Charlie Bone | Jenny Nimmo

This is a great magical series by Jenny Nimmo, brilliant for Harry Potter fans, and is an overall fun read. Charlie Bone is a young boy with an unusual talent- he can enter and hear photographs and paintings, because of this, Charlie has to go to the mysterious Bloors Academy- a school that welcomes the 'endowed' and ordinary people alike. This is a series that you definitely should read if you like Harry Potter. It has a really interesting and unique plot, and set of characters, and you should even try it out if you do not like Harry Potter, as it is still very different. Sadly, as there are similar aspects to Harry Potter in this series, it is very overshadowed by Harry Potter.

Charlie - The Kitten Who Saved a Life | Sheila Norton

Image
Like the book before- Oliver, this is another funny, and heart-warming tale, that is a pleasure to read. Based after the events of Oliver, Charlie is a young cat, who has to go on holiday with his family who are in a bit of a mess. Charlie has to encounter various threats and challenges, such as seagulls, other cats, and the vet. Again this book really benefits, having it from the cat's perspective, which makes it more interesting and fun. Fans of other cat books will most likely enjoy this. But also again, there is some swearing, which means that not everyone will be able to enjoy this book. 304 Pages 8/10 ABR Rating: C (for info about ABR Ratings, Please Visit the  About  Page)

The Boy in the Striped Pajamas | John Boyne

Image
This is a fantastic story of innocence in a time of death and horror. The Boy in the Striped Pajamas is a book, based in Germany during the second world war. It shows Bruno- a young boy, moving because of his father job. I will not say anymore about the story, as I may ruin the book. This book is brilliant, slowly building up tension, gets a bit quicker, then comes to a lethal stop, and until the end, you are left wondering about something. This is a must read for everyone, sometime in their life 216 Pages 8/10 ABR Rating: C (for info about ABR Ratings, Please Visit the  About  Page)

Homestuck Book 1: Acts 1 & 2 | Andrew Hussie

Image
Homestuck originated as a webcomic and I wouldn't recommend it to people without any prior knowledge of the series beforehand as it is notorious for having a ridiculously complex plot. The first book follows John Egbert, Rose Lalonde and Dave Strider: Three kids each with their own separate jokes, gimmicks and quirks. On his birthday, John receives a beta copy of a game called Sburb, which affects the real world. Rose and John play it, and then everything spirals into madness. The book is rather funny though some of the humour has aged a fair bit  considering it has many pop culture references from the noughties which aren't exactly as relevant now as  they were when Homestuck was conceived. The paper is really good quality and it's very hardy and durable (you really seem to get your money's worth). At the bottom of each page there are notes based on the panels  above written by Andrew Hussie and they remind me of post-dev-notes sometimes they add to the comedy, but
