|author=Tania Hershman
|title=Some of Us Glow More Than Others
|rating=4.5
|genre=Short Stories
|summary=I won't be alone in stating that reading short story collections can be slightly awkward. Going through from A-Z, witnessing a bounty of ideas and characters in short order can be too much, but do you have the right to pick and choose according to what appeals, and what time you have to fill? The sequence has carefully been considered, surely. Such would appear to be the case here. The last time I read one of this author's collections, with [[The White Road by Tania Hershman|The White Road]], the only real difficulty was holding back and rationing them, but here you not only get a whopping forty pieces of writing, they are also spread into sections.

It's just a pity that I managed to figure out the ending about a quarter of the way in.

|author= Jeffrey James
|title= Ireland: The Struggle for Power: From the Dark Ages to the Jacobites
|rating= 4.5
|genre= History
|summary= The 'Irish troubles' go back over many centuries. When I and doubtless many others of my generation studied History at school, the Emerald Isle barely intruded on our consciousness, apart from brief references to the Battle of the Boyne and maybe the Easter Rising. This book therefore does us, and the country, a service in helping to fill a very large gap.
