Anything Goes
John Barrowman, Carole E. Barrowman

Michael O'Mara, 2008

Charming from start to finish!
I actually listened to the audiobook version, read very entertainingly by John Barrowman himself. I can't say whether the book benefits from a slight abridgment, but I suspect it benefits quite a bit by the addition of John Barrowman's always charming delivery. I ...

The wise and witty words of Winston Churchill ring throughout the 20th Century.Any that knew him personally or had anything to do with him must have waited with anticipation of hearing what he would say anytime he opened his mouth.This held true for ...

Frances: The Remarkable Story of Princess Diana's Mother
Max Riddington, Gavan Naden

Michael O'Mara, 2004

Not a yawn!
I thought this biography told me a great deal about a person I knew very little about (except basically gossipy bits from other "Diana" books). It is well-written, sympathetic to the subject, yet fair. You learn that Frances was the warm-hearted child of a reserved ...
  
  











  



  
The 10 Minute Brain Workout: Brain-Training Tips, Logic Tests and Puzzles to Exercise Your Mind
Dr. Gareth Moore

Michael O'Mara, 2006

Not so great...
This book is strange. The trivia sections are ridiculously easy (with questions like "5 x 10 = ___" or "11, 22, 33...next number in sequence is: __"). Then there are puzzles that are quite impossible with barely any instruction (you have to look at the answers just ...

Dickens was best known perhaps for his great novels? Oliver Twist , Great Expectations, and Bleak House to name a few. His characters are some of the best known throughout the world, but it is Dickens's wit and excellent sense of humor that makes these characters so enduring and which can also be seen in his private letters. The Wicked Wit of ...
  
  











  



  
The Little Book of Cockney Rhyming Slang (Little Book)
Betty Kirkpatrick

Michael O'Mara Books, 2002

The big little
Boy was it small! At less that 4" X 4", it will not fit as well as you might want, in your book shelf. It is meant to carry in your pocket. As references go, It's A quick "go to" for the skinny of what a cockney might mean in his seemingly senseless banter. It makes ...
  
  











  



  
The World's Stupidest Laws (The World's Stupidest series)
Michael O'Mara Books UK

Michael O'Mara, 2005

In Australia, it is illegal to read someone's tarot or give them a psychic reading, as these are forms of witchcraft. In Singapore, you may not walk around your house while naked, as this is considered to be a form of pornography. In the USA, in the state of Arkansas, alligators may not be kept in the bath, and in Iowa, kisses may last for a ...
  
  











  



  
Graffiti Planet: The Best Graffiti from Around the World
Alan Ket

Michael O'Mara, 2007

Graffiti or "street art" has been a significant art form for more than 20 years, altering and shaping the urban landscape from Tokyo to Paris, Los Angeles to Sydney, Belfast to Berlin. Ever-changing and evolving, its anonymous, transient nature means it literally can appear one day and disappear the next. Yet out of this shifting mass of spray ...

The Book With No Name: A Novel (Probably)
Anonymous

Michael O'Mara, 2008

Over the top. But that's a good thing.
The Book With No Name is a fun read. It's an over-the-top gangster/vampire/biker/bad-cop/worse-cop shoot-'em-up blood-with-extra-guts sort of thing. It has some problems, though. A note in the front warns you that it was written for a UK audience and that you will ...
  
  











  



  
The Ginger Survival Guide: Everything the Redhead Needs to Cope in a Cruel Gingerist World
Tim Collins

Michael O'Mara, 2007

The burden the modern redhead has to bear is heavy. Mocked by friends and foes alike, or worse, fetishized for their "red-hot" sex appeal, at times there may seem like no way out for our carrot-topped heroes. However, help is now at hand. This helpful guide supplies all the ammunition needed to complete the transformation from redhead whiner to ...

The Book of Hitori and How to Solve It
Dr. Gareth Moore

Michael O'Mara, 2006

A great addition, but...
This was my first try at Hitori, and I haven't been able to put this book down for most of the week! The instructions are easy to follow, and the puzzles are set into sections of 20 puzzles per difficulty. There are different size grids in each difficulty, so you ...
