Liane Moriarty Reveals New Book Called Apples Never Fall

Liane MoriartyExciting news for fans of Liane Moriarty as it has been announced her new book for 2021 is called ‘Apples Never Fall’ and will be released on 14th September 2021.

‘The Sunday Times’ and ‘New York Times’ Number One international bestselling author’s eagerly awaited novel will once again take us behind the closed doors of seemingly tranquil suburbia.

What the back cover says –

From the outside, the Delaneys appear to be an enviably contented family.

Even after all these years, former tennis coaches Joy and Stan are still winning tournaments, and now they’ve sold the family business they have all the time in the world to learn how to ‘relax’.

Their four adult children are busy living their own lives, and while it could be argued they never quite achieved their destinies, no-one ever says that out loud.

But now Joy Delaney has disappeared and her children are re-examining their parents’ marriage and their family history with fresh, frightened eyes.

Is her disappearance related to their mysterious house guest from last year?

Or were things never as rosy as they seemed in the Delaney household?

The author of ‘Big Little Lies’ and ‘Nine Perfect Strangers’ expertly peels away the layers of a family to reveal heartfelt truths, deeply felt wounds and moments of humanity with her signature wit and expert observational powers.

‘Apples Never Fall’ is set to be one of the biggest books of the autumn – 3 million copies of Liane’s books have sold in the UK and over 14 million worldwide. Her previous novel ‘Nine Perfect Strangers’ has sold nearly half a million copies since its release in 2018; the paperback spent 20 consecutive weeks in the top 10 and was the biggest paperback fiction title released in 2019. The TV adaptation, starring Nicole Kidman alongside Melissa McCarthy and Luke Evans, recently finished filming and is due to be released this year by Hulu.

I’ve loved all of Liane’s books and eagerly look forward to this release.

You can pre-order ‘Apples Never Fall’ from Amazon and will be available to buy from good bookshops from 14th September 2021.

Roar By Cecelia Ahern

Roar‘Roar’ is the latest book by Cecelia Ahern.

With her trademark honesty, Cecelia Ahern gives us 30 stories about 30 women, all titled ‘The Woman Who…’, that capture the different facets of women’s lives.

Cecelia Ahern has become one of Ireland’s most successful authors, with her unique voice and charm, her books fly off the shelves and I’m certain that ‘Roar’ will be no different.

Her latest book is a collection of short stories, that focus on the complexities and issues that women across the world have to deal with on a daily basis. But, in her usual style, each story is infused with her lyrical magic that made each story fascinating, witty and poignant reading.

Her stories cover fertility, gender equality, love, confidence and life and each story is even more charming and unique with each page. I particularly loved the stories of the women with the literal ticking clock and the woman who unravelled and melted when stressed. The stories are also relative to our lives and gives us reassurance that we’re not alone when we question how society treats us.

There are 30 stories in the book and vary from 7-10 pages long and can easily be absorbed in one day, I’m proof of that!

An occasionally dark and most certainly inspirational collection of short stories that make for empowering reading, ‘Roar’ is a book for women who want to be heard and not only seen and see encouraging change in our society. Honest, frank and heartbreaking in parts, it’s no wonder it’s already been picked by Nicole Kidman for production.

You can pre-order Roar: A story for every woman, from the Sunday Times bestselling author from Amazon and will be available to buy from good bookshops from 1st November 2018.
