  • The Calling (Endgame, Book 1)

    EndGame The Calling

    Name: Catherine Age 12
    13 February 2015;

    Genre: Adventure

    What do we have here? We have adventure, action, mystery, sci-fi, a little more violence than I was necessarily comfortable with, a touch of romance (though don't read it for that). The chapters follow the various players and while it takes a little bit of time to familiarize yourself with their...

  • A Song for Ella Grey

    A Song For Ella Grey

    Name: Daisy Age 15
    30 January 2015;

    Genre: Friends and family

    Because it is told from an interesting stand point; an onlooker, not a main character. The imagery is beautiful and very emotional and it summarizes youth incredibly realistically. Almond clearly understands what it's like to be a teenager.

  • The Earth is Singing

    The Earth is Singing

    Name: Francesca Age 13
    30 January 2015;

    Genre: Books set in the past

    I recommend this book because it is an amazing beautiful story about a girl who was forced to grow up really quickly in the space of 1 year. It also opens your eyes to how harsh and cruel it was living as a Jewish person during the War.

    30 January 2015;

    Genre: Friends and family

    I found this book ok. It was a bit too lovey for my liking, and some parts of it didn't make much sense from my standpoint.

  • A Song for Ella Grey

    A Song for Ella Grey

    Name: Grace Age 14
    29 January 2015;

    Genre: Friends and family

    I have enjoyed books by David Almond before, such as Skellig, so I had very high hopes for this book. Having finished this book nearly a week ago, I'm still unsure about whether it fulfilled them or not. The plot of A Song for Ella Grey was supposed to be filled with mystery and questions - which...

    28 January 2015;

    Genre: Adventure

    From the author of 'If I Stay' comes her new book, 'I Was Here', a raw and deeply moving story which centres on the very real issue of teen suicide. It explores the loss and grief felt by those left behind, and the emotional journey taken in order to move forward. When Cody's best friend Meg comm...
