Jack Slater, Monster Investigator by John Dougherty

This book is really good. There's a young boy who is the main character and he's called Jack. He is a monster investigator. Also, there's a monster called Bernard. He meets Jack and then there's an invasion of monsters. Later on, they meet a girl called Cherry and they get up to all sorts of adventures in an underground tunnel. Do they get caught or not? Read this fantastic book to find out more...I liked this book because it has lots of adventures in it. I would recommend it to anyone, because I think lots of people would enjoy it.

Niteracy Hour by John Dougherty

Review by Lily Mae Allen.

I have not read any books about nits until now. This book is about a nit (called Jim) that hatches on someones head when they are at school. It is an ordinary head louse, but if it feeds on someone's blood it gets really good at whatever the person was good at. My favourite part is when the nit meets another nit and gets extremely annoyed with him. I enjoyed this book because it is really weird and very funny.
 

The Wickedest Witch in the World by Kaye Umansky

The Wickedest Witch in the World is a really quick book to read. It's also very funny, so that's why lots of people would absolutely love this book. It is definitely my favourite book at the moment. I think I will buy this book with my mum and dad. I will also try to get my brothers to start reading it because I think they might really enjoy it too.

Goosebumps: Let's Get Invisible by R.L. Stine

I've read loads of Goosebumps books, however this one is one of my favourites as it is about a mirror that turns a boy called Max invisible. It sounds good but turns into a disaster, as each time he goes invisible it gets harder to become visible again! It all started on Max's birthday, when Max's dog found a hidden door in the attic, and they found the mirror that turned him invisible. Will he be invisible forever? I can't tell you, This book is great and I recommend reading it!
Score 10/10

Hagurosan by Darren Shan


Hagurosan is a amazing book written by the best selling author of The Demonata, The Saga of Darren Shan and Zom-B. If you like horror books, I would recommend this book for you.
 
The spirits have cursed people for less.
They have brought dreadfull illness upon them.
They have struck them down dead.
What will they do to Hagurosan?

 
Hagurosan is a little boy who lives in a poor village. One day he climbs up the Holy Mountain and finds a coin. He then climbs up the holy mountain every day and finds loads of coins. Hagurosan had never seen as much money in his life. He must have picked up at least five or six hundred coins. His father comes to collect him from the mountain. But it is not as easy at it seems...

If you decide to read this book, I guarantee you will love it. It is exciting and easy to read. I loved it.

10/10

Ghost Stadium by Tom Palmer

School's finished for the summer, so Lucas and his two mates decide to go camping in the old abandoned football stadium, when suddenly they are awoken by something terrible. Will Lucas make it out alive with his friends or will the evil lurking in the stadium catch them? You need to read this book to find out what will happen.

This book is so amazing you could read it one million times and not get bored. It is not scary, but it is spooky and an awesome adventure book. It is also very short and quick to read, I finished it in about 35 minutes.

I would recommend it for anyone who enjoys atmospheric and spooky stories! Will you read it? I want to know if you enjoyed it as much as I did.

Hagurosan by Darren Shan

Darren Shan's brand new book Hagurosan is amazing!

It's about a boy called Hagurosan who has to deliver a cake that his mother made to the Holy Mountain. On the way there, Hagurosan starts to eat the cake and eventually there are only crumbs left. When he arrives at the Holy Mountain he starts to pray, then as he walks towards the exit he finds a coin. He picks it up and puts it at the feet of one of the statues. Then he finds another coin, so he does the same again. And again. And again. Hagurosan is cursed! Hagurosan's father tries to take him home but he can't. Hagurosan is still there many years later and has found thousands of coins.
The book continues, but I don't want to spoil the rest for you as it is such an exciting story. I recommend this book to the people who love Darren Shan and his books.
