A History of England in 25 Poems by Catherine Clarke

The concept of Catherine Clark’s history-poetry book is an interesting one: “…the history of England told in a new way: glimpsed through twenty-five remarkable poems written down between the eighth century and today, which connect us directly with th ...more

The Black Death by Thomas Asbridge

Thomas Asbridge's The Black Death, an account of the plague which spread across the known mediaeval world and probably well beyond it in a series of pulses from the mid fourteenth century onwards is, quite simply, the most informative, accessible and ...more

The Book Lover's Guide to Edinburgh by Kate Stephenson
Rate this book
Clear rating
I thought this was a fun but rather limited guide to literary places in the wonderful (sorry, I’m biased) city of Edinburgh. The author splits it into three parts — some short walking itineraries on the city based around the works of famous authors, ...more

Mary of Modena by Justine  Brown

Okay, I admit it. I thought this book might be a bit niche, even for a rock enthusiast like myself, but I was wrong. Instead of being a dry trail through a lot of specialisms it was entertaining and engaging, as well as very informative.

Clear rating

It’s a bit niche, this one, but as I have an interest in history (and a shedload of Staffordshire ancestors, to boot) I thought I’d give it a go. I wasn’t sure what I was expecting from it, especially since my dad had done a lot of the legwork on my

A Murder on the Mountain by Ellie Alexander
Rate this book
Clear rating
I don’t know it it’s just me (maybe it’s the books I’m picking up) but cosy crime seems to be trending these days towards the cosy and away from the crime. So it was with Ellie Alexander’s A Murder on the Mountain, and it’s fine, it really is, but…it ...more

I’ll be up front. Prior to reading this book my experience of reading Elif Shafak (two books, There are Rivers in the Sky and The Island of Missing Trees) propelled her right up near the top of my list of favourite writers. On that basis alone I was
