Book Reviews

We had a great session today - with most of us reading book reviews. An interesting selection including non-fiction.

My contribution was 'I am Spain' by David Boyd Haycock - for more see here
which I reviewed for Books4Spain.

Love Reading?

Every Saturday morning I volunteer in our local Alzheimer’s shop – working to raise money for the local day centre where Alzheimer’s patients are treated offering respite to their families.

I have adopted the book department and this week sorted out our huge stock of Danielle Steel, Maeve Binchy and Catherine Cookson books into one large display.

This led me to research these prolific authors who between them have sold millions of books in many different languages (our stock is in English by the way).

For more see here and I do hope you can call into the shop and find a book or two or maybe another one of our many bargains.

TJ Miles - Back from Morocco

Another member of our disparate group is TJ Miles, international artist.

Great to see his latest travels (Morocco) have inspired him to paint again - and maybe he will also share some of his written creations with us soon.

Books4Spain - Special Offers

Books4Spain is a great site for all types of books and ebooks about Spain both fiction and non fiction - currently lots of special offers.

This from their site.-

'Books4Spain is an online bookshop specialising in English language books about Spain or books set in Spain.
Books4Spain has been established, by Rod Younger, an Anglo-Spaniard, in response to the explosive growth in online mass market “soulless” book retailers, such as Amazon, and the continuing decline of the traditional independent bookshop with knowledgeable staff and an interesting collection of books.
The site has been designed to re-create the experience, attractions and benefits of a traditional bricks & mortar independent bookshop but with the added convenience afforded by the Internet and technology to offer better choice, an easier way to discover books about Spain and to enable our clients to discover Spain and its rich history and culture through books.'

Also see their blog - lots of author interviews and other interesting articles about Spain.

Rob Innis, TWC member, has published an ebook - Spain Exposed, which will shortly be available on B4S in standard EPUB format for those who have a non Kindle ereader.
