131.Martin Misunderstood by: Karin Slaughter October 09, 2008

I automatically ordered "Martin Misunderstood" as I have all of Karin Slaughter's books and I think they are brilliant. Imagine my surprise when the book arrived, a very slim paperback with just over 100 pages, in fact I read the whole book in an hour. This is nothing like Karin's other books, it's like a short story you would read in a magazine. However, on the plus side it is very, very funny; it's been a long time since a book made me laugh out loud. The dialogue of the characters in the book is hilarious. This story should have been in a compilation of short stories because on its own it is not good value for money.

I recently bought this for my daughter after spotting it in Marks and Spencers. I earned a few strange looks with my mini squeal of delight, but nevermind! I had completely forgotton about this book until seeing it again, and the memories flooded back as I read the story to my daugher. The simple story will delight any child, but for me, the drawings made the book. A must!!

133.Feel the Fear and Do it Anyway: How to Turn Your Fear and Indecision into Confidence and Action by: Susan Jeffers January 04, 2007
Average Rating: >>More Details		List Price: £6.99 Off The Bookshelf's Price: £5.19 You Save: £1.80 (26%) Prices subject to change. Used Price: £2.37
This was the first 'pop psychology' book I ever bought, and it's a well-thumbed classic. Upbeat and practical, it's helpful for changing your mindset as well as your habits. A good mix of psychobabble and practical exercises. I found it especially helpful when leaving university, and having to make what felt like big choices about what to do next. The book helped me realise that all my choices could be positive and made me feel less afraid of missing out on something.

134.Practice Makes Perfect: Spanish Verb Tenses (Practice Makes Perfect Series) by: Dorothy Richmond January 01, 2000

Excellent basic text on Spanish verbs. I refer to it time and time again, even after years of study.

135.Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows (Book 7) [Children's Edition] (Harry Potter) by: J.K. Rowling July 10, 2008
Average Rating: >>More Details		List Price: £8.99 Off The Bookshelf's Price: £5.99 You Save: £3.00 (33%) Prices subject to change. Used Price: £4.20
This thing, the deathly hallows, the beginning wasn't the best beginning, but... I could not stop reading it. I don't understand why people think the ending is disappointing. The Nineteen years later could be expanded into a book, maybe, but, if J.K doesn't then that's all we really need to know to end the Harry potter phenomenon. Hopefully she will deliver another H.P book, because I know, I know, it won't end here.

136.The Ghost by: Robert Harris July 03, 2008

The main character goofs around a bit and gets laid before stumbling on the conspiracy. It was enjoyable enough, but mostly uneventful.

137.The Gruffalo's Child by: Julia Donaldson September 02, 2005
Average Rating: >>More Details		List Price: £5.99 Off The Bookshelf's Price: £3.59 You Save: £2.40 (40%) Prices subject to change. Used Price: £1.30
My kids - aged 2 and 4 - love the original Gruffalo story and ask to read it almost every bedtime. There was initial excitement when I brought this one home. But after a couple of readings they quickly stopped asking for it. If I suggest reading it now, they say "no, we want the first Gruffalo story". In truth, the original Gruffalo story is so good that it's a very, very tough act to follow. But, even allowing for that, this sequel almost entirely lacks most of the features that make the first story so memorable. It hasn't got anything like the same rhythm in the writing. And the plot meanders its way to a weak pay-off that has little impact and doesn't make much sense. All-in-all, a disappointing follow-up to the excellent original.

Let me just say one thing; I am an avid reader. I love books. Whenever I begin reading, I cannot stop halfway through, even if it is an absolutely awful book. However, this book went beyond awful. It was so far past awful it made me want to throw up (and I wish I were exaggerating). Not just because the book is basically a doctoral thesis on human psychology wrapped in a plot stolen from 'The Coral Island', but mainly because it makes no sense. Let's start at the beginning: The arrival. The pilot manages to safely land the plane on the one island in the middle of nowhere, while the cockpit is on fire. Having done this, the several tonne plane then washes out to sea, after all the boys have left, without a scratch on them. Not even a bruise, after an ... Read More:

139.S/NVQ Level 3 Children's Care, Learning and Development: Candidate Handbook (Candidates Book) by: Penny Tassoni, Kath Bulman, Kate Beith April 02, 2008

i have just completed my nvq level 3 with the help of this book, it is brilliant and helped me with evrything i needed to know and is insightful into the world of childrens care and help me understand it more easily. the book is broken down into the core mandotory units you are required to coomplete and optional units. it is like the bible if you are doin the course and is well worth having.

140.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: £1.96
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 ... Read More:
