More than fifteen years after the events of The Handmaid’s Tale , the theocratic regime of the Republic of Gilead maintains its grip on power, but there are signs it is beginning to rot from within. At this crucial moment, the lives of three radically different women converge, with potentially explosive results. Two have grown up as part of the first generation to come of age in the new order. The testimonies of these two young women are joined by a third voice: a woman who wields power through the ruthless accumulation and deployment of secrets. As Atwood unfolds The Testaments , she opens up the innermost workings of Gilead as each woman is forced to come to terms with who she is, and how far she will go for what she believes.

This Horrible History takes you charging back in time to days of chivalry, when knights clanked about in armour waving weapons, peasants cleaned up the mess afterwards, and everyone lived in dark, dingy, horrible homes. Find out about dreadful dungeons, ghastly ghosts, and the famous Saint George.

A New York Times bestseller, this novel was adapted into an Oscar-winning film featuring Bradley Cooper and Jennifer Lawrence. It narrates the poignant journey of a man grappling with his wife's betrayal and his quest for self-discovery. After spending time in a mental health facility, Pat Peoples develops a theory about silver linings, believing his life is a movie directed by God. His goals are to become physically fit, emotionally supportive, and ultimately reunite with his estranged wife, Nikki. Upon returning to his parents' home, Pat finds everything transformed: conversations about Nikki are off-limits, his friends have moved on, the Philadelphia Eagles are losing, and his new therapist seems to endorse infidelity as therapy. His life takes an unexpected turn when he encounters Tiffany, a widowed and clinically depressed woman. She proposes a deal to help him connect with Nikki, requiring him to stop watching football, participate in a Dance Away Depression competition, and keep their agreement secret. As Pat navigates these challenges, he continues to search for his silver lining. This debut novel offers a unique glimpse into Pat's mind, presenting a touching and humorous exploration of depression and love.
