24.01.2022 "Barack Obama is as fine a writer as they come," Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie writes in her review. "It is not merely that this book avoids being ponderous, but that it is nearly always pleasurable to read."

19.01.2022 Local author Trevor Shearston's new novel 'The Beach Caves' is now in stock. Written in clear, beautiful prose, and with great depth and moral complexity, The Beach Caves is a powerful story about jealousy, guilt, the choices we make, and the different paths our lives could have taken--shadow paths, which nevertheless leave a trace. http://shop.megalongbooks.com.au/bookweb/details.cgi

17.01.2022 Another great small town crime novel from Garry Disher. In Consolation, Tiverton's only police officer Constable Paul Hirschhausen is dealing with a snowdropper. Someone is stealing women's underwear, and Hirsch knows how that kind of crime can escalate. Then two calls come in: a teacher who thinks a child may be in danger at home. A father on the rampage over at the primary school. http://shop.megalongbooks.com.au/bookweb/details.cgi

11.01.2022 Review of Craig Silvey's new book 'Honeybee' out next week. At its core, though, Honeybee is a novel about unconventional kinds of love: standing on that overpass, Sam meets an old man, Vic, who has come to the same place with the same intention, but for each of them, the presence of the other person makes this act suddenly impossible.

11.01.2022 A wonderful book for dog lovers.

07.01.2022 There’s no feeling like finishing a book, and I’m proud of this one. I’ve spent the last few years reflecting on my presidency, and in A Promised Land I’ve trie...d to provide an honest accounting of my presidential campaign and my time in office: the key events and people who shaped it, my take on what I got right and the mistakes I made, and the political, economic, and cultural forces that my team and I had to confront thenand that as a nation we are grappling with still. In the book, I’ve also tried to give readers a sense of the personal journey that Michelle and I went through during those years, with all the incredible highs and lows. And finally, at a time when America is going through such enormous upheaval, the book offers some of my broader thoughts on how we can heal the divisions in our country going forward and make our democracy work for everybodya task that won’t depend on any single president, but on all of us as engaged citizens. Along with being a fun and informative read, I hope more than anything that the book inspires young people across the countryand around the globeto take up the baton, lift up their voices, and play their part in remaking the world for the better.
