Could you imagine being the cause of a civil war? That is exactly what Phillip is facing. How will he protect his family and himself?

[Trent Reedy] did a good job creating a very possible situation and showing the consequences in [Divided We Fall]. Although the novel is fiction with a dystopian feel it is something that could actually happen, which makes it more compelling.

Thrilling story

A jolly good murder mystery

It might be shelved under fiction for 9-12 but Robin Stevens' murder mystery series featuring the honest, clever and ever loyal Hazel Wong and her best friend the irrepressible Daisy Wells is an absolutely fantastic murder mystery series to be enjoyed by all ages.

If you're into death, blood and guts then this is your film.
It's not as bad as I just made it sound.
You MUST READ THE BOOKS then and only then can you watch the films with the correct mindset.
Beautifully thrilling.
I loved the character and I loved the story. These fiction films are persued well giving they're based on the books. ????

Thousand Splendid Suns

I fell in love with this book on the first few pages. I was attached to the characters quickly and was intrigued to hear their story. The ending did disappoint me slightly, but the rest of the book was superb. Definitely recommend even if your not a historical fiction person.

I am not a big reader of dystopia novels, science fiction or fantasy. I am unsure where this goes, but I don't care. This has to be one of my favorite books of 2018. Neal Schusterman does a great job of developing the story, but also the characters. I would highly recommend this story to others. I can't wait to read the second book in the series.
