The Grantchester Mysteries . Sidney Chambers And The Shadow Of Death by James Runcie . Review
This was such a fun story set in a small village primarily and centred around clergyman Canon Sydney Chambers . Sydney is a likeable man , young , social and always finding himself in the centre of trouble , which makes for great reading! The story feels like a lot of short stories combined to make one large story about Sydney and his friends and it takes place in London and the countryside . There is thievery, murder, deception , and all sorts of red herrings ! This was a fantastic read and I can't wait to read more in this series ! If you enjoy a satisfying mystery series like those of M.C Beaton then this is just the book for you.

Release by Patrick Ness. Review
The story begins after a murder has happened . Adam is the main character , he is young and in love and has mixed emotions about that and a family that might not agree with his choice of love interest . We also see the story from the side of the ghost of Katherine( murdered girl) , this might sound confusing but it works perfectly in giving us more information about what happened and the circumstances around it .
I liked Adam , his struggles with his family were heartbreaking , but I loved his gumption for admitting who he was so that he could live his life fully and truthfully even though he was taking the risk of losing those he loves most . This is a must read for all Patrick Ness fans . This is aimed more for the slightly older reader 16+ .

After The Fire by Will Hill . Review
The story begins in a security facility after a serious incident has occurred . The main character is called Moonbeam and she appears to be at the centre of what happened but we soon learn there was a huge number of people involved because Moonbeam was part of a dangerous cult. The story was disturbing on many levels , the control over these people , the brainwashing and restrictions and flat out abuse , it was all deeply ingrained and horrifying . Father John was a despicable character and his behaviour was very unsettling so he made an excellent bad guy!
It's quite a big book and I flew through it, the plot was exceptionally good and I could not put it down once I started it and as the plot pace really picked up speed as we went I had to stay up late to find out what had happened leading up to the climax of the story. It was awesome ! If you are a fan of this author you won't be disappointed if you are new to his writing you are in for a treat!

Encounters by Jason Wallace. Review.
The story is set in 1994 in Zimbabwe where a huge group of children tell the same story about a space ship arriving outside their school at break-time . The story is told through the eyes of some of these children and the more you read the more you are convinced these children were telling the truth and it seemed to be a very bad omen. The characters are interesting and the plot was original , do we only believe what our eyes see, or do we only believe what we know is possible . The story is thought provoking and a must read for all fans of UFO'S and unusual things happening to ordinary people .
