A very long story with a lot of perhaps unnecessary detail. Good plot, good characterization and well thought-out but I like my mysteries to move a little faster.

This is a beautifully illustrated book describing the tapestries at Cluny and their history, written by a knowledgable and notable French authority. Will remain one of my favourites. Even as a 'coffee table' book it is well worth the investment (which is not much, considering the quality). I highly recommend it.

This is a typical Barbara Nadel mystery set in Turkey. It is the kind of story she is known for with her well-known and loved detectives. Her fans will not be disappointed witht this one.

Disappointing and would not recommend this book. It was written by an American entrepeneur who apparently made millions selling pool tables on the internet, but still found it necessary to make money selling a book. He already had a successful business before taking it to eBay and for those already in business it might be helpful, but for those who just want to learn the basics to sell a few things it is not very instructive.

Very interesting and instructive, but somewhat out of date - the eBay format and rules have changed since this book was published

This is good value and I would not hesitate to recommend it. Attractive, solid and accurate and a very good buy.

Same old Inspector Banks - music, musings and pub grub - mystery combined with ex-pat Brit nostalgia and current Euro politics. Those who like consistency will not be disappointed.

Excellent, engrossing mystery with great characters, realistic dialogue, humour, pathos, diabolical but thoroughly believable plot. Well researched and thought out -
even manages some romance, horror and poetic prose.
Don't wait for the TV movie - it couldn't capture the essence of this book.
A must read.

Well written, well thought-out and well characterized by Louise Penny as always.
Mystery set in the two solitudes of Quebec. Good read and good bargain.

Don't know whether these 'grey' books are abusive or just plain silly. Frightens me that young women reading this tripe think that this type of voluntary degradation is desirable. Surely we have come further than that. They are not even well-written. Hero is a modern Marquis de Sade and heroine (if one can call a slave a heroine) a contemporary Tess. Most disappointing thst these are best-sellers. Only good news is thst I bought them on sale.
