A flurry of new releases, exciting in-person events, and the announcement of Australia’s richest literary prize has seen a shake-up of our best sellers this week! The top entries include a chilling debut thriller; a thought-provoking collection of essays on body politics & mental health, told through the lens of food writing; and a prize-winning apocalypse novel exploring what would happen, for better or worse, if we finally understood what animals were saying.

Other welcome (and local!) entries include the latest edition to Black Inc’s Growing Up In Australia anthology series, Growing Up Disabled in Australia and Rebecca Starford’s long-awaited espionage thriller, The Imitator.
