Book Number Forty Seven - Freakonomics


Freakonomics - Steven Levitt and Stephen Dubner

Simply the best non-fiction I have read all year. A fascinating insight into our world from a whole new set of eyes. Loved this and can't wait to read part 2.

Vital Signs, tales from the intensive care - Ken Hillman

Book Number Forty Five - Petite Anglaise


Petite Anglaise - Catherine Sanderson

I thought this would be a light hearted look at life in Paris but turned out to be the story of a woman in Paris through her most complicated time. I don't want to comment on the morals of the whole situation but the book was written concisely and rather to the point
