Books Reviews

I honestly expected this little book with a few recopies in it but was pleasantly surprised when it arrived!
There are tons of wonderful Afrikaans recopies inside and my mother instantly fell in love!
Perfect gift for a lover of Plaaskos!

Not here to review just to thank you for the book. Love it and i hope we'll have more transactions in the future!

I unfortunately only received my copy of the book after I finished listening to the audio book. Non the less, If you played the game and you are not sure whether you want to read it or not, do. If you did not play the game, still read it, it's a good book.

Yes it covers everything that happened in the game, but there are bits in the book that are not discussed or showed in the game. Like the flashbacks Kratos had of how he ended up in Midgar. There also certain parts in the book that describe events better than the way it happened in the game. If you really want to fork out the extra cash, rather get the audio book as the reader is very entertaining and you will enjoy it (spoiler alert, Mimir reads the story) ;)

The only sucky thing about the anniversary collection is that you actually need all of the house editions to make it look cool. But apart from that, I personnaly think that The Prisoner of Azkaban has the best looking cover between the three books that have now been released.

If you can't decide on which house edition to get and you want the most beautiful one, go for Ravenclaw. Even though I got Gryffindorr, Ravenclaw looks better.

Despite most people believing that the Waffen SS were a highly trained and elite fighting unit, this book tells us a very different story. I personally found the info in the book to be easy to follow and digest thus far. The reality of what the Waffen SS units had to go through and their overall strength at the start of the Normandy campaign is quite interesting.

The colour profiles of the various vehicles used is great (very heavy on the Panther tanks, but understandably so). Only giving it 4 stars because: A) Have not finished reading the entire book and B) No colour profiles of any Tiger tanks.

Anyone interested in this particular unit of the German army during this particular time period of WWII should add this title to their library.

“Sweepslag” - easily read, topics covered are well researched, the book provides an insightful glimpse into the deep dark workings of the underworld. Action-packed, addictive yet adventurous story. Excellently written. The story is engaging throughout, one cannot help but wonder what will happen next and will the protagonists prevail in their quest to free themselves. I highly recommend this book not only to young adults, but to anyone who marvels at anything crime related. Interesting and very unexpected twist in the end! Read the book!

if you want a book that will make you laugh ,this it, her writing style is my biggest crush,I've read all her books and none has disappointed. When you read her books its like having a conversation with your girlfriends that's how often you find yourself in agreement with how she views things and life generally.

It looks and feels very plastic, and the "glassy" part is quite thick and dark, so it's difficult to see the printings on the locket. The inside is also plain and blank.

Like the product description says, you push a button and the hat announces a Hogwarts house at random. The voice doesn't sound exactly like the one in the movies, but close enough, and it's probably just the nature of the product that makes it sound different. I would've liked if the hat moved a bit as it spoke.

Although the book and story is magnificent, this is most definitely not the 10th anniversary illustrated deluxe edition it is just the normal paperback edition. Very dissapointed in raru but Patrick Rothuss does not disappoint.

Raru Admin Note: The publisher changed the edition to the normal paperback edition, but also kept the same barcode as the 10th anniversary illustrated deluxe edition it seems.

Absolutely fabulous book - thank you Raru for making it such an effortless purchase, WITH on time delivery.

When I came across this edition of all the stories in one, beautiful, leather-bound, silver-lined paged, entirety, I knew I had to have it!
It's beyond worth the price and the original illustrations just adds to how authentic this edition feels.
If you love Wonderland as much as I do, go get this book. You won't regret it!

One of the best Manga series ever! It includes a few colour pages with artwork of the characters as well.

Really happy with the product. Its a well made and good quality book.

Interested in human potential. Want to understand conditioning and its effects.
John has a great way of relaying his experience as a teacher inside and outside the system. The book certainly helped me see my schooling for what it was, is and will be.

I hoped for a more in depth read but was disappointed that the contents was written for someone wanting more knowledge of Japan than on the subject of longevity. It's a quick read, leaving you feeling frustrated. I learned one or two interesting facts but not enough to recommend this book for someone to buy. It's a beautiful book with an quality cover but disappointing contents.

I highly recommend this book if you enjoy or are interested in the Navy Seals operations or the military in general. It is well written and I couldn't put the book down. Brandon Webb's writing style makes you feel every emotion the operators go through and explains every character so well, that it feels as if you know the men personally. I gained more respect for these men and the brotherhood they have. To be a Navy Seal is not just a work, it's a calling and lifestyle, and that is very clear and heartfelt in this book.

This is a lovely gift for a young person who enjoys the military. The story is well told and easy to follow and understand

A really gripping sci-fi filled with really interesting, relatable characters - human and alien alike :) Becky Chambers has developed such a fantastic rich universe in the previous two books and this continues in this installment :)

Really well written, full of heart and whimsy just as much as it is full of mystery, intrigue, wonder, humour and adventure :) If you love sci-fi and well written characters this is a must read! A beautiful look at what it truly means to be human :)

Interesting and a quick read if you are looking for something informative but not textbook

Really an amazing insight into Leia pre episode 4, and how she became the leader she is.

This is a brilliant book that combines fantasy with the drama of being a young adult. Every page is captivating and a very good start to a series.

Chef Dominque Ansel does not only have a talent for baking, but also for writing - he is truly an ARTIST! His stories are captivating and transports you onto a rollercoaster of emotions that makes you feel immediately inspired and passionate about baking. The greatest piece of motivation and advice he gives is to "Create and Re-Create" not only to refine your skills but to build up your confidence. The recipes in the book are organized by beginner, intermediate and advanced - at first some recipes might seem intimidating but it is dividing up into components to complete and is not intimidating but oh so WORTH IT in the end! I definitely recommend buying this book because not only does it give AMAZING recipes, it gives you an experience of a lifetime of techniques and the behind the story scenes of each creations.

Raru not only delivered me a book in excellent condition but also a few days before the time. I am completely over the moon about my book and look forward to purchasing more soon:)

Thank you so much

This is what you want: a collection of C. S. Lewis's poems. From a quick count it includes more than a 100 of his poems.

The cover of the book itself is rough in a good way, giving depth to the illustration and making it "feel" like a real book. The pages are beautifully cut, making them seem like parchments rather than simply prepackaged paper.

If you like Lewis, or if you just like poetry, this is well worth your money.
