137 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

  • I would be happy to read any, as long as its an interesting book.


  • The Followers….as may give me more insight to the crazy time my daughter is facing as thing’s are very different to how we had it


  • Murder at Rosewood Park would be my choice of book, you had me at cosy crime mystery, I mean doesn’t love the setting and this theme – Fabulous Joan Sauers


  • I’d love to read the missing mother, any book that contains a fresh start, supsense and a bit of darkness is my kind of book.


  • These books sound incredible!!! I’ve barely read a book since my little one was born as I can’t afford to spoil myself anymore. I’d love to sink my teeth into these books!


  • BOOKS BOOKS BOOKS !! WHO DOESN’T LOVE A GREAT BOOK TO READ AND ESCAPE IN !!


  • The missing mother , it sounds like a good mystery!


  • The missing mother , absolutely love thrillers and reviewing them on my insta page! Can tag you guys too ♥️


  • The Followers.. I find online ‘culture’ super interesting… this would be a great read for Summer.


  • Murder at Thornwood Park by Joan Sauers, would be my pick! I love a good mystery, and this sounds like the perfect escape! I’d love to curl up and get lost in the twists and turns, and see if I can solve the murder before the final page! A gripping read is exactly what I need.


  • Love reading, it takes me into a different world. A group of us always share our books and have little discussions on authors


  • I would love to read the missing mother since it looks like a compelling read and I love a good thriller


  • The Followers because I think it is about very relative topics going on with young adults these days.


  • Murder At Thorn park sounds like a gripping mystery that you wont be able to put down


  • I’d pick The Missing Mother because between school runs, laundry, lunches and locating everyone’s missing shoes, I already live in a mystery! I need a gripping thriller I can escape into after bedtime, preferably somewhere nobody asks me “What’s for dinner?” for at least 300 pages. Even my bra deserves a night off!


  • Recently re-reading The Boy in the Striped Pyjamas to make sure my son could handle it completely changed my perspective. Seeing the story through a child’s eyes made the cruelty and innocence hit harder, pushing me to view history, consequences and empathy differently.


  • Murder at Thornwood Park sounds like a book that would make a 7 hour flight to Japan feel like 2 hours.


  • The followers would be my pick. Reason being, my oldest at home is a girl aged 13 and is heavily influenced by social media. I would live to read about the dynamics and fundamentals on dealing with such things. I also have six more children to
    Go through teen hood, and learning the ropes now on how these influences take impact on them, would help me immensely.


  • The Missing Mother. Love a good Psychological thriller. The title pulled me in instantly. Hooked me at wanting more after is ends!


  • The followers cause i’m not a sheep I don’t follow. I’m unique me never follow a crowd. Never read mum loves too I want to fall in love with reading.
