City Of Bones - Cassandra Clare

  As I'd read the first two installments of The infernal devices series the first of the mortal instruments was a new reality to me, although the story line was quite similar.The main change for me was that one story is set in Victorian times, and the one I'm reviewing now is set in modern day. As the story's are both very similar when something happens in one series you think: Is that going to happen later on in the other series? Which can be very interesting, but some people won't want secrets unveiled and will stick to one series. I am not one of these people as I'd happily read either or both but my preference would be The infernal devices as I enjoyed the Victorian approach rather than modern day. This series is for older readers as the Victorian version can be read at a younger age.

  7/10 It was good but took a while to get through.

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...

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.

The Lord Of The Rings - J.R.R. Tolkien

Sorry that I haven't posted for a while, but when you see the title of this review, you'll properly find out why! The book is written very thoroughly with lots of detail and history. Did you know Tolkien even made his own language! I think the books were all good but I especially enjoyed the second one: The Two towers as it is where they really get into the fellowship and it gets a ton more interesting! Not for the light-hearted this book will take you to the limit!  I will give numbers out of ten for each book... The Fellowship of the Ring: 9/10, The Two Towers: 10/10 and finally, The Return Of the King: 8/10
