This is a great book for anyone who likes a mixture of gratuitous amount of blood and gore, the occasional love scene and twists and turns in the tale.

Let’s Get Lost, Author: Sarra Manning

9:50am Friday 15th February 2008

Book: Let's Get Lost Author: Sarra Manning In my words this book means a lot to me as it was one of the first books I ever read and could relate to, I find it hard to find a teen novel that does that so well. When I first picked up the book the cover seemed eye catching and quite sophisticated. Reading the book didn't take me long at all, as I never put it down! It seemed like a life so different to an average teenagers but with the same problems.' While reading this book I thought Sarra (the author) had intended to create a classic teen life-style with a twist. In the story the main character Isabelle is left motherless after a tragic accident that you first know little about.

The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen

Alan Moore is a creative genius. Yes, he does the superhero thing with Watchmen and his DC and Marvel forays, but this is a whole new spin on it! This graphic novel will make you want to re-read all those classics gathering dust on your shelves, because all of the major characters are torn from Victorian masterpieces.
