From the New York Times bestselling author of The Caf by the Sea--whose novels are "an evocative, sweet treat" (JOJO MOYES)--comes this heartwarming holiday novel set on a charming Scottish island.

On the remote Scottish island of Mure, the Christmas season is stark, windy, and icy--yet incredibly festive and beautiful...

It's a time for getting cozy in front of whisky barrel wood fires, and enjoying a dram and a treacle pudding with the people you love--unless, of course, you've accidentally gotten pregnant by your ex-boss, and don't know how to tell him. In the season for peace and good cheer, will Flora find the nerve to reveal the truth to her nearest and dearest? Will her erstwhile co-parent Joel think she's the bearer of glad tidings--or is this Christmas going to be as bleak as the Highlands in midwinter?

Meanwhile Saif, a doctor and refugee from war-torn Syria is trying to enjoy his first western Christmas with his sons on this remote island where he's been granted asylum. His wife, however, is still missing, and her absence hangs over what should be a joyful celebration. Can the family possibly find comfort and joy without her?

Travel to the beautiful northern edge of the world and join the welcoming community of Mure for a Highland Christmas you'll never forget And warm up your kitchen with bonus recipes for the Little Beach Street Bakery's seasonal shortbread, Lanark Blue Scones, and Black Buns.

--Sophie Kinsella, #1 New York Times betselling author of the Shopaholic series

Unlocking Practical AI: A Developer’s Guide to Building with LLMs and LangChain
Format: Paperback
If you're a developer eager to move beyond LLM experimentation and build robust, context-aware AI applications, this book offers both inspiration and practical guidance. The authors open with a clear passion for the transformative potential of large language models (LLMs) and LangChain, framing these technologies as not just enhancements to the developer’s toolkit, but as gateways to new kinds of “thing-building” superpowers. This sense of possibility is grounded in step-by-step instruction, making the book approachable for those with Python or JavaScript backgrounds who may be new to the world of production-grade AI agents. What stands out is the book’s careful scaffolding: starting with foundational concepts like prompt-based programming and progressing to advanced capabilities such as retrieval-augmented generation, agent planning, and tool integration. Each stage is contextualized with real-world use cases, like customizing chatbots to interact with your own documents, personalizing user experiences through memory, and deploying to production with reliability and security in mind. The focus on chain-of-thought reasoning and LangGraph’s agent architecture demonstrates the authors’ awareness of the current state of AI, where context and planning are just as important as raw language ability.

Excellent Handbook
Format: Paperback
What got my interest in this book is the author. He's well-known as a leader in the LangChain world. And his book did not disappoint. It goes through the whole life cycle of development and there is a lot useful insights. If you are looking to build real-world genAI/agentic apps, then this book is certainly a great choice.
