How would you live your life differently, if you had a second chance?
Emily, Carl and Jules have all 'gone before their time'. After dying on the same day in Halifax, West Yorkshire, they each wake up in a room in a hotel on the outskirts of town. They're instructed to meet in the basement headquarters of film production company 'End Credits', where no-nonsense producer Suzi tells them their lives have been secretly filmed and they must edit their own biopic before they are able to move on.
There are only three rules: they can't prevent their own deaths or anyone else's, they can't kill anyone but they can make a director's cut - one change which will alter everything that comes after.
With the chance to undo their regrets and explore life's infinite possibilities, what will they choose?

"The brilliantly observed, witty and heart-warming new book club read from Richard & Judy bestseller Linda Green
**Alexa knows your family better than you do. Now you're about to get to know her. . . **
Fifty-two-year-old Michelle Banks is struggling to keep all the plates spinning. She's a perimenopausal district nurse, caring for elderly parents. Her husband is wasting their money on children's TV memorabilia, her teenage daughter is riddled with anxiety and her sixteen-year-old son is behaving secretively.
Alexa is the only one who knows how much Michelle is juggling. Listening in via four smart speakers, she also knows that it's about to get even worse.
So, when Michelle pleads for help from the woman with all the answers, Alexa decides to go rogue and reveal her true identity as Pauline - a sixty-five-year-old former voiceover artist from Halifax - to teach Michelle everything she knows. . .
Wise, funny, relatable and inspiring, The Woman With All The Answers is perfect for fans of Clare Pooley, Mike Gayle and David Nicholls.

"Devotional giving help and encouragement for Christian moms.
Motherhood is one of life's most joyful yet most difficult gifts. We are eager to get it "right," yet parenting usually highlights our weaknesses and leaves us worried about our mistakes.
These hope-filled, positive devotions recognize the realities and pressures, joys and disappointments of motherhood and will give you a precious reminder of grace from God's word to hold onto each day. They will help you to trust that God's grace is enough for you and your kids. As the authors say in the introduction, "Our children do not need a perfect mother. What they do need is a mother who recognizes her need for a perfect Savior and understands that this is the greatest need of her children as well."
As you focus on the work of Jesus rather than your own efforts, you will feel less pressure and more freedom and joy in all the ups and downs of motherhood.
Written by a mother-daughter combination (one with four kids aged 10-16, one with three grown kids and ten grandchildren) who are both grateful recipients of God's grace and faithfulness in the many seasons, situations, and realities of motherhood."
