Book Reviews by Lynn

Review 6******This is a fantastic children's/YA book! Set in England, it combines a mixture of fantasy and adventure that had me hooked from the first page!Alice is a fantastic character. Alice is 13 years old and is usually an average student, but she is starting to get these strange urges to eat fruit and sugary foods, and finds herself passing her school tests with ease. Confused and frightened, Alice goes through an amazing metamorphosis, and begins an adventure of a life time.I fell in love with this book, as I have a bit of a sweet tooth myself! This is a fantastic story that completely captured my imagination.There is a fantastic cast of characters in this book; Alice's best friend, Sarah is quite witty and I would love to have her as my friend. The Finwips (related to fairy's), are a fascinating lot and I'm looking forward to getting to know them a bit better. This book takes you on a magical adventure that makes you want more!Nicola Palmer has written a fantastic YA children's book that is full of humour and danger. I'm looking forward to reading more of this series. I highly recommend this book to children (+11) and adults alike, as it is highly entertaining and fun! - Lynn Worton (WaAR)
