The Agency for Scandal Written by Laura Wood. Reviewed by Isabelle, Age 12

I really enjoyed reading this book because it was something different to what I would usually read. I found it so page-turning and I finished it in just over a day without putting it down!

One of the things I enjoyed most about the book was the way it was written. Although it was historical fiction the way it was written made all the unusual things for modern day life seem normal. Though they weren’t outright explained everything that was different made complete sense and didn’t seem out of the ordinary. I think this was helped by the incredible way it was written to draw you into the world of the book which made me feel like I was living in the characters world. Another thing I enjoyed about the book was the characters I felt like as the book progressed that I was able to get to know them and by the end of it I felt like i was there with them.

I would recommend this to anyone who likes a good romance book but also historical fiction. I would say it would be most enjoyed by anyone over the age of 12 through to maybe about 18.
