The Book Thief - Marcus Zusak

This book gripped me on a whole new level, it was a real eye opener as it showed me how it was to live in the period of world war 2. The story was written so well and there were so many aspects of it making it different from other stories. Aspects that made it great: it flowed, it got to you, it was so innocent and the book seemed so human. Facts about it that distinguish it from the rest include that the novel is narrated by none other than Death, or that the pictures drawn by the Jewish fist fighter are actually in the book itself.

10/10 If you have anything to say then head over to 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.
