I've been reading the other Booked Up books. Just to see what they're like.
They're good. Here's my top five so far (I've not read the other 6 yet and I can't really put mine in the list, can I?):
1st: H.I.V.E. - I've not even finished it yet and I love it, great characters, great action, great suspense
2nd: The Garbage King - very different to H.I.V.E., but really well written. Very moving. You get into the heads of two boys from a very different culture to ours. Superb.
3rd: Kiss of Death - good story, creepy and intriguing
4th: Arctic Hero - very interesting, about a man I knew nothing about
5th: Skullduggery Pleasant - great start to the novel, but not my cup of tea as I'm not into the more fantasy style stories (I am sure the author won't mind me saying so: Richard and Judy and millions of others love it)
I'll do a definitive top 11 wen I've finished them all.
Overall I've been loving reading them - all available at your local library!
