"Isla is the best, the funniest, the cleverest, the most enjoyable writer in Scotland today. . . . you would enrich your life beyond all measure by discovering Isla Dewar." ---Robin Pilcher, New York Times bestselling author In this funny and charming novel, Megs is a woman whose ordinary life is about to become absolutely extraordinary. . . . When Megs became a house cleaner to make ends meet as a single mother of three, she didn't realize that people would be so blinded by the cleansers and mops, they would fail to see her as an actual human being.

Megs sings the sultry blues at a club each weekend, begins a secret affair, and drinks her troubles away with her saucy best friend, Lorraine---all while trying to keep her children happy and her head above water. But with help from an eccentric professor whose house she cleans, her life is about to get a shot in the arm. Megs begins to speak her mind, stand up for herself, and live her life in color.

Merci Suárez Changes Gears
Author: Meg Medina
Publisher: Candlewick Press
ISBN: 1536204099
Category : Juvenile Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 299
Book Description
Winner of the 2019 Newbery Medal Thoughtful, strong-willed sixth-grader Merci Suarez navigates difficult changes with friends, family, and everyone in between in a resonant new novel from Meg Medina. Merci Suarez knew that sixth grade would be different, but she had no idea just how different. For starters, Merci has never been like the other kids at her private school in Florida, because she and her older brother, Roli, are scholarship students. They don’t have a big house or a fancy boat, and they have to do extra community service to make up for their free tuition. So when bossy Edna Santos sets her sights on the new boy who happens to be Merci’s school-assigned Sunshine Buddy, Merci becomes the target of Edna’s jealousy. Things aren't going well at home, either: Merci’s grandfather and most trusted ally, Lolo, has been acting strangely lately — forgetting important things, falling from his bike, and getting angry over nothing. No one in her family will tell Merci what's going on, so she’s left to her own worries, while also feeling all on her own at school. In a coming-of-age tale full of humor and wisdom, award-winning author Meg Medina gets to the heart of the confusion and constant change that defines middle school — and the steadfast connection that defines family.

The Single Mums' Mansion

Publisher: Bloomsbury Publishing
ISBN: 1788545680
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 346
Book Description
When your husband moves out, move your best friends in... Amanda Wilkie unexpectedly finds herself alone with her three children in a rambling Victorian house in London. Her husband leaves them, claiming he's just 'lost the love', like one might carelessly lose a glove. A few months later, Amanda's heavily pregnant friend, Ali, crashes into her kitchen announcing her husband is also leaving. So, after Ali's baby Grace is born, they both move into Amanda's attic. And when Jacqui, a long-lost friend and fellow single mum, starts dropping by daily, the household is complete. Getting divorced is no walk in the park, but the three friends refuse to be defined by it. And, as they slowly emerge out of the wreckage like a trio of sequin-clad Gloria Gaynors singing 'I Will Survive', they realise that anything is possible. Even loving again... Based on Janet's true story, The Single Mums' Mansion is a laugh-out-loud tour de force which will make you laugh, cry and treasure your best friends even more than before. Perfect for fans of Marian Keyes, Gill Sims and Tracy Bloom. Praise for The Single Mums' Mansion: 'There was something inherently charming and satisfying about how imperfect everyone is within the story' C. R. Elliott. 'I cannot wait to tell friends about it as I am sure they will enjoy as much as I did' Molly Stulmaker. 'Once I was done, I kept hearing "I will survive" in my head' Cheryl Weaver. 'An intriguing and fun read, purely delightful' Gaele Hince. 'I absolutely ADORED reading The Single Mums' Mansion' Amanda Oughton.
