[Small Island by Andrea Levy]

I have just finished reading Small Island and it was defo an amazing read. I loved the switching between characters and time frames.

 

Andrea Levy has an amazing ability to make you love all the characters in the book, when I was reading Queenies pieces about Bernard I really did not like his character, but then after reading Bernards perspective I came to empathise with his characters alot.

 

If I have one criticism, it would be the end. I felt that Hortense should have discovered the link between Queenie and Michael. Would have been an awesome ending.

 

Highly Recomended!

[The Resurrectionist by James Bradley]

I read the resurrectionist a while ago.

 

I found that it was interesting in terms of its historical content, but felt the story itself was pretty dead (no pun intended).

 

I think you should give it a try anyway, it is a rather short book and some parts were good.
