clockwork
Name: Lewis Age 11

I like the part when the queen eventually finds out her son is made of clockwork and she goes mental. It is very scary at some points, like when the bartender Gretel was nearly killed.

I liked it when at the beginning Gary Boon talks as if everything is a joke. When the talent show is 2 weeks away, he is told by his parents that if he can go through 2 weeks without telling a single joke then he will get another $100 and so he gets the 1st prize and goes without telling a joke...

Pig heart boy

I liked this book because it is quite emotional and you keep wondering what is going to happen next. I would rate this 5/5 stars because it is interesting and wants to make you read more. I would recommend this book to 11-15 year olds since it would not be suitable for ages under 10 because it...

I have thoroughly enjoyed reading this book, as although being emotionally charged and poignant at times, it has also many cryptic and hidden meanings and symbolism, which add depth to the characters and story. Through Sutcliffe's intense description, I have come to understand what life is like f...

The Wall
Name: Chelsea Age 14
22 April 2013;Genre: Representation & Inclusion
The Wall is a seat-gripping book full of anticipation and adventure, but it also captures many moral issues. It is based on the Israeli/Palestinian conflict, and the political aspect may make this book sound incredibly boring, but only makes the book more interesting, as not only is Joshua on a...
