|title=Emily of New Moon: A Virago Modern Classic (Emily Trilogy)
|author=L M Montgomery
|rating=4.5
|genre=Teens
|summary=I think I should confess, before I write this review, that I am a true Lucy Maud Montgomery geek! I have loved her books since I was a little girl, and I have read them so many times that the covers are worn and faded and her stories live inside of me, at least in part making me who I am. I wrote my masters dissertation on her books. I went to Prince Edward Island, Canada, for a conference about her works. I came back with a bottle of red sand and a heart full of memories. If anyone ever mentions ''Anne of Green Gables'' in my presence my eyes get very large and I get very excited (and my husband rolls his eyes...) So it is with trepidation that I sit down to review one of her books. Bear with me, I will try not to geek out too much, and I will do my best to be fair!

|title=Love...Under Different Skies
|summary=So. Bertie. Yes, dear Bertie finally turns seven in this book! And about time too! His birthday gifts from his parents are perhaps not everything he wished for, nor even what his dad might have wanted to get him, but Bertie's mother, Irene, has very definite ideas about what makes a good birthday present for a little boy. Fortunately for my blood pressure the odious Irene is soon whisked away to another country after winning a newspaper competition, and her stay there might be rather longer than she'd intended...

|author=Morgan McCarthy
|title=The Outline of Love
|rating=3.5
|genre=General Fiction
|summary=Persephone Triebold has spent most of her life on the Assynt Peninsula in north-west Scotland. It's isolated, rugged and under-populated. Her father opted to live there after the death of his wife, feeling that it was safe for his young daughter. She's been home-schooled and has had very little contact with other people - but makes the decision that she's going to university in London. Once there she shares a house with three other girls and develops a crush on former indie musician and Booker-winning novelist Leo Ford. She works her way into his circle of friends - and finally into his bed - but never feels that has ''connected'' with him. Part of it is that she can't get past ''that'' incident in his past which involved his sister, Ivy, her partner, a gun and a sword - and no one will talk about it.
