    Gorgeous story. Definitely would be great for Y8 or 9.

  • Dawn Raids

    By Oscar Kightley

    Epic play that gave me lots of feels and really made me think. Definitely recommend for Year 11 or 12.

  • The Plinko Bounce

    By Martin Clark
    5 stars

    Great crime book with lots of twists. Likeable narrator and realistic story.

  • The Axeman's Carnival

    By Catherine Chidgey
    5 stars

    I didn't think I'd like a book from the perspective of a magpie, but I definitely did! It was so well-told and engaging. 100% recommend.

  • The Dinner

    By Herman Koch
    4 stars

    Very slow burn, but intense. The whole novel happens over dinner between two couples where the husbands are brothers, with flashbacks. The narrator is hard to pin down; seems reasonable and reliable, but as the story progresses he becomes unnerving and suspect.

  • Pet

    By Catherine Chidgey
    5 stars

    Shocking book! Great and clenching read. Definitely recommend.

  • Better the Blood

    By Michael Bennet

  • Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban

    By JK Rowling
    0 stars

  • The Fraud

    By Zadie Smith
    5 stars

    Amazing book that explores what it means to be authentic, what it means to stand up for yourself, and the frustration that a lot of these battles are *still* being fought. Definitely pick it up.

  • Happiness Falls

    By Angie Kim
    3 stars

    A father goes missing and his son with Angelman syndrome and ASD is the prime suspect. Didn't love this story; went on a bit too long.

  • My Husband

    By Maud Ventura
    5 stars

    Fascinating story about a woman who is obsessed with her husband. We follow her for a week as she makes decisions and wonders whether her husband is leaving her/cheating/still loves her. While is seems a bit one-note, it's quite a thrilling read.

  • Penance

    By Eliza Clark
    4 stars

    Intense story about three school girls who murder a classmate. There are multiple perspectives in the novel, so you get everyone's motive and mindset. Fascinating, but harrowing.

  • Good Material

    By Dolly Alderton

    Interesting read about a 35-year-old who is now single and how he deals with that. The ending took me on a journey!

  • A Short Stay in Hell

    By Steven L. Peck

  • Game Changer

    By Neal Shusterman
    5 stars

    Engaging and heartwarming book about a high school American football player who gets knocked into other dimensions. Great book to read with Year 10s or 11s to help build empathy and understanding for others.

  • Icebreaker

    By Hannah Grace
    4 stars

    Hockey/figure skating romance. Very spicy, so be ye warned!

  • The Short Story Advent Calendar

    By Hingston & Olsen
    0 stars

    A short story advent calendar where each day there is a new short story to read; such a treat!

  • The Thursday Murder Club

    By Richard Osman
    4 stars

    An entertaining book where octogenarians meet every Thursday to solve a cold case, only to have a real case fall into their laps. Fun read with some mature content.

  • The Secret Service of Tea and Treason

    By India Holton
    5 stars

    A lighthearted romantasy. Some great representation, as the main characters are neurodiverse. Fun summer book (go away, rain!) A few spicy scenes, so be aware if recommending to others.

  • Turncoat

    By Tīhema Baker
    5 stars

    Awesome satire about Te Tiriti and what it means to be a public servant as Māori. Would be a great Y12 or 13 text!

  • Emma of 83rd Street

    By Audrey Bellezza and Emily Harding
    4 stars

    Contemporary retelling of Austen's Emma, set in NYC. Fun summer read with a bit of spice.

  • Iron Flame

    By Rebecca Yarros
    5 stars

    New adult fantasy world that my Year 11s, 12s and 13s loved, so obviously I had to read it. Great book to get an older student into reading. Main character has chronic pain, and another prominent character is deaf, so really interesting representation in the book. FYI: There is explicit sex in the book, so be aware when recommending this book.
