Nowadays, we question what leading a happy life entails, how to be satisfied. We end up wasting our energy away, looking for happiness and not living it the right way. What even is the right way!? We follow the path that is supposedly set out to us by societal stresses and cunning commercials, steering us in the direction of Always. Wanting. More. When in your twenties, thirties or sixties, we often question what's happening. Let's heal together.

Named one of 2019’s most anticipated reads by Entertainment Weekly, “a hilarious and witty joy of a novel about a family’s insanely dramatic summer at their new island home” (Cosmopolitan) in the Pacific Northwest. The inimitable—some might say incorrigible—Frank Widdicombe is suffering from a deep depression. Or so his wife, Carol, believes. But Carol is convinced that their new island home—Willowbrook Manor on the Puget Sound—is just the thing to cheer him up. And so begins a whirlwind summer as their house becomes the epicenter of multiple social dramas involving the family, their friends, and a host of new acquaintances. The Widdicombes’ son, Christopher, is mourning a heartbreak after a year abroad in Italy. Their personal assistant, Michelle, begins a romance with preppy screenwriter Bradford, who also happens to be Frank’s tennis partner. Meanwhile, a local named Marvelous Matthews is hired to create a garden at the manor—and is elated to find Gracie Sloane, bewitching self-help author, in residence as well. When this alternately bumbling and clever cast of characters comes together, they turn “as frothy and bitter as a pot of freshly brewed dark-roast coffee, the kind that’s always available on the Widdicombe’s sideboard. And the dialogue, oh how it singes and sears” (The Washington Post). A “gleefully over-the-top satiric debut” (Kirkus Reviews), Cheer Up, Mr. Widdicombe is perfect for fans of Maria Semple’s Where’d You Go, Bernadette?, Andrew Sean Greer’s Less, and Jess Walter’s Beautiful Ruins.

Phrasal verbs are indispensable parts of the English language. They add a sense of fluency into spoken or written language and render it richer in terms of vocabulary. Knowing and using not all, but even the most common ones would make our English sound more natural. However, the difficult thing about phrasal verbs is to memorize them because, they may have some meanings which are completely irrelevant to their constituent parts. For this reason, we need to learn them by heart, which means “to memorize” them. Although it may sound hard to learn them in this way, using phrasal verbs in actual dialogs makes it easier to memorize them by creating a “match” on the cognitive level. If we support this with images as well, we may have a better chance to retain them in our memories permanently. This is exactly where this book steps in. You will find hundreds of dialogs presented in drawings where characters use phrasal verbs. A total of carefully selected 228 phrasal verbs are given with up to their 3 common definitions. Therefore, you will have to memorize neither the outdated phrasal verbs nor their barely used meanings. There are 38 units in the book, each of which contains 6 phrasal verbs given in an alphabetical order. There is an “Exercises” section at the end of every unit and two Revision Tests after every five units. You will also find a general revision test with 100 questions in the back of the book. This test consists of all the phrasal verbs in this book. You can reach the answers to the exercises by using the buttons below exercise pages. This book also contains links to the videos of each unit. These videos contain a broader explanation of the phrasal verbs and they offer 2-3-minute footages taken from various films where characters use the phrasal verbs presented in the relevant unit. The footages come with subtitles as well. You can reach these videos by using the buttons below pages. After looking at the drawings, reading the dialogs, watching the movie footages and doing the exercises, you won’t have any trouble keeping phrasal verbs in your long-term memory and using them in your own sentences. All you need to do is to make regular revisions, which is a must learning a new language. If you want to have this book as a hard copy with amounts over 100, please contact at [email protected]
