An astounding debut. I love this story!
Time and space combine to tell a multi faceted tale of believable characters who battle the forces that think they can dictate history. Some things never change.
___________________________
Nuremberg, 1938. Lisavet Levy’s watchmaker father saves her from the Nazis by pushing her through a mysterious doorway. There, she discovers the Time Space – a vast, magical library where the memories of everyone who has ever lived are stored in books. Her father promises to follow, but he never comes. Trapped in the library, she encounters timekeepers, who decide whose memories survive and whose are destroyed. Lisavet tries to save as many memories as she can, but when she falls in love with a timekeeper, the whole course of history could be at stake.

A wonderful work of nonfiction linking the true story of amazing people who worked tirelessly together to bring joy from tragedy – a nine year old boy’s heart transplant made possible.
___________________________________
The first of our organs to form, the last to die, the heart is both a simple pump and the symbol of all that makes us human: as long as it continues to beat, we hope. One summer day, nine-year-old Keira suffered catastrophic injuries in a car accident. Though her brain and the rest of her body began to shut down, her heart continued to beat. In an act of extraordinary generosity, Keira’s parents and siblings agreed that she would have wanted to be an organ donor. Meanwhile nine-year-old Max had been hospitalised for nearly a year with a virus that was causing his young heart to fail. When Max’s parents received the call they had been hoping for, they knew it came at a terrible cost to another family. This is the unforgettable story of how one family’s grief transformed into a lifesaving gift.

A fun and perfectly executed academic rivals-to-lovers romance. This story follows Olive, a biology PhD student who people-pleases her way into fake dating a young professor. Ali Hazelwood is the best at fun, silly, spicy romances with just a sprinkle of commentary about women in STEM fields. This is my favourite of hers, check it out before the film comes out later this year!
________________________
When a fake relationship between scientists meets the irresistible force of attraction, it throws one woman’s carefully calculated theories on love into chaos. As a third-year Ph.D. candidate, Olive Smith doesn’t believe in lasting romantic relationships but her best friend does, and that’s what got her into this situation. Convincing Anh that Olive on her way to a happily ever after was always going to be tough, scientists require proof. So, like any self-respecting woman, Olive panics and kisses the first man she sees. That man is none other than Adam Carlsen, a young hotshot professor and well-known ass. Which is why Olive is positively floored when he agrees to keep her charade a secret and be her fake boyfriend. But when a big science conference goes haywire and Adam surprises her again with his unyielding support, their little experiment feels dangerously close to combustion.

“This is a top contender for my favourite book of all time. It follows a disillusioned civil servant sent to check in on a house for magical children by the sea. The people and places he discovers there end up turning his life around. Klune is a master at evoking the most beautiful, whimsical setting. This story is just so heart-warming and sweet, providing an escape and a source of inspiration for anyone stuck in the mundanity of day-to-day life.”

Linus Baker is sent to assess a magical orphanage, filled with dangerous children. They could bring about the end of everything – or be the family he’d always wanted. A beautiful, cosy fantasy tale with a slow-burn romance at its heart.
