Dracula - Bram Stoker (Usborne Classics Retold Version)

  I think that I would have preferred a more complex version of the story than the one I read though it did manage to cut down the whole story into 138 pages which is quite a remarkable feat really. It is a great book for those wanting to read Dracula but don't want to read the full version, it is quite spooky still though so it doesn't drop too much of the actual story. (if it drops any of it!) If you had a test on Dracula the following day but hadn't the time to read the full copy, this book is a great revision guide as it would have all you need to know!

7/10 It wasn't too exciting but I'm sure the full version is better, disagree? Tell me why in the comments...

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.
