#brilliant for young and old! (2008-11-06) brilliant for young and old! I love this annual, but anyone who loves Top Gear would! its brilliant and full of information, quizzes, pictures! My favourite challange was the polar challange and this has lots of info on it! great present for young car enthusiasts or any fan!

#nice quite a young read really (2008-10-13) I bought this for my 14 year old niece, who LOVES Top Gear, and I m a bit disappointed. The book s very colourful, but it s full of word searches and `mazes , so really is far too young for anyone over the age of 8 or 9. I ve just seen the Big Book of Top Gear, which is really funny, and I m going to get that for her instead.

#A Must Have For Young Fans Of The Show (2008-10-10) This book is fantastic! My son watches Top Gear with me all the time and when he saw the book advertised on amazon, he begged me to buy it for him and he certainly wasn t disappointed. It is packed with information and fun things to do. It will keep him amused for hours. There aren t really any books for children with an interest in cars, so this was a great buy and fantastic value

#Alien alert! (2008-11-30) My little boy got given this book for CHristmas last year and loves it so much that I could probably quote it all the way through, I ve read it so often. Okay, there s not a strong story but what do you expect for a cartoon book for pre-schoolers? The rhymes are cute and the pictures are great - we love it, and so do all the kids at nursery!

#Hilarious and silly. (2008-11-30) This book is very funny. My five year old boy loved reading the story and looking at all the illustrations of the different underpants. A few days after reading the book I told him some pants were missing from the washing, to which he replied Mummy it s only a story not real! This book is great fun and I would recommend it to children young and old.

#Brilliant! (2008-11-24) My 6 year old won this in a raffle the other week, and she read it to me last night for the first time. Absolutely brilliant - I actually laughed a few times. Excellent book - and while my daughter is a bit older than the target audience, she loves it as well. A very very good book. Rivals Room on the Broom as a long-standing favourite!

#Very funny and entertaining childrens book (2008-11-24) My 3YO loves this book, and always has to check his underpants for aliens! Now, we re crying out for a Sharks love Socks sequel :-)

#No storyline or substance (2008-11-11) I bought this purely based on the strong reviews here. Thought it would be an amusing book for my 3 year old niece. Unfortunately I can t agree with the positive ratings at all - there is no storyline and so little content, it was over before it really started! I agree the illustrations are quite cute so a small toddler might enjoy looking at the pictures but I think you would have to make up your own story to make it funny or interesting. Even the rhyming phrases are quite weak. I also bought another book called Room on the Broom whic...

#Disappointing (2008-12-04) Meyer s idea of a teenage girl falling for the ideal teenage boy is faltered by one thing : the standard of writing. I have to say, I was gripped by the twists and turns of the plot and remained completely engrossed as the majority of readers found. However, I felt as though the reader had no one to identify with in the novel as the situation was wholly too perfect to be taken seriously. Overall, a fantastic read I would say for 13-15 age range, older readers will passively enjoy it but find that it is more fairy tale than real life.

#Twilight. (2008-12-02) Bella Moves to froks to live with her dad charlie, she falls in love with somone she is not supposed to. . . This book is amazing, in my opinion even better then the harry potter ones and that is saying something. i would recomend this book to anyone reading this review and urge them to buy it and the rest in the saga!

#Jane Austen meets the Addams family (2008-12-01) Well, I don t know if I am Twilight s oldest fan, but I am 50 in 2 days time, and I stumbled on this book whilst trying to find interesting new reads for my daughter (who hasn t had a look in yet). I think it is wonderful. Plot aside, it draws me in and the tension is amazing. The prose does have a hint of Jane Austen about it and Edward is like an old fashioned romantic hero. A very clever idea - fine romantic literature for the 21st century. I wish it had been around when I was 14 - I would have devoured it! I m ready for the next...

#Surprisingly good (2008-11-30) Having seen a lot of rather negative reviews around, I was understandably a little uncertain when starting this book. I had been dithering over whether to get it for months, stuck between reviews singing its praises and others damning it to the depths of hell. However, I am glad to say I was not disappointed. Whilst the book does, admittedly, have a few flaws, the characters and the plotline drew me in, and I ended up re-reading it the day after I d finished it. It certainly overturned all my rather negative expectations. That said, I wouldn t say it w...

#I Worship this book!!!! (2008-11-30) First of all let me say one thing-BEST BOOK EVER WRITTEN. it caught everything a book should. page after page it gave me a warm fuzzy feeling inside and at night i dream about them and in my mind wondering what happens next!Heart gripping novel-pre-pare to eat you heart out. After you ve read the book i am almost definite you will become obessed & drooling over edwar cullen just like the rest of us!Brillian read-recomenned for ALL ages!

#Decent-ish. (2008-11-30) No real point in going into depth over this one. The motivations are stupid, the characters stagnant (with one blazing exception - more on that in a minute. ) Bella-as-everygirl-1st-person-narrator worked in the first book, when it was all about discovery. Now that the jig is up, though, she comes across as boring, petulant and self-obsessed, and only slightly outdistanced in those stakes by the hallowed Edward. The reason I gave it as high a rating as I did is a. ) it s still compulsive reading, even if it is literary junk-food and b. ) Jacob Black. Ah, J...

#Teenage Bites, Werewolves and Romance (2008-11-27) The second novel in this imaginative reworking of the vampire fable set amongst the woods of Washington State. Unllike its predecessor, this novel moves away from the pressures of fitting in to high school and explores the response to rejected loves and the breakup of passionate relationships. We see the world through the eyes of Bella Swann, a girl who has lost the love of her life and will risk her own to recover what she has lost. The book explores movingly her feelings of suicicidal desperation and rejection and show how she rea...

#Old Theme With New Energy and Twists (2008-11-26) Reality takes some strange bends around the small rural town near the ocean where Bella, an eighteen year old senior in high school, lives with her father, Charlie, a sheriff. Bella finds herself caught between the world of vampires and a significant other among them and a world of Indian legends come to life. The conflicts and drama do create many moments of frightful suspense, and teenage love takes new twists. Bella narrates the story and much of the book is devoted in quite an effective fashion to her emotional responses to even...

#Disappointed (2008-11-22) When I read Twilight, I loved it so much, I was really excited about readig the sequel. But when I did manage to read it, this book, I was really disappointed. I found most of it quite dull and as I read more of it, it got worse. Sorry, but this book is lucky I gave it two stars.

#Book Two of the Twilight Series (2008-11-11) Twilight left us knowing that Edward and Bella were together and in love, and all that malarky. New Moon starts off with more of the same. But as their relationship deepens, and they begin to consider their future together, things start to fall apart. They realise that things between them will never be simple. They have more than just themselves to think about. Things start to kick off when Edward and the rest of the Cullens leave Forks, rendering Bella completely heartbroken. Having told her he no longer wants to be with her, he disa...

#Could have been worse... (2008-11-30) The only redeeming feature of this book - which could have lost 200 pages of repetitive whining to no detriment, if not improvement - is the fact that Bella finally decides that she loves Jacob. Even if there is a qualifying too in the mix. I m dubiously giving #4 a bash, since in a fit of enthusiasm after Twilight I bought them all, but I just don t think Meyer has the authorial skills to convince me that an animated marble statue is really worth all of this angst. Honestly: am I the only one out there who finds Edward completely tedious? ...

#Undead or hairy, what s a girl to do? (2008-11-27) Ok so if you re looking at buying Eclipse, there s not much chance you don t know all about the Twilight Saga. There s no need to convince you! If you enjoyed Twilight and New Moon, you re going to want this one. Out of all of the books, this one has to be my favourite. This was the book that took me from vehemently Team Edward squealy fangirl-arama into the Oh, Jacob s actually really nice and perfect for Bella confusion. And i cant be the only one. (Ok so i was still Team Edward after reading Eclipse, but it makes you stop and ...

#Better (2008-11-22) My favourite so far in the whole series is Twilight, and this definately comes second. New Moon was quite dull, but this book sort of made up for that. It was a bit dull in parts and quite disturbing in others, but it isn t that bad for the series.

#My favourite of the saga so far... (2008-11-11) Eclipse is my favourite of the three so far. It has the most action, and the most struggle. Bella is still being stalked by a deadly vampire intent on revenge, and there are many people wanting to protect her. All of the Cullens, and the werewolf pack over at La Push. Most people would be flattered and relieved by this, but not Bella. She cares about these people so much that she is terrified of them getting hurt, especially on her account. But it doesn t seem to stop any of them. Edward loves Bella dearly and would rather die than...

#A third one?? Ahhh when will the torture end!! (2008-11-11) This book seemed to have plot unlike the other two which made it a lot better. However, it did take forever for the characters to work out that they had to collaborate with the werewolves and it was pretty obvious that they d have to do it at some point. What was confusing about this book (and New Moon) was whether or not Bella was in love with Jacob. It turns out that she does fall for him but that just made it more confusing and unnecessary for the plot. Also, Edward was the most annyoing and overprotective idiot in th...
