Spotlight: New books
The Commonsense Cookery Book (641 COM) is new to non-fiction.
First published in 1914, this is the perfect book for anyone who cooks – from beginners who are just starting out, to those who are more experienced and want a delicious tried-and-true, no-fuss recipe that works every time.
Lorna Cook has written The Lost Memories (AF COO).
Suffolk, 1944. American pilot Charlie’s second tour is about to draw to a close, but his heart is forever changed when he meets Kitty, a local girl with dreams of joining the Women’s Land Army. As love blooms, the pair are all too aware that every perilous mission Charlie flies may well be his last…
Suffolk, 2011. When Kitty’s granddaughter and ambitious tearoom owner Amy meets American tourist and photographer Jack, she agrees to show him around in exchange for his photographic talents. The deal quickly grows into an unexpected bond – but when long-buried secrets emerge, neither of their worlds will ever be the same again…
The enigmatic Dr Karl has just released a memoir and it’s fresh to biographies.
Karl’s story teaches us that you don’t have to know all the answers, as long as you ask the right questions. He has wandered down more than a dozen career paths, from being a TV weatherman (really) to a professional four-wheel drive tester in the outback (really) to being a roadie for Bo Diddley (really). All of these seemingly random experiences have helped create the Karl we know today.
In this long-awaited memoir, you will learn that it’s okay to not take a linear path through life, and that by following our curiosities and our passions, we can bend the universe to our liking.
