book reviews

|
The books reviewed here were chosen by the booksellers. Some are new, some are old, some are bestsellers, some you won't have heard of. They are books that we want to write about rather than ones we've been told by head office to sell. If commercial pressures were non-existant, you could expect the store to be stocked along these lines!

- Get A Life by The White Dot Anti-Television Campaign
- Don't be a sad boring idiot. Read this book and realise how television has taken your humanity away and replaced it with mush. Once you subject yourself to its whims you are no longer a citizen - you are a consumer. TV sucks, and you know it.
