Book Boy

I’m a 15-year-old Aussie boy who loves to read. My favourite books include ‘Jasper Jones’, ‘To Kill A Mockingbird’ and ‘The Lord Of The Rings’.

My website contains reviews of books from junior fiction to YA novels and, now, adult reads as well. I only review books I like. My brother writes younger reviews for Book Boy as Book Boy Jr.

My book reviews have appeared in The Sunday Telegraph, and on sites such as Children’s Books Daily, Creative Kids Tales and Inside A Dog.

I am a former member of the #LoveOzYA committee (2018).
