Malorie Blackman, Noughts and Crosses Review

Overall Rating

It used different techniques to emphisise racism and to show the down side of racism. It also showed us that racism is taking place all over the world and the differences between poverty, working class and the middle class.

It was very depressing and upsetting at points. This did however also work in the novels favour making the reader feel sorry for the characters being effected by racism.

It was well written and a very good book, i would recommend this book to all young readers. It is an enjoyable easy read and is trully gripping. I couldn't not close the book once i had started, i just wanted to read on.
