Treacle Town
Tried to read this book, but couldn't get into it because of the language that was used and the way it was written. I do understand that it was the way they speak but I just couldn't finish it.

The Final Year
I absolutely loved this book. I don't normally get emotional over books, but I had tears by then end of this book. It made me get very emotional. I highly recommend this book!!

Treacle Town
A great portrayal of gangs, grief, and living in a violent neighborhood with seemingly no way out. You can't not grow attached to the characters and wish for them to achieve their dreams and escape the situations they are in. I feel like the book has very accurate representations of the more dangerous areas of the UK and how people on the internet react to different teenage gang crimes in the UK.

The Things We Leave Behind
I was recommended this book by a teacher at my school, so I thought I would give it a go. I really liked the book cover as it had a dark blue background that symbolises sadness and then gold and white which stands out on the cover, which could symbolise hope. I really enjoyed the book and it was a journey through the girls life and the difficulties that she faced. I recommend this book to any book lovers who love a book that they can't put down.

The Final Year
An incredible read with excellent presentations of the characters, emotions and entwines life experiences with a child's imagination perfectly. Has a heart wrenching story which really engages the reader and can be very relatable for others.

Little Bang
Little Bang is a heartwarming book that shows the reality of young mothers and the choices they have to make. The book is relatable for those who have gone through similar things and perfectly shows the mother's and father's perspectives.

Little Bang
An interesting, drama filled book that shows what reality was like in Ireland just after the abortion law was passed. A good way to educate teens on the history of abortion in a interesting way.

When I picked up this book, I immediately knew that I was going to enjoy this book by looking at the illustration of the book cover. When I started to read the first page, I was hooked into it. Reading further into the book, I couldn't put it down. It showed the different perspectives of the characters in the book and the difficulties that they faced and meeting girls. I highly recommend this book!!

Little Bang
This book is one of my favorites as it is very entertaining and it was also very informative. The information in the book was set out in a way that linked to the story however was still useful. I would recommend this book to those over the age of 12. Other than that is is a good read for anyone no matter of the age.

Katie

Little Bang
It is a good book and shows the problems and strengths about teen pregnancy and that sometimes that laws of countries are not good and might need to be changed. It also shows about how sometimes you don't have a choice about things but you can still make it work and find happiness in it.
