Books I've read this week

Sweet Hearts: Model Behaviour by Jo Cotterill
Children's, 8 years +
(You'll need tissues for this insightful read...)

10/10

 

Welcome to Alien School by Carol Heart and Ed Eaves
Children's, Picture book
(The book starts out normal but rapidly heads into life in space school!)

10/10

Picasso's Trousers by Nicholas Allan
Children's, Picture book,
(An informative read about the famous painter...)
6/10

Alfie: All About Alfie by Shirley Hughes
Children's, Early Reader/Picture book

8/10

Monstersaurus by Claire Freedman and Ben Cort
Children's, Picture book
(This is a read which surprised me in a good way, with some super cute illustrations!)
10/10

Minnow and the Bear by Ben Blathwayt

10/10

Gary and Ray by Sarah Adams

(A sentimental read, with a few surprises...)
10/10

Desert Angel by Charlie Price
Young Adult, Thriller
(This book is AMAZING! I do not lie. I've heard it's going to be made into a TV drama too. No sequel as of yet...)
10/10

Heart-shaped Bruise by Tanya Byrne
Release Date:  May 2012, cover TBD
Young Adult
(This leaped to the top of the reading title purely by the title. What's inside is hard going, but the humour helps lighten it a little...)
9/10

Eclipse by Stephanie Meyer
Young Adult
(Ok so I'm liking the series as a light read more the second time around. Bella is still often an idiot, but fun things happen!)
9/10

 

 

 

Books I'm Re-Reading

 

 

Breaking Dawn by Stephanie Meyer
Just started this last night, it's one I've been eager to get to. The hardback is a bit of a brick though....
