Not Going To Plan
I loved this book the twists and turns had me on the edge of my seat. The book felt so amazingly addictive and at some points I really struggled to put it down. I liked how it was a verse novel as it felt like the words flowed off the page into my brain which created the pictures like it was a comic. I liked the ending - which I won't spoil but oh if you haven't read it you are in for a treat. I read it as part of the Carnegie challenge and so far it is my favourite book. I liked how there were two sides and it was written in two views and people but it gives a nice contrast and it felt like I saw it in different views. So, I believe this book was written to show the struggle of teenage pregnancies and how important a relationship with your mum. This book is a 14+ but I read it when I was 12 and I really enjoyed it.

This book felt typical of it's genre. Appriachiating it is on the younger scale of carniege novels, parts that were intended to be funny did'nt always seem funny. I don't read any books of it's genre, so I would'nt know what to compare it against. It seems the thing that makes me dislike it the most is my person taste for genre's.

Ghostlines 
Despite a strong backstory ( rowan) and an interesting community, this book felt dragged down by some character issues. I could'nt comprehend some of the choices that tilda made. It seemed tilda's attempt to help albie make freinds was followed by quite an extreme action that did'nt make much sense. Albie's character feels stereotipically ' city boy'. Nevertheless, my younger sibling enjoyed this book, so it could simple be one having a different taste.

I really enjoyed the verse layout of this novel, which meant the books character was altered. The characters felt feasable yet interesting. I think the novel's plot had quite a few interesting path as well. I have'nt read multiple 'teenage pregnancy' books (only little bang) but I felt this story explored themes of poverty and social life as well.
