I was used to my mind being my best friend. Now, all of a sudden, my mind had turned on me: it mocked me for my vapid enthusiasms; it laughed at all of my foolish plans; it no longer found anything interesting or enjoyable or worthwhile.

In the ice-hockey romance that has taken Tik Tok by storm, the star goalie discovers the family he’s always wanted when he falls in love with a single mother. When it comes to dating, Adam Lockwood wouldn’t know luck if it hit him in the face. After an epic failure of a relationship & a string of dates gone wrong, the thought of being vulnerable with someone is terrifying – most people only see him as a professional athlete. But when his dog runs down Rosie, a beautiful woman with a blush as pink as her hair, she doesn’t seem to have a clue who he is, & Adam seizes the opportunity for what it is: a chance to be himself. Rosie Wells has her hands full as a single mother & fourth-year veterinarian student, & she certainly wouldn’t know a hockey player if she ran into one.

Adam is used to weari... ...

Victoria s teeth sank into Aden s vein, sharp & insistent There was no pain. Her lips, tongue, teeth, something produced a drug that numbed his skin before slithering through his body & fuzzing his brain. Heating him up...making him crave. So good, she whispered. So With a groan, she jerked away from him. Dangerous. His eyes opened to half-mast, & he realised he was no longer outside. He d never taken a step, but his location had changed. Four walls now surrounded him. They were painted white. Everything in the room was white. There was a large, canopied bed with white fur draped over the top. On the vanity rested a vase of white roses, scenting the air so sweetly. Nice, for a coffin... ...

For almost forty years, John Simpson has been covering the biggest news stories of the day & is widely regarded as one our foremost commentators. Now, after decades of groundbreaking journalism, he turns his attention to the way the British press has reported key moments in our history & chart's the development of the reporter's art over the course of the last one hundred years. From the young Churchill on the Boer War to the creation of the Daily Mail, from the coverage of two world wars to Suez, from the Sun's propping up of the Thatcher government to Blair's press machine & weapons of mass destruction, Simpson tells the true stories behind the headlines. The result is an engaging & astute of how Britain has been transformed by its free press. Simpson also examines the ways in which the press itself has changed & reveals, in typically trenchant fashion, how the British press has often knowingly
- & at times irresponsibly
- manipulated events. With his forensic eye for the telling detail, Simpson also asks some searching questions of his own profession, such as whether the press can ever be truly independent
- &, if it can, would we really want it to be. Always incisive, brilliantly readable & never shy of controversy, Unreliable Sources is John Simpson at his considerable best.

Product Description

With an introduction by P. J. ORourke.

I was born in 1939. The other big event of that year was the outbreak of the Second World War, but for the moment that did not affect me.

In the first instalment of Clive Jamess memoirs we follow the young Clive on his journey from boyhood to the cusp of manhood, when his days of wearing short trousers are finally behind him. Battling with school, girls, various relatives & an overwhelming desire to be a superhero, Clives adventures growing up in the suburbs of post-war Sydney are hair-raising, uproarious & almost too good to be true...

Told with Jamess unassailable sense of humour & self-effacing charm, Unreliable Memoirs is a hilarious & touching introduction to the story of a national treasure. A million-copy bestseller, this classic memoir is a celebration of life in all its unpredictable glory.
