Even better than Winnie-the-Pooh. Eeyore is my favourite and he features more in this sequel. The stories are timeless and delightful, and Ernest Shepard’s illustrations are perfect.

To begin with, the story is simply wonderful. The movie is a favourite of mine. And this graphic novel adaptation is fantastic. The illustrations are just brilliant. I love the portrayal of all the characters. This is one to flick the pages of, over ...more

Lord of the Flies by William Golding

This book becomes more relevant with every passing year as society becomes more like the boys stuck on the island in this classic. It is such a darkly horrific and believable story of how easily the thin veneer of civilization can come unstuck. It is ...more

Lordy Lord (of the Rings), this is a long book. It is an epic tale and an absolute classic. If you like your tales a bit less protracted, The Hobbit is for you. If you are marooned on a desert island and you’re up for a convoluted tale of dwarves and ...more

The premise is very clever, as is the world building as the story starts out. In the near future, the wealthy can time travel like we might fly somewhere for a vacation. The clever idea of characters becoming ‘unstuck’ is novel and intriguing. Images ...more

The Annotated Alice by Lewis Carroll

The Alice books are wonderful in their own right, but the Annotated Alice is fascinating. So many facts and interesting tidbits in the margin. Plus Sir John Tenniel’s illustrations - the ones of the White Knight are my favourites. Martin Gardner prov ...more

Failure is Not an Option by Gene Kranz
Rate this book
Clear rating
The real story behind the epic tale of space exploration and rescue. Kranz is a genuine American hero, and yet he writes the story of heroism in such a modest and matter-of-fact manner. It’s a really engaging and fascinating account of the space prog ...more

The Hite Report by Shere Hite
