Tuesday, 21st December 2010
Books are big business at Christmas, as people rush to the local Waterstones or WH Smith's to pick up the first book they see on the bestseller shelf for a loved one. Every year the same type of books are released, and this year is no exception.
- Michael McIntyre’s Comedy Book – In his latest autobiography/stocking filler/excuse to have his adorable face plastered across a book, Michael explains his runaway success in a series of amusing anecdotes perfectly sized to be read whilst on the loo. Punctuated throughout with Michael laughing at his own jokes, in print form.
- The Girl Who Spawned Numerous Book Titles – This mysterious thriller is both mysterious and thrilling. Do you know someone who enjoys being entertained? Do you know someone who enjoys mystery and thrill? Then this book set is the present for them. Available in box sets of 50.
- Abused: My Tragic, Tragic Life – In this handy book, all the popular tragic life stories are put together in one easy-to-read volume. No longer will you have to satiate your desire for voyeuristic misery by buying several different books – all the misery, all the convenience!
- Nigella’s/Jamie’s/Gordon’s Food Porn Cookbook – The perfect gift for housewives and people who think they’re foodies but are actually not, this narcissistic book contains more photos of the chefs and pointless stories about ‘why I love cranberries’ than actual recipes. When it’s Nigella though, the more photos the better.
- 10 Funniest Things We Stole from the Internet – Wow, isn’t the Internet a kooky, cool place?

Lovely. Or you could just go on the Internet and find all these for free.
- Stephen Fry’s Whimsical Compendium of Useless Frippery – It’s Stephen Fry, what more can we say? He could cough onto a page and sell millions.
