|title=Diamonds and Daggers - The Marsh Street Mysteries

|rating=4.5

|genre=Confident Readers

|summary=Group of pre-teens get together to solve a mystery? Been there, done that. But don't be fooled. This book stands out from the crowd, even though it has to be said that many of those detective stories are really very good, for the way it incorporates utterly contemporary issues like economic migration, celebrity and prejudice, while remaining both funny and thrilling.

|summary=Fans of thrillers will be the first to admit that character development is not always the first priority in their favourite books. In fact, in some series heroes change less than ''The Simpsons'', even after dozens of adventures. So, finding a story which has heart-pounding drama, well-drawn characters and even – believe it or not – a few scenes which would melt the hardest heart makes this excellent series a must-read.

~~|title=Rugby Academy: Surface to Air~~

~~|rating=5~~

~~|genre=Dyslexia Friendly~~

|summary=We first met Rory in [[Rugby Academy: Combat Zone by Tom Palmer|Combat Zone]] when circumstances forced him to go to Broadlands Boarding School when both his parents were posted abroad by the RAF. It wasn't his choice - I mean they played ''rugby'' rather than his beloved football - but it wasn't long before he discovered that not only did he enjoy rugby, he was rather good at it. It was also something of a relief to be at a school where there were other boys in a similar situation to himself. By the time that we meet Rory again time has moved on and he's on his way to Toulon to play in an international schools rugby tournament.
