Wolf Siren
I like the amount of mystery put into the book it wasn't too much to make me annoyed but it was like a good amount to make you intrigued. There wasn't really much description and when there was it was short and not in depth
Haajrah
Handle With Care
This book is heart-breaking. All I wanted to do was wrap Ruby in a hug and help her. I didn't like the characters, other than Ruby, as they were pushing their own agendas and ideas onto Ruby

Twenty Four Seconds from Now
I liked that it was quick to read because it was in verse/poetry form. The story didn't hook me in.
Laura
Not Going To Plan
I liked that it was in verse/poetry - it made it a quick read. I wish there were more development of the characters that you get in regular books
Laura
Traumaland
The book covered some heavy topics, like trauma and mental health, in an honest and interesting way. I felt bad for the main character.
Laura
The Boy I Love
I liked the development of the romance but I felt that there weren't many twists.
Libby
The Boy I Love
The romance between the two main characters and how it was a forbidden romance because of the time the book was set in (World War 1). I didn't like the ending as I felt the story shouldn't have had a happy ending.
Laura
The Boy I Love
I loved this story the best. I liked the descriptions and adjectives.
Grace
On the Wall
I liked the imagery in the story.
Grace
Ghostlines
I liked the dog and the imagery in the story.

Birdy Arbuthnot’s Year of ‘Yes!’
I liked the side character developments, especially Charlie. I didn't like how Birdy was privileged but doesn't acknowledge it herself. All of her bad actions had zero consequences and everything still ended up being handed to her on a silver spoon. She was playing at being poor.
Laura
Shrapnel Boys
I liked the character development and the storytelling/plot of the story. I didn't like the pacing.
