When Paul McCartney closed Live Aid in July 1985 we thought he was rock's Grand Old Man. He was forty-three years old. As the forty years since have shown he - and many others of his generation - were just getting started. Hence this is a story without precedent, a story in which Elton John plays a royal funeral, Mick Jagger gets a knighthood, Bob Dylan picks up the Nobel Prize, the Beatles become, if anything, bigger than the Beatles and it's beginning to look as though all of the above will, thanks to the march of technology, be playing Las Vegas for ever.

Their growing bond is one thing that Nina will be sorry to leave behind as she relocates from Australia to England, but they promise to stay in touch. It will prove to be a significant friendship. In England, Nina's path soon crosses with Sean Reynolds and she finds herself taking on a project larger than she had ever expected: Lavender Lane. Apparently, the welcoming group of properties was a convalescent home for officers from the armed forces, although it has been closed for a few years. Reopening the site is going to be a challenge for Nina and Lavender Lane has a number of surprises awaiting her, so settling down and making it her home might not be straightforward.

Evelyn unspools a tale of ruthless ambition, unexpected friendship, and a great forbidden love. Monique begins to feel a very real connection to the legendary star, but as Evelyn's story near its conclusion, it becomes clear that her life intersects with Monique's own in tragic and irreversible ways.<br /><span style="font-weight:bold;">Author: </span>Reid, Taylor Jenkins<br /><span style="font-weight:bold;">Published: </span>London : Simon & Schuster, 2021.<br />389 pages ; 20 cm<br /><span style="font-weight:bold;">Average rating: </span><span style="vertical-align: middle;"><img style="margin:0;" src="https://rochdale.spydus.co.uk/gifs/small-star.gif" alt="★" /><img style="margin:0;" src="https://rochdale.spydus.co.uk/gifs/small-star.gif" alt="★" /><img style="margin:0;" src="https://rochdale.spydus.co.uk/gifs/small-star.gif" alt="★" /><img style="margin:0;" src="https://rochdale.spydus.co.uk/gifs/small-star.gif" alt="★" /><img style="margin:0;" src="https://rochdale.spydus.co.uk/gifs/small-star.gif" alt="★" /><img style="margin:0;" src="https://rochdale.spydus.co.uk/gifs/small-star.gif" alt="★" /><img style="margin:0;" src="https://rochdale.spydus.co.uk/gifs/small-star.gif" alt="★" /><img style="margin:0;" src="https://rochdale.spydus.co.uk/gifs/small-star.gif" alt="★" /><img style="margin:0;" src="https://rochdale.spydus.co.uk/gifs/small-star.gif" alt="★" /><img style="margin:0;" src="https://rochdale.spydus.co.uk/gifs/small-star.gif" alt="★" /></span> (3 reviews)<br /><br />Balderstone Library - (Rochdale Library Service) - Lending Library Book - Adult Fiction - Available - 38024018386058<br />Littleborough Library - (Rochdale Library Service) - Lending Library Book - Adult Fiction - Available - 38024018386066<br />Rochdale Central Library - (Rochdale Library Service) - Lending Library Book - Adult Fiction - Available - 38024018386074<br /> The way back / Jamie Fewery. https://rochdale.spydus.co.uk/cgi-bin/spydus.exe/ENQ/WPAC/BIBENQ?SETLVL=&BRN=2940052&CF=BIB&ISGLB=0 The three Cadogan children, Jessica, Kirsty and Patrick, haven't spoken to each other for three years. An argument after their mother's death was the latest excuse to blame one another for their family's troubles in a long, unhappy series that's lasted almost a decade. When their father, Gerry, dies they are given instructions as to where he wants his ashes to be scattered. But first they must together drive his old camper van up the country to the Scottish Isle of Islay. For the journey, he's given them his old fishing tackle box containing three photo albums through which they can explore their past, and a bottle of single malt whisky he had been saving for the 70th birthday he never reached. Along the way, they'll be forced to confront the most painful moments in their shared history, lay to rest a ghost who's haunted them for years - and maybe even become a family again.
