Our top seller for the week is Robert Galbraith’s - AKA J.K. Rowling’s - new crime novel, The Silkworm. Our reviewer says, ‘(Rowling) livens up the crime-fiction scene, hitting all the right notes, creating people you want to follow and making words such a pleasure to read…’ Read the full review here.

This week also features three fiction prize winners on our list (The Goldfinch, Burial Rites, A Girl is a Half-formed Thing), two memoirs from female politicians (My Story, Hard Choices), two food books that are long-standing favourites at Readings (The Age Good Cafe Guide 2014, Jerusalem), a book full of life lessons for adults (Everything I Need to Know I Learned from a Little Golden Book) AND… a stunning book featuring the artwork of eighteenth-century Italian printmaker Giovanni Battista Piranesi (Piranesi’s Grandest Tour: From Europe to Australia).

Happy reading!
