|title=Hummingbirds: A Life-Size Guide to Every Species

|rating=4.5

|genre=Reference

|summary=I've always been fascinated by hummingbirds - delicate, colourful, beautifully and brilliantly adapted to extract nectar from flowers. Perhaps most of all for me it's their acrobatic flight - the ability to hover and manoeuvre which has me hooked: I could watch them for hours, amazed that birds whose weight can only meaningfully be given in ounces can do so much. I was drawn to this book as soon as I saw it, for a number of reasons.

~~|title=Elvis Has Left the Building: The Day the King Died~~

~~|author=Dylan Jones~~

~~|rating=5~~

~~|genre=Entertainment~~

|summary=The phrase ‘Elvis has left the building’ was first used by a promoter in December 1956, when he assured a passionately pro-Elvis audience from the stage that their idol had gone home, and would they please resume their seats to watch the rest of the acts on the bill that evening. Ever since then, it has become a kind of showbiz punchline.
