Where Rainbows End by Cecilia Ahern

This book is about Rosie Dunne, a girl brought up in Dublin, and her best friend, Alex Stewart. The story is told through letters, notes, text messages, emails and instant messages. Rosie and Alex are best friends and have been all their life, until Alex and his family move to Boston. The book guides you through their relationship that is forever changing due to distance. However there is one question that remains throughout the book, were they meant to be more than friends?
The book is filled with bursts of humour, tragedy and romance. With turns in the story all the way through the book, you won’t want to put it down! I would recommend this book for older readers. I think it is an amazing book and is one of my favourites.

Divergent by Veronica Roth

The book is about a girl who feels she doesn't quite fit in and decides she wants a new life and ends up fighting the system. She also finds her true love.
It was quite well written. I liked the topics it covered and it made me think about our own society. I have also really gotten to love the characters.

Star rating *****  



Insurgent by Veronica Roth

It's the second book in the Divergent series. The book is about a girl called Tris who realizes her society is corrupt and war starts to break out. Even though she is not on the Erudite side, she still tries to find a way to get an important file that reveals the history of the faction system. I liked the book but I really long for hearing her thoughts more and I don't really get to do that.

Six Steps to a Girl by Sophie McKenzie


Feel like some romance this week? Why not try "Six Steps to a Girl"?  
This book is romantic and a bit of an action book. It is aimed at young teenagers -  probably most likely girls. It is about a young man named Luke who firsts spots Eve at his dad’s funeral. He thinks she is beautiful and is the only distraction from his family issues due to his dad’s death. The only thing is that is stopping him is that she has a boyfriend. Luke doesn’t give up though. He meets another young man named Ryan at a party. Ryan tells Luke how to get to Eve (the girl he saw at his dad’s funeral). It takes Luke time but he soon gets through to Eve. They become closer and closer friends but when Luke meets Eve’s boyfriend it ends up with Luke in hospital. He starts to wonder if it’s worth it, but in the end it is...
I just couldn't put this book down - after the first page you get hooked. It’s always left on a cliff hanger, leaving you unaware of what will happen next. It’s a wonderful story and I think any teenager would love this book.
