About

Places evolve… 2020.

This blog was initially (in 2007) written to provide reviews of (mostly) Young Adult fiction. Past reviews have been written by students, and many of the earlier reviews were written by Jane Crew (also tagged with her name) – many thanks for your great insights, Jane. There are, of course, opportunities for others to contribute – students, teachers, parents, others!

However, the blog is now maintained to reflect some of the best books you can buy for school libraries or your own library; along with extras like writing tools, reading links and other serendipitous discoveries along the way!

It is also now a platform dedicated to promote the love of reading and libraries (particularly school libraries) for our current and future generation of readers.
