Life Slightly by Nigel Jay Cooper

By Emma Fitzgerald -
Thank you @Randomttours and @nijay for letting me part of this tour and reviewing this book. I did enjoy reading Life slightly and it was sad but it was really good read . I realky wanted to know who Gavin ends up with. When i read the ending it did leave you thinking who met him in the pub and i reslly hope its who i think it is snd who Gavin deseves to be with. I felt sorry for Jackie and Gavin but if i am hinest i was mire intrested in reading and founding out about Gavinstory. He was my favourite character. It was really nice to see both characters develop through the book. This is coming of age story with some gripping storylines and real life issues that Nigel tackles really well His writting is gripping and it is beaufully written. I will definatly read more of Nigel Jay cooper 5 stars. ABOUT THE AUTHOR: Author, writer, father, runner. Not always in that order.

Thank you @strangelymagic and @neemtreepress for letting me review this book. War of the wind is 220 pages snd is you g adukt fiction. I really enjoyed reading this book and felt like ot held my attention to the end. I really like the characters my favourite where Max, Beanie and Erin. I love the plot with the evil Doctor Asheood and the wind turbines. It was lovely to see Max develop and start to accept his disabiliny and for Max to have the strengh to tell his dad how he felt about him not communicate with him. My heart did go out to dad ehen i found out why. It did make me sad in places but its great read and gripped me. I slso liked hid uncle and twister. I feel young adults will love this story its diffent and its grest suspence.

Thank you @Dreamheadz . @KellyALacey and @lovebookstours for letting me be part of this tour and reviewing this book. The Fish King and the Two Wise Ghosts is a children's book that is 58 pages long. This is a cute children's book about the Fish King who feels lonely and wants to find a family he eventually finds Lisa but he has to introduce them to the Ghosts. The illustrations are good and children will like them and they work well with the writing. There is good rhyming throughout the book which children will like.

The Pawnshop of Stolen Dreams is for young adults between 9-13 years, which will keep them entertained till the end. The story is dark and well-written. The illustrations are amazing and great fantasy. The story is at a great pace and love adventure running through the book 5 stars. Blurb In a strange little village called Witchetty Hollow, eleven-year-old Florizel is the first to run into the curious visitors who've come to open a brand new Daydream Delicatessen and sack-baby factory. At first, it seems the daydream confection and cheap sack children are the best things that could have happened to the poor folk of the Hollow - after all, who has the money to rent their child from Storkhouse Services these days? But after a few weeks, Florizel starts to notice something odd happening ...
