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...

The Blood Stone - Jamila Gavin

This was a great read! A bit confusing at times as it slides from past to present tense regularly. But other than that it is fairly easy to get through. I enjoyed this book because of the adventure and mystery it has in it. 8/10 This was an intriguing read.

To be a Cat - Matt Haig

Very much like another book I've read before, but so very different. I received this book as a gift from Ellie @ Book End ( http://musingsofabookshopgirl.blogspot.co.uk) . I was told that it was very good and I wasn't disappointed as it was an exceptional read! 7/10 A simple fun story!

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...
