Here's a bunch of YA and Middle Grade horror novels I read in 2025 which I never got around to reviewing for @gnofhorror.com at the time. There are some cool reads here and a couple of underwhelming ones. Plenty to choose from though! #kidslit #ukkidslit

Out today - @rossmontgomery.bsky.social ‘s first adult book and it’s great. Sweary octogenarian, twisty plot and intriguing historical facts. But most importantly, very fun. Probably not one to recommend to pupils, but totally recommend for grown up reading pleasure. #UKKidsLit author

A photo of a large group of people, standing. Most are mid-whooping! Smiles & laughter. At the centre is this years’s Little Rebels Award Winner, Sarah Hagger-Holt, holding a framed picture of 3 toddlers (one of whom is holding a ‘Take Action’ placard). To her left is Ken Wilson Max, the artist who created the picture. They stand in a space surrounded on all sides by bookshelves.
Hi #LittleRebelsAward Folk!
10 days on and we’re still absolutely buzzing 🐝from our award evening.
A huge thank you to @theclpe.bsky.social for allowing us to host in their glorious Literacy Library.

Chair, Darren Chetty, sat down, in profile. He is speaking, holding a mic in left hand and looking down at his iPhone in right hand. To his left is author Cathy Jenkins who looks down, laughing.
Author SF Layzell holds a mic & is talking. To her left is author Cathy Jenkins. To her right is author Elle McNicholl and, next to her, author Sarah Hagger-Holt. All are sat down, front facing. Everyone is smiling.
Author Sarah Hagger-Holt has the mic now and is gesturing with her other hand, legs crossed, in a casual pose. To her right is a big board with a kids book illustration (red riding hood?) To her left is Elle McNicholl who is turned towards her and laughing. To her left we can just see SF Layzell.
Now Elle holds the mic. The other panellists are all laughing.
1/2 A fabulous Little Rebels Award Shortlistee Panel at our award night last week. Thank you @darrenchetty.bsky.social for your always-thoughtful & inquisitive chairing. And thank you @sarahhaggerholt.bsky.social @ellemcnicoll.bsky.social @sflayzell.bsky.social &Cathy Jenkins..
