Description

THE BESTSELLING NEW SERIES FOR KIDS, TOLD ENTIRELY IN THE FORM OF A GROUP CHAT, FROM AWARD-WINNING AUTHOR AND COMEDY-WRITER, EMILY-JANE CLARK.

Welcome to the group chat! It’s called Cringe Club because, as you might have guessed, it contains a cringe binge of EPIC proportions. 

My name is Kennedy King and I have been FORCED to move to London by The Mother. I have just started Hellington High School (aka HELL HIGH). The only GOOD thing about moving is that The Mother has finally agreed to let me have my own phone (guilt present) so I can stay in touch with my best friends. Enter at your own risk (of cringe) and remember . . . what is said in Cringe Club, STAYS in Cringe Club.

  • Features themes of fitting in and making friends, starting a new school and (most importantly) embracing your cringe!
  • For readers aged 8+ with illustrations throughout
  • Perfect for fans of Lottie Brooks and Dork Diaries

  • “I struggle to get my teen to read books so it was wonderful to see her enjoying this one so much”
  • “An ideal gift for any tween or teen”
  • “This book has got my very reluctant reader to not only pick up a book, but devour it with a passion”

*Cringe Club was an Amazon #1 bestseller in Children’s Books on Marriage & Divorce on 24/08/2025

House of Books and Friends cannot wait to host Lisa Ownes on Wednesday 1st July to discuss her new title ‘Natural Disaster'. 🐍🔥

The evening will begin at 6pm, and involve a discussion, a Q&A, and a chance to get your book signed by Lisa. Lisa will be in conversation with our bookseller, Lily.

About the book

For weeks, she has been saying it will be their special day. One last, perfect day with her children before she returns to work after maternity leave. What’s the worst that can happen?

Unfolding across 24 hours, Natural Disaster is a novel about the absurd, frustrating, hilarious, precarious, bittersweet, sometimes astonishing challenge – literal, existential – of being a woman, a mother, a wife, a person for one single, entire day.

Get tickets via the link in our bio! 🎟

June 15th - 21st 2026 is a week dedicated to loneliness awareness. Loneliness is something we all experience and by taking part you can create space for more open conversations and meaningful connections. 
2026 marks 10 years of the campaign, and this year’s theme is Giving Loneliness a Voice. By sharing real, human stories of loneliness – and the wonderful power of understanding and connection – together we can make people experiencing loneliness feel less alone.
Here are some fiction and non-fiction recommendations that we feel gives loneliness a voice and fosters empathy for those struggling to form connections.
