Elray is a trusting and polite child. She too has flights of ... more ... fancy - the scar left on her arm from the accident is her link to the spirit world and through this she 'talks' to her dead parents. All this is related to an eager Rena, a pale Ajax and a gloomy Harwood, who don't quite know what to make of it all …
* What's good *
The characters are brilliant, diverse and so different in every way that it's impossible to see how they fit together. Yet they do. 'The good times were gathering. We were beating down the sadness. I could feel it'.

An interesting way of telling a rather tried tale 
Hard to get into and rather shallow fantastic romantic story, great characters, cleverly written None Totally gripping, absorbing None that I found Pointless to list any kind of ""good points"" Pointless to list any kind of ""bad points"" The writing is superb, bringing Imperial India into the minds of me, a 21st Century boy. Overlooked in favour of 1984 and Animal Farm. They are great works and should be read, but this should be on everyone's reading list too.The Human Body - Janet Sacks
tons of facts and interesting flaps to pull none
Demon - Samantha Lee
A really great book Must have alot of time by yourself as it's unputdownable
Cloudland - John Burningham
Imaginative story; beautiful illustrations None for me
Preacher: Gone To Texas - Garth Ennis
Graphic Novels / Comics - Ennis, Garth
Wolves Eat Dogs - Martin Cruz Smith
The welcome return of Martin Cruz Smith's most famous character in an original and clever setting Doesn't go very far, feels a bit same-old, same-old in places....
A New Earth - Eckhart Tolle
Religion / Spirituality - Tolle, Eckhart
Not Quite the Diplomat - Christopher Patten
Fascinating and well-written book Sometimes skips around subjects very quickly
Alfie Weather - Shirley Hughes
