Got You Back
Once again Jane Fallon turns ‘chick lit\' on its head and offers us instead ‘chick noir\'. As the award winning producer of shows such as Teachers and This Life it\'s only right to expect a bit of sass and humour from this unique voice. Got You Back has the typical cheating husband but that\'s where the chick lit clichés stop, for wife and mistress aren\'t going to take his lying ways lying down. Together they hatch a plan to teach him a lesson that he\'ll never forget. But revenge isn\'t always sweet, and when one woman thinks enough is enough and the other refuses to quit, there isn\'t going to be a happy ending.

The Sorrows Of An American
Author of the acclaimed What I Loved, Siri Hustvedt again waxes philsophical on family, grief, art and loss. After his father\'s death, psychoanalyst Erik returns to his sleepy Midwestern hometown to help his widowed sister Inga sort through their father\'s possessions, finding mystery instead of answers and obsession with an artist who lives downstairs. As an interesting touch, Hustvedt uses her own father\'s journals from WWII and the Depression era, lending an otherworldly feel to this intelligent tale.

Addition
Toni Jordan\'s debut is a love story but not as you know them. The leading lady of this novel, Grace, has a problem in that she loves to count. Everything. The letters in her name (19). The steps she takes every morning to the local cafe (920). The number of poppy seeds on her orange cake... you see how all consuming this problem could be. But counting gives her confidence and ensures there are no nasty surprises in store. But she wasn\'t counting on meeting Seamus Joseph O\'Reilly, after stealing a banana from his shopping to make her banana count up to 10, and he doesn\'t think the counting is such a good idea. Thus follows an interesting and heart warming tale of Grace struggling to find a balance between her old habits and her new love.
