Louise Rennison

Sound the Cosmic Horn! Bestselling author Louise Rennison's seventh book of the confessions of crazy but loveable teenager Georgia Nicolson is out in PB! Why did I admit I wanted Masimo to be my proper boyfriend? Why? One minute he was snogging me, and then the next he was snogging Wet Lindsay, stick insect and drip. Perhaps I should tell him he can go out with her as well as me! But then I might snog him after she has snogged him, which would mean I have practically snogged her!!! Erlack! I would rather snog my cat, Angus! He has certainly got nicer legs! Well, more of them anyway. Georgia is on the 'rack of luuurve' once more! Will Masimo the Italian Stallion agree to be her one and only boyfriend? How does she really feel about her old friend and lip-nibbling partner Dave the Laugh? And has Robbie the Sex God really gone for good? You'll laugh with her and cry with her - follow Georgia's hilarious antics as she desperately tries to muddle her way through teenage life.

Alexander McCall Smith

The story revolves around the comings and goings at №44 Scotland Street, a fictitious building in a real street in Edinburgh. Immediately recognisable are the Edinburgh chartered surveyor, stalwart of the Conservative Association, who dreams of membership of Scotland's most exclusive golf club. We have the pushy Stockbridge mother, and her prodigiously talented five-year-old son, who is making good progress with the saxophone and with his Italian. Then there is Domenica Macdonald who is that type of Edinburgh lady who sees herself as a citizen of a broader intellectual world. In McCall Smith's hands such characters retain charm and novelty, simultaneously arousing both mirth and empathy. 44 Scotland Street is vintage McCall Smith, tackling issues of trust and honesty, snobbery and hypocrisy, love and loss, but all with great lightness of touch. Clever, elegant and funny, this is a novel that provides huge entertainment but which is underpinned by the moral dilemmas of everyday...

In a phenomenal career lasting from 1887 to 1959 - seventy-two years -Frank Lloyd Wright completed some five hundred buildings as well as an equal number of unbuilt projects. His legacy includes world-famous designs from Fallingwater to the Guggenheim Museum plus hundreds of houses that grace the often-modest streets on which they stand. "50 Favourite Rooms by Frank Lloyd Wright" presents the best-loved interiors from all of Wright's prodigious achievements in architecture. These spectacular rooms show Wright's trademarks, the techniques he devised to revolutionize architecture.
