Well here we are on Christmas Day 2011 - what better day to publish the first post on our new Stortbooks blog. We imagine a few million books have been given as presents today and certainly here in the Stortbooks household was no exception. Val received "Faithless" by Martina Cole, "The Litigators" by John Grisham, Ben got "Fatty Batter" by Michael Simkins and Tom "You Must Like Cricket" by Soumya Bhattacharya. I was the grateful recipient of "Start The Car - The World According To Bumble" by David Lloyd, "This Is The Best Trip - Chasing The Tangerine Dream", by Ian Chisnall and "Brian Clough - Nobody Ever Says Thank You" by Jonathan Wilson. (Val also got "The Strictly Come Dancing 2011" annual, but we're not mentioning that!)


As you can see there's a bit  (lot) of a sporting bent in the Stortbooks household, but this blog will be dedicated to  books of all types and whilst we might not be inclined to wade through Cecil J Allen's "Railways of Britain"  (Thomas Nelson 1958), it might be one of your favourite books, and if it is, we'd love you to post a review of it on here.. and that's the whole idea of this blog.. we want to hear from you with your book reviews, whether they are books that are part of our stock here at Stortbooks or not.


So  if you love books, then hopefully this blog will be for you. We want you to take a full part in future posts on here. Just fire away with your comments or contact us with your reviews and we promise we'll publish them.


So we'll let you go and eat some more turkey. Then put your feet up, pour a glass of your favourite tipple and get stuck into one of those Christmas book that Santa popped into your stocking this morning... and if you've read them already (?) why not browse our catalogue at www.stortbooks.com
