Mini Review Monday (2)


Mini Review Monday is a newish feature I've started to share my thoughts of books I've read that I don't have time to do a full review on.  These are mostly books that are out of my own collection.  This is not exactly a weekly feature but will pop up here and there.
Title:  Blink and Caution by Tim Wynne - Jones
Genre: Young Adult
Publish Date:  8th March 2011
Pages:  345pages

I was stunned when I first picked this book up as Blink's POV is told in second person unlike Caution's who's in third person. It was odd but a fantastic mix and I felt the book couldn't have been done justice if it is told in anything but these two POV's!

The story follows both Blink and Caution in their own little worlds, street kids.. and the steps they take that end up with them crossing paths.  This was a great read!


Title:  Blood on the Snow by Pamela Lamb
Genre: Crime/Mystery 
Publish Date:  1st June 2009
Pages:  184 pages

It's so awesome to know that a local Author has written this!  I loved this from start to finish.  From the first line of Chapter one: "Who the F*&# are you?" I was hooked.  Zoe was one of those characters you can't help but warm up to and when it looks like the crash wasn't an accident I couldn't help but cheer her on in finding more and more clues.  I honestly didn't see who the culprit was until just a few chapters before it was revealed so it was good that the story kept me guessing too.  

A gripping read that I recommend to others to read.
