215 Entriess

Love getting lost in a good book? We’ve got the perfect prize for your next reading binge!

Thanks to Allen & Unwin, we’re giving you the chance to win one of 10 book packs, each packed with three compelling reads worth $104.97.

From gripping psychological suspense to clever cosy crime and a sharp, thought-provoking look at girlhood and social media, there’s something here for every kind of reader. Each pack includes The Followers by Maree Spratt, The Missing Mother by Mali Cornish and Murder at Thornwood Park by Joan Sauers.

The Followers by Maree Spratt

The Followers is a sharp debut that explores themes of peer pressure, girlhood, identity, social capital, and how schoolyard dynamics translate to social media.

‘I could not put this book down: Maree Spratt’s characters gripped me from the first sentence. The Followers is a sophisticated and serious satire, showing the machinations of the minds of young pre-teen girls with the depth they so deserve, but rarely get, in literature.’ Alice Pung
AUD $34.99

The Missing Mother by Mali Cornish

A razor-sharp psychological suspense thriller for fans of Gillian Flynn about the family secrets that bind us – and break us.

‘Richly observed and deliciously dark. I defy you not to fall for this damaged narrator who sees what other people don’t. This is a story of trying (and failing) to leave your past behind, delivered with a stylish and sly malevolence that lingers long after the last page. Mali Cornish is a gift from the writing gods.’ Hayley Scrivenor, author of Dirt Town and Girl Falling
AUD $34.99

Murder at Thornwood Park: A Rose McHugh Mystery by Joan Sauers

For lovers of smart and witty cosy crime. Set within an intriguing village community of friends, neighbours (and enemies), all living at the edge of the atmospheric forests of the mysterious Southern Highlands, historian turned detective, Rose McHugh, channels her expert skills to solve an historical series of murders.
AUD $34.99

  • Murder at Thornwood Park: I’m a lifelong bookworm fuelled by tea and cosy crime. A clever historian, village secrets, misty forests? This is my type of book!


  • The Missing Mother by Mali Cornish. With newborn Ezra, my reading happens in snatched chapters during 3am feeds, so I need something gripping enough to keep me awake but easy to put down when he does. A fresh Aussie page-turner would make night shifts something to look forward to.


  • The Followers as everyone is like a sheep in everyday life


  • Id love to win this for my mum. Completely housebound at age 95, mum lives for her books. She’d love all of these


  • I have a gorgeous book shelf that is waiting for these books to arrive. I am a book worm when I get time to read. Raising 7 kids doesn’t let me get much time to myself but when k do I love to read.


  • These all look great but i think id read Murder at Thornwood park first. Love a good murder mystery and the associated mental challenge of unearthing the murderer before books conclusion!


  • I would most love to read Murder at Thornwood Park by Joan Sauers because I am a huge fan of clever cosy crime. Set in an atmospheric village community on the edge of the Southern Highlands, following a historian turned detective as she solves a historical series of murders sounds like the ultimate suspenseful page-turner.

  • The Missing Mother because I love reading psychologic thrillers.


  • The only way I will find out answers to the historical murders is to read “Murder at Thornwood Park”. Modern techniques will improve the chances of finding out the identity of the murderer. I like to think at last they didn’t get away with it.


  • The Missing Mother because I could do with a being gripped. A good gripping me needs.


  • The Missing Mother. I’m always drawn to stories about family dynamics, secrets and the psychology behind why people do what they do.
