 It's 50 years (how did that happen?) since [[Catch 22 by Joseph Heller]] was first published and there's an anniversary edition which will delight first-time readers or bring back memories for those who were there at the time. Another timely reissue is [[The Silent Cry by Kenzaburo Oe]].

−	\|summary=Are ebooks the future of books? Is it the right time to get an ebook reader? We thought about it long and hard. Yes we did. We don't often think about things this long or this hard, because it hurts. But sometimes, cogitations are necessary. We wouldn't be here at Bookbag if we didn't love books but we knew that more and more people were enjoying ebooks. It was time to find out what it was really like to have up to 3,500 books in your pocket or your bag. 3,500! Yikes!

−	A carefully chosen book is always a welcome gift, but it's not always easy to know which books are good and which have had the benefit of clever marketing. We've picked out the best books which we've seen this year and we think that you should be able to find something for everyone on your gift list.

 Domestic Violence and obsession feature in [[Into The Darkest Corner by Elizabeth Haynes]].  It's a book with a rather dull cover - but what's inside is superb.
-When we mention 'Swedish Crime Novel' and the name 'Larsson' you might well jump to conclusions about who we mean, but we've been impressed by [[Until Thy Wrath Be Past:: A Rebecka Martinsson Investigation by Asa Larsson and Laurie Thompson (Translator)|Asa Larsson]] and we think you will be too.
