Thinking Of You - The Ultimate Escapist Read
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.

One of the gems of ancient Greek literature "The Trial and Death of Socrates" tells (as the title suggests) of the persecution and execution of Socrates through four dialogues written down by his friend Plato. Plato attempted throughout this work to use only Socrates voice and arguments and not colour them with his own views. Socrates comes across at first as a intensely irritating character especially in his thoughts on piety. However his defence of himself at his trail is brilliant and well worth reading. Socrates defence of justice and majority rule even when he is sure that it will lead to his demise is breathtaking and his attacks upon his accusers, whom he confuses and makes fools of regularly, is most entertaining.
