Carla Ciccone

For Carla Ciccone, the feeling of not quite knowing how to perform adult life was all too familiar. 
 
After a lifetime of muddling through shame and self-blame, Carla was finally diagnosed with ADHD at thirty-nine years old. With this late diagnosis came the realisation that her most troubling traits weren’t deep personality flaws, but symptoms. 
 
The knowledge that her ADHD had gone unnoticed all her life felt like a missing puzzle piece. It prompted Carla to explore the cohort of women and girls (the ‘nowhere girls’) that science had ignored. Through scientific research, interviews with experts, and the warmth and wit of her own lived experience, Carla explores how the gendered approach to ADHD left girls just like her to struggle in silence for years. 
 
A powerful and deeply personal account Nowhere Girl is a source of explanation and solace for women who are embarking on their own journey of discovery of life with ADHD.

Andy Webb, the journalist who obtained the secret files that first broke the story, offers unrivalled insider access to the key players in a thrilling narrative spanning thirty years, from the moment Bashir made his first move in 1995 to the 2024 courtroom where Webb faced the BBC's elite legal squad to demand access to highly contested documents relating to the scandal. Filled with revelations that have not yet entered the public record, Dianarama will become a key part in the first draft of history.

Karen Farrington

In 1940, as Britain braced for war, a group of poor London girls were dispatched to a children's home in Ascot to escape the merciless Luftwaffe bombing. At Englemere Wood they came under the care of the formidable but kindly Matron Doris Bailey - the Angel of Englemere - who cherished each girl as her own. 
 
 Through first-hand accounts from the surviving girls, their stories and anecdotes shed light on life at the time - from the emotional upheaval of evacuation to adventures on the royal grounds of their new home - and the work of a woman who helped save a generation.

Nearly 70% of Britain's homeless are women.

In this astonishing dissection of the gender wealth gap, financial journalist Annabelle Williams explains why so few women rank among the super-rich and why women are the majority of those in poverty. From the personal - feeling financially confident and liberated - to the political - demanding systemic support and representation - this ground-breaking exposé will empower your financial decisions and arm you with the knowledge needed to demand equality.

SH**GED. 
Hitting the bars, necking drinks and necking strangers, one-night-stands, nightmare dates, ghosting, tears, more drinking, living off late-night chips. 
 
MARRIED. 
Meeting 'the one', weekends away, moving in, declaring life-long love, stags and hens, the perfect wedding, the honeymoon period, starting a family. 
 
ANNOYED. 
Can you close the bathroom door if you're doing that? Sleepless nights, arguing about whose turn it is to change the baby's nappy, toys everywhere, only having two drinks, still being hungover, wondering when it all stopped being easy. 
 
The Ramseys write hilariously and with honesty about the ups and downs of dating, relationships, arguing, parenting and everything in between.

Sh**ged. Married. Annoyed.

Pete Davies

In 1918, the Spanish Flu killed over forty million people. 
 
More Americans than all the wars the US fought in the entire twentieth century. More than fifteen million in India alone. 
 
For years, scientists have agreed that the next pandemic is not a question of if, but when. 
 
And they were right. 
 
As our planet faces another devastating pandemic, Catching Cold tells the extraordinary story of the urgent and unrelenting global effort to try to protect us. From the inhospitable wastes of the Norwegian Arctic circle to the frenzied food markets of Hong Kong, Davies tracks a small community of experts, working against the clock to uncover what turns a virus into a worldwide disaster, and how best to prevent it - because knowing something's coming is not at all the same thing as being ready for it
