Tina Gan, "Red Dot Diva"
This debut local novel is rich (in local references) and satisfying (as a mystery story).
Stephani Yeo, "Young Parents"
BOTH boys were clamouring to read the book first, so I was left with no choice but to read the book TOGETHER with the both of them...I found it to be utterly captivating enough to make me want to complete the book in one sitting...the localized dialogue is hilariously tongue-in-cheek and the book's subtle appeal to a child's instinct for the mysterious proved to be just what kept both Ash and Ayd deeply intrigued.
Kelvin Ang, "Cheekiemonkies"
A.J. Low have created an intriguing tale which would keep young readers eager to find out what happens next, while subtly documenting old-school landmarks such as Chin Mee Chin Confectionery and Katong Antique House. Looks set to be a betseller.
Clara Chow, "My Paper"
I like this book because it leaves you with questions in your mind which make you want to keep reading.
