The Ant Colony
Jenny Valentine
This is a story about Bohemia, Sam and the other residents of number 33 Georgiana Street, Camden Town. Sam is a runaway. No one knows who he is or where he came from, apart from nosy Miss Isobel and 10 year old Bohemia. Bohemia and her irresponsible mum, Cherry, moved to 33 when Mr Somebody (as Bohemia calls him) broke up with them after finding out there was a Bohemia.
My favourite part of the book, without giving any spoilers, is when Sam takes Bohemia to Hampstead Heath . I enjoy this part because it shows how observant Bohemia is. I also like this book because it is set in my local area. It was fun to recognise all the places the characters went to, and my own situations and memories in that particular place.
My favourite character is Bohemia because she is a similar age to me, loveable, and interesting. She takes part in many things, including shoplifting, to make her mum happy. She keeps the story going until a clever twist at the end.
Overall I give this book 10/10
