BYT: 'writers of this calibre'

'writers of this calibre' Mon, 2011-01-31 22:33 | Susie Wild Planet Magazine has reviewed the Bright Young Things titles in their brand spanking new edition (no.201). Harri Roberts had this to say about the books... On Tim Albin's shiny shiny cover designs: They say never judge a book by its cover but...
