Couldn't agree more

At the risk of going on again about the large amount of celebrity biographies that are clotting up the bookshelves in bookshops this Christmas there is a great article in The Independent by Boyd Tonkin who moans not just about the “snowdrifts of Christmas drivel” making reference to celebrity dross but also expresses despair about the number of ‘humour’ books that are designed to appeal to people who do not like reading. I was nodding my head while reading and no doubt you will be too.
