Reviews of the book

"Twist cottage contains two mini stories to introduce younger readers to the writtine of Anthony Horowitz.

The first, Twist Cottage, follows a young boy, Ben, and his father as they embark on a new life with a wicked step-mother. The move takes them away from their home in Bath to a small cottage in the middle of the woods. But this house has a past, and few who enter are seen again. This story follows the life of the family in this house.

The second, Harriets Horrible Dream, is the story of Harriet's dream. A young spoilt girl, Harriet's father suddenly goes bankrupt and is forced to send his daughter to live with a friend at his restaurant. But this restaurant isn't all that it seems, and neither is Harriet's dream.

This book was a strange one as I enjoyed the first story and thought it was quite engaging an interesting, but I didn't like the second and didn't really see the horror in it, partially because I found Harriet very irritating and thus unengaging.

I think this book would be a good quick read for young readers who are interested in the horror genre, but it really wasn't for me." Sam Woodfield
