Fantastic young-adult adventure
In this book you follow Torak, a young boy, who develops an incredible relationship with a wolf pup. Together they go on an amazing adventure. Full of twists and turns. The author is extremely good at descriptive writing, as you read this you can really picture the scenes. This took me 2 days to read, that's how good it is.

Feel good book
This book is such a feel good book and is probably very relatable for a lot of young people, it shows how its okay to be different and that just because you stand out from a crowd doesn't mean you can't do the things that everyone else is doing. Dumplin' is a well written, relaxing and easy read for any young adult

3.5/5<br/><br/>Thanks to Dean Street Press for rereleasing this lovely book. E.H.Young writes so beautifully, I wish I had read her children's books when I was young. This #bookreview is for one of her adult fiction books. http://tcl-bookreviews.com/2020/08/03/wholly-moley/

Short Story of a young Jack Reacher
This is a Jack Reacher Short Story which gives us a look at 13 year old Reacher. He is very similar to adult Reacher, thoughtfully efficient fighter with an uncanny logic to solve mysteries.
The first part of this gives us some nice family background but the end suddenly has Jack solving mysteries super quick. It needed to be a tad longer and let the mysteries develop as it just came across as rather a rapid jump of logic for a 13 year old that adults didn’t get near. I would of been happy just to get a bit more picture of a young Reacher without having the pretty much fully formed characteristics of the adult on show.
All in all an OK quick story; I listened to the audiobook which was around 1 hour and aside from the voice of his Father was well narrated by Kerry Shale. Probably one for just existing Reacher fans.

I got into these by accident. I had read the Twilight series and was on a Vampire kick and I stumbled upon these. There more aimed towards the young adult/early 20's reader but definately a good book to read if you're looking for more vampire! :) I loved them!
