|author=Rick Gekoski
|title=Lost, Stolen or Shredded: Stories of missing works of art and literature
|rating=4
|genre=Art
|summary=Over the centuries, many works of art have disappeared and then come back, or been returned almost as if they had never been away. Others, less fortunate, were simply destroyed. A very few never really existed at all. That is the basis of this unusual and very intriguing read from rare book dealer, writer and broadcaster Rick Gekoski.

|summary=A couple of years ago, I reviewed [[The Mammoth Book of Best British Crime 8 by Maxim Jakubowski]] and it was something of a frustrating experience. There were some really good short stories in there, from excellent authors, but they were padded out by a significant number of completely unmemorable ones. The latest in the series suffers from the same lack of quality control - if anything, the ratio of hits to misses is somewhat lower.

|author=Chloe Coker and Jane Montgomery
|title=The Vegetarian Pantry
|rating=4
|genre=Cookery
|summary=Chloe Coker and Jane Montgomery aren't strict vegetarians, but they are ''passionate about fresh, healthy, seasonal, meat-free cooking.'' A shared frustration about being unable to find the inspiration and ideas they wanted led to this book, with its recipes which will appeal to everyone from strict vegetarians to meat eaters. Reassuringly they're not out to convert anyone - just to give some inspiration, particularly to people who haven't tried this type of food before. Some recipes are suitable for vegans (or can be easily adapted) and they're clearly marked, as are those suitable for people with a gluten intolerance.
