I was reading this in English and had to do an essay for GCSE.
It wasn't bad, we could have studied something a lot worse, but it was pretty boring.
It was interesting how the whole family was involved, but I didn't like the very end, it was almost predictable. It seemed to drag on a bit, and most of the characters just annoyed me.

I liked this book because i think it has a good storyline, i just didn't feel that it had a good ending. Even though it did make me want to know what the Birling family did.

It kept you hanging and keeps on making you interpret the ending, amazing book recomended to anyone. No bad points other than it finished. This book is amazing.

I didn't like the entire book. I thought it was rubbish and was really boring to read so I did not enjoy it. Not recommended.

All in all, An Inspector Calls is a good book with a little down fall.

I thought J.B. Priestley, An Inspector Calls was a good read because it was interesting but still gave us some factual knowledge. It was a good way to look at socialism and capitalism with both sides given.

This play is excellent and has got a lot of facts that were actually wrong what Mr. Birling said that the Titanic would not sink and there would not be a war. In the whole, the play is good act out and the reader can read about what it was like in the days without televisions and other technology that wasn't there at the time.

An Inspector Calls begins at a dinner party hosted by the Birling family, when suddenly a mysterious inspector arrives to question them about a suicide of a young girl named Eva Smith.
Then the inspector interigates the family and forces them to confess their involvment in Eva's death.
As I am actually in the middle of my essay for 'An Inspector Calls', I have had to learn a lot about the play, and I've enjoyed revealing its tale, as I'm sure you will too!

The story ends with a really good ending where it's not actually an ending, but it ends so that you think of the meaning behind the story a lot more. I think it is aimed at anyone above the age of 11! The story is used in a lot of schools, and me being a pupil that has just read it, I enjoyed the story a lot, and I have done a lot of research on the author and about the characters in the book!
An Inspector Calls by J.B. Priestly is fun to read, and I would recommend it!

J.B. Priestley An Inspector Calls (Heinemann Plays S.) This is a great story about a family who have all separately affected another person's life through their own selfishness. Although the moral seems simple, it actually requires quite a lot of concentration. There is one character that stands out from the rest, which I think the author tries to achieve, and does very well. Great book.
