    Pretty Bad Things

    Name: Rosie Age 13
    14 October 2010;

    Genre: Real life

    I personally loved this book. Whilst it is quite grown up with lots of sexual references and a swear word on nearly every page it has a lot of character and you cannot put it down. The story is constantly gripping and you can really feel everything beau and paisley are portrayed to be feeling. I...

Clara is my personal favourite character because...

    Genre: Books set in the past

    Poor Grace has been through so much, having to sell watercress on the streets to survive, as well as looking after Lily, who's not capable of looking after herself. She was smart, admirable, and quite fierce at times. Lily was a sweet girl, the fact that she relied on Grace (a lot) made her sound...

    Name: Lucy Age 8
    14 July 2010;

    I liked this book because there is lots of excitment and action in most of the characters. I read about twenty pages every night, I loved it so much! You can also learn how to be devious like Artemis Fowl.
