The World According To Bertie - Alexander McCall Smith
With the Mumsnet
Book Club already thriving, we thought it about time we started reviewing grown up books and for this category we're looking for books published in the last year or so that are easy reads, something uplifting to take to a sunny beach, or to pick up in a quiet moment at home (should you be lucky enough to have one of those). At some point when we've reached a critical mass we'll be handing out a dazzling literary award to the winning book (watch out Mr Booker) so please add as many reviews as you like and feel free to comment on other folks' choices. As ever, if you have any suggestions for new categories you'd like to see, please send them over to contactus@mumsnet.com.

Number 4 in the Scotland Street series, this is yet another warm, clever and gently paced read. The characters are recognisable as 'real life' people, but quirky enough to be very interesting. I love all the subtle commentary on life, relationships, philosophy and Edinburgh. If you haven't read the others, do start at the first book "44 Scotland street".
