Hodder And Stought...

Jojo Moyes

Hodder & Stoughton Ltd, 2005

Loved this book
I loved everything about this book, from the first page to the last. I first became acquainted with Ms. Moyes' work when I bought SHELTERING RAIN and quickly discovered she wrote in the tradition of Marcia Willette, Rosamund Pilcher, and the early works of Maeve ...

The River Cottage Year

Hugh Fearnley-Whittingstall

Hodder & Stoughton Ltd, 2003

My favorite cookbook, bar none
There are several recipes in this cookbook--the one for batter-fried pollack comes to mind--that in themselves justify the purchase of the book. But what really makes this volume special is that almost ALL of the recipes are that good. Literally more than half of them ...

Ugly

Constance Briscoe

Hodder And Stoughton Ltd., 2006

triumph over a loveless childhoon
Reading "Ugly" by Constance Briscoe is simultaneously a daunting and inspiring experience. Briscoe suffered so dreadfully from the demented behavior of a narcissistic mother. Yet she consistently had the perseverance to keep trying to make sense of and overcome that ...

A Friend Like Henry

Nuala Gardner

Hodder & Stoughton Ltd, 2007

Real, Moving, Inspiring
this book didn't start all that well for me, partly because I thought it was a novel, the writer's style is very matter of fact. But the writer keeps her wit throughout this immensely difficult journey and it grows on you. This story was moving and funny. It also ...

Celebration of Discipline: The Path to Spiritual Growth
Richard J. Foster

Hodder & Stoughton Ltd, 1998

Richard Foster explains why he believes that the classical spiritual disciplines such as mediation, submission and fasting are the only true ways to promote a deep inner life and infuse it with over whelming joy. Arguably the most established contemporary spiritual classic by our most profound living religious writer.

The Bumper Book of Bunny Suicides

Andy Riley

Hodder & Stoughton Ltd, 2007

HILARIOUSNESS!
I own all the bunny suicide books, they are hilarious. A running gag that you can't help but laugh at, for the sheer Rube Goldberg-esque manners in which the try and die. Great fun, and not meant in anyway seriously. Highly recommended.

Get Everything Done: And Still Have Time to Play (Help yourself)

Mark Forster

Hodder & Stoughton Ltd, 2000

A book written by someone who was a poor time manager
Many of the books about managing time seem to be written by systematic organized people who share their techniques, and the assumption is that you too can manage time if you follow their methods. Mark Forster started from the position that he was poor at managing his ...

The River Cottage Meat Book

Hugh Fearnley-Whittingstall

Hodder & Stoughton Ltd, 2008

The River Cottage Meat Book
I recently purchased the River Cottage Book of Meat for a friend who is a lover of all things meat, but also a wonderful cook and collector of cookbooks. This is the note I received on his receipt of the book: "I love my present, the Book of Meat. From its lovingly ...

Irons in the Fire

Russell Brand

Hodder & Stoughton Ltd, 2007

Russell Brand's look at life and football
I love the wit and intellect of Russell Brand! This book is a compilation of his weekly articles from The Guardian newspaper generally about football (soccer) and his team West Ham United (England's Premier League). These aren't especially detailed as to the sport ...

Cherry Cake and Ginger Beer: A Golden Treasury of Classic Treats

Jane Brocket

Hodder & Stoughton Ltd, 2008

An enchanting treat for adults and children alike
Not just a wonderful collection of recipes that children will love to help you cook, but a nostalgic wander through the best loved books of our childhoods - Little House on the Prairie, Anne of Green Gables, Little Women and so many others. I loved Jane Brocket's last ...

The Shrine of Jeffrey Dahmer

Brian Masters

Hodder & Stoughton Ltd, 1993

Excellent
An excellent book about a Mr. Dahmer, who had so much potential -- good looks, intelligence, good work ethic. The review below me seems rather strange. I have studied philosophy for years, and I cannot see the validity of your interpretation. You seem to be focusing ...

The Girl Who Loved Tom Gordon

Stephen King

Hodder & Stoughton Ltd, 1999

Best King novel ever
I have read King books over the years, some but not all, and frankly, I had stopped reading them. My complaint was that there was always a totally unnecessary ugly event happening to a child, usually a death, that when you finished the book, you say, was that really ...

Supernanny: How to Get the Best from Your Children

Jo Frost, Elizabeth Wilhide

Hodder & Stoughton Ltd, 2006

Excellent / Muy Bueno para madres de 1, 2 o más hijos
It shows tips that you really don't know and only experience can teach you (after some mistakes). The nany is a person like us, who loves the kids and also has seen several home environments. There are some extreme cases described that will certainly help all of us.

His treachery has already blown some of their vital operations and their best networks. The mole is one of their own kind. But which one? "His people are full-bodied, ...

Mr.Jones' Rules for the Modern Man

Dylan Jones

Hodder & Stoughton Ltd, 2007

Style updated and made funny
Sometimes image or style is equated with boredom and old fashioned (because normally general recommendations tend to stay in the "general average") on the contrary, Mr. Jones updates general fashion and behavior rules, present them in an accessible and very ...
