The Silver Notebook

Reviews / Votes

'I really enjoyed this book because it was so full of twists and turns. I loved Fleur because she is so feisty and care-free. The story is always changing so you never really get bored. There also wasn't anything I really disliked about the story, I think it was great.' -- Sophie Nicholson (age 13), Antrim 'Two strands are linked quite magically, in a poetic narrative which demonstrates the manner in which the power of the creative imagination can act as a bulwark against the hardships which life inflicts.' -- The Irish Times * The Irish Times * 'Her lyrical use of language and imagery shines through . . . ideal for reading aloud and would make a great class reader as there is so much to talk about.' -- Irish Independent * Irish Independent * Robert Dunbar's top 30 Books of the Year 2007. 'A boy's love of words and his ambitions to be a writer are skilfully blended with his search for his missing father.' -- The Irish Times * The Irish Times * 'Children love secrets and mystery and this story is full of both.' -- The Sunday Tribune * The Sunday Tribune * 'One of the most attractive books of the year. This is a well-paced, beautifully written thriller, gripping and moving.' -- Celia Keenan - Sunday Independent * The Sunday Independent * 'If you are looking for an original story, Enda Wyley's The Silver Notebook is a beautifully written and intriguing mystery in which a notebook changes a young boy's life forever.' -- Alison Walsh - Sunday Independent * The Sunday Independent * 'Has an excellent surprise ending . . . an engaging and easily digested book and should prove appealing to readers aged over 10.' -- Evening Echo * Evening Echo * 'Written with poetic sensitivity and structures with great skill. . . a remarkably assured performance. Very warmly recommended.' -- Inis Magazine * Inis Magazine * 'A creative masterpiece.' -- Irish Examiner * The Irish Examiner *
