The one person who cannot reciprocate her feelings … can he? The one person who she falls madly and hopelessly in love with. The one person who takes Lara seriously and notices her potential. As the eldest, Lara tries to keep upbeat, and the one outlet for all her problems is her diary where she can be open about how dire everything is at home, and worse, the fact that she’s being horrifically bullied at school.Īnd then a shining light comes out of the darkness – the new young and MALE teacher, Mr Jagger. Lara’s life has changed radically since her father lost his job. There’s just one problem – he’s her teacher. I received a copy of this book through NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.įifteen-year-old Lara finds her soulmate. I received my copy of I’ll Take What She Has, from the publisher, Random House, via NetGalley, in exchange for an honest review.ġ/5 I’m not the right audience for this book. If you’re happy, why do you care what others do or think? Which is why I’m fairly sure that Wilde has some unresolved issues about the stay-at-home or go-back-to-work decision. If there’s one thing I’ve learnt through being a parent it’s this: the more another parent bangs on about how fabulous something is, the more they’re trying to justify their decision. Plots need a villain but I get the impression that Wilde has an axe to grind* and she’s doing it through this story. I know this is a standard trope for chick-lit but the plot of Samantha Wilde’s I’ll Take What She Has is predictable and, quite frankly, irritating. Or rather, there are reasons why the other two may hate her. The third woman has things the other two want. Take two women – one wanting a baby and one a stay-at-home-mum – they’ve been best friends for more than twenty years. This may or may not have something to do with a witch named 'Anne Ashby' having been burnt there during Cromwell's time. Steven Kane and Father Dyball accompany him down to the crumbling mansion but Gideon Cross initially dissuades Anne from joining them on account of that particular part of Kent being dangerous for her. When his latest purchase Beacon Old Farm in Medway, Kent, shows signs of being haunted, Langford Layton, Playboy, calls in The Guardians to investigate. An amusing investigation of a haunted house turns to nightmare as Guardian Anne Ashby is transformed into a sadistic wanton, focus of the malignant force of an ancient curse, and an enemy to her fellow-Guardians! wherever and whatever the agents of occult Evil are, The Guardians are there to combat them with their own more-than-mortal powers.

Six years later, Snowden reveals for the very first time how he helped to build this system and why he was moved to expose it. The result would be an unprecedented system of mass surveillance with the ability to pry into the private lives of every person on earth. In 2013, twenty-nine-year-old Edward Snowden shocked the world when he broke with the American intelligence establishment and revealed that the United States government was secretly pursuing the means to collect every single phone call, text message, and email. Edward Snowden, the man who risked everything to expose the US government’s system of mass surveillance, reveals for the first time the story of his life, including how he helped to build that system and what motivated him to try to bring it down. Burgess, a BBC producer from 1946 on, has, in his own words, “dramatized a whole series of such epic war stories,” and does so in this book with a sure hand on the facts and a storyteller’s sense of timing and suspense. Only three of the escapees made it safely to Allied lines 23 were returned to the camp and 50 shot by the Gestapo. This is the gripping story of the tunnel called “Harry,” a 350-foot escape hatch that on the night of March 24, 1944, allowed 76 prisoners to slip out of a high-security German prisoner-of-war camp. The first book was published very shortly after the war, however, and Alan Burgess began to put together a more detailed account after attending a Stalag Luft III reunion in 1986. “The Longest Tunnel” is the historical account of the story already recorded once in the “The Great Escape,” and immortalized (with some adjustments for drama) in the film of the same name. Among the incredible stories that came out of World War II, one of the favorite types is prison-camp escape.
