#stoptheglitch review

Excited to read Dan Klefstad's review of #stoptheglitch today. It really gets under the skin of the book, without giving away too much ...

Flesh by David Szalay

I ordered 'Flesh' from the library when it won the Booker, despite not liking the title. There was a long queue of people before me, so when it finally became available I was filled with expectation. The best thing about this book was the lovely larg ...more

Flesh by David Szalay
"As I expected the winner of 2025’s Booker *sigh*
I found this exceptionally hard to get through and near the end I could murder someone when another "Yeah, Sure, OK, Not sure, alright, I don’t know" or a shrug or a repeat of a question raised appeared" Read more of this review »

Smoke in the Lanes by Dominic Reeve
Rate this book
Clear rating
I wasn't sure what to expect in this book, but thoroughly enjoyed it, and learnt a lot about the tough reality of Romany ways in the 1950s. Other reviewers dislike the cruelty to animals, but for me, it was an honest account of the actual lifestyle - ...more

Taking Control 3 by Paul Garvey
Rate this book
Clear rating
If, like me, you think that Ofsted has had its day, this book is food for the soul. It also provides pragmatic guidance on how to play inspectors at their own game. In memory of Ruth Perry and her family, the writing is also poignant and timely.

Neoliberalism and Early Childhood Education by Guy Roberts-Holmes
Rate this book
Clear rating
I thoroughly enjoyed reading this book; it told me so many things that I knew already, but didn't know I knew.

It is basically a comprehensive trashing of neoliberalism, with energy and enthusiasm. The way that the authors focus in on early childhood

Benedictus by John O'Donohue

Clear rating
Benedictus is a beautiful, reflective and reassuring collection of poems enhanced by explanatory text. It is spiritual and prayerful but not stridently Christian, which resonates with me. There are universal truths deep within the pages.

I wish I could remember who recommended this book to me, so I could thank them. It had been on my library list for ages and I finally managed to borrow it. Wow! I really don't know why or how I loved this book so much. It should be really boring; nea ...more

Pedagogy of Hope by Paulo Freire
Rate this book
Clear rating
I had found 'Pedagogy of the Oppressed' difficult to read, and so I approached this book in a different way. I decided not to make notes, not to expect a clear, logical explanation of things, and I just read with the flow. I told myself that Freire's ...more

I have been meaning to read this for years, and am glad I did, although I found it so difficult to understand. There are gems of wisdom that are really worth discovering in the morass of challenging text. I can't imagine someone reading this book if ...more
