In Savannah, Georgia, in 1969, segregation was coming to an end. Butternut chocolate bars was the number one candy. The Ford Falcon was a family car. Neighbors were really neighbors. Children stayed in a child's place. School bullies took the weaker kids' lunch money and beat them up, but often, the bully and the bullied became best friends. God was the focal point of everything in 1969. O Happy Day! follows its hero, Zeric Washington, a nine-year-old African American. Zeric is not the traditional hero. He's not strong and unusually brave. He's not the stud of all boys. He's often called "sissy." He's often picked on. He's often threatened because he is different. God has smiled on him though. Through his unexpected anointing, he changes the heart of a bully. He restores his parents' disintegrating marriage. He brings a playboy producer closer to God. Through his lovely singing voice, which was the reason he was picked on and bullied, he is taken to unforeseen adventures and lives change along the way. First-time love, brotherly love, fear of the unknown, the pain a child feels when a parent is caught cheating, the tragic demise of a onetime-enemy-turned great friend-all and much more are examined through the eyes of a nine-year-old innocent chosen-by-God in O Happy Day!

A funny, thoughtful novel about friendship, romance, laughter, and shopping—with some drunken karaoke thrown in—by the author of Lily’s Little Flower Shop. Will she get more than a tan? On an all-expenses-paid holiday, Claudia Taylor jets off to glorious Santorini with her two best friends, Tara and Sophie. But when her simple task of handing over a flash drive becomes complicated, and the handsome Jack tries to romance her, Claudia’s holiday becomes less relaxing than she’d hoped. Sophie, a former high-flying lawyer turned mother of one, is no longer sure what the future holds. Tara is toying with the idea of leaving her less-than-satisfying job to realize a long-held ambition to be a writer. After taking stock of their lives will they all find what they are looking for? One thing is for sure, life will never be the same for Claudia and her friends after their much-needed holiday in paradise.

With its unparalleled coverage of English slang of all types (from 18th-century cant to contemporary gay slang), and its uncluttered editorial apparatus, Cassell's Dictionary of Slang was warmly received when its first edition appeared in 1998. 'Brilliant.' said Mark Lawson on BBC2's The Late Review; 'This is a terrific piece of work - learned, entertaining, funny, stimulating' said Jonathan Meades in The Evening Standard.But now the world's best single-volume dictionary of English slang is about to get even better. Jonathon Green has spent the last seven years on a vast project: to research in depth the English slang vocabulary and to hunt down and record written instances of the use of as many slang words as possible. This has entailed trawling through more than 4000 books - plus song lyrics, TV and movie scripts, and many newspapers and magazines - for relevant material.
