Mirroring Nar words of wisdom... Hello and welcome to the review that should have been here. It was here but its not here now as I have taken it and put it into my private stash somewhere else. It may well appear somewhere else online and if it does it will have my name on it. Thank you to everyone, to all the people in my COT over the years who have stuck by me and who have been great influences over the reviews I have written. It is indeed a sad ...
...a review on which makes no sense at all when the original content should be listed and frankly because of endless problems with Ciao I no longer have the time and energy to carry on. Each time I tried, it didn't work. Each message I sent to other members, they didn't appear. Each rate I applied, it didn't show. So that's the end of it. Ty for reading. One last thing...enjoy yourself and dont make the internet your life...go out and have fun! ... Read review

Advantages: low prices, no commitment, excellent choice
Disadvantages: none that i have experienced so far

As an English literature degree student, I am always buying books (but of course I hear you cry!) And, being a student, I’m always on the look out for a bargain. So, now for the science part: books + bargains = thebookpeople.co.uk. I could finish my op on that proven scientific formula but I guess I’d better go on to provide some backing to my argument…. ----------------------- thebookpeople.co.uk ----------------------- I am already a member ...
...both of these coming to a ciao category near you soon!) However, having had parcels go missing and generally being miffed with the monthly task of having to refuse the editor’s choice, I began a frantic search for a book club with no strings attached. And where better to start my search than on good old ciao. Having read a couple of ops on the site (thanks to SueMagee and RobinLawrie) I promptly checked it out and was equally impressed with what ... Read review

You know that moment when you take the Sunday papers through to the dining room? The first thing I do is take out all the fliers and put them in the paper recycling. This lightens the load considerably and you’re no longer in danger of dropping a TruPrint envelope into your toast and marmalade. A couple of years ago I was doing this when the words “Six Classic Crime Novels for £6.99” caught my eye. I’m addicted to crime novels, ...
...There were two Eric Amblers – “The Mask of Dimitrios” and “Journey into Fear”, a Francis Iles “Malice Aforethought”, Nicholas Blake’s “The Beast Must Die”, Christianna Brand’s “Green for Danger” and Edmund Crispin’s “Love Lies Bleeding”! The recommended retail price was over £30 – I knew it was, as I’d been drooling over some of these books ... Read review

Advantages: Very cheap books
Disadvantages: none

Ever since the printed word was invented, people have loved to read. Fact or fiction, educative or not, we have swarmed by the millions to buy more and more. It has mattered not a jot that we are now in a digital age and can download huge chunks of text not to say whole books from the Internet. We still prefer a nice crisp new book to a screen or pages of A4 paper. It is not so many years ago that the only place, apart from a public library, that ...
...the high street. Here the dedicated bookshop reigned supreme. I still love to browse through these Aladdin’s caves. There is an atmosphere and smell that simply cant be put into words. The only drawback with bookshops was that for years that they were forced to charge the price that publishers printed on the flyleaf. This put the owning of books beyond many peoples reach and forced them into the public library. Another alternative appeared ... Read review

...’t out down. As for those who state it is a difficult novel to read, I first read this when I was 15 or 16 years old and I found the novel as interesting and thought provoking then as I do now. It is not your conventional knowledge but it is an excellent introduction to the works of Kafka. ---------------------------------------------------------- The Trial is available by publishers Vintage Classics for £6.99.
