Book Review: Arrow Head

ArrowheadArrowhead by Ruth Eastham
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Arrowhead was an interesting read, it's set in another country, Norway, and involves mythology becoming real. There is horror and adventure in this book; it is something different. I would like if there was a sequel and it became a series. I would recommend it to readers in Year's 6 and 7.

Review: Children of Blood and Bone

Children of Blood and Bone (Legacy of OrĂ¯sha, #1)Children of Blood and Bone by Tomi Adeyemi
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

4.5 stars

I would describe it as a really good mix of fiction, fantasy and a thriller and a metaphor for the horrific racist events that have happened in the real world. The unpredictability of some characters and plot lines were outstanding, it kept me guessing to the end.
The only flaw I can think of is a dilemma for the main hero is repeated multiple times and this should have only come into play towards the end of the story.
Children of Blood and Bone is going to make a great movie!

Review: The Weight of Water by Sarah Crossan

The Weight of WaterThe Weight of Water by Sarah Crossan
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This is a really good read due to the great storyline. It's also an easy read but it is very emotional.
It's about a girl from Poland who moves to England, in search of her father. She meets a nice boy in school, and they try to support each other. There are a lot of issues in this book that teenagers have to dela with, it's very relatable.
It's written in a poetic style, it can help you to read more poetry and get used to reading ait.
It is a book that I would recommend for Years 7-10 and anyone who likes a really good read.
