As you accompany author Nick McDonald on his journey
through France, you’ll feel like you are really there with
him. My Trip And Other Mistakes isn’t just the usual
collection of local people and landscapes. With real
practical tips on where to eat, it’s a must for every tourist.

Squaring the Triangle , from Vivian Norris, is one of those
rare books that gives you a new understanding of an old
subject. Everyone knows that planes and ships have
disappeared in the part of the Atlantic known as the
Bermuda Triangle, but no one knows why. Norris discounts
all previous ideas and comes up with one or two
interesting theories of her own to solve the problem.
C
Crime writer Carol Masterton has done it again. In her
latest work Not One Before Another , she creates a mystery
that will have you scratching your head. The unusual name
of the book comes from the last words of Shakespeare’s
well-known play “A Comedy of Errors”, and like that work,
this book involves a lot of confusion over who is who.

stories of his travels round London as a taxi driver. It’s

so there’s no excuse for not getting to know this lovable
character.
