1.		The Book Thief from Black Swan Price: £3.86 Customer Review: I can't recommend this book highly enough. It's true that its very setting fills it with sadness but its originality, delicacy, poetry and certainly humour make it a very special book indeed. I's one of those books that risks making you unpopular as you try desperately to convince... more info	Customer Rating: 4.5 / 5.0 Click here for more information

2.		Random Acts of Heroic Love from Black Swan Price: £3.86 Customer Review: What I loved most about this book, is that fact that the author managed to write beautifully, and still weave a wonderful plot line, two in fact. I sometimes find books either have the plot, or the writing. I love the way the two stories parallels eachother, where two men are going through... more info	Customer Rating: 3.5 / 5.0 Click here for more information

3.		Notes from an Exhibition from HarperPerennial Price: £3.86 Customer Review: First of Patrick Gale's novels that I've read and found it a very 'gentle' read, even though the subject matter was anything but gentle. A story of family life and family deaths and, at the centre, Rachel - the mother, forever wrestling with her own demons, for as well as being a gifted artist, she... more info	Customer Rating: 4.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information

4.		A Thousand Splendid Suns from Bloomsbury Publishing PLC Price: £6.49 Customer Review: This is a magnificent story of the plight of women in Afghanistan, both before, during and after the Taliban.

5.		Engleby from Vintage Price: £4.82 Customer Review: Sebastian Faulks has taken a daring step with his latest novel, taking the reader deeper then his previous novels. Faulks opens the door into the mind of the eccentric and aloof Mike Engleby, forcing you to step into a world which often leaves you feeling uneasy and perplexed.

6.		The Road Home from Vintage Price: £3.86 Customer Review: Hey guys , I read the book but from my own experience in learning a foreign language i found it a bit too strange for Lev to learn english so quickly as he learned . I mean , at first he couldnt even speak but after a short time he was fluent in the language already ?	Customer Rating: 4.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information

7.		Atonement from Vintage Price: £4.82 Customer Review: I've never not finished a book once I've started it, but to be honest, I struggled with this one. At the start I didn't warm at all to any of the characters except for Robbie and what followed in the book enamoured me to them even less. But struggle I did and although I found the scenes in the lead... more info	Customer Rating: 3.5 / 5.0 Click here for more information

8.		The Outcast from Vintage Price: £2.99 Customer Review: If you ever feel you are too happy this is the book for you! Badly written two-dimensional stereotypical characters in a totally depressing story. Do not recommend at all	Customer Rating: 4.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information

9.		Blood River: A Journey to Africa's Broken Heart from Vintage Price: £3.86 Customer Review: One has to admit that Tim Butcher's journey through the war torn DRC is an amazing exploit, albeit more than slightly foolish! The same cannot be said about the book. It's an easy to read travel story which is decent entertainment on a long haul flight, but I cannot understand the purpose of the... more info	Customer Rating: 4.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information

The story of a man who returns to his parents Czech homeland.Here he discovers the story of his Mothers true love during the war. Very sad and touching in places, and lots of references to the war.
