#BookReview ‘The Shelf’ by Helly Acton . ‘OM

#BookReview ‘The Shelf’ by Helly Acton
.
‘OMG, The Shelf is one of the funniest books I have ever read. Set in the world of reality TV, we get to see how the contestants on these shows truly feel about their life and the show.
.
I admit to hating some reality TV but having seeing snippets of Big Brother over the years it definitely had a Big Brother vibe to ‘The Shelf’, with a large house, a back yard with pool and bar, and tasks along the way.
.
Talking of the tasks, talk about trying to make women behave as if they were in some kind of 1950s marriage with challenges such as to throw the perfect tea-party and then they were marked on their choice of food, their manners, behaviours, even their outfit. Feminists beware this book will have you seething!’

#BookReview ‘Return to Roar’ by Jenny McLachla

#BookReview ‘Return to Roar’ by Jenny McLachlan.
.
‘Return to Roar is another action-packed adventure into the children’s fantasy land that they created. Everything that is featured in Roar was made invented by the twin’s imagination, including ‘The End’ the place where they discarded all the items they decided they didn’t want or didn’t fit in the main section.
.
The book opens strongly and it isn’t long, just a few chapters until we are back in the thick of the action. Arthur is excited to see his wizard friend Win and Rose is looking forward to seeing her best mermaid friend Mitch, but will she have returned from her mission in book one?
.
The book moves along at a fast pace and the chapters are quite short giving the book and even quicker feel, which then makes everything super exciting. Roar is both a wonderful and scary place, where they can have lots of fun but also be accosted by an octopus! The twins were obviously very inventive in their creation and role play.’

#Review ‘My Chronicle Book Box’
.
Today on the blog I am reviewing ‘My Chronicles Book Box‘, a book subscription service located in the UK, though they ship internationally. The company has a range of different book subscriptions for you to choose from, as well as special celebration boxes and signed first edition books too. I received their July, Crime & Mystery 1 Book Subscription Box for free in exchange for a fair and honest review.
.
I have tried two book boxes earlier this year, different companies, but whilst I loved the excitement of getting the box, the book, and the goodies. My excitement soon wore off when I realised that the items that were included were all really for teenagers.
.
At 42 I did not need for some of the younger items. So I was so happy to see that the items that you get with this box subscription were suitable for my age. Plus, it was £20 cheaper too – what a winner!

#BookReview ‘The Curator’ by M. W. Craven.
.
The Curator is one of the best thrillers I have ever read and in my opinion the best yet in the Washington Poe series. It is gripping, suspenseful, and certainly plays with your mind. It makes you think and there is most certainly a psychological element running the whole way through.
.
I love the way Poe and Tilly work together. Their banter is pure genius and realistic too. It is with this banter that you can find some light relief from this wicked case that takes Poe to new depths. Put it this way you should know you are up against something sinister when a senior pathologist is warning you to be careful and not be a hero.
.
Once I started reading this book I didn’t want to put it down. The pace was spot on, the chapters short and snappy and the mind games just perfect. I also love the location, as it is easy to visualise having been to Cumbria many times.

#BookReview ‘Intruders’ by E.C. Scullion.
.
‘Intruders is a superb book that had me engrossed from the very first page. The book is 3/4 the build-up to breaking into the safe and 1/4 what happens afterward. The team members are all unique and had clashing personalities. Anil for a safe-cracker was quite quiet and reserved. He was doing this one last job for his family and a need to know what was happening at every stage.
.
The book flowed well and the pace felt fast throughout. I was a little disappointed at the scene with the safe, I wanted more drama, but apart from that, it was entertaining and thrilling the whole way through.
.
This is a fabulous heist thriller that will keep you on your toes. It will have you wanting to know what is in the safe and trying to work out if the team makes it out of Uruguay alive and back to their normal lives.’

#BookReview ‘Crater Lake’ by Jennifer Killick.

#BookReview ‘Crater Lake’ by Jennifer Killick.
.
‘Crater Lake is an exciting sci-fi, mildly scary children’s book. From the beginning, the reader is told that when the pupils fall asleep they turn into bug-eyed victims of some alien race that is in Crater Lake.
.
The plot is full-on and the friends’ bravery and camaraderie really shows, even if there are a few tiffs along their journey. There is a lot of humour too which will give the reader a giggle now and again.
.
This is an amazing middle-grade novel that will have children glued to the pages wanting to follow all the action and find out how Lance and his friends can get the situation under control. Reminded me a little of the movie Toy Soldiers, where a group of kids has to save the rest of the pupils from the baddies – though they are saving them from aliens not terrorists in this book.’

#BookReview ‘The Girl with Two Dads’ by Mel El

#BookReview ‘The Girl with Two Dads’ by Mel Elliott.
.
‘The Girl with Two Dads is a lovely book about different family dynamics and an introduction for children to learn that not every family has the same setup. I like the way the story has been written from Pearl’s point of view of her new friend’s family.

The full-page colourful illustrations are beautiful and are fun to look at. They really capture the heart of the story.
.
The Girl with Two Dads would be the perfect book to show young children that in this world families come in all shapes and sizes.’

#BookReview ‘Prinz David’s Castle’ by Daniel

#BookReview ‘Prinz David’s Castle’ by Daniel Richard Smith.
.

The author and his wife raised two disabled sons and probably as a result of this he has written with real passion for his subject. I believe that Prinz David’s Castle is his first novel and he has taken the opportunity to pack it full with stories of courage, determination, acceptance and sheer evil. My emotions were pulled in all directions. He writes in an easy style and the changes of setting keep you hooked. There are a number of co-incidental events which helps to gel the various plots.
.
Most of the book’s locations are real and Smith’s descriptions of life at the relevant times appear authentic. His characters include four real persons: Karl Brandt, Phillip Bouhler, Rudolf Lonauer and Georg Renno. All the characters, real and fictional, have depth and he uses them to show how personal choices at the time were affected by pressures from all sides. Horrendous as the programme was, failure to comply with instructions was extremely brave and generally very costly.’
