Hi! This is the third book talk l have done so far. I hope you are still enjoying this series!
I have reviewed these books in September, Girl Underground by Morris Gleitzman and Good Geeks go BAD by Catherine Wilkens.
A quick recap on them,
Girl Underground- Bridget went to a topnotch school and met Menzies. From there they went and tried to save BiBi and Jamal (from Boy Overboard).
Good Geeks go BAD- Ella decides being good doesn't get her anywhere so, why not try being bad for a change? Ella joins BUTTS, a group (kind of) and the influence at home isn't helping either...
The book I liked the most this month was...
Girl Underground because there was excitement and was more entertaining in general. I also liked how Morris Gleitzman linked up the two books Girl Underground and Boy Overboard.
If you want to learn more on them, these are the dates I posted them and links to the post.
Girl Underground-HERE 14th of September and When Good Geeks go BAD- HERE 26th of September.
I hope you enjoyed September's Book talk! Love-bookworm blog

When Good Geeks go Bad
Hi! I hope you enjoy this book review on When Good Geeks Go Bad.
Author-Catherine Wilkins
Genre- Fiction, Everyday life
Theme- Be unique l will explain why later in the post
Target audience- 10+ l will explain why later in the post
I chose be unique for the theme because Ella decides being good has not led her anywhere, so she turns into a rebel. Ella finds out that copying everyone else is not as good as being yourself.
I chose 10+ for the target audience because the ideas are hard to follow. The ideas are hard to follow because sometimes nothing is happening and sometimes you get a giant load of information.
This book is about Ella deciding being good has not been getting her anywhere so why not try being bad? Ella starts hanging out with the naughty/bad people. To make matters worse her parents recently divorced. Ella still remembers her parents constantly fighting.
I give this book 3 out of 5 stars ⛦ because l personally thought that the plot was quite bland and boring. Also sometimes during the book it was uneventful.
The question of the blog is are you compassionate? I personally think I am compassionate because I am kind and helpful whenever l can be. I definitely hope you are compassionate too!
Look forward to seeing new posts! Love-bookworm blog 😙

Artist(s)- Billie Eilish
Released- March 30, 2019
Album- WHEN WE ALL FALL ASLEEP, WHERE DO WE GO?
Genre- Pop
Song- bad guy
I give this song 5 out of 5 stars ⛦ because I really like the beat to this song and if you want to start singing, this is an easy song to start with because there is not much singing but more emotion and feeling to it.

Girl Underground
Hi! This is kind of a follow up book to Boy Overboard. If you have not already read that post, l recommend you do. I hope you enjoy this book review on Girl Underground!
Author- Morris Gleitzman
Genre- Fiction, Adventure
Theme- Be brave- l will explain why later in the post
Target audience- 10+ l will explain why later in the post
I will explain why l chose be brave for the theme. I chose be brave because the security guards kept shouting at BiBi and Jamal's father making him sad but they still wanted to get him out.
I will now explain why l chose 10+ for the target audience. I chose 10+ for the target audience because the backstories to the characters are quite complex and confusing.
Now the main character Bridget (from first person point of view), has a criminal family. Though her brother is in jail they only do it because Bridgets family (mostly her Dad and brother) do not see why they should not do it but the only reason that her Dad is a "criminal" is because they sell things from trucks that tipped out and sell them. Her brother (Gavin) is in Jail because he stole something so people didn't laugh behind their dad (Leonard)'s back. That is how Bridget ended up in boarding school where she met Menzies.
This book is about Bridget getting an education that her parents would never have gotten. It is quite obvious that Bridgets parents care about her because her parents cancelled something that they really wanted to get done. While Bridget is at her 'top notch' school a boy tries to read Gavins letter but of course Gavin is in Jail, so Menzies instead switches the letters around with a letter from a school project which Menzies thinks is really important because its about kids (Jamal and BiBi), from boy overboard stuck in a detention centre when they did nothing. That is when the problem begins.
Now that was a long paragraph!
I give this book 4 out of 5 stars ⛦ because it took quite a long time to get introduced into the problem and Jamal and BiBi. Sometimes you want to get into the problem, the tension and the excitement. Though once I did reach the excitement, Girl Underground was really interesting.
The question of the blog is what would you change your last name to? I chose this question because Bridgets family changed their last name from Podger to White. I would change my last name to Lena because to me any name that starts with 'L' is graceful and clever sounding.
I hope you enjoy this book review on Girl Underground! Keep on the lookout for new posts. Love- bookworm blog
