Condition: Good. Ten years have passed since Jon Marshall's footloose bachelor days, and he's come a long way. He's a partner in his own practice, owns a nice house in a nice suburb and cruises town in a Beemer. And he has a 6 month old daughter, Lily, affectionately known as the Bean. But life hasn't taken the path Jon guessed it would back in his 20s. Buddies George, Oscar and Wendy coax each other through the challenges - back hair, dating etiquette, and a clumsiness with domestic pets - and Ash breaks all the rules. But it's the Bean who shows him life's possibilities. 372 pages.

Condition: Very Good. Bessie Bawtry was a gifted child who studied hard to escape from a dismal future in the South Yorkshire mining town of Breaseborough, and confused and confounded her parents in the process. Nearly a century later, Faro, her granddaughter, attends a lecture of genetic inheritance. She has returned to the depressed little town to find that all around her are families who have been there for as long as anyone can remember. Could it be that, despite the glamour and the influence of her father's wild, foreign blood, she hasn't really travelled any further than her small-town kin? Margaret Drabble's new novel is a moving portrait of four generations of one family and an absorbing exploration of relationships - familial, historical and genetic. 400 pages.

Book
Condition: Good. Ellie is fourteen and living with her mother at the Woburn hostels in Lower Hutt when the novel opens. There is much she doesn't understand - about men and love and sex, especially. She begins her journey into adulthood alert to its disappointments but also finding talents and passions - and enough love - to sustain and enrich her in unexpected ways. As the story progresses Ellie comes to understand and eventually make peace with her shadow man. Ellie and the Shadow Man moves between the worlds of adolescence and adulthood, between art and domesticity, suburban Wellington and rural Nelson. This richly textured and constantly surprising evocation of one woman's life displays the award-winning Maurice Gee at the height of his powers. 360 pages.

Book
Condition: Good. This is a lively foray into a world where a gentleman with 2,000 a year was betraying his class if he did not employ six females and five males; where a lady could go to the grave without ever having picked up a nightdress, carried her prayer book or made a pot of tea. It is the story of the housekeeper and the butler, the cook, the lady's maid, the valet and the coachman. Their duties are described in detail, and the story is told of the strife and even pitched battles that ensued between servants and the served. Here is social history from a fascinating angle, packed with droll information lightly handled, with many a moral for our own times. 304 pages.
