Review: The Good, The Bad and the Little Bit Stupid by Marina Lewycka
The Good, the Bad, and the Little Bit Stupid isn't my favourite Marina Lewycka book, but it contains the elements of her writing that I love, and if you're looking for a quick, light-hearted read, you can't really go wrong by giving it a go.

By Alice Violett
Review: Confessions of a Bookseller, by Shaun Bythell
Confessions of a Bookseller is interesting and humorous, and shows that bibliophiles aren't necessarily a solitary bunch.
