Selassie I Showcase - Michael Rose

Tonight I Said Goodbye by Michael Koryta

Advantages: Strong debut private detective novel.
Disadvantages: The characters could have been developed more fully.

As Tonight I Said Goodbye was about to be released in mid-2004 I was hearing a lot of publicity and praise for the author, Michael Koryta The buzz began when the book won the 2003 St Martins Press PWA Prize for Best First PI Novel, a terrific achievement but made more notable by the fact that he was only 20 when he wrote the book. I was curious to find out whether the book would live up to the hype. My hopes were high and I'm pleased to say, I haven't been disappointed. Set in Cleveland and told from the first person perspective of Lincoln Perry, this is private investigator novel that runs along the well-worn tracks of many PI books that have come before it.

Review of Tonight I Said Goodbye - Michael Koryta

Roses are Red....

Advantages: Beautiful flowers, wonderful variety
Disadvantages: Take a lot of care

As part of my review into roses, I plan to review the main areas of rose growing in detail.

Review of Roses

The Apple Of My i

Advantages: Full Internet, Massive storage, Great design, Superb battery life.
Disadvantages: The Megapixel of the camera is put to shame by other phones available.

I had been waiting for this day for some time. My 18 month contract with T-Mobile is coming up for renewal next week, however having had problems gaining reception in my area I'd opted to look elsewhere for a new contract. A few weeks back my problems were solved when I was shopping around to try and find the best mobile contract, and discovered that O2 would be stocking the Apple iPhone as of November the 9th. Not only was I looking for a new mobile contract, but also a replacement MP3 player so the Apple iPhone seemed ideal. I made plans to purchase the iPhone and on the evening of release made my way down to the nearest O2 store upon finishing work, bagging myself my very own iPhone at a price of £269.
