Scott Pape’s The Barefoot Investor has now been our bestselling book for seven weeks in a row. This essential Australian guide offers straightforward advice and a simple, step-by-step formula to creating a financial plan.

Three much-loved novels from Australian women also appear here. In the words of our booksellers… Georgia Blain’s Between a Wolf and a Dog is ‘beautiful, sensitive and unsettling’. Hannah Kent’s The Good People is ‘a timeless story of human frailty and a gripping period drama’. And Liane Moriarty’s Big Little Lies is ‘a social satire of the Sydney upper-class, with lashing of lattes and primary school politics’.

Here at Readings we’re all feeling extremely excited about the mini-series adaptation of Moriarty’s novel – the first episode is released today!
