Example of a Book Review
Whisper by Lynette Noni was such a good read because it was a mystery and also a supernatural book. I loved the way the main character’s quest was slowly revealed and once I understood the mystery, I couldn’t put down the book. The Supernatural part of the book was unique because I haven’t read anything like that before. You must also read book 2 ‘Weapon’, because it is just as good. (71 words)
