Review of Sapphire Battersea by Aisha Ali

 This novel is by an author called Jacqueline Wilson. The storyline of this book continues from the book called "Hetty Feather" which is also written by this author.

The plot of this book is in an orphanage home where a young girl is determined to find someone she has been looking for her whole life. The genre of this book is adventure and I think that this book is suitable to be read by anybody who is above ten year old because it is very interesting. The storyline continues in a book called "Emerald Star" which is also about the same young girl who keeps on having different adventures to find somebody dear to her.

I like this book because you are always excited to know what is going to happen next and the story does not end with one book, there story continues from three books.

Paper towns

Paper towns is about two friends who (margo) and (queintin) who are best friends and margo tells Quentin to go out at night through their hometown margo desipears and Quentin needs clues to find margo. The clues lead to and adventure with her friends that is funny whilst they are on a adventure. He needs to come to a better understanding of friendship and love. It was written by John green 

I would give it 5 stars. This is a funny book.

HUNGER GAMES REVIEW BY ALAMIN

 HUNGER GAMES REVIEW


The story is set in the future, after the destruction of North America. The country is called Panem. There are twelve poor districts governed by the rich Capital. There was a thirteenth district in the past but the Capitol destroyed them because they rebelled.  

The story is about Katniss Everdeen, a sixteen-year-old girl. Her father died and now she has to kill animals for her family to eat. Her younger sister, Prim, is chosen to be a tribute, but Katniss volunteers to go instead. The other “tribute” from District 12 is a boy named Peeta. -  

One night in 2003, Suzanne Collins was watching TV. It was at the time of the US invasion of Iraq. The only programmes she could find on TV were ‘reality’ programmes of young people competing to win a million of pounds  and news programmes about the war.  This gave her idea to do Hunger Games.

The witches by Roald Dahl

The witches is about a young orphan boy who lives with his grandmother, and they go on holiday and in the hotel as the young boy is having fun. The boy finds out that the hotel has some ordinary guests which get rid of every child forever.....

I think the witches is an amazing book because it keeps you occupied and you get really eager to keep on reading, I just can't put the book down!

I would give this book 5/5 because it really hooks the reader onto the book and you'll love it so much that you'll keep on reading it over and over again. 

I think this book is targeted at any age because no matter how old you are you would love this book.

Gifted Hands - The Ben Carson story

RBen Carson, an extrodinary man that gives dying children a second chance.

This tells the life of a man and how he went through all these struggles of rasicm, prejudice and bullying only finding help through God and a caring mother to become one the most renowned neurosurgeons in the world. 

Teenagers and adults alike will be emerged in this book and find them selfs reading for hours on end. It will test the reading skills of many confident readers so don't take this story half-heartedly.

I love this book because its as if your there with him through all those events in his life and you feel everything he feels he captures the moment perfectly and puts it into words. One moment your laughing and he next the next fearing for his life. He cleverly goes through his life story taking every step of the way. 

This book will tug on every heart string in your body and have you on the edge of your seat, his in inticif story telling and use of structure and use of words put this novel on the top of my to-read-list.

Both boys then learn they share the same birthday. Very soon the become best friends, however Bruno still doesn't understand the situation...

This is a really good book and very emotional. I would rate this book a 5 stars as it has a really good moral and story. To enjoy the book you would need to understand it . I would suggest that this book is read by a person with the reading age of 13 or above.

Book review of Martin pig

Martin pig is a very good and ingaging book. Once you start reading the book, you just can't stop.                    The theme that goes through out the book is a murder theme. Yes a murder takes place.

What I like about Martin pig is that it is a story that is not really heard before, it is different. As well as this, I like how there was a really big twist at the end of the story, and how a charchter in the book was diseaved. If you read this book in school, you will start to enjoy your lessons more. Sometimes you might not know what some words mean, but you can ask someone. 

I didn't really like this book at the start, but when I went past a few pages, I started to enjoy it. That's why they say 'don't judge a book by its cover'.

My favourite part in this book was when Martin had forged his dads signature for money, and how he had tried to hide a really dark crime he had made.

Of mice and men review

I am going to tell you my opinion on the book of mice and men. This book starts off with two men, the small one being called George and the bigger called Lennie and they are running away from people because of something Lennie has done which you will have to read about because that will give away a bit of the story.

later on in the story when they managed to run from the mob which are chasing them they settle on a ranch which they will work on for a period of time, they make new friends there and is a lot of drama that occurs there as well.

To conclude this book is an all round smashing book and I am very pleased that I have read this book and has been a joy as well.

Book Review of Wonder

'Wonder' is an amazing and heartfelt story. it is about a boy who has a severely disfigured face. He has never gone to school and he is going for the first time... When you read this story you are taken on a journey of middle school which is already difficult as it is, not to mention that Auggie is far from normal...

I love this book because it is so personal you feel that you are going through his pain and happiness! It is one of the best and saddest books I have ever read! It is an amazing book and I think that the author was amazing to write such a good book. It will leave you on the edge of your seat, wanting to read more, it is so amazing that you won't be able to put the book down. I have read it over 5 times and I never get bored of it!

My favourite part of the story is when Auggie makes his first friend called 'Jack.' I felt so happy and proud of Auggie because you feel as if he is related to you and you are learning more and more about him and when ever he achieves something you are so happy and proud of him. The part that made me so sad is when Auggie is told some sad news...

Of mice and men review

Of mice and men is about two men.not really two men , one man and a man with a mans body but a child's brain. In every workplace they travel together to earn some money Lennie always messes up and George has to save pennies ass and run away. One day George and Lennie arrive at a new workplace and settle in. The bosses son curly loves to fight and have came in to the bunk area and talk to George and then tries to talk to Lennie but George said don't talk to none you will cause trouble for us two so Lennie keeps quite....

I think this book is emotional because Lennie is mental and at that time they never knew what mental is so they kept on abusing him,but George was their for him.

Holes Review

In my opinion this novel is very interesting. It starts of with Stanley walking and as he looked up there was trainers coming towards him then he hit his head but these trainers were stolen...

The police came and have arrested him for a crime that he hasn't even committed!

Stanley got a sentence he was put in prison were they dig holes in the middle of no where. You can't run away because it is a big place full of dust and it will just carry on and on...

What will Stanley do?

This book is emotional because Stanley went to jail for no reason and he got punished a lot for something he haven't even done!

Goldilocks twist

As Goldilocks walks into the forest, she spots the mansion of her dreams a few metres away. Walking towards the mansion, she notices  that the door's slightly apart, therefore , she enters. The mansion had belonged to the three bears, who she despised. She found three bowls of porridge laying on the table; being  vile as she is, she looked into the cupboards, only to find cleaning supplies. She poured the chemicals into the porridge, hurrying upstairs to hide. A few minutes later, the Bears had come in. They ate the porridge and had felt dizzy later on, before falling into darkness.

Twelfth Night Review

In the play Twelfth Night there are nothing but mysteries in Illyria. The characters that took part in this play were: duke Orsino, viola, Sebastian, malvolio, Maria, Olivia, sir Andrew, sir Toby, Antonio, Fabian, and feste. The play is about mischief that happens twelve days after Christmas hence the name Twelfth   Night. The thirst for love was real in Illyria because the phrase "love at first site" was definitely true. There was a love triangle between viola, Olivia and duke Orsino all in all I would give this book a 4/5.

Beauty On The Leave

All changes when the fragile Belle falls deeply

With who, with what?

It isn't a person, but with a stone-cold heart, the only options are monsters

That, it is

Or that's what it's cast as 

She sees through the vicious coat the monster wears

There's a charming man who yearns for love, just like her

Everyday, they spend their time together, accompanying one another 

But, what the beast doesn't know is that the girl he loves,

Is waiting 

She waits for the time where he changes form

Into innocent and sweet,

So no longer vile, she can up and leave
