The Golems eye - Jonathan Strod

A long wait after reading The Amulet of Samarkand, I found the Golem's eye in my school's library. (Incidentally I am a librarian there) Too good an opportunity to miss I simply had to get it out, which I did. And it was fantastic! The Bartimaeus Trilogy is one of the most imaginative and fun set of books that I have had the pleasure to read. I hope to get final installment: Ptolemy's gate as soon as I can!

9/10 At 507 pages this should keep you happy for a while...

Gone - Michael Grant

As thrilling as the Hunger games I'd say! This is an electrifying read! For older children, the gone books in order are: Gone, Hunger, Lies, Plague and Fear. You won't want to put it down, I didn't anyway! Michael Grant is a seriously good author and he also has a new book called bzrk. I rate this fabulous novel 10/10 A fantastic read!

Journey To Jo'burg - Beverley Naidoo

This was a novella My class read in school, and to be perfectly honest; for a fiction book it was very dry and just far too 'non-fiction' for a fiction book. So for me, this book was sadly a no. It had a lot in it for a novella, and I can see why we read it in class, especially for English. But unfortunately it just didn't have that 'humph' if you get what I'm talking about. 3/10 For me this wasn't a fiction it was a non-fiction, despite what the cover says...

Clockwork Angel - Cassandra Clare

This is the best book I've read in a while and I must say I'm quite impressed. I was gripped to the story during the first minute of reading. An amazing plot. An amazing style of writing, I just loved this amazing book! 10/10 I can't wait to read the sequel 'Clockwork Prince'
