|title=The Secret Mirror (Emily Feather)
|author=Holly Webb
|rating=3
|genre=Confident Readers
|summary=It was hard enough for Emily to cope with the news that she was adopted. She had missed all of the signs, but now everything seemed painfully obvious. She didn’t resemble her sisters and brother, with their slender, delicate features. 'They belonged together.' It was clear that Emily was different from the rest of her family, but the real shock was when she realised ''how'' different she was. The Feather family were not even human. They were high-ranking fairies and their home served as a gateway between the human and fairy realms.

|summary=So we have had Jane Austen [[Pride and Prejudice and Zombies by Jane Austen and Seth Grahame-Smith|meet zombies]], and now something perhaps even more reprehensible – social realism. This is a world where people slip up in hogshit, where rain pisses it down, and if the weekly routine washday is bad, you should try it when five Bennet daughters have their coinciding periods. Sarah is in the middle of all this, trying to do her share of the housework with one hand at times, lest pus from her blisters get on the linen, or her callouses crack open. But why can she not get her feelings about James, the new mysterious footman fresh from who-knows-where, straight in her head, and why is her heart turned by the mulatto servant of the Bingleys up at Netherfield?

|title=Arthur Quinn and Hell's Keeper (The Father of Lies Chronicles)
|author=Alan Early
|rating=5
|genre=Confident Readers
|summary=It’s only been a week since Arthur Quinn returned to his home in Kerry. After defeating the World Serpent, after battling the Fenris Wolf and losing an eye in his efforts, you’d think he’d be glad of the peace, quiet and normality of his old home. But within the week that unsettled feeling is back. The pendant that protects Arthur from the Father of Lies is glowing bright green and the war hammer he found under the streets of Dublin is radiating an insistent warmth as if preparing, once again, for battle. The dreams have returned; dreams of an ancient past in Asgard, dreams warning of terrible events to come. And now, it’s not just Arthur having those dreams. It seems the entire world is seeing the same thing. Loki is on the move.
