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...

I would give it 6/10, as it was quite interesting. However, it wasn't very long, and I read it in about 4 lessons.

Yeah I read it in like, 15?! Maybe if it hadn't have dragged on as much as it did, I might have enjoyed it more... Thanks for commenting, hope you get a new blog soon,

I agree with Isaac I just read on because the teacher was stopping at every sentence!

I tried to read on but I kept being stopped by the teacher-who-shall-remain-anonymous. So yeah, and thanks for commenting fellow librarian person.

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!
