'An outpouring of truth, wit, and beautiful comedic wisdom from the hilarious and laudably liberated Grace Campbell. I loved it.'-Katherine Ryan 'Grace has written such a funny and interesting book, partly because she has a unique perspective of the world, but mostly because of her own brilliant mind.'-Sara Pascoe'This book is hilarious, Grace is a bloody badass, finally my vagina has a voice!'-London Hughes 'This book is revolutionary. It's powerful, bold, vulnerable, beautiful, hilarious, universal, unique.'-Scarlett Curtis 'Furiously funny, gloriously frank...For a book about shame, Grace is unashamedly herself.'-Amelia DimoldenbergFor as long as she can remember, Grace Campbell has been told that she doesn't suit her name. But being graceful is no fun anyway.Growing up in a world of privilege and politics, she had a lot to feel confident about. But she was also a record-breaker when it came to feeling shame. Shame about sex, shame about rejection, shame about mental health.But over time, and with a 24 carat gold dose of female friendship, Grace has turned shame into a defiant sense of self. At only 26, Grace has got a lot to learn about being an adult, but she's already got a lot to share about being a disgrace, and how she came to be utterly, disgustingly, disgracefully proud of it.It's the book every young woman should read, and every young man should worry about.

The Good Life meets My Family and Other Animals; A timeless, funny and heartwarming memoir of life on a Cornish farm.

One hundred and ten centuries from now, humanity has spread across space. And all-powerful machines rule the humans who were once their masters.It began in the Time of Tyrants, when ambitious men and women used high-powered computers to seize control of the heart of the Old Empire including Earth itself. The tyrants translated their brains into mobile mechanical bodies and created a new race, the immortal man-machine hybrids called cymeks. Then the cymeks' world-controlling planetary computers - each known as Omnius - seized control from their overlords and a thousand years of brutal rule by the thinking machines began. But their world faces disaster. Impatient with human beings' endless disobedience and the cymeks' continual plotting to regain their power, Omnius has decided that it no longer needs them. Only victory can save the human race from extermination. Such vile villains...and such a fascinating description of splendid places.' Anne McCaffrey on HOUSE HARKONNEN
