The hilarious and heart-warming second in the series from the
author of The Wedding Diaries. "I'd be sick right now, but I never
like to reinforce a cliché." A few weeks after Kiki and Thom
return from honeymoon, Kiki finds there's a noticeable absence. An
extremely serious noticeable absence of something, it turns out,
Kiki now realises she was pretty glad about. One pregnancy test
later, Kiki's breaking the "good news" (Thom: Wow. We're so…
Edwardian.) and rewriting all the plans she'd made before. With an
ever-expanding waistline, her nightmare childhood "friend" Annie
pregnant too, all the problem authors at Polka Dot Books she could
(not) wish for and an army of NW London's Smug Mothers to deal
with, these nine months might not be the nine months of blooming
relaxation she'd been promised…

"Solà pushes past the limits of human experience to tell a
story of instinct and earth-time that is irresistible in its jagged
glory." - C Pam Zhang, author of How Much of These Hills is Gold
When Domenec - mountain-dweller, father, poet, dreamer - dies
suddenly, struck by lightning, he leaves behind two small children,
Mia and Hilari, to grow up wild among the looming summits of the
Pyrenees and the ghosts of the Spanish civil war. But then Hilari
dies too, and his sister is forced to face life's struggles and
joys alone. As the years tumble by, the inhabitants of the mountain
- human, animal and other - come together in a chorus of voices to
bear witness to the sorrows of one family, and to the savage beauty
of the landscape. This remarkable English-language debut is
lyrical, mythical, elemental, and ferociously imaginative.
The journey to 100 friends begins with a single conversation.
Socially anxious high school student Shoko Komi’s greatest dream
is to make some friends, but everyone at school mistakes her
crippling social anxiety for cool reserve. Luckily she meets
Tadano, a timid wallflower who decides to step out of his comfort
zone in order to help her achieve her goal of making 100 friends.
Tadano’s sister and mom are super supportive about his romantic
prospects—they just somehow got the wrong idea about who he’s
dating! So it comes as a bit of a shock to them when he introduces
Komi as his new girlfriend. Awkwardness abounds, but after three
years of intense training, Komi is ready to face the challenge of
talking to her boyfriend’s family!
