Pardon My French: Unleash Your Inner Gaul from Allen Lane Price: £5.99 Customer Review: This book is both entertaining and instructive.Written in an easy, informal style, it certainly has added many more every-day French words to my vocabulary. I can't wait to try out some of the terms & expressions on my next trip to France! The small size also makes it very handy to slip into the... more info	Customer Rating: 4.5 / 5.0 Click here for more information

2.		The Suspicions of Mr. Whicher from Bloomsbury Publishing PLC Price: £5.99 Customer Review: I eagerly awaited the arrival of this book..... and then struggled to make myself finish it. The facts of the case of interesting but the book is massively padded out with all manner of facts on victorian life and morals which I found very boring and tedious. I thought I had bought a... more info	Customer Rating: 4.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information

3.		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

4.		Speak the Culture: France: Be Fluent in French Life and Culture (Speak the Culture) from Thorogood Price: £8.44 Customer Review: Whoever dreamed up the idea of turning the tired old guidebook format on its head like this should be congratulated. Want a single volume that explains French culture, history, regional quirks, pride and resentments, manners and well just about everything in a single accessible volume? It... more info	Customer Rating: 5.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information

5.		Wildwood: A Journey Through Trees from Penguin Price: £6.99 Customer Review: This is one of those books you can just dip in and out of every time you're feeling a little stressed with urban life. Each chapter is devoted to a different aspect of the world of wood and trees. Deakin, a true English eccentric, owned woodlands in Suffolk and loved and nurtured them like his... more info	Customer Rating: 4.5 / 5.0 Click here for more information

6.		A History of Modern Britain from Pan Books Price: £3.55 Customer Review: This is an interesting and readable history of our country since the Second World War marred (pun intended) by a liberal/left-wing bias. Andrew Marr deals with a number of topics and this book is neither political nor social history but contains bits of each and more. Much of the book is a... more info	Customer Rating: 4.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information

7.		The Forgotten Garden from Pan Books Price: £3.86 Customer Review: Thankfully, I found this book in a charity shop, so I didn't feel too peeved when it proved to be a dreadfully irritating read. With a writing style and storyline more akin to the the efforts you'd expect from a student who was part way through a creative writing course - Morton's book is... more info	Customer Rating: 4.5 / 5.0 Click here for more information

8.		The Ghost from Arrow Books Ltd Price: £4.91 Customer Review: Compared to the mastery of Robert Harris' other work - of which I am a huge fan, this is a dreadful, dull, uninspiring, completely unbelievable read. What a waste of time!	Customer Rating: 3.5 / 5.0 Click here for more information

9.		101 French Idioms (101... Language Series) from McGraw-Hill Contemporary Price: £3.99 Customer Review: I'm not a French speaker or learner myself, but bought this as a gift for a friend who is tackling the language. I'm sure they'll enjoy it as it's quite fun compared to the dry language texts I had to wade through at school. It's interesting to see that some French idioms are quite similar to ours... more info	Customer Rating: 5.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information

10.		An Utterly Impartial History of Britain: (or 2000 Years of Upper Class Idiots in Charge) from Black Swan Price: £3.86 Customer Review: Though it claims to be witty, I'm afraid I can't add to the glowing reports of this book. This is not to say that it is an awful book, merely that I found it hard to engage with the style of John O'Farrell. The reading is light and is a good a book to snuggle up in bed with as any, but I... more info	Customer Rating: 3.5 / 5.0 Click here for more information
