Harry Potter by J.K.Rowling


Wait, did i read the title right? Yes, you did. After watching Harry Potter 6 i thought to myself "i should read the last two Harry Potters again".Why did i think this? I'm not even sure myself, maybe is was the luring of the 1214 pages of J.K.Rowling rambling or possibly because i wanted to know the spell that made the washing up do itself, i'm not sure. I can say this after reading the 1214 pages of the last two books i am still left with one question, why does Hermione like Ron? Seriously Hermione, he doesn't even have a scar on his head! The final decision is that it's a good series but unless you have a lot of time on your hands then i wouldn't suggest reading all the books again.

P.S: The Harry Potter books don't tell you the spell to do the washing up by itself, i know were all annoyed.

The Two Pearls of Wisdom by Alison Goodman


The Two Pearls of Wisdom is a fantasy set in a world like Japan hundreds of years ago. The book is about the adventures of a young girl that is trying to become a dragoneye apprentice (a dragoneye is a powerful human with dragon-like powers).


A pet annoyance i have in a book is when you know that the main character needs to do something different or the answer is so obvious that it becomes frustrating and in The Two Pearls of Wisdom this occurred. Saying this however, its still a enjoyable read that fantasy readers and people who enjoyed 'Tales of the Otori' will like. Teenagers to Adults.
