I bought the Big Book of Top Gear 2009 but returned it immediately as it is far too childish. It is a bit like buying a comic book for kids. Very disappointing. I'm giving it one star just because it's nearly Christmas.

I love buying these kinds of books for presents - you can read them first before wrapping-up! I bought this along with a Joined-Up Thinking by Colgan (Stephen Fry gave a quote on the front cover) and both books entertained me hugely on these cold, wet, darker days. great stuff.

Carra writes as he plays his football. Honest, uncomprimising, blunt, confident & not afraid to share his opinions.
He is in a unique position as he was brought up in a tough working class area as a die hard blue but went through a slow & difficult transition from a blue to someone who is now totally committed to the cause of the reds.
He is honest in his assessment of his greater loyalty to Liverpool over England notwithstanding his total committment to the national side when donning the three lions shirt.
There is a touch of arrogance(fully justified)about his belief that he is a more skilful player than he is given credit for as he is genuinally regarded as a player who is reliable & always gives 100% but perhaps lacks ... Read More:

This book is an absolutely incredible, insightful and engaging book. As somebody who has struggled with anxiety and depression recently, this book has been the focus point that has changed my way of thinking about my illness around.

And to Marcus - I really hope everything gets sorted, and thank you for helping me.

This is a little gem of a book; I bought it thinking it would give me helpful ways of knowing and remembering more about grammar - but it's so much more than this.
The whole book is about mnemonics and rhymes as memory aids, grouped into 17 themed categories as listed in the contents page, which is viewable on the 'Search Inside' feature.
This book is ideal for flicking open and dipping into whatever page it lands on as it not only cites fascinating facts/trivia it also provides the means for remembering them!
To give a flavour of the diversity of information in this book, here's a rhyme which caught my attention (I hope the information's accurate!) on what's good to choose for firewood:
