Hi Karen have you got any of these in? Are they any good? We are always looking for new books for our teenage readers!
ReplyDeleteBirmingham Libraries has them in stock. I've ordered a couple of the ones that aren't already on my tbr! My Sister Lives on the Mantelpiece has won several awards/nominations and some of my reading group have tackled it (they are 10-12) and have enjoyed it. Divergent is supposed to be really good too.
