Best books

This months book is private peaceful by Michael Morpurgo. A story of two brothers, them growing up and the adventures they go on that change their lives forever. It's adventure packed but still has normal everyday events that bring the book to life and make it feel more real, you can't not fall in love with the characters and their lives and the whole way through the book I wanted to hop into the pages and join them. To me it captures what it would of been like to grow up in England in the early 20th century. We travel with the main character: Tommo from his first day of school until he's an adult which gives the impression of you growing up with Tommo and his Brother Charlie making me feel more attached. The family go through ups and downs presenting the importance of family and the hardships we all go through as well as how unpredictable everyday life can be. The books end is the climax to the entire story and what the whole book is leading up to as it written in past tense by Tommo awaiting the very emotional climax. I have read a lot of emotional books but this one defiantly affected me the most out of anything I have ever read and I think that's what make this book so incredible and hard hitting. The book then ends after the climax on a cliff hanger leaving you to only pray for the best for the characters. Although Morpurgo's books are mainly aimed at younger children I feel this book is suitable for anyone of any age and if you haven't read it all ready I can't recommend it to you enough with it being one of my all time favourite book. And if you read it definatly let me know on my social media!
