Hello and welcome to the book
review.
Every week I will be featuring a book
which I have read and reviewed.
These books range from novels to serious
non-fiction, from comics to computer programming.
I try to be totally honest in my reviews.
And will recommend books which I find of an interesting nature - though I am
also very much aware that books which interest me, you may find a total bore.
I will rate the books according to how
'hot' they are - namely how much they raise the mercury of the book reviewer's
(me!) thermometer.
What do the thermometers
mean?
Not
worth any effort. Read only if you can borrow it from the library AND only
if you cannot find anything else more interesting than, " The Fabulous
Adventures of Pokemon" . Most definitely, do not waste any money buying the
book!
Only worth
the buy if you can get it at a 50% discount and read only on a 19 hour air
flight when you have nothing better to do after watching NottingHill on your
personal in-flight video 3 times in a row.
An
'OK' read only if it's interesting enough to last you through your sleepless
nights - sortof a good book to ease your late night loneliness but not when a
page-turning, fabulously 'un-putdownable' book is required.
Buy only
when you can afford it. Otherwise, borrow it from the library. Definitely worth
the read, but only if it doesn't burn a hole in your
pocket.
Do
not hesitate a moment when you see this on the shelf of your favourite local
bookstore - Grab it before someone else
does!
