  • Forgive My Fins

    Forgive My Fins

    Name: Jess Age 13
    06 May 2011;

    Genre: Friends and family

    It isn't the normal book that is about at the minute (there is no mention of vampires or werewolf's). You get really stuck in the book quite easily, after you want to know what is going on in the Lily-Quince-Brody, love triangle. I found it really good, quite addictive in the end!!!

    25 April 2011;

    Genre: Fantasy

    The fact that the author's description was so accurate that you could imagine it happening right in your room which made you scared to death!!!!!!!!!!! I stayed up full night to finish reading the book, but couldn't sleep the rest of the night because I kept having nightmares. Horror. Recommended...

  • Power Of Five Bk 4: Necropolis

    Necropolis

    Name: Zahra Age 9
    29 March 2011;

    Genre: Adventure

    Had all the thrill that Anthony could fit into a couple of hundred pages. That Scarlett's father was working for Nightrise was a nice little twist. I also liked the idea of making Scott and Jamie inseparable. i really enjoy the cliffhangers that Anthony Horowitz leaves, it makes me feel a lot mor...

    I liked the fact that they use a girl who is not perfect. This book is very true to life and i got practically glued to it. i think it is a cool quirky read and it an absolutely fab read!

  • Exodus

    Exodus

    Name: Iffath Age 14
    28 February 2011;

    Genre: Science Fiction

    The start was quite slow for me, and I have to admit that before I actually sat down properly to read it yesterday, I'd read the first page on several occasions and could not get into it. Since I got the book about a month ago, I was pretty excited to read it because it sounded different from any...

    Name: Natasha Age 13
    26 February 2011;

    'Just in case' is literally THE best book I have ever read - it's so intriguing, intelligent, wacky and mysterious... It's so different from any other book, and is suitable for both genders.

  • The Phantom of the Opera

    The Phantom Of The Opera

    Name: Amelia Age 13
    16 February 2011;

    Genre: Supernatural

    It is a good book but very hard to read. The language is a little bit difficult and it takes a while to get into, but when you get used to it, it's not too difficult to understand. The names I think were the hardest because they are French. Some words were also in French. Overall, I would recomme...

  • Private Peaceful

    Private Peaceful

    Name: Demi-serrant Age 12
    02 February 2011;

    Genre: Books set in the past

    I would recommend this book to children aged 12+ and to people who want a change. I would recommend this to emotional people but be careful you're sure to cry.
