About this deal

Good evening, I said in a very serious tone that surprised me. Why was I starting like a newsreader? I am Raquel from across the road. I work in IT actually Raq, all very boring, just a desk job in town. He clearly had no interest in his job which was bloody marvellous because I did not want to hear about it. Nobody who works in IT should ever talk about working in IT to a non-IT person. It’s just rude. Also very presumptuous to chop my name in half without asking, I noted. I really shouldn’t, I don’t have long, I’ve left the kids …" I started to turn around but she wasn’t having it. She threw a long brown arm around my shoulders and ushered me into the house.

I was furious and mortified that Matt had not let this slide but I had to keep it cool and just very Britishly said, Excuse me. His shoulders still shook for a good two minutes afterwards. I really hope the author leaves the anonymity behind because I really need to know who's behind the name. I am so looking forward to reading more books by you! chronicles a summer of self-destruction, proving that even for those over forty, hormonal, and slightly bored, life can take unexpected and often hilarious turns.

is an outstanding debut novel by @njmillerbooks. Brilliant British humour from start to end, and you should definitely be reading this book. It's the perfect summer read! Matt had, at this point, stopped laughing at my expense and was shirtless whilst lighting a faux flame glass-fronted fire below the massive telly. I imagined his chest hair catching alight. My shoulders would have been shaking then, oh yes they would. He turned around, having sparked up The Ambience 1200. I am Raquel. Raquel with a q. They both looked horribly confused as to where this q would actually go. Pg.221: CHARLES B. DUNCAN. There are but few, if any, names better or more widely known to the people residing in what is commonly designated as the "Ironbound District," situated east of the Pennsylvania Railroad, than that of our fellow-townsman, now under consideration. ... (picture, office of Charles B. Duncan, corner Pacific and Elm Streets). ... Mr. Duncan is one of the oldest and most reliable real estate and insurance brokers in the city ... Mr. Duncan, while being a very busy man, has always found time to act the part of a good citizen, having represented the people of his district in the State Legislature for three successive terms, serving with ability on several important committees. (MAD: no dates, no family info) MAD: George Duncan b. 11/1792 NY d. 1/1855 mar. Hannah Amelia (Wale) Lacour, widow of William Lacour who d. bef. 11/1849; from info of Elizabeth Lee 2/1986)This is no doubt the most funniest book I have read in a while (thanks to the northern humour). There are a lot of laugh out loud moments, and the author NJ Miller brings a lot of wit and details into the story. I loved Raquel, even though at times I wanted to tell her to stop. Her mother's one liner are hilarious. I just felt like I was right in the middle of the situation with the family. William Duncan married Catherine, daughter of William and Mary Benson, of Belleville, and had two sons,-- Livingston W., born Aug. 4, 1828, in Bloomfield, N.J., and Henry B., whose birth occurred Jan. 15, 1840. Mr. Duncan, in 1835, in connection with his brothers and a partner, erected print-works at Franklin, N.J., and two years later started a woolen mill at the same point. In 1855 he built the mill which is at present operated by his sons in Franklin. His death occurred Jan. 22, 1877. His wife survives and resides at Franklin. Henry B. Duncan received a substantial education in Franklin, and at the Seymour Classical Institute, in Bloomfield. He subsequently entered his father's mill, and on becoming familiar with the various departments of the business, was admitted, at the age of 22, to a partnership. In connection with his brother, he is now proprietor of the business. He was, in September, 1864, married to Annie M., daughter of Silas Young, of Sussex County, N.J., and has two children, a daughter,-- Millie Livingston, and a son, William Livingston. Mr. Duncan has been as a Democrat interested in local political measures, and for ten years acted as treasurer of the township of Franklin. His interest in the cause of education has prompted him to serve for fifteen years as trustee of the schools of the township. He is a member of the Reformed (Dutch) Church of Franklin, and superintendent of the Sunday-school of that church. Pg.97: Captain Robert Conover's Company of Infantry.

23: A British Comedy Thriller - Family, Crime, and Laug…

This self-published debut novel is by an author whose real identity has never been revealed in what some might think is a bold and brave move. NJ Miller has delivered a brilliant debut all on her own terms and I like her style! I also would like to know her as her observations on life, love and the neighbours are hilarious. Oh my god, so nice to meet you. She had a Liverpool accent, a soft Scouse accent like the rough ones on Hollyoaks. Come in babes, I’m Gina and me husband’s inside, name’s Matt. Her friendly gesture towards the new neighbours across the road is where it all begins. Little does she know that this seemingly innocent act of neighbourliness could unravel her world.So I tried again. Well OK, any vegetable, or meat or fish or sometimes a starter, dessert. Anything to do with food. Gina rolled her eyes at Matt, I think she could feel my annoyance at his relentless attempts to be funny. She put on a serious face in an attempt to be the clever one. Detroit (MI) Society for Genealogical Research Magazine" Vol.36#4 Summer 1973 (FHL book 977.4 C4de) I know I’m not a bad person. Although I’ve done some pretty iffy stuff of late, I’m certainly not rotten to the core and my intentions are good, mostly. It’s not like I actually meant to put my entire family in jeopardy. The author behind this uproarious tale, NJ Miller, is an ordinary neighbour you might spot on a school run in her slippers, a slave to her hormones, stumbling through life with a hopeful smile. Writing has always been her passion, and with her debut novel, she aims to bring smiles to her readers. Preferring to remain anonymous, NJ Miller lets her work speak for itself.
