“We’re thrilled to add these great English titles to our offering. These books have been highly anticipated and requested by our users for a long time.

   Dr Robert Langdon is back in the long-awaited next addition to the series that brought us The DaVinci Code and Angels and Demons. Featuring Brown’s signature twists and turns, this story is sure to be a firm favourite among thrillseekers and codebreakers.
2. Daisy Jones and the Six by Taylor Jenkins Reid
   Now a smash-hit TV series, this riff on the lives of rockstars in 1970s LA is a sexy, emotional ride through the band’s conception, rise to success and dramatic split. Love triangles, betrayal, creativity and music are the heart of this furious lament on the price of fame and fortune.
3. Spare by Prince Harry
   Narrated by HRH Prince Harry himself, the controversial royal tells his story in his own words. From life growing up in the glare of the global spotlight, to meeting the love of his life and moving away from official duty, this autobiography is a moving paean to finding oneself against all the odds.
