|summary=''...the thing that you are forgetting here is that this isn't a thriller - this is real life.''

Ruby Redfort is a teen who has it all: wealthy socialite parents, a luxurious home, great friends, a job at a top-secret spy agency and a seemingly unlimited supply of banana milk. She's smart, sassy, witty and surprisingly likeable for a rich kid. ''Pick Your Poison'' is book 5 in the series; the penultimate book before the big finale which promises to be explosive.

|author= Roger Scruton
|title= Fools, Frauds and Firebrands: Thinkers of the New Left
|rating= 3.5
|genre= Politics and Society
|summary=''Thinkers of the New Left'' first came out in 1985, under Thatcher's government. British left-wing intellectuals gave it savage reviews. The publisher was threatened with a boycott and the book was withdrawn from bookshops. Roger Scruton feels this caused his university career to decline. In the introduction, he says he is ''reluctant to return to the scene of such a disaster.'' However, this is a subject he is clearly passionate about, having worked with underground networks in communist Europe and seen the destructive reality behind the fashionable ''leftist ways of thinking.''
