I Before E (Except After C): Old-School Ways to Remember Stuff from Michael O'Mara Books Ltd Price: £4.99 Customer Review: This is a little gem of a book; I bought it thinking it would give me helpful ways of knowing and remembering more about grammar - but it's so much more than this.

4.		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

8.		The Eleven-Plus Book: Genuine Exam Questions from Yesteryear (Gift) from Michael O'Mara Books Price: £5.99 Customer Review: Embarrassingly I found the questions devilishly difficult, it was great fun trying to answer them and I tested my boyfriend too.

9.		The O Level Book: Genuine Exam Questions from Yesteryear (Gift) from Michael O'Mara Books Price: £5.99 Customer Review: Some of the questions here really are howlers, but a lot of this is just much of a muchness and stops being entertaining.

10.		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.
