Hannah Murray will start by looking at the bestseller lists on Amazon.co.uk and The Sunday Times, the oldest and most influential book sales chart in the UK, and seeing what new entries there are.
Guy Lloyd is the International Sales Manager at Penguin Random House, and joins us once a month to talk all things books. Among other things, this month he's talking about new novels by Colleen Hoover and John Grisham, Liza Minelli's first memoir, new words added to the Cambridge Dictionary, and we look at whether men are being pushed out of publishing.
Sarah Moss has written several novels including the Sunday Times top ten bestseller Summerwater, and Ghost Wall, which was longlisted for the Women's Prize. She has also written two works of memoir. Her new novel 'Ripeness' is a sweeping, engrossing story about familial love and the communities we create, about migration and new beginning, and about what it is to have somewhere to belong.
Linda Rosewood writes about lesbian culture, politics and history. She is a Californian now living in Ireland. Her debut novel 'A Circle Outside' is a comedy of manners set in a commune of lesbian witches. It's a funny, nostalgic and gently subversive novel about Utopian feminism in Northern California in the age of Ronald Reagan.

Harper Ford started out as a writer of historical novels, then found out she was funny during lockdown, so decided to write contemporary women's fiction too. 'Live, Laugh, LEAVE ME ALONE' follows fifty year old Lucy, whose idea of inner peace involves a sofa, wine and a takeaway..until she commits to a wellness bootcamp, enduring five weeks of ice baths, crystals and green juices.
Grace Olson is an author, therapist and animal lover based in Leeds. She is the writer of the bestselling tragicomic memoirs The Yard and the Farm. Grace and her flock of therapy sheep are regularly featured on Channel 5's popular series The Yorkshire Vet. Her latest illustrated children's book 'Rhubarb Finds his Family' is about a little orphan lamb who goes on an adventure to find a new mummy. It's a story of resilience, bravery and love.
Peter Haden was a professional soldier for twenty-five years. He commanded a battalion and served as a staff officer at the highest level in the Ministry of Depence prior to undertaking a successful business career. 'Werner' is his fifth book and the final of the WW2 Jan thriller trilogy. The series was inspired by Peter's Uncle Jan's true story of his escape from Poland across Nazi Germany to the UK in 1939, and is a tribute both to him and the thousands of Poles who fought with the Allies in WW2.
