81.The Power of Now: A Guide to Spiritual Enlightenment by: Eckhart Tolle February 01, 2001
Average Rating: >>More Details		List Price: £7.99 Off The Bookshelf's Price: £6.20 You Save: £1.79 (22%) Prices subject to change. Used Price: £3.40
I read this book several years ago. Yes it is enthusiastic and easily accesible and very convincing BUT I don't believe it was written out of any profound knowledge nor from true enlightenment. I felt it was at best a simplified version of Krishnamurti's writings, which I may struggle with but find deeply insightful. So yes as an introduction to more sincere & profound spiritual writing it has it's place. Tolle does have a story to tell, but it is not that unique. There is a difference between simplification coming from deep wisdom and that from inexperience ( I guess the same can be said for more complicated texts too!) and knowledge truely lived and that which is just an exchange of words. Dissappointing considering all the hype, especially ... Read More:

82.Revelation (Matthew Shardlake 4) by: C.J. Sansom April 04, 2008
Average Rating: >>More Details		List Price: £17.99 Off The Bookshelf's Price: £7.15 You Save: £10.84 (60%) Prices subject to change. Used Price: £5.39
Have read all four of the Shardlake series, all brilliant. I am now having withdrawal. Sansom has you totally engrossed, you can picture the scene, a detailed version of the violent times of Henry V111. I cannot find a single fault. Will there be anymore, please. If you like historical whodunnits, these are for you, difficult to put down, extremely well written, who needs television.

I was really looking forward to this, having heard so much praise. I guess I missed something, but I was expecting a really deep, complex story, like so many reviews and articles had described, and didn't find anything of the sort. The artwork's flawless, but the story really did nothing for me, especially the Joker's back story, which seems to be the most raved about part. I felt no attachment to any characters, and having only recently read Watchmen for the first time, and being so blown away by that, I couldn't see how this was the same writer. I also found it shockingly short, which I don't expect from a graphic novel. As I said before though, awesome artwork. I still love that cover!

85.Centurion (Roman Legion 8) by: Simon Scarrow August 07, 2008
Average Rating: >>More Details		List Price: £6.99 Off The Bookshelf's Price: £3.49 You Save: £3.50 (50%) Prices subject to change. Used Price: £2.49
I've enjoyed all Simon Scarrow books todate, escpecially this series, however I disagree with the other reviews in that I don't feel this book is stronger than previous eagle books. For me it, like the last few, lacks the pace of the first four in the series. That said I still enjoyed and eagerly await the next installment.

86."Stop in the Name of Pants!" (Confessions of Georgia Nicolson) by: Louise Rennison July 01, 2008
Average Rating: >>More Details		List Price: £10.99 Off The Bookshelf's Price: £5.49 You Save: £5.50 (50%) Prices subject to change. Used Price: £6.09
Another great book for the series. This book took me to a new place, i had a tear in my eye at one point and also the ending wasn't an earth shattering cliffhanger which i need to know the conclusion too straight away either. After a couple slow books to set the scene i believe the next one is going to be laugh a minute with Georgia getting herself into even more trouble and funny moments. I can't wait. I'm 25 and have been reading these since high school and they still make me chuckle as its a reminder of how your brain worked at that age. These have been labelled as children's books but any adults out there who are open to remembering what its like to be a teenager will love these.

87.Nudge: Improving Decisions About Health, Wealth, and Happiness by: Richard H. Thaler, Cass R. Sunstein May 13, 2008
Average Rating: >>More Details		List Price: £18.00 Off The Bookshelf's Price: £11.69 You Save: £6.31 (35%) Prices subject to change. Used Price: £9.32
In this lovely, useful book, Richard Thaler and Cass Sunstein examine choices, biases and the limits of human reasoning from a variety of perspectives. They often amuse by disclosing how they have fallen victim to the limitations of thought that they are describing. The fact that these educated, articulate professionals can fool themselves so often demonstrates how tough it is to think clearly, a point the authors emphasize and even repeat. Humans fall prey to systematic errors of judgment, but you can harness this problematic tendency productively, including by helping others make better decisions. Some of the authors' suggestions may not be practical, but many are and all are interesting. getAbstract recommends this book to anyone who wants to know how to shape responsible ... Read More:

88.Superior Saturday (The Keys to the Kingdom) by: Garth Nix July 01, 2008
Average Rating: >>More Details		List Price: £5.99 Off The Bookshelf's Price: £2.99 You Save: £3.00 (50%) Prices subject to change. Used Price: £1.75
Having read and loved Garth Nix's OLD KINGDOM books (SABRIEL, LIRAEL, and ABHORSEN) as well as his SEVENTH TOWER series, I had pretty high expectations when I started in on SUPERIOR SATURDAY. I wasn't disappointed. The action moves along quickly, with new and original presentations of magic at every turn, and major and minor characters worth cheering for (or, in the case of the antagonists, against). The sixth book in Nix's KEYS TO THE KINGDOM series picks up right where the fifth book left off, making it a little confusing to understand at first, especially if you're a newcomer to the series, like I was when reading this. The book is certainly good enough to merit your going to the library and checking out all of the previous ones in order to get up to speed, ... Read More:

89.The Game by: Neil Strauss December 06, 2007
Average Rating: >>More Details		List Price: £7.99 Off The Bookshelf's Price: £3.99 You Save: £4.00 (50%) Prices subject to change. Used Price: £5.93
What a discovery!!! I bought this book as part of some research for my own book and I was very pleasantly surprised. I never made the connection that Mr Strauss was the co-author of the much lauded Motley Crue's "The Dirt". Ok, the stories in this book may seem a bit stretched or hard to believe, but hey, it's Americans we are talking about. What I have to say is that reading this book made me look back on my failures and successes at picking women, and it was almost uncanny to read word by word where I went right and wrong. The Game is a bit of a cross between Queer Eye For The Straight Guy cum Men Are From Mars Women Are From Venus cum any rock and roll tale of debauchery you care to think of. Interesting but not recommendable for old ... Read More:
