If you'd like to sign up for our monthly newsletter, just drop us [mailto:subscribe@thebookbag.co.uk an email]. We won't bother you more than once a month, but we'll tell you about what we've been reading at Bookbag and any news from the site. We promise never to pass your details on to anyone else. In fact... we won't even tell each other.
'''Golden Hour'''
This month, we're going for a book which, if we're honest, isn't ''that'' good. However, it did kick off one of the most popular crime series of modern times - Ian Rankin's Rebus sequence. Yep - it's [[Knots And Crosses by Ian Rankin|Knots and Crosses]]. We wonder if Ian Rankin realised what a success his tortured detective would become way back in 1987.?
'''Books of the Month'''
For teenagers, Robert has chosen [[A Beautiful Lie by Irfan Master]]. Bilal's father is already dying, but Bilal at least wants to spare him a broken heart. So begins a memorable and enchanting tale of a young boy and his friends determined to stop the truth about the Partition of India reaching a terminally ill man. This novel manages to be utterly charming and seriously exciting at the same time.
We're always on the look out for people to join our panel of reviewers at Bookbag. We need people who understand that the reader wants to know what the reviewer thinks about the book and not just what's written on the back cover. If you think that you're one of these special people that we're looking for, we want to hear from you. You can find details of how to apply [[Reviewer Vacancies|here]] on the site. Don't be shy!
