Have you ever just finished reading a really great book and wished that you could broadcast the recommendation to everyone you know and even to perfect strangers?! Good reads do that to you- stir your hearts, find your inner voice, hold your breath in anticipation and basically makes you pump your fist and say "That was a shiok (Singapore slang for great) read!"

Well, this is a platform for us to share these great experiences with one another! All too often, we read a superb book and do not have the chance to pen down our thoughts and to recommend it to someone else. Do that now, by dropping us an email at bookpicks4all@gmail.com so that we can post it on this blog.

Do, however, bear in mind that kids as well as adults read this blog, so do be discerning in your recommendation, choosing only wholesome and noteworthy reads. Much thanks to all and happy reviewing!

Sarie's Choice - Archibald by Shermay Loh


This is a book which all the P4s and P5s in my school were given. At first when I saw the cover and the starting of the book, I felt confused and puzzled about what the story was about. After some time of reading, I started to understand the characters and started to get excited about what would happen.
  It is about a boy called Archibald who gets bullied by this boy who is the king's son but thanks to Archibald's older brother, Alexander and his new friend, Calio, they work together as a team and sort out some problems.

When people started going missing, it is such a mystery! They then discovered a secret entrance to the catabombs and the whole story started to get risky and exciting! When I was reading a particularly exciting part, my head was buried into the book and I had to keep on reading to find out what was going to happen. I shall not tell you the whole story as you need to read to find out! You can find it at Popular Bookstore now while stocks last but I  don't think you can find it at the libary. Have fun reading!
