be served in an oversize bowl. It was also a revelation. Both delicious and damaged, it seemed a physical metaphor for the many curious and unexpected situations she's found herself in throughout her life, from her brief career as a six-year-old wrestler to her Brady Bunch-style family (minus the housekeeper and the familial harmony) to her ill-fated twenty-something job at the School of Rock in Los Angeles. As a way to bring order to chaos and in search of a more meaningful lifes...

Life After Truth
"Fifteen years after graduating from Harvard, five close friends on the cusp of middle age are still pursuing an elusive happiness and wondering if they’ve wasted their youthful opportunities. Jules, already a famous actor when she arrived on campus, is changing in mysterious ways but won’t share what is haunting her. Mariam and Rowan, who married young, are struggling with the demands of family life and starting to regret prioritising meaning over wealth in their careers. Eloise, now a professor who studies the psychology of happiness, is troubled by her younger wife’s radical politics. And Jomo, founder of a luxury jewellery company, has been carrying an engagement ring around for months, unsure whether his girlfriend is the one. The soul searching begins in earnest at their much-anticipated college reunion weekend on the Harvard campus, when the most infamous member of their class, Frederick - senior advisor and son of the recently elected and loathed US president - turns up dead. Old friends often think they know everything about one another, but time has a way of making us strangers to those we love - and to ourselves."--Publisher description.
