|genre=Animals and Wildlife
|summary=I've always been fascinated by Penguins: I think it's because they look so ''smart'' and striking, yet survive in extreme conditions, so the opportunity to review a book which contains fifty penguins and other seabirds was too good to miss. Just the pictures would have been enough - the minimalist watercolours of street artist and ornithologist Matt Sewell - but Sewell's whimsical wit and ability to teach without being preachy makes this a book to treasure.

|summary= Immigration and radical contemporary art: the two themes of Miguel Ángel Hernández's ''Escape Attempt'' are debate-provoking even on their own, but brought together into one plot, they fall nothing short of creating a painfully current and ruthlessly polemic novel. The brave choice of subject matter takes the reader on a journey that revolts, angers, and excites: ''Escape Attempt'' is an experience that does not leave the reader untouched, and locks them in a page-turner that cannot be escaped.
