The Bother in Burmeon

Reviewer rating: 

5

Pros: 

Pacey, exciting, rip-roaring adventure for daring girls and gung-ho boys.

Cons: 

Hard to put down :)

In a toy box at Billy’s grandma’s house, there’s an old kaleidoscope. Twist it, and the pattern of colours inside shifts and rearranges, just as you’d expect.

Pros: 

An absolute joy to read

Cons: 

Scandalously neglected in the UK market

The way I discover new books has, up until now, been by random accidents.  Reading a review or an interview, a blog post, “Customers who bought this also bought…” on Amazon, e.t.c.  I have rarely handled my choice of reading material before it’s mine, since the majority of my book browsing and buying is done online.  This situation has now changed since I recently became a Bookseller; a very exhausted, early rising, sore feeted, but happy Bookseller.
