The Hunger Games Trilogy | Suzanne Collins

These are incredible books that really blew  me away. In a dystopian future, Katniss Everdeen, is living a normal life at district twelve, when she is forced to participate in the Hunger Games, a battle to the death. These books are so great because of the brilliant concept, characters, and storyline, and though Mockingjay has some bad points, as it is entirely different to the other two, the good far outweighs the bad. You really want to know what happens next in the story, and you really want it to keep going forever. Suzanne Collins really knows  how  to write a novel.

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 Ark Plan | Laura Martin

Image
This is a brilliant take on Michael Crichton's Jurassic Park. After scientist brought the dinosaurs back, 99.9% humanity was destroyed, and forced into underground bomb shelters, originally made for the chance of a nuclear fallout. Sky, a resident of one of these shelters, receives a message from her disappeared father, and she needs to deliver it. Sky is an interesting character, as she sometimes even pity's the dinosaurs, which is unlike all the other characters. Laura Martin really manages to somehow make earth seem so alien, and weird, and I love it. This is a great read, and I expect lots from the author in the future. 353 Pages 7/10 ABR Rating: B (for info about ABR Ratings, Plea se Visit the  About  Pa ge)

The Bodigulpa | Jenny Nimmo

Image
This book really makes Jenny Nimmo look bad. After the brilliant Charlie Bone series, I never expected Jenny Nimmo to write one of the worst books I have ever read. The story is about a weird old man who grows a man-eating plant. This book is so short, bizarre and just is not a fun or enjoyable book to read. 96 Pages 1/10 ABR Rating: B (for info about ABR Ratings, Please Visit the  About  Page)
