    The Long Walk – Stephen King

    /

    Mini Review As someone who owns Stephen King’s On Writing, who loved the series, Haven (based on the short story, ‘The Colorado Kid’), reading more of Stephen King’s prose was long overdue. I started with this little gem and I loved it. You can feel the tension building on that long road to… perdition? The longer they continue, the more miles they make, the more it feels like it. I was gripped by the horror and inevitability of it all but most of all by the friendship between Garraty and McVries. I forgot their ages, especially McVries seemed wise and someone who’s seen it all – who has lived it…

BOOKS FOR KIDS OF ALL AGES

This page is exclusively for children’s books. Adults, read the reviews and remember your childhood books that stayed with you! Astrid Lindgren, A.A. Milne, E.B. White – just a few names you’ll no doubt recognise.

I feel strongly about opening up the wonderful world of books for children. If we can show children how fascinating, motivating and enchanting reading is we are already providing them with a better tomorrow!
A growing number of readers would like to read an audiobook - listen to it during a car drive or doing chores or perhaps just relaxing in a chair.

That’s why I also review audiobooks and hopefully, you will be interested. Read the audiobook reviews and get inspired!
