Penguin Until Next Weekend Marks Rachel

Brick Lane today is a place of extremes – a street that's constantly reinventing itself. Blending history and reportage with personal testimony and urban myths, and interspersing these with maps and photography, On Brick Lane is a one-of-a-kind chronicle of one of London's most remarkable streets • Bringing to life the memories and realities of Brick Lane's many communities, Rachel Lichtenstein harnesses the voices of the famous, the infamous and the obscure, merging memoir, reportage, poetry, photography and local history. The result is as vibrant and fascinating as the neighbourhood it so movingly celebrates

Chandler Cohen lies for a living • When she accepts her next ghostwriting gig penning a memoir for cult actor Finnegan Walsh, it should be a dream job • However, Chandler knows him best as something else: her worst-ever one-night stand • She's determined to keep things professional. But when she finally admits to Finn that their night together wasn't as mind-blowing as he thought, he's mortified, and determined to make amends • So, they strike a deal. During the day, they'll work on the book, and at night, she'll school him in the art of satisfaction • As they grow closer, the line between business and pleasure starts to blur • Can Chandler and Finn have both, or will they have to choose?

In both time and space, the cosmos is astoundingly vast, and yet is governed by simple, elegant, universal mathematical laws • On this cosmic timeline, our human era is spectacular but fleeting. Someday, we know, we will all die. And, we know, so too will the universe itself • "Until the End of Time" is Brian Greene's breathtaking new exploration of the cosmos and our quest to understand it. Greene takes us on a journey across time, from our most refined understanding of the universe's beginning, to the closest science can take us to the very end. He explores how life and mind emerged from the initial chaos, and how our minds, in coming to understand their own impermanence, seek in different ways to give meaning to experience: in story, myth, religion, creative expression, science, the quest for truth, and our longing for the timeless, or eternal

By the time you read this, I'll have killed one of your husbands • In an isolated retreat, deep in the Northumbria moors, three women arrive for a weekend getaway • Their husbands will be joining them in the morning. Or so they think • But when they get to Dark Fell Barn, the women find a devastating note that claims one of their husbands has been murdered. Their phones are out of range. There's no internet. They're stranded. And a storm's coming in • Friendships fracture and the situation spins out of control as each wife tries to find out what's going on, who is responsible and which husband has been targeted • This was a tight-knit group. They've survived a lot. But they won't weather this. Because someone has decided that enough is enough • That it's time for a reckoning

The First Rule is the most important: 'Always run, never fight' • For 3000 years Mia's family has shaped Earth's history to push humanity to the stars, making brutal, wrenching choices along the way • And now, in the year of 1968, Mia finds herself about to help launch the first people into space. She can't take them to the stars, not quite yet. But with her adversary almost upon her, and with the future of the planet at stake, one thing is becoming clearer • Obeying the First Rule is no longer an option • For the first time since her line's first generation, Mia will have to choose to stand her ground • But the overwhelming odds mean that she risks not only her bloodline, but also the future of the human race

Penguin Picks are stories you'll want to read again and again. Beautifully and stylishly designed by a modern artist, they are not only stories you'll keep coming back to but also books whose looks will never go out of fashion • Mercy by Jussi Adler-Olsen is Scandinavia's new bestselling crime writing sensation • 'She scratched her fingertips on the smooth walls until they bled, and pounded her fists on the thick panes until she could no longer feel her hands. At least ten times she had fumbled her way to the steel door and stuck her fingernails in the crack to pry it open . . .' • Merete Lynggard vanished five years ago. Everyone says she's dead. Everyone says the case is a waste of time. Everyone except Copenhagen detective Carl Morck. Turning over this old case he thinks he's found a clue missed by his predecessors

Until I met John Smith, Number Four, I'd been on the run alone, hiding and fighting to stay alive • Together, we were much more powerful. But it could only last so long before we had to separate to find the others • I went to Spain to find Seven, and I found even more, including a tenth member of the Garde who escaped from Lorien alive. Ella is younger than the rest of us, but just as brave. Now we're looking for the others - including John • But so are they • I am Number Six. To finish what they started, they'll have to fight us first
