Fans of psychological horror or thrillers might want to pick this up. For those looking for books with lesbian characters this is excellent, but I'm not sure romance would be the right word

It is good, but nothing outstanding. Its audience - homeschoolers and their parents - would find it useful...

not for the squeamish, or the easily disturbed...Nothing in the book is gratuitous, however. It is a blunt and detailed medical drama, without sugar-coating.

obtrusive bright blue hyperlinks in the middle of the detective story: that's right it is a Choose Your Own Adventure...but it uses the same hyperlinks for items external to the book it wants to you buy or look up.

This is an excellent YA or older children's book, with a gripping fast-moving plot, distinct and real characters, all with their own drives, desires, and flaws.

An intriguing mystery...a strong start, good characters and the writing flows well. The real problem is the ending, which is weak.

This is one of the best dystopian stories I have read, but it's also a spectacular single room piece and character-driven drama.

a bright, enjoyable, short children's story which younger children should love.

Unrated (DNF?) with a sense of utter bemusement. I'm not sure I ever found the story in this

Fans of cozy mystery or small town stories will love this book, and frankly so will anyone looking for something to lift the mood, a clean romance, or a comedy of errors crossed with farce.

Overall, it is a good story about growing up, ideal for teenagers and particularly girls who are into sports.

Explaining breast cancer, or any kind of cancer, to preschool children is very difficult but this book handles it exceptionally well

three absolutely wonderful short Christmas stories of hope and triumph, embedded in a double-framing structure, which is over-extended and rather dry.

Family chaos? Oh yes. A good book for teenagers? Again yes, although it would probably appeal to YA readers of any age, as the older ones can look back and laugh.

It's a five and if I gave it less I'd be lying. Who would enjoy this? Almost anyone. It is a lovely blend of snide asides, romance, action, humour, and tragedy, and brings some intriguing characters to life on the page.

Rating it as something to read for entertainment seems morbid, however readers of real-life survival stories should pick this up.
