Red, White & Royal Blue


Book Description

* Instant NEW YORK TIMES and USA TODAY bestseller * * GOODREADS CHOICE AWARD WINNER for BEST DEBUT and BEST ROMANCE of 2019 * * BEST BOOK OF THE YEAR* for VOGUE, NPR, VANITY FAIR, and more! * What happens when America's First Son falls in love with the Prince of Wales? When his mother became President, Alex Claremont-Diaz was promptly cast as the American equivalent of a young royal. Handsome, charismatic, genius—his image is pure millennial-marketing gold for the White House. There's only one problem: Alex has a beef with the actual prince, Henry, across the pond. And when the tabloids get hold of a photo involving an Alex-Henry altercation, U.S./British relations take a turn for the worse. Heads of family, state, and other handlers devise a plan for damage control: staging a truce between the two rivals. What at first begins as a fake, Instragramable friendship grows deeper, and more dangerous, than either Alex or Henry could have imagined. Soon Alex finds himself hurtling into a secret romance with a surprisingly unstuffy Henry that could derail the campaign and upend two nations and begs the question: Can love save the world after all? Where do we find the courage, and the power, to be the people we are meant to be? And how can we learn to let our true colors shine through? Casey McQuiston's Red, White & Royal Blue proves: true love isn't always diplomatic. "I took this with me wherever I went and stole every second I had to read! Absorbing, hilarious, tender, sexy—this book had everything I crave. I’m jealous of all the readers out there who still get to experience Red, White & Royal Blue for the first time!" - Christina Lauren, New York Times bestselling author of The Unhoneymooners "Red, White & Royal Blue is outrageously fun. It is romantic, sexy, witty, and thrilling. I loved every second." - Taylor Jenkins Reid, New York Times bestselling author of Daisy Jones & The Six

It's Your Time You're Wasting


Book Description

Frank Chalk is a teacher in a fairly poor inner city school - a school where the kids get drunk, take drugs and beat up the teachers... when they can be bothered to turn up. He confiscates their porn, booze and trainers, fends off angry parents and worries about the few conscientious pupils. Terrifying and hilarious, IT'S YOUR TIME YOU'RE WASTING is Chalk's real-life diary from the front line of the modern edukashun system. This book is a real word-of-mouth title. Think of comic genius Chris Lilley's "SUMMER HEIGHTS HIGH meets WASTING POLICE TIME by PC David Copperfield! Frank Chalk is a pseudonym for a disgruntled teacher in an inner city school in the UK - "a school where the kids get drunk, take drugs and beat up the teachers when they can be bothered to show up". Just like PC Copperfield in WASTING POLICE TIME, it's blackly and bleakly humorous. It's the diary of life on the front line but in this case, it's in the modern edukashun system. Fighting apathy, Frank has to battle the tearaways, their parents, and he worries about the few conscientious pupils. He muses on the shortcomings of the staff (including his own) while confiscating porn and booze and even spots the odd spark of hope amid all the despair. The appalling decline of education in the UK is very much mirrored here in Australia and this book is perfectly timed for the "Back to School Year". Frank Chalk was discovered via his popular blogsite: www.frankchalk.blogspot.com Frank taught for 16 years in state schools. He left the profession in late 2005 while still in his early 40s, having grown impossibly frustrated with working in the public sector education. He now runs his own business and is no longer involved in education (sensible bastard!). He's married to a teacher (poor bastard).
