Would value a firsthand story shaped by homelessness, young motherhood and academia. Prefer powerful, compassionate non-fiction that stays with you. EASON FAVOURITE BOOK OF THE YEAR 2023 The No. 1 Bestseller, Biography of the Year, Irish Book Awards 2023 The Last Word Listeners' Choice Award, Irish Book Awards 2023 "One of the best [books] I have read about the complexities of poverty... one of the most remarkable people you will ever meet" – Guardian Like young girls everywhere, Katriona O'Sullivan grew up bright, enthusiastic, and curious. But she was also surrounded by abject poverty and chaos, and after becoming pregnant and homeless at 15, she spent five years barely surviving. Today, Katriona is an award-winning academic whose work explores barriers to education for girls like her. In Poor by Katriona O'Sullivan, she shares what set her on this unexpected path: the mentors and supporters who truly saw her. Teachers who showed her how to wash in the school toilets or visited her home to convince her to sit at least one GCSE exam. A community worker who encouraged her to apply for training schemes. A friend who introduced her to Trinity College’s access program while she was a cleaner. Simple acts that helped her turn her life around. Told with warmth, clarity, and compassion—for her parents, her younger self, and others—Poor is both a powerful personal testimony and an impassioned plea for the future of our children.

The novel combines technical curiosity, suspense and an unusually generous sense of wonder. It is an excellent choice for readers who want space fiction that feels clever, accessible and emotionally involving rather than coldly procedural.

In a world often marked by chaos and uncertainty, it's easy to feel unmoored, as if the ground beneath you is always shifting. Yet, just as Polaris - the North Star - has guided travelers for centuries, this book is here to serve as your compass: a steady reminder that even when the way forward seems unclear, a path always exists. Drawing on the principles of mindfulness and Niall Breslin's sensitive wisdom, it offers practical ways to reconnect with your inner stillness and meet life's challenges with patience and clarity. This isn't about fixing yourself or chasing perfection; it's about rediscovering the steady core within. The journey inward is rarely straightforward-it's uneven and winding, demanding flexibility and self-compassion. But the principles you'll find here can anchor you in turbulent times, guide you back when you drift, and help you make sense of life's heaviest moments. Deeply personal and transformational, this is not a book of rigid rules or quick fixes. Instead, it invites you to slow down, release what no longer serves you, and trust the quiet wisdom that's always been within. It reminds you that everything you need to endure, heal, and move forward is already inside you. By embracing these principles, you'll reconnect with your unshaken self - the part that has never been wounded.- and find your way home.

From Booker Prize winning author David Szalay, comes a propulsive, hypnotic novel about a man whose life is derailed by a series of events that he is unable to control. Fifteen-year-old István lives with his mother in a quiet apartment complex in Hungary. Shy and new in town, he is a stranger to the social rituals practiced by his classmates and soon becomes isolated, with his neighbour — a married woman close to his mother’s age — as his only companion. But as these periodical encounters shift into a clandestine relationship that István himself can barely understand, his life soon spirals out of control, ending in a violent accident that leaves a man dead. What follows is a rocky trajectory that sees István emigrate from Hungary to London, where he moves from job to job before finding steady work as a driver for London’s billionaire class. At each juncture, his life is affected by the goodwill or self-interest of strangers. Through it all, István is a calm, detached observer of his own life, and through his eyes we experience a tragic twist on an immigrant “success story,” brightened by moments of sensitivity, softness and Szalay’s keen observation. Flesh reveals István’s life in intimate moments, with lovers, employers and family members, charted over the course of decades. As the story unfolds, the tension between what is seen and unseen, what can and cannot be said, hurtles forward until finally — with everything at stake — sudden tragedy again throws life as István knows it in jeopardy. Spare and penetrating, Flesh traces the imperceptible but indelible contours of unresolved trauma and its aftermath amid the precarity and violence of an ever-globalising Europe with incisive insight, unyielding pathos and startling humanity.

People think that when you want to change your life, you need to think big. But world-renowned habits expert James Clear has discovered another way.

He calls them atomic habits. In this ground-breaking book, Clear reveals exactly how these minuscule changes can grow into life-altering outcomes. He uncovers a handful of simple life hacks - the forgotten art of Habit Stacking, the unexpected power of the Two Minute Rule, and the trick to entering the Goldilocks Zone - and delves into cutting-edge psychology and neuroscience to explain why they matter.

Her gorgeous, tender husband Daithì and two beloved daughters are regular subjects for her work, and in them she has found the safe home that she has always longed for. She tends not to talk about her past, and those that love her have learned to accept that the full story is too painful for her to disclose. When her Dublin exhibition unexpectedly wins a prestigious award that invites a swarm of publicity, Saoirse is left panic stricken. The unanticipated recognition threatens to expose a decade's worth of buried memories and past crimes. Because what her family and friends don't know is that Saoirse has been on the run since she was seventeen, she has stolen an identity to survive, and whilst Ireland might now be her home, it wasn't her first - and now her past life is poised to reclaim her. The novel weaves between flashbacks to a complicated childhood in Michigan, and Saoirse's journey to and in Ireland to forge safety for herself.

Would value a journey from Germany to London and Dublin in search of hidden truths. Prefer emotionally honest books about belonging and survival. FROM THE EDGE OF DEATH TO THE HEART OF A HIDDEN PAST. Adopted at age three, Paul Cullen always felt like an outsider. After a near-fatal fall from Germany's highest peak in 2017 left him broken - physically and emotionally - he faced a personal reckoning. As he lay injured on the mountain, he knew that if he survived, he could no longer avoid the questions that had haunted him since childhood. What happened in those missing early years? Who cared for him before his adoption? And why was it so hard to find the truth? Outsider follows Paul's search for answers, from a mother and baby home in 1960s London to a suburban estate in 1970s Dublin, in a house lit with love but shadowed by a darker truth. As his body heals, he pieces together the fragments of his identity, confronting the silence of a closed adoption system and the emotional legacy of a hidden past. Courageous and deeply personal, Outsider is a powerful story of survival, belonging and the enduring human need to know where we come from.

'If there's a better LitRPG than Dungeon Crawler Carl, I haven't read it' Shirtaloon, author of He Who Fights Monsters -- You know what's worse than breaking up with your girlfriend? Being stuck with her prize-winning show cat. And you know what's worse than that? An alien invasion, the destruction of all man-made structures on Earth, and the systematic exploitation of all the survivors for a sadistic, intergalactic game show. That's what. And now Coast Guard veteran Carl and his ex-girlfriend's cat, Princess Donut, must try to survive the end of the world-or just get to the next level-in a video game-like, trap-filled, fantasy dungeon.

Raw, strong, sexy, hilarious and unapologetically honest, this is a defiant celebration of self-belief, survival and stardust - proving once and for all why Liza remains one of the most captivating performers the world has ever known.

RED From the author of the multimillion-copy bestseller Normal People, an exquisitely moving story about grief, love and family. Aside from the fact that they are brothers, Peter and Ivan Koubek seem to have little in common. Peter is a Dublin lawyer in his thirties - successful, competent and apparently unassailable. But in the wake of their father's death, he's medicating himself to sleep and struggling to manage his relationships with two very different women - his enduring first love Sylvia, and Naomi, a college student for whom life is one long joke. Ivan is a twenty-two-year-old competitive chess player. He has always seen himself as socially awkward, a loner, the antithesis of his glib elder brother. Now, in the early weeks of his bereavement, Ivan meets Margaret, an older woman emerging from her own turbulent past, and their lives become rapidly and intensely intertwined. For two grieving brothers and the people they love, this is a new interlude - a period of desire, despair and possibility - a chance to find out how much one life might hold inside itself without breaking.

Ideal for readers who: Read memoirs that balance dark material with sharp, surprising humour. Are interested in child stardom, family control and the cost of performance. Want eating disorders, addiction and recovery explored with brutal honesty. Prefer memoir writing that is candid, funny and emotionally fearless. #1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER #1 INTERNATIONAL BESTSELLER MORE THAN 3.5 MILLION COPIES SOLD! A heartbreaking and hilarious memoir by iCarly and Sam & Cat star Jennette McCurdy about her struggles as a former child actor—including eating disorders, addiction, and a complicated relationship with her overbearing mother—and how she retook control of her life. Jennette McCurdy was six years old when she had her first acting audition. Her mother's dream was for her only daughter to become a star, whatever it took, and Jennette would do anything to make her mother happy. So she went along with what her mother called “calorie restriction”, weighing herself five times a day and ultimately shrinking down to 89 pounds. She endured extensive at-home makeovers using knockoff whitening strips, hot curlers, eyelash tint, and gobs of bleach to enhance her “natural beauty”. She was showered by her mother until age sixteen while sharing her diaries, an email account, and all her earnings. The dream finally comes true when Jennette is cast in a new Nickelodeon series called iCarly and is thrust into fame. But for Jennette, the dream is a nightmare. Practically overnight, her fake smile and cheesy airbrushed hairdo are plastered on billboards across the country. And though her mom is ecstatic, ordering her to smile for the paparazzi (with whom she's on a first-name basis) and sign endless autographs for fans who only know her by her character's name, Jennette is riddled with anxiety, shame and self-loathing, which manifest into eating disorders, addiction and a series of unhealthy relationships. These issues only get worse when Jennette's mother dies of cancer. Finally, after discovering therapy and coldly examining the relationship with her mother, Jennette embarks on recovery and decides for the first time in her life what she really wants. Told with raw honesty and equal parts gravity and humour, I'm Glad My Mom Died is a shocking, devastating, and ultimately inspiring story of resilience.

THE SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLER 'I will recommend it to everyone' Alastair Campbell 'World-renowned historian Laurence Rees lays out a past that is also eerily a cautionary tale for our future if we are not careful' Anthony Scaramucci 'There are lots of moments when you can't help but have a shudder through the spine . . . a really novel, interesting book.' Lewis Goodall, The News Agents podcast ___________________________________ How could the Nazis have committed the crimes they did? Why did they willingly - often enthusiastically - oversee mass murder? How did ordinary Germans tolerate the removal of Jewish people? And how do we ensure it never happens again? Bestselling author Laurence Rees combines history and the latest psychological research to help answer the most perplexing questions surrounding the Holocaust and the Nazi state. Through the lens of 'twelve warnings' - from talk about 'them' and 'us' to the escalation of racism - Rees delves into the darkness to explain how and why people were capable of such horrors. Using previously unpublished testimony from former Nazis and cutting-edge psychological discoveries, THE NAZI MIND is a revelatory new way of understanding the most appalling crimes of the 20th century that highlights the warning signs we need to look out for in leaders today. ___________________________________ 'A brilliant piece of work: learned, compelling and frankly terrifying' James Holland, Daily Telegraph '[A] superb, complex study' Christopher Hart, Daily Mail 'Enthralling and chilling . . . compulsive reading' Robert McCrum, Independent

The Sunday Times Number One Bestseller. Over 8 million copies sold around the world. The original book from Morgan Housel, the New York Times bestselling author of Same As Ever . As featured on the Dr Chatterjee podcast Feel Better, Live More and the Diary of a CEO podcast with Steven Bartlett. Doing well with money isn't necessarily about what you know. It's about how you behave. And behavior is hard to teach, even to really smart people. Money - investing, personal finance, and business decisions - is typically taught as a math-based field, where data and formulas tell us exactly what to do. But in the real world people don't make financial decisions on a spreadsheet. They make them at the dinner table, or in a meeting room, where personal history, your own unique view of the world, ego, pride, marketing, and odd incentives are scrambled together. In The Psychology of Money , award-winning author Morgan Housel shares 19 short stories exploring the strange ways people think about money and teaches you how to make better sense of one of life's most important topics.
