"Stop in the Name of Pants!" (Confessions of Georgia Nicolson)

Childrens Toy Shop > Books > Books
by: Louise Rennison

July 01, 2008
'Stop In the Name of Pants' is, in my opinion, funnier than the last volume in the Confessions of Georgia Nicolson.

This time, Georgia isn't choosing between Robbie & Masimo, but rather Masimo & Dave. She has all the usual mishaps and embarrassing moments, as well as a few impromptu serious ones.

Fans of the series won't be disppointed with this book, and I look forward to the tenth installment!

by: Lauren Weisberger

Everyone likes to dream from time to time and every young woman wants to have fun. We all have been there, when we dreamed about having any man we fancied,having fun with our girlfriends or just dreaming of that perfectly shaped diamond ring.Chasing Harry Winston was just like that, it offered what every woman needs on those mellow days, when we are feeling down.It was an enjoyable read and I am looking forward to read Everyone worth knowing.

Random Acts of Heroic Love

Childrens Toy Shop > Books > Books
by: Danny Scheinmann

January 01, 2008
This book is cliche, boring, badly written and strained.

The "twist" is painfully obvious from about the thrid page.

It's so corny it actually contains the words: "They told me I had TB, but I knew I was dying of a broken heart" - isn't that a line from The Simpsons?

The love stories are utterly unbeleiveable.

There's nothing redeeming at all about this book

The Official Highway Code

Childrens Toy Shop > Books > Books
by: Department for Transport, Driving Standards Agency

September 28, 2007
As has been mentioned - all drivers should have a copy of this book as it lays out very simply exactly what you should and shouldn't do in most situations on the road.
So many of us drive, ride or use the roads and we need to understand the ground rules - for less than the price of a pint, you can use it to dazzle your team-mates in pub quizzes, or settle those perennial arguements (what is the speed limit for a van on a dual carraigeway anyway?).
It's an absolute bargain - so if you find yourself frustrated by modern road designs and signs, or get confused by how to deal with some of the strange new junctions - get a copy.

Addition

Childrens Toy Shop > Books > Books
by: Toni Jordan

June 12, 2008
So much more than a romance, 'Addition' explores with sardonic wit the quirky world of OCD.
I loved Grace Vandenburg from the minute I met her and as for Seamus, he was so delicious I could have eaten him. His utter unfailing acceptance of Grace, from the minute she steals his banana, is instant and completely magical to read. And Grace's acceptance of him seems amazing to comprehend given the strict order of her life.
Devoured in two sittings, I think the best feature of this novel is that it forces you to explore your own feelings on what's 'normal' - how we should behave, how we should think, how we should fit into society as a valid human being. Ultimately, I was drawn to the conclusion that we are who we are, with all our foibles ... Read More:

Twilight (Twilight Saga)

Childrens Toy Shop > Books > Books
by: Stephenie Meyer

September 09, 2006
I know the majority of people reviewing this book have said that it was incredible etc etc but I'm going to say it again because really, it truly is amazing.
I like a good love story as much as the next person but this was something else. Literally, you can't help falling in love with Edward. I'm not even joking when I say he's the perfect guy (aside form the fact that he's a vampire, I guess). If you like a little romance in a book then Twilight is perfect for you.
I've read all the classics like Pride and Prejudice etc and as much as I enjoyed them, after reading them once or twice that's enough for me. Twilight is the complete opposite. This may just be my personal opinion but I recon I could read it again and again and actually not ... Read More:

The Memory Garden

I read this book because i was getting bored with the usual girly reads and i'm so glad i did! This book is amazing. The descriptions are fantastic, not too long that you get bored but so accurate you can picture yourself driving through cornwall and digging the garden with them! I love cornwall so the combination of the area and the history behind the house is great. I loved the way the book goes between the past history of pearl, the hidden secrets behind their lives and the love story interlinking it all! The final chapter was enough to make me reach for the tissue box! A great read which leaves you wanting more and more! Read it cause you'll love it!

IEE Wiring Regulations 17th Edition : (BS 7671: 2008)

A book that is simply not written to be understood. A book that can only really be read if purchased with other guides. A book written by persons that have no idea about this industry. A black cable can now be live, existing blue cables now may be live but new blue ones will be neutrals. Persons will die because of these Regs. Written by so called experts that do not care how much it all costs. Let's put RCDs or RCBOs on everything. Why buy it, because you have to.
