Same!

It’s a world war 2 novel released in 2014
the lights are in a box so they are hidden, meaning you cant ….

just lights to go,

i know i will kick myself when i get it

I still can't get it 😭

OK with help from lovely people here I'm down to 2:

The barbershop singers (something to do with a cold food but I can't get the title!?)
And the poster. I just can't seem to get the right combination of words to search

A previous hint was that it was shortlisted for the women’s prize this year.

What does the ghost want to do to the shop door?

@Elliania

The barbershop is not one title

@Elliania @EveryKneeShallBow thank you, finally got it! Hadn't heard of it.

Thank you @EineReiseDurchDieZeit and @Rafekie00 I've got it now!

So when I was a kid in the 90s and went round to a friend's house for dinner, their mum would whip out something from the freezer for pudding. It was stripy and named after a part of Italy. There are four books in the series.

Joss Whedon was always praised for making Buffy one of these.

(These are two different clues, by the way!)

Had to brute google child with animals 😓But objectively barbershop was THE WORST clue

Got them all except the bloody ghost in boots peeping round the door!

Please without giving me the answer can someone help me with the Lights as if I was 4 years old?

I have tried so many variations of unseen, hidden, blind, invisible and light and lights and bulbs and NOTHING!

Thank you! I'd seen the answer to the first clue but didn't think they'd put a series instead of a title lol

If something is in a closed box - is it visible or can you not <blank> it?

@TinyTear are there some of the lights, most of the lights or.....?

If they were not in the box you could....but they are, so you can't.

I'm crap at this!

Try some of those words but with book and Netflix on Google

thanks thanks thanks!

I don't have netflix so wasn't even aware of that

Just the travel and music ones for me now....i'm sure i'll kick myself!

@TinyTear let's say someone is letting off fireworks but their house is in the way of you actually perceiving the full effect. You'd have to settle for the sound you can hear rather than...

Music is one word - what joins all those titles together?

Travel is an old film with Leo Di Caprio

Got them!!
Thank you :)

@SerenityNowSerenityNow you park up near the places on the bookshelves. If you see someone who might know the exact location, where would you ask for directions to?

Just bastarding Sting to go.
I was positive the girls was Even cowgirls get the blues, because they are and the books are about blues. I think my answer is better.
But Sting-pleeeeeeease people!
