Things I Learned on the 6.28 by Stig Abell
A book to help make books part of your life
Beyond splendid. . a brilliant idea, beautifully realised * Bill Bryson *
Far more than a guide, this is a book lover's companion, a wise friend's recommendations, an answer to the question "what to read next" and why. I wish I knew half as much about books as Stig Abell * Kit de Waal *
A witty, warm and wonderfully wise celebration of the written word. A huge treat * Lucy Foley *
It's like being a member of the best book club ever * Frank Skinner *
Stig's books are must-haves. He educates, informs and entertains in equal measure * Dermot O'Leary *
This is Abell at his best - frank, funny and fascinating. Did Clive James and Bill Bryson have a secret love child? * Lee Child *
A thoroughly enjoyable saunter through some great, and not so great, works of literature * Times Literary Supplement *
A book for Christmas and the fireside, but a book also for all days and weathers, even for a chilly morning commuter train - once commuting is back in fashion -- Allan Massie * Scotsman *
It is always interesting when an intelligent reader comes fresh to books you have known for a long time . . . the whole book is a lucky dip: put in your thumb, pull out a plum, and relish it. * Yorkshire Post *
The whole exuberant book is a lucky dip: put in your thumb, pull out a plum, and relish it. A book for Christmas and the fireside, but a book also for all days and weathers, even for a chilly morning commuter train - once commuting is back in fashion. -- ALLAN MASSIE * SCOTSMAN *
