UCC Avid Readers

King of Nothing
This book is one of the better ones I've read it is funny and serious at the same time, I love how Anton is complaining about camping when it is one of my favorite things to do, I love how him and Mathew have such a funny wholesome relationship and how Anton seems to hate mathew most of the way through the book, Antons dad also sounds very similar to Kehinde with his mentality against women. It is an all round good book.

Glasgow Boys
This book was so good and so sad, it really describes what growing up in care is like, moving from home to home, and never feeling the feeling of having a safe home. I cried at the end and I think everyone who reads it will too.

The Final Year
I really liked this book, I love verse books and I feel that the problems in the book have been really well written from a perspective of an 11 year old navigating his last year of primary school.

Little Bang
I absolutely loved this book, it is definitely my favorite of the carnegie books I've read so far. I love how one of the main characters Mel can relate to me in many ways with her interest in physics and a general all round good person, Mel almost feel relatable because she is a little older than me and some of the struggles in the book I can relate to. Now Sid the other main character in the book he is a complete rebel, but he is also a funny good person at heart , against the rules, I love how they fall in love, its like the author has played into the fact that in physics opposites often attract. Thee was only one thing that I didn't like about the book and that was that the end wasn't a cliff hanger but it didn't have a definitive end and we don't really have an answer about what happened to their relationship after the events of the book.
