Jill Mansell, unlike other writers in the rom-com arena, seems to get better with every book she writes. Thinking of You is her latest offering and proves that it is possible to get better with age!
Ginny Holland, a best selling author if left rattling around in her house on her own after daughter Jem goes to university. Lonely, she advertises her spare room for rent. Instead of a happy roommate, she gets moaning Laurel who is still hung up on her ex-boyfriend. If that wasn’t enough, Ginny finds herself lusting after two men who can only be bad for her. Will Ginny get the man of her dreams, or will he be the one that gets away?
Mansell has a disarming ability to create characters that you already know and that tends to make her books impossible to put down. This book is no different. It is charmingly written, hopelessly funny and will make you forget all of your own troubles as soon as you read the first page.

Brilliant Presentation was picked as the "best of its kind" in Management Today in November '07:
'Hall combines a tool-kit, critical pointers and presentation anecdotes from stars in this excellent book. Well-structured and thoughtfully laid outBrilliant Presentation gives tips for presenters at all levels from novice to expert. Advice includes boosting self-confidence by proclaiming 'I feel totally shameless today.' Rock on!'
Communication and presentation is crucial in all areas of business and a key factor in whether we succeed or not.
In today?s business world, we all have to present at some point or another, regardless of how much we enjoy doing it. Being great at our jobs is no longer good enough; unless you can communicate with power and clarity you simply won?t progress.
If you?re part of the majority who do not feel comfortable presenting then worry no more. Brilliant Presentations is quite simply the best mass market presentation book there is, and by following its Brilliant Five Point Check List, you can become brilliant in a world of increasingly competent presenters.
Full of secrets and tips from the most accomplished and experienced presenters, this book talks you through all stages of your presentation, and integrates both content and personal presentation coaching. There is pragmatic advice for those in need of a desperate quick fix, and a presentation diary to mark your progress from a novice presenter to a brilliant one!
Written in Hall?s highly engaging and compelling style, and supported by practical exercises, he ensures you have all the ?know how? you need to deliver a successful visual presentation. Why be an average presenter when you could be brilliant?
Presenting ? most of us try to avoid it and when we have to do it, it?s usually a case of ?surviving? the experience. But in today?s working world, as much as we try to avoid it and simply get through it, it?s a fact of life ? presenting is a core business skill and we are expected to be good at it. For the majority of us who aren?t natural presenters, this poses a huge problem: how do we learn to present and get good at it?
Brilliant Presentation is your answer. No matter what your current level is, you can teach yourself to be a good, if not brilliant, presenter. Every aspect of presenting is covered, so that you learn not only the nuts and bolts of putting a presentation together, but also the art of presentation performance.

2008-04-30 perfect advice
I read this book in a day on a train and made notes while I read it. For me it was research as I too work in presentation, particularly the use of voice. It is well written and clear. Much can be made of the mystery of "how to be on stage" and while there is a magic and charisma afforded those of us who are "natural" performers, Richard is right to point out - that is the starting point - not the final product.I think many people will devour the wealth of information and he rightly steers clear of being an expert in all areas - so he advocates getting voice training for example rather than trying to put vocal techniques into print himself. (That's for the likes of me!)
His mantra is PREPARATION and in this he is thorough as one would expect and of course you need to PRACTISE.
How to use power point is given a large amount of time and the overall feeling is that anyone can improve their skills and indeed how necessary it is to be striving for the next level. As a performer myself I realised how much is aligned to what I do and how much pefromers can offer to the business market.
