An incredibly touching and revealing true story about Stuart, a "chaotic homeless" person.

Marquez brilliantly captures the colour and vibrancy of South Amercia. This book is my favourite Marquez novel because of the way it is told without any apparent regard for chronology.

Possibly the greatest ever opening for a book? This very funny book captures the madness of New York in the 80's.

Although the start is slow, Leckie manages to capture the essence of a man who revolutionised military thinking and was close to bringing Rome down, before suffering a crisis of conscience.

Sutcliffe shows he is an excellent writer by taking the reader into the mind of a ten year old boy.

This story about a border village caught up in the partition of India and Pakistan in 1947 and the impact it has on the villagers, is briliant.

Rightly regarded as a classic. The story of the boys deserted on the island and their social interaction, shows the power of the group over the individual.

Somehow this book draws you into its absurd premise and is strangely fascinating. Alhtough the ending is somewhat weak.

The story is excellent, even without the underlying political tones.

Heller makes you laugh and cry in this story of ordinary soldiers in the second world war.

You never know what will happen next in this tale of travels across the US. I loved it.

Huxley paints a strange and frightning picture of the future, which is surreal.

Rushdie is the writers version of Van Gogh. The man is a genius. Whilst some may find his work frustrating to read, I greatly admire the skill he uses to weave intricate story strands together
