A Class Apart - Susan Lewis

The Hornbeam Tree by Susan Lewis. Another page turner.

Advantages: Once I pick up Susan Lewis Book I cant put it down
Disadvantages: I have to wait for the next book to come out

I've never read a bad Susan Lewis book, I've loved them all. I'm always looking out of the next one to come out so I was really pleased when someone bought this for me. As with all her other books I got into this one right away, and couldn't stop reading it. I like that most of the books have characters from previous books. But you dont have to have read the other books to enjoy them. This book is about a mothers relationship with her daughter. If you read Susan Lewis you'll know a lot of her books are about journalists, so the mothers a journalist and her sister and her sisters boyfriend and her friends. These journalists always go further to find out the truth. You find out what happens when they search too far. ...

Review of Susan Howatch

John Lewis.......Upper Class Heaven (Supposedly)

Advantages: Wide range of high quality products
Disadvantages: Busy and the ease of breaking things

This review will be based around the John Lewis based in Cribbs Causway, Bristol. Ok, so please dont be offended by the title referring to 'upperclass'. I merely use the expression as everything in the shop seems to be so neat and 'shiney', it's a heaven for anyone who wants to feel like they are shopping in the posh area of society. But is the shop really that great, well you can judge for yourselves my friends............ Layout ********* Firsts things first, in proportion to the rest of the mall the shop is huge, most of the shops at cribbs you barely have room to swing a cat in (excuse the expression) but at Jonh Lewis you can quite easily become out of breath from the treks you have to embark on in order to get to the opposite ends of the shop. It is set out over 3 stories which does mean endless voyages on the escalators, I ...
