A Boy's Own Dale: A 1950s childhood in the Yorkshire Dales
Terry Wilson - 2011
But it was on the Dales themselves that Terry came into his own. Whether he was 'out-fishing' the adults with his homemade rod, grouse-beating for the lady of the manor, helping to bring in the farmers' hay in exchange for rabbit shooting rights, or growing his own prize caulis, his idiosyncratic and inventive mind is only matched by his love of nature.
Told with affection, dry humour and a respect for the landscape and its people, through Terry's eyes we meet farmers, mill owners and 'gentlemen of the road'. Beautifully illustrated with newly-commissioned line-drawn illustrations by Don Grant, A Boy's Own Dale is a magical memoir of a long-lost world.

Walking Shorts: 25 Laugh-out-Loud short stories
Mark Richards - 2018
In February 2016, desperate to do a physical challenge before my left knee decided the only thing it was good for was a waiting list, I asked my youngest son if he wanted to come for a walk with me. The result was ‘Father, Son and the Pennine Way,’ the story of 5 days and 90 miles on the UK’s toughest national trail. “A great read. It made me laugh out loud – and inspired me to challenge myself.” “I adored this book. It’s incredibly well-written, refreshing, witty and heart-warming.” “One of the funniest, most moving books I’ve read. Move over, Bill Bryson, you have a successor.” Those are just some of the reviews for ‘Father, Son and the Pennine Way.’ ‘Walking Shorts’ contains the stories that explain how I came to invite Alex out for a walk – and what happened afterwards. It’s my journey and – like ‘Pennine Way’ – it’s the story of a father/son relationship. It’s a book you can dip into when you need a laugh, a pick-me-up or some inspiration. It’s a book you can read in bed, on your commute or even on the loo. It’s a book that’ll make you smile, nod in agreement – and think, “Well if he can do that…”

SUMMARY The Subtle Art of Not Giving a F*ck: A Counterintuitive Approach to Living a Good Life by Mark Manson
OneHour Reads - 2018

Instead, the key to living a good life is in individuals knowing what matters to them and not wasting energy stressing over every little thing. He then proceeds to educate us on how to move forward by going backwards. Manson strongly believes that the endless pursuit of a flawless life, fueled by today's picture-perfect social media standards, is responsible for many of the psychological illnesses that have become rampant.

"Only A Nurse Could Laugh at This..." - Funny Stories and Quotes from Real Nurses for When You're Having "One of Those Days"
Allie Wilson - 2014
We eagerly do what most people never could, and come back for more the next day. So sometimes we have let off some steam and swap stories. Are you a nursing student wondering what you've gotten yourself into? If you're busy coping with your examinations, NCLEX and huge textbooks full of anatomy and physiology... If your mind is full of care plans, study guides, wound care and sharpening up your clinical skills... Take a break with this humorous book full of stories about what REALLY happens when you graduate and walk through those hospital doors and into a job on a ward. ‘Real stories from real nurses.' This collection of nursing humor - gathered from real nurses the world over - will have you nodding in recognition and laughing out loud. It will help you let off some steam and reconnect with the 'delightfully absurd craziness' that is our profession sometimes. ’The best quotes and stories from the first six issues of Wellbeing for Nurses Magazine' Every month, Wellbeing for Nurses Magazine has a section called 'You Gotta Laugh or You'll Cry' where nurses from around the world send in stories where they've said the wrong thing, where things have all gone pear shaped, patients have done something hilarious, or they've ended up covered in all kinds of fluid. These quotes and stories are the best of those sent in to Wellbeing for Nurses Magazine, which is published in over 150 countries around the globe. 'Nurses are always busy.' Sadly the average nurse or student nurse rarely has time to sit down with a nice, quiet cuppa (or a glass of red!) and read anything, let alone books on nursing. So unlike the massive medical books you had to lug to nursing school, this book is in short, easy to read snippets so you can dip in and dip out when you're on the bus or train, or you squeeze in a break. It's a five minute de-stress break made incredibly easy. ‘About The Authors' Allie Wilson is an ER nurse turned Author and editor of Wellbeing for Nurses Magazine, and her hubby, Marty Wilson is a Pharmacist turned Stand Up Comic turned Author.
