Wolf Siren
Although I like the idea of a retelling of a fairytale, I did not particularly like this book. The plot was slow and some of the characters were childish. A few events seemed unnatural but they needed to happen for the story to continue. There are mysteries to solve, but the book often felt boring. Despite this , I liked the themes of nature and feminism. Red having sight issues is interesting to me, because, in Red Riding Hood, Red could not see well enough to recognise that her own grandmother was a wolf. While I was reading this book, I wondered what time it was set in. Overall, I think that this book is too emotional and the plot was slow and sometimes boring, however I did like the incorporation of elements from the fairytale Red Riding Hood, and the strong themes of nature and feminism. If I had to rate this book out of 10, I would give it a 6/10.

Not Going To Plan
Great book, epic story really engaging and relatable (not the getting pregnant part) but I found the print style very hard to follow and IT DIDNT END

The Boy I Love
This was a very good book with many good descriptions, but I didn’t like the writing style as it was hard to follow.

Chronicles of a Lizard Nobody
In my opinion, Chronicles Of a Lizard Nobody is a very interesting and funny book, with and interesting plot that I won’t spoil, a plethora of characters and… France? Overall, this book is amazing and I highly recommend it to everyone from ages 5-14. 9.5/10 Peter Cranwell
