Cruel Truth
What if Anita and Cruella were best friends? It’s 1953, and teenage Anita Weatherby and her family have just moved to a booming postwar London. While her older sister settles right in, to the delight of their parents, Anita finds their new school—and her academic rival, Roger Radcliffe—daunting. Nothing seems to be going Anita’s way until a glamorous, confident new student moves to town. Stella De Vil is haughty and aloof—but surprises everyone by taking an immediate liking to Anita. Swept into the luxurious world of Stella’s highend family fashion label, Anita soon finds herself the anticipated star of the House of De Vil’s next fashion show, where she’ll be modelling a family heirloom, the Weatherby diamond, and walking the catwalk with two adorable Dalmatian puppies to raise awareness for a local animal shelter. But when disaster strikes and the Weatherby diamond goes missing, Anita will have to decide whom she can trust before her life goes to the dogs.

The Dharug word refers to the meeting of salt and fresh waters, and it was a site of sharing knowledge and gathering resources for millennia. Then in 1788 it became known as Cattle Point and had four more names before it became the site of the Opera House, and culture, art and knowledge were again shared upon its land.

Would you miss your shadow if you had to relinquish it?
Watashi has moved to a small isolated town to work in a library escaping his past –
a past life that included a young love and a mysterious city with high walls you can
only enter, minus your shadow. I loved this surreal and introspective read from Murakami.

As a 90’s pop music superfan, I found it fascinating to read about the former S Club 7 stars personal struggles behind the spotlight. Facing the Music is Hannah’s raw and inspiring journey to fame, filled with heartbreak and eventually finding her voice again.
It’s very honest, emotional and empowering – this is a story you didn’t know you needed.
