1.		The Kite Runner from Bloomsbury Publishing PLC Price: £3.15 Customer Review: I instantly fell in love with the characters and was deeply moved by the story. I usually read on the train and did not expect to cry my eyes out with this one; but I did.	Customer Rating: 4.5 / 5.0 Click here for more information

2.		The Boy in the Striped Pyjamas (Definitions) from Definitions Price: £3.49 Customer Review: This is a very simply written short novel describing Auschwitz from the perspective of a nine year old boy. The writing is clear and very easy to read, divided into short chapters, some wry irony throughout. However, I personally felt that the naivety of the boy was somewhat overplayed: would a nine... more info	Customer Rating: 4.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information

3.		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

4.		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

5.		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

6.		The Kite Runner [2007] from Paramount Home Entertainment Price: £6.48 Customer Review: A good poetic look on Afghan pre-wars (80') society, with a rich and poors, casts and kites. All vanished in the storm of russian invasion and taliban's terror. Two boys, two brothers, a sad story of violence and treason, with a "sugar" happy final (but the movie isn't a "easy" film). Good cast,... more info	Customer Rating: 4.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information

7.		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

8.		The White Tiger from Atlantic Books Price: £6.49 Customer Review: We agreed to read the Booker winner for book club, and this book was exactly what I expected. Far from sensationally exposing the little-known 'dark underbelly' of modern India, it is exactly the same as the all the other books exposing the little-known dark underbelly of modern India - we read... more info	Customer Rating: 3.5 / 5.0 Click here for more information

9.		Dreams From My Father: A Story of Race and Inheritance from Canongate Books Price: £4.49 Customer Review: Obama completely embraces the importance of effective communication as reflected on this book. I like the part where he realized how important is saying the right words and get the people's undivided attention to what he is saying.	Customer Rating: 5.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information

10.		The House at Riverton from Pan Price: £3.79 Customer Review: A non-demanding book, an easy read. This book has in it every thing bad that other reviewers have mentioned; simplistic in plot, heavily contrived events and clichéd characters but thoroughly enjoyable for all that. Grace, the narrator is a mixed up character; in her younger persona she... more info	Customer Rating: 3.5 / 5.0 Click here for more information
