The London Eye Mystery - Siobhan Dowd

This book was recommended to me by a friend of mine, saying it was one of his favorite books ever, I knew it was bound to be good. It wasn't what I expected though, as the story was written in a very different way to many other books. I won't rave about this novel too much though because I have just read some fantastic YA thrillers and I have lots more to read. However I will say that if you are looking for something a little different to your typically written book, then try this because you'll not find the likes of it anywhere else. If you do like this style of writing I'll recommend 'A Monster Calls' By Patrick Ness.

A good read, 8/10

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!

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
