|author=Jo Bird
|title=Web to Success
|rating=4.5
|genre=Lifestyle
|summary=[[:Category:Jo Bird|Jo Bird]] (illustrator, designer and… errr.. .wall tattooist) had a lightbulb moment about positive thinking, self-improvement and success. The road to an improved self isn't linear in a 'change this thing and all will be fine' way; it's a web that connects and intersects several paths and subjects that can be summarised under three headings. All successful people (socially as much as professionally) know about self-awareness, personal development and emotional awareness. After having a shot at principles of self-improvement herself, Jo shares the fruit of her experience across a wealth of fields to make one heck of a self-help book.

|summary=Dr William Davis poses an interesting question: why is it that people who are leading an active life and eating a healthy diet are putting on weight despite all their best efforts? He has a simple and worrying answer: wheat, which he argues increases blood sugar more than table sugar. The problem isn't restricted to weight gain, either: there's evidence to suggest that wheat affects psychosis and autism too. In fact - the more that you read, the more you'll wonder if there's an organ in the body which ''isn't'' adversely affected by wheat.

|title=The Vagenda: A Zero Tolerance Guide to the Media
|rating=3
|genre=Lifestyle
|summary=I love magazines more than is socially acceptable, and I invariably read the women’s ones, or the fitness ones, but yes, mainly those ones for females which insist on telling me how to dress and act, how to style hair in some areas and remove it in others, how to have it all but still let men open doors for me. I don’t really object to any of this – after all, I choose to keep subscribing – but I was still keen to read this book. And not just to check I hadn’t been indoctrinated into forgetting it was all a ruse to make me buy stuff.
