Golden Night (Mystery By You)

Golden Night

Sophie is busy preparing an exhibition at the museum she works at, and she’s less than thrilled when a high-handed detective first denies her entry, then has a few problems believing she is who she says she is. Things don’t exactly improve when Sophie discovers the detective’s presence is due to an attempted robbery. Luckily, Tommy is perfectly reasonable when you get to know him, and soon they’re working together to solve a 200 year old mystery. But someone else is on the trail, and Sophie and Tommy are just slightly in the way.

Why I Love Book By You

Robin Hood (Classic Book By You)

Following the death of his parents, Robin has two choices. He can either become his uncle’s heir, thus denying his cousin his birthright (probably not the best idea considering what his cousin is like) or he can allow himself to be disinherited too and live in the woods as an outlaw. Robin decides to be an outlaw, and soon puts his means-tested version of tax into operation, making many friends along the way, including a number of people who have just tried to kill him. Robin could probably live like this forever if he has to, but maybe there is a way he could become part of society again. And if it’s a way that involves the pretty Maid Marian, all the better.

The Secret Code (Kids Book By You)

The Secret Code

Tuppence and Tommy (I do hope I haven’t broken any copyright laws, but I couldn’t resist) are saving up for a ride in a hot air balloon, but they seem to be having just as much trouble making money as the characters I named them after. In the absence of convenient criminals, they sell cookies and lemonade and plan a party for pets. But criminals come in all sizes, and when first Tuppence’s school project and then half the money they’ve saved goes missing, Tuppence and Tommy soon have more on their minds than balloons.

Starstruck (Romance By You)

Sophie is far from impressed when she sees Kenny gambling in a casino and getting thrown out for fighting, but it’s not as though she’s ever going to see him again. She’s about to fly to Minerva Seven to help negotiate a peace treaty, she doesn’t need drunken, gambling idiots in her life. But then she meets the commander of the starship she’ll be flying on – and it’s none other than that drunken gambling idiot. Sophie is determined to keep her distance from Kenny as much as possible…and Kenny can only hope she succeeds.

Dracula (Classic Book By You)

Solicitor Jonathan Harker visits Count Dracula in Trannsylvania in order to finalise the details of a house Dracula is buying in England. This book was written long before Twilight, so the possibility of Dracula’s being a vampire doesn’t occur to Jonathan at first, but there is definitely something a bit off about this guy who never eats, doesn’t appear in mirrors, and seems to spend every night flying around like a big bat. Jonathan manages to escape from the castle and return to his fiancée Mina, but he soon realises Dracula is close behind him.

Two Children & It (Kids Book By You)

This is the personalised version of E. Nesbit’s Five Children & It.

Sophie and Serena go on holiday and decide to dig a hole to Australia. In doing so, they meet a very strange creature with eyes on stalks and feet like a monkey who calls himself a Psammead and claims to be able to give wishes. This turns out to be true…but whoever said you should be careful what you wish for couldn’t have been more right.
