Everyone has been enjoying delving into some quality literary fiction over the summer break, which is lovely to see! Award-winning novels take the first two positions in our bestsellers - namely Douglas Stuart’s Booker Prize winner Shuggie Bain and Tara June Winch’s multi-award-winning The Yield.

We’re also in the mood for Australian authors, with novels from Pip Williams, Craig Silvey, Trent Dalton and Jane Harper all making our top ten.

If non-fiction is more your thing, then you can’t go wrong with Barack Obama’s bestselling memoir of his early political career, or Barry Jones’s searing look at the challenges faced by increasingly fragile democracies and public institutions.
