Anywhere - Jon Robinson

Hi everybody, I'm really sorry about the evident lack of books posted onto my blog recently, there has indeed been a massive shortage in posts due to just how busy I've been!...
So without further ado we are going to head on-wards straight into today's review: A book that I received for Christmas after loving the first in its series; Nowhere.
The book is thrilling and it adds a whole new story-line to the first book, and I'm telling you now. It isn't a bad story-line or even an okay one: it's good, and when I say good I mean amazing! Jon Robinson really surprises us with a sequel that is even better that the first novel in the trilogy: yes, I did say trilogy. The next book is due to come out later this year, which reminds me: Happy New Year! (Just a little bit late, oops...)

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
