Book reviews by Jasmine Lord-D’Souza

After Life by Gayle Forman

After Life by Gayle Forman

After Life is a story capturing a poignant moment in time in the lives of a grieving family and those connected to them. It is an enthralling tale that keeps you guessing until almost the very last page.
So Over This by David Fenne

So Over This by David Fenne

So Over This is a fantastic combination of real-life relationships and political issues, blended with imaginative preterhuman powers and the social dilemmas that accompany them.
Handle With Care by Louisa Reid

Handle With Care by Louisa Reid

Handle With Care begins right in the middle of the action, and the fast pace continues until the final page. Opening with a dramatic and unexpected birth in a history classroom, the mysteries surrounding the situation are gradually revealed.
The Dark Within Us by Jess Popplewell

The Dark Within Us by Jess Popplewell

The Dark Within Us is gripping and undoubtedly well-planned and researched. It provides a refreshing addition to the large collection of supernatural adventure/ romances available to young people.
