 The Road to McCarthy - Pete McCarthy
 The Road to McCarthy - Pete McCarthy ... their illogical conclusions, Pete is thrust into a world-wide adventure that reveals an unsettled and poignant history, while unearthing a good pint in the most unexpected locations.Newest Review: ... that stop it being as engaging as it should. First and foremost is, as stated, the reluctance of McCarthy to define a reason ... more ... for, or even anything found from, his travels. The second is a reluctance to place any of his travels in time. References to trivial UK news he encounters randomly are made, and this might tell us when he was in a certain place, but we aren't told how his meandering fits into the wider world.
In an earlier age, McCarthy was a reporter on British Channel 4's travel reportage show, Travelog, and there, given the right place, he was very enjoyable - engaging, amiable, lucky - as any travel reporter can't fail to ap...more |

Pete McCarthy is no Dave Gorman. This might be good news to you, however there is a reason for this to be a negative comment. Were this book to be written by Dave Gorman, or Tony Hawks, or anyone else of that ilk, it would feature a focus for the meandering travels contained herein. Perhaps more importantly still, we would be told that focus, and engage with both it and what comes of it as a result. The Road to McCarthy isn't a road.

Lots of background info 
Listings section a bit confusing Interesting narrative, Wonderful and descriptive details A little impersonal Inspiring none Good concept, good choice of pubs, good looking Poor legibility, poor geographic coverage, poor value for money Likely to inspire you to make that camping trip The reality of camping can be very differentFeast for Crows - George R. R. Martin
Twisting multiple plotlines over a massive world of engaging characters. Not one you can pick up without reading at least the third novel.
How to be a Pirate - Cressida Cowell
Imaginative, hilarious pure adventure a bit gross in some parts
Letterland: Early Years Workbook - Linda Jones
Dark Fire - C.J. Sansom
Just such a brilliant read that I could not put down. It had to end! I could have carried reading on about Shardlake..
My Week With Marilyn - Colin Clark
Informative, great read, realistic portrayal of Marilyn The book might be hard to find
The Sandman: A Game of You - Neil Gaiman
Neil Gaiman's epic horror-fantasy returns to Earth and tackles some serious social issues. Long-time readers may find the shift of focus disappointing.
Brotherhood of the Holy Shroud - Julia Navarro
Has the germ of a potentially interesting idea Dull plot, boring characters, badly written
The Devil Wears Prada - Lauren Weisberger
Witty; humorous; interesting plot Overly descriptive style; Frustratingly whiny characters
Under the Eagle - Simon Scarrow
Great writing, action packed, well developed Cato's character a bit weak, anglo-saxon language can be jarring
A Piece of Cake - Cupcake Brown
Amazing book none
