Book Review by Clayton D "An Imperfect Blessing" by Nadia Davids



The book is written by a Capetonian living in London. Didn’t enjoy the book. Too much information written in a squatter style. Recommended to historical readers.

Book Review by Clayton D " Wild about Cape Town" by Duncan Butchart



A very good variety of animals and plants occur on and around the Cape Peninsula. This is a very easy colour-coded all-in-one guide depicting the commonly encountered wildlife of various habitats, including mountains, wetlands and beaches, and is very useful for hiking on Table Mountain and ambling along the shore. The animal and plant species are colour-coded so it’s easy to use and find what you are looking for. I recommend this book to all nature lovers.

Book Review by Clayton D "Gremlin" by Chris Powling

For kids who enjoy books about aeroplanes. This is a short gripping story. The author provides enough details about the events happening on the plane and how he handled the situation. This book is for the 12-16 year age group.

This book is easy and creative. You don’t get any easier than the recipes in this book. It’s all about eggs and how good they are. Easy to follow the instructions.

Book Review by Clayton D: "IT" by Stephen King

The book is about a monster disguised as a dancing clown to attract its preferred prey. It exploits children’s fears and phobias. The survivors grow up and take revenge. Good book for those who enjoy horror.

Book Review by Clayton D: The foretelling by Alice Hoffman

This is an easy fantasy read for teens 13-14 years old. A good story for girls. The story is about a warrior princess being prepared for the throne once her mother is no longer queen. As young girls they are ready to fight for what they believe and most times they are fighting against men. they are powerful young ladies. Very good read!
