review 1: I was surprised how many of the books detailed I have already read. This interesting paperback has given me plenty of ideas for the future, so much so that I have returned the library copy and have ordered my own copy from Book Depository. It is good to know that, up to this point, I have chosen to read a large number of books recommended by others. I suggest you get hold of a copy of this book if you are at a loss for what to read next, there is something in it for everyone.
review 2: This is definitely a book for book-lovers and readers everywhere. Packed full of potential reading ideas, suggestions and top ten lists, there's plenty of options for what to read next, and after that, and after that, and after that, and after that, and after that, and after ... morethat, and after that, and so... Each of the books has a synopsis that whets your appetite without giving too much away, critics and readers opinion, bookclub discussion points, background and companion books (just in case you need a few more ideas). My only critique of this is how broad it tries to be while keeping to a reasonable number...I would've loved either more genre specific volumes or a huge tome packed with reads for every eventuality (but I think I have a slight obsession when it comes to books so I would love something like that). A great read and reference book and now I have yet more lists to read from...I do like a reading list you know! less
