Well, I don't know if I am Twilight's oldest fan, but I am 50 in 2 days time, and I stumbled on this book whilst trying to find interesting new reads for my daughter (who hasn't had a look in yet). I think it is wonderful. Plot aside, it draws me in and the tension is amazing. The prose does have a hint of Jane Austen about it and Edward is like an old fashioned romantic hero. A very clever idea - fine romantic literature for the 21st century. I wish it had been around when I was 14 - I would have devoured it! I'm ready for the next books. Girls - keep them away from your Mums!

No real point in going into depth over this one. The motivations are stupid, the characters stagnant (with one blazing exception - more on that in a minute.) Bella-as-everygirl-1st-person-narrator worked in the first book, when it was all about discovery. Now that the jig is up, though, she comes across as boring, petulant and self-obsessed, and only slightly outdistanced in those stakes by the hallowed Edward. The reason I gave it as high a rating as I did is a.) it's still compulsive reading, even if it is literary junk-food and b.) Jacob Black.
Ah, Jacob Black. A very wise (and well-known) author once told me that if a minor character starts speaking to you, you should do a U-turn and go with it. I wish Meyer had done that here. I ... Read More: >>More Details |

The only redeeming feature of this book - which could have lost 200 pages of repetitive whining to no detriment, if not improvement - is the fact that Bella finally decides that she loves Jacob. Even if there is a qualifying 'too' in the mix. I'm dubiously giving #4 a bash, since in a fit of enthusiasm after 'Twilight' I bought them all, but I just don't think Meyer has the authorial skills to convince me that an animated marble statue is really worth all of this angst.
Honestly: am I the only one out there who finds Edward completely tedious? Not to mention self-obsessed, controlling and condescending. Ah well, maybe #4 will surprise me... >>More Details |

This book makes a mockery of the whole Twilight series. The first book in the series was brilliant, the second okay, the third better than okay, but this is plain rubbish. The diologue is rubbish, the story is boring and dull and what I hate most *Warning spoiler* is how the character of Jacob imprints on Bella's daughter. It makes his love for Bella a waste of time and this was part of the reason the Twilight saga was so good. The story would have gone a bit better if he had imprinted on someone like Leah. I also found Bella annoying in this book, and sometimes found myself wanting to tell her to shut up.
Overall, a horrible read and I was so happy when I finished it. If you have only read the first three books, leave it at that as if you read this ... Read More: >>More Details |

Jacqueline Wilson's stories deal with some very sensitive topics and they're fun to read, too, which is why I read 'Cookie' within a few days of its publication. As a teacher, I was hoping to use it as the basis for a classroom discussion with a group of Year 6s on some of the issues that the book brings up.
In the end I couldn't use it. The book seems to be aimed at much younger children, and the story doesn't fit together properly. When Beauty Cookson's mum realises that Beauty is being bullied over her appearance by her classmates, as well as by her vicious dad, she decides that she will teach Beauty how to bake cookies so that she can share them at school and subtly persuade the bullies to give her a new nickname - Cookie instead of Ugly. This just ... Read More: >>More Details |

Please dont let him write another. Great Britain has the worlds greatest authors.
Anthony Horowitz; Alex Rider, Jason Steed, Ravens Gate, Necropolis. Joe Craig: Jimmy Coates. Robert Muchamore: Cherub. All three authors have proved themselves as being the best teen spy writers not only in the country but the world. Joe Craig who brought us Jimmy Coates is also the couson of James Bond Actor Daniel Crag. Yet we have comedian Charlie Higson and part time author writing the young adventures of the great fictional character in the world. By Royal Command is slows. and has James out of character, fleeing the country. The chapters are slow and boring in places. When the wolrd is reading books by Anthony Horowitz and Stephenie ...

I couldn't wait to get my hands on this one, but when i did... i wasn't satisfied.
This book isn't bad at all, and if you are a neil-fan, by all means read it. But, this book just wasn't as inventive, as surprising, touching or original. the concept is great... the excecution.. not that great. There is nothing new, and i felt that i'd seen all the tricks before. (Strangely, the book read as a script. i could just see the film sequences in my head.) Also having read M is for Magic, i was already familiar with a great deal of the story. i almost skipped that part, but forced myself to read it again. I sometimes thought: this is a real children's book, don't be so critical, but then characters such as victor hugo and the 66th president of U.S.A. are introduced, ... Read More: >>More Details |

I bought this for my 8 year old daughter on the basis of the reviews on Amazon. I was not disappointed! It really is easy to do (even if you're not that creative yourself!). Use the stencils to create catwalk sensations - I bought it a week ago and have already sent for the refill pack as we have run out of hangers to display our creations. Loads of fantastic paper, sequins, beads, ribbon and glue (but only 20 hangers). My daughter absolutely loves it and can do it herself without any help - will definitely be buying more for presents for friends etc. Without a doubt this is fantastic value for money and I would recommend it to anyone who enjoys craft activities (adults and children). You will not be disappointed!
