Millie of the Manor

£10.99

Amy has always loved a good mystery. So when her classmate Reagan invites her to a murder-mystery-themed birthday party, she should be ecstatic. But she’s not. Instead, she’s worried that her social anxiety will mess everything up. Thankfully, all the guests are given characters to play for the night, so Amy doesn’t have to go to Reagan’s party as herself – she’ll go as ‘Millie Morgan’, a scientist looking to solve the murder and clear her name. With newfound confidence as Millie, she must work with the other partygoers to solve the crime. But when evidence piles up and clues begin to incriminate her alter ego, Amy’s anxiety comes rushing back. With the help of her new friends, Amy must learn to navigate her own anxiety as Millie works to solve the mystery and prove her innocence.

As part of our Connection Counts campaign this November, bookseller Lydia would like to recommend Rainer Maria Rilke’s Letters to a Young Poet. 🌟

Rilke’s letters, written to a young military cadet looking to establish a career in poetry, are like spiritual sustenance. His advice on creative solitude is relevant to this day. His writing on loneliness manages to both validate the feeling and fortify against despair. This is a must read for anyone in need of some connection and consolation in a difficult age. 🌷

This month we’re highlighting the importance of connection with our ‘Connections Count’ campaign. HOBAF is all about connection, with our mission statement being to tackle social isolation and loneliness. Our bookworms will be highlighting books about connection all through November, as well as hosting our Coffee & Connections campaign to bring people together.

In Tawada's trilogy, Hiruko searches for someone who speaks her native language in a world where her country has ceased to exist. As her search brings new friends into her life, we examine what it means to belong, to feel at home, and whether our roots are truly all that ground us. Scattered All Over the Earth was released in 2023, and 2025 sees part two and three of the series released to UK audiences and available to pick up in-store now ⭐🌄
