Jill Mansell, unlike other writers in the rom-com arena, seems to get better with every book she writes. Thinking of You is her latest offering and proves that it is possible to get better with age!
Ginny Holland, a best selling author if left rattling around in her house on her own after daughter Jem goes to university. Lonely, she advertises her spare room for rent. Instead of a happy roommate, she gets moaning Laurel who is still hung up on her ex-boyfriend. If that wasn’t enough, Ginny finds herself lusting after two men who can only be bad for her. Will Ginny get the man of her dreams, or will he be the one that gets away?
Mansell has a disarming ability to create characters that you already know and that tends to make her books impossible to put down. This book is no different. It is charmingly written, hopelessly funny and will make you forget all of your own troubles as soon as you read the first page.

Edward Carter Preston was a significant figure in Liverpool's art scene from World War I through to his death in 1965. In 1931 he received a commission from Sir Giles Gilbert Scott to prepare a major sculptural scheme for the city's monumental Anglican Cathedral. Over the next 30 years Carter Preston made 50 sculptures, ten memorials and several reliefs for the Cathedral. He also worked on a number of smaller architectural projects in Liverpool, Bath, Cambridge and Exeter. Carter Preston had first established himself by winning the competition to design the "Next of Kin Memorial Plaque" in 1918. In the course of his career a further 70 of his medal designs were cast for public institutions and learned societies. Alongside his public achievements he pursued his personal artistic interests, sculpting on a more intimate scale, painting in watercolours, making prints, and designing a range of ornamental and utilitarian objects.This exhibition catalogue contains four essay: "A Family Perspective", by Michael Pugh Thomas; "From Signwriter to Cathedral Sculptor", by Joseph Sharples; "The Artist as Medallist", by Keith Sugden and Phyllis Stoddart; and "Private Pleasures", by Cecilia Crighton.
