Late night shopping-Carmen Reid

I would recommend this book to anyone, it was one of my favourite reads. It may be bias as I did read this book whilst lounging around in the sun all day on a sunbed however its a book I would recommend to any young teenage girl who enoys shopping and the glamorious side of life. Carmen Reid's writing is definetly aiming to attract a young female audience as her imagery talk about all the shopping and the stereotypical items such as shoes are described in such an appealing way in which it helps the reader feel more enticed and excited by the storyline. Its also a romantic read and adds a bit of excitement to the book.

Ballroom on Magnolia Street-Sharon Owens

Sharon Owens is mainly known for her bestseller The teahouse on Magnolia Street, however I have yet to read this and this was the first novel of hers that I have edured. This novel has a poignant storyline and has a range of sharply described characters who have very sharp personalities. They all have different twists and turns continueing around them and the storylines did keep me flicking through the book. I felt it was a good storyline and a comfortable read, I would recommend this type of book to my mother or someone in older generation than myself as I feel it has storylines which are shaped around the older generation. However, it can be enjoyed by someone of my age group ( which is late teens ).

Othello-William Shakespeare

The plot of Othello is what makes this play such an unforgettable and remarkable play, the characters are all very mysterious and enticing. However, the play itself for me is one that i find you do have to study in a group of people so i am grateful I have studied this play twice with two very educational people and a group of people as I feel it helped me understand and analyse the play a little more. The play is very captivating however with William Shakespeare's work i feel it's best reading with either a group of people to discuss your ideas and thoughts or someone who has more experience with this type of time periods and has worked with this type of work before.

A streetcar named Desire- Tennesee Williams

This 20th century play presents many different aspects of the legacy of the past, it deals with all the different characters and represents them all in a different light. I did actually read this play as part of my college course project and I did really enjoy it and even analysed further into the play as to what symbolic references are made throughout. Tennesse Williams presents the characters in such an unforgettable way, this is what made the play so outstanding in my eyes. The script is beautifully constructed and I would say it was one of my favourite plays I have ever read.

An offer you can't refuse- Jill Mansell

One of the best romantic novels I have ever read before, extremely captivating. I was consistently sitting on the edge of my bed reading this novel as It is a truelly rollercoaster story which makes you want to know what, why, when and how? The storyline is one of the best I have ever read before and the characters are all very enticing. And again this is Jill Mansell, who has met my expectations once again. This novel i found was better than 'Solo' however as there was more of an exciting romantic storyline taking place on each page. Her writing and her skill for captivating her audience definetly shines through and has gained her an extra fan (being me).

Solo- Jill Mansell

Fantasy and reality all packed into this novel 'Solo' beautifully. It features a range of rollercoaster events which gives you flicking them pages blissfully. The book was easy to get into and the events throughout kept me up practically all night, so be prepared for less sleep than normal if you read this novel. The ending is a typical happy ending scenario, however if your one for romance and humour you will love this novel, and it will be worth your money and time. Since reading this book I have been very Interested in Jill Mansell as her writing is captivating and really entices you into the story. My first book i have read of hers and I will be collecting the rest of her collection now.
