Finally got round to adding some more reviews. The site stability issues would appear to have been resolved by our hosting provider, but will keep a close eye on the site over the next few weeks to make sure that the fix that they applied is working properly. Just finished a couple of books, and… Read More »
I have been having some problems with the site for a few days now. Unfortunately, this has been outside of my control, and have raised a ticket with the hosting company. Hopefully this will be resolved shortly. Shortly after I raised the ticket with them, the site came back up (for the first time in… Read More »
So it’s World Book Day .. go grab your favourite book and chill-out.

However, my daughter, who is a history teacher, does read a lot of historical accounts, so I will be… Read More »
I have some plans for quality of life updates for the site. I want to start indexing by author, which should make it easier to find specific books. Obviously the search function will help with finding specific books or authors, but an alphabetic list by author will certainly help. I may also do an alphabetic… Read More »

Now, following the update, they are covered in much more detail. In addition, as these are curated reviews which… Read More »
