As a teacher-librarian, I have the opportunity to read young adult books to share with my students. The list that I have provided will have an overview of the book and personal comments. They are on a Book-mercial style image to get a taste of the essence of the book.

Floodland by Marcus Sedgwick
I wrote this as a review. I was hoping the book would be great, it isn't. The tempo was off, no real tension in the story to drive it. Not sure why a ten year old girl would be the hero of the story. Wish the author would rewrite this. Needed a good editor and honest feedback. Would have liked to have seen this with a teen protagonist.
