Ely College Reading Group

Glasgow Boys
I absolutely loved this book. The two main characters had such deep personas and their story and relationships were developed so well. The Scottish was written so well I could hear the Scottish in my head when I was reading it. This is the best one I have read so far!!

All That It Ever Meant
I didn’t really like this book because it jumped around a lot and I couldn’t really tell where one section ended and one started. It was strange however because the twist at the end made me feel something.

The Things We Leave Behind
I really enjoyed this book because it made me understand the hardships of the world we could end up living in, in the future. I loved the 1000 paper cranes theme as I can make cranes myself.

Little Bang
This book challenged me to look at the subject of abortion from different angles and also consider the issue of making decisions about your body and your future when you are very young. I really felt the weight and pain of these decisions with the characters. I highly recommend this book.
