Chronicles of a Lizard Nobody
The whole book was hilarious. My favourite character was Zeke. I liked how the book wasn't just a comedy, it had lots of deeper themes. I'd give this book 4/5 stars. It was very good.

The Boy I Love
I would rate this book 3/5. This is because it displays LGBTQ+ themes and does a great job at emphasising the difficulties people would have had being gay at the time, especially in war. However, in some parts there was a lack of action, making it a bit boring to read, which is why it gets 3/5 and not a 5/5.

This book was great. The end was so relieving and well-written. I was on the edge of my seat the whole time. It gave me a deeper understanding of people who suffer from anxiety and panic attacks. This book had some great aspects and a happy ending. I loved POPCORN by Rob Harrell.

Wolf Siren
A heart-warming story about connecting to nature. I really felt a deep sympathy for the main character and the way she has always been an outsider. I strongly recommend this to any readers who like magic and nature.

Chronicles of a Lizard Nobody
My experience with the book was great I thought it was very exciting and playful. I felt as if I was in a trance when reading this book, it was so enticing it didn't even need illustration. Despite its playful dynamic, it still requires some thought put into the reading. Overall, with elements of magic animals and even some education, I really enjoyed The Lizard Nobody by Patrick Ness.

Andrew is a boy who has anxiety and needs to take a school photo when life decided to give him a hard time. I like it and give it 8/10

The book has been beautifully written by Josh Silver and the context has been extensively researched. Without ruining the story, the book covers a young man who has suffered a horrible accident, and has been led to believe that he has become mentally unstable. However, he finds a mysterious nightclub that offers a vivid VR headset service that has some expected results in confronting past events....
