|title=The Interview: Bookbag Talks To Tricia Callow, sister of Lesley J Nickell
|summary=Ani is an enthusiast about 15th and 16th century history and enjoyed the different approach to the Wars of the Roses which she found in [[The White Queen of Middleham: Sprigs of Broom 1 by Lesley J Nickell]].

|title=March 2015 Newsletter
|summary=Hello dear readers. We hope you're well and that winter is slowly seeping from your bones.
 
This last month has brought sad news. Sir Terry Pratchett, creator of Discworld and advocate of right to die reform, [http://www.theguardian.com/books/2015/mar/15/sir-terry-pratchett-1948-2015-an-appreciation has died]. Lovely Sir Terry, whose stories satirised every aspect of the modern world and the human condition but who, in person, was kind and funny and twinkly, without a nasty bone in his body. We are all a little bit less without him.

|title=February 2015 Newsletter
|summary=Hi, hello, and how the devil are you? Reading feverishly, we hope. As ever, we've rounded up our favourite books out this month and hopefully you'll find something you - or your children - will enjoy in the picks.
 
The first reviews for the film adaptation of [[Fifty Shades Of Grey by EL James]] are out. Most are suggesting that the film is better than the book. It's a polarising volume, isn't it? Our reviewer Zoe is in the positive camp but there are many who aren't. It will be interesting to see what readers think: few of us ''ever'' prefer the film to the book.
