Cover of The Hell of it All
Cover of Dunkirk
Cover of The Ode Less Travelled
Cover of The Art of Looking Sideways
Cover of Arthur and George
  • Very readable. Loved the dichotomy between the two very different main characters and the way the formal device of a chapter per character gradually eases and the story grows.

Cover of Graphic Storytelling and Visual Narrative
  • As you'd expect a very well told introduction to the hugely rich area of graphic storytelling.

    Clearly laid out in a way that helps to understand the fundamentals of telling stories - how, why, and ways to do it.

Cover of Sam the Sudden
  • As expected, lovely phrasing throughout make this a very pleasant and enjoyable book to read.

    It fair rattles along with flourishes aplenty, and the usual farcical plot twists that could grate if they weren't handled with such verve and lightness of touch.

  • Charlie and Victoria set out to make a ethically sound porn film and this book details what they learnt about the industry, themselves and the people they encounter along the way.

    Charlie and Victoria set out to make a ethically sound porn film and this book details what they learnt about the industry, themselves and the people they encounter along the way.

    They are cheery writers often wrestling with pretty dark subject matter, and as well as the laughs there's some genuine feeling for many of the people involved.

Cover of White Teeth
  • Liked the structure of the book. Just when the plot and cast was in danger of becoming claustrophobic, an additional set entered which re-energised the book.

    I never saw the final twist coming, but then I never do.

Cover of Language of Things
  • So many good points to keep you picking up the book

    The Language of Things

    A fascinating book. The author whilst obviously deeply thoughtful and educated about the cultural significance of the objects that surround us he wears his knowledge lightly and makes it very easy to follow.

    Joe Clark wrote a great review, which is what made me pick it up. I agree with his assertion that it's full of great points that then get pushed out of one's head to make way for the next one. Really enjoyed the chapter on Fashion, which educated me about what a huge and voracious industry the fashion business is, and how it consumes so many other cultural activities. The chapter on Luxury was equally thought provoking.

    A book about the adventures and lives of a group of late teenage girls, out on a wild spree in the Scottish capital.

    The story rattles along, but the book is some much more than the hilarious language and scrapes the main group of characters get into. It's also about life in a small town, the ambitions (or lack of), and without sounding too cheesy the coming of age of the protagonists.

    The heavy scottish brogue is a little tricky at first, but then feels so right for the book.

    Laugh out loud with quite a few tender observations too.

Cover of Paper view
  • Just finished, and feel a little like I've had too many sweets. The format of columns of Gill's writing sucked me into the 'just one more' mode of reading, and though I enjoyed them all , I might have been better to pace myself rather than wolf them all down.

    Anyway, that's my fault not his.
