When you see them, they are so happy, so in love. He's holding the door open for her, she's pregnant. You think: she has everything I don't. Everything I ever dreamed of... When Shelley first met Greg, her life had been full of possibility. A whirlwind romance, a dream wedding, moving into their first house together, thinking about starting a family... But now it's ten years since their wedding. Greg has gone. And there's a room in the house where Shelley has shut a baby blanket away. In a box, under a bed, in a spare room, behind a door that she never opens. If it's there, she can forget about it. Just like everything else in that room. Just like her other memories. Of a marriage that perhaps hadn't been perfect. Of a life that hadn't gone the way she had expected. She's been managing to hide from her past. Every day she acts like everything is normal. Going to work and following a routine helps her pretend the bad stuff never happened. Until one day, everything changes. She sees the couple moving in next door, giggling as they walk up the path to their new home. The woman is pregnant. It's like she has everything that Shelley has lost. But when Shelley properly meets Lara, she soon discovers she is in fact carrying a heartache to match Shelley's own. As her friendship with Lara deepens, Shelley starts to wonder what might happen if she opens the box she's hidden away. Will the secrets from her past - about what she lost, what she's hiding from, and what she has been doing her best to forget - destroy her? A heartbreaking emotional drama about the power of friendship that will make readers laugh and cry, perfect for fans of Jojo Moyes, Dani Atkins and Daniela Sacerdoti.

Mrs Dalloway, Virginia Woolf's fourth novel, offers the reader an impression of a single June day in London in 1923. Clarissa Dalloway, the wife of a Conservative member of parliament, is preparing to give an evening party, while the shell-shocked Septimus Warren Smith hears the birds in Regent's Park chattering in Greek. There seems to be nothing, except perhaps London, to link Clarissa and Septimus. She is middle-aged and prosperous, with a sheltered happy life behind her; Smith is young, poor, and driven to hatred of himself and the whole human race. Yet both share a terror of existence, and sense the pull of death. The world of Mrs Dalloway is evoked in Woolf's famous stream of consciousness style, in a lyrical and haunting language which has made this, from its publication in 1925, one of her most popular novels.
Ellie Moran's death leaves her husband Ed with her newborn son and struggling with their loss, but when Ellie's secrecy comes to light, Ed's friend Rachel tries to help Ed find peace and go on living.
