2013 book 105

Amelia Williams' Summer Falls
After yesterday's birthday celebrations, I was too tired for anything that required a lot of brain activity, so decided to try this Doctor Who tie-in e-book (it briefly appeared in the first episode of this new half-season, "The Bells of St John"). It's cute, about a girl moving to a new town and then getting caught up in a race to stop The Lord of Winter from doing nefarious things. It reads pretty well as a supposedly-historical middle grade fantasy adventure (with plenty of little tongue-in-cheek references). The actual author seems to be Who producer James Goss, but it's billed to Amy so I'll let her have it. B+.
