Words last for ever by Malorie Blackman.
This is a book of short storys. The short story i have choose to read is Dad, can i come home? This is about a girl called Eve and her dad is away at the war.Eve phones her dad every night to talk to him. Her friend saves her life and loses her legs and arms. At the end eve dies. I think this book is suitable for people age 5 and above.

Tell Me No lies

By Malorie Blackman

Mike could feel her eyes like lasers,boring in to his back. He had to fight not to turn around. Did she know his face ? Had she reconized him?

I didnt really like this book.
