Who Moved My Mouse -
A Self-Help Book For
Cats Who Dont Need Any
Help
£2.99
While cats may hide their self-doubt behind dismissive 'you bore me' & 'I just sprayed the couch' smirks, underneath they are desperate to introduce meaning into their nine lives. This parody, based on classic self-help texts, has the answers. Has your cat been moping around in that patch of sunlight for more than 23 hours a day? Has kitty been overindulging in Whiskas in order to fill the vast emptiness within? While humans have plenty of self-help books to aid us in times of existential crisis, our feline friends have had to go it alone. Until now. This personal-growth book for cats (and their humans) uses the framework of classic self-help tomes to shed light on universal kitty questions. With chapters like 'A Cat's Conversations with God' & ' The Fur Agreements', this guide will empower cats to make the 20 minutes they're awake each day the best 20 minutes of their lives. ...

Who Needs Mr Darcy?
£1.99
Mr Wickham turned out to be a disappointing husband in many ways, the most notable being his early demise on the battlefields of Waterloo. & so Lydia Wickham, nee Bennet, still not twenty & ever-full of an enterprising spirit, must make her fortune independently. A lesser woman, without Lydia's natural ability to flirt uproariously on the dancefloor & cheat seamlessly at the card table, would swoon in the wake of a dashing highwayman, a corrupt banker & even an amorous Royal or two. But on the hunt for a marriage that will make her rich, there's nothing that Lydia won't turn her hand to... Taking in London, Paris & Brighton, Who Needs Mr Darcy? details the charming, lively & somewhat dastardly further exploits of the youngest Bennet sister. Pride & Prejudice this isn't & Mr Darcy certainly won't be rescuing her this time. ...
