BEFORE NIGHT FALLS

I have just finished reading a book called ' Before Night Falls'. The book was part of the quick read collection and was written by Keith Gray. The book had an adventure and thriller storylineand it really was a fantastic book to read.

The book had text that was easy to read and understand. I was hooked from the very first page. I couldn't wait to find out what was going to happen next. I was unable to put the book down it really was fantastic.

The book was about Andy. Andy wanted to spend some time with his girlfriend Lucy. Andy set off on a camping trip with Lucy and two friends. Andy soon realised that things were not going to go according to plan. Apart from it being wet and cold they were all lost on the Yorkshire Moors. As the night began to fall Lucy wandered off on her own and never returned. Andy woke up next morning to the sounds of screams coming from Lucy's friend Megan. Andy, Glen and Megan set off looking for Lucy. They soon found her but she had strange marks on her neck. With their camping trip becoming more like a nightmare Andy decided to head home carrying Lucy on a stretcher, which they had mad from the tent poles. Was Lucy bitten by a vampire or was there another explanationto the strange marks on Lucy's neck?

I give this book a rating of five it was a fantastic story to read and i would recommend it to anyone. Happy reading i think you'll love it.

The Book Boy

I have just finished reading a book called ' The Book Boy'. The book was part of the quick read collection and was written by Joanna Trollope. The book had a family relationship story line and was absoloutely fantastic.

The book had text that was easy to read and the language was easy to understand. The storyline kept you hooked, you were never sure what was going to happen next. I was unable to put the book down.

The book was all about Alice. Alice thought that she ought to be happy, she had a fantastic husband, two teenage children and a big fancy house. Alice also had a secret that she had kept hidden from her family. Alice had a part time job at the local shop but she was unable to read. As the story goes on vyou learn more about the journey that Alice takes in her bid to learn to read. Alice enlisted the help of a very strange companion to help her. Alice asked Scott who was a friend of her teenage son. Scott was a strange companion because neither Alice or her husband approved of the friendship which Scott had with their son. While Alice was learning to read she was accused of having an affair by her husband Ed. Did Alice ever get a happy ending and did Alice ever learn to read? I suggest that you read this book, it really is a great story.

I would give this story a star rating of five it was a fantastic story that had a common issue as the main storyline. The story just proves that even adults can learn to read. This is a story that i would recommend to anyone.
