Some of Liv’s favourite books from across the shop.

‘A chance sighting of an old friend prompts the narrator to untangle and reconstruct the tragedies that marred his past and the regret that has haunted him since. Although this book centres around a murder, there’s no mystery, no triumphant resolution and no personal revelation. It is a book about memory, a cast of deeply flawed characters. A musing on – and a mastery of – storytelling.’

‘My Search for Warren Harding is an absolute romp. Plunket chronicles Elliot Weiner’s calamitous quest to get hold of President Warren Harding’s correspondence to his mistress Rebecca Kinney. Only one thing stands in his way – the wizened and unyeilding Kinney herself . . . Desperately funny, wickedly cruel and thoroughly mischievous – the most fun I have had with a novel for a long time.’
