Famesick by Lena Dunham
In Famesick, a frank, deeply personal reflection on illness, fame, sex, and everything in between, Lena Dunham – the mind behind the hit series Girls and Too Much, and the bestselling author of Not That Kind of Girl – explores, amongst many other things, whether fulfilling her creative ambitions has been worth the pain it’s caused.
Chronicling the tumultuous decade between the premiere of Girls to her 2021 shotgun wedding, Dunham takes us through her journey with her trademark mix of humour, unsparing honesty, and keen eye for detail.

The Book Witch by Meg Schaffer
She can hop into any novel, she just can’t stay there. Come along with the book witch Rainy March in this magical and inspiring love letter to reading from the USA Today bestselling author of The Wishing Game.
Book witches live by a strict set of rules – real people belong in the real word; fictional characters belong in works of fiction. Do not eat, drink, or sleep inside a fictional world, lest you become part of the story. Falling in love with a fictional character? Don’t even think about it.
Which is why Rainy has been forbidden from seeing the Duke of Chicago, and if she’s ever caught with him again, she’ll be expelled from her book coven. Cue predictable chaos…
