Top 5 most requested nonfiction titles for March 2013

“I cannot remember the books I’ve read any more than the meals I have eaten; even so, they have made me.”
- Ralph Waldo Emerson

Rod Stewart (I will never, as long as I live, understand his popularity and, moreover, why women swoon at the mere mention of his name), Anabel Langbein, Miranda Hart (YEAH! I lurve Miranda and you need to check Laura's review of the television series), the Road Code and Jamie Oliver. Such an unusual mix this month. I judge you not, though, people. I'm eyeing the odd mix that is my own request list and thinking "People who live in glasshouses shouldn't walk around naked." My shortest post ever? Maybe. Why? Because its not about me, it's about the books *steps out of your way and let's you request them* Be well, people.

Greetings from the far north! I'm currently visiting the parental unit in Tai Tokerau where, I'd like to briefly brag, the scenery is as total amazeballs as you might think it would be. Also where, oddly enough, I can't get coverage at mum's place in Waipapakauri, but can get full bars while standing on Ninety Mile Beach. That made me LOL in the loudest way.

Today's list is the simplest ever: our Top 5 most requested autobiographies for November 2012. Happy Christmas Eve, people!

In my mind, this introduction was going to be an absolutely stunner. I was going to wow you all with my wit and way with words. And then I woke up and realised that's so not my style. Instead, I'm going to keep it simple. Today's Top 5 list features an NZ cook, a rugby player, The Rod (as in Stewart AND I see that they managed to fit the word 'knickers' in to the synopsis somehow), rushing woman's syndrome, and a place on the Shore that makes the most amazeballs food I have ever seen. I give you our Top 5 most requested nonfiction for November 2012.
