This is a fiction book type written by Kate Thompson in 2005. It is the winner of both the Whitbread Children's Book Award and the 2005 Guardian Children's Fiction Prize. After reading this book, I find that the plot is really boring because it just rotates around how music can inspire people to do something, a fact that everyone has known very clearly; in other words, there is no any other complicated or interesting fact about the characters or any special moments to 'hook' me. You can find this by looking at the chapters in the story-Each of them is very short; about 10 page long and there is a sheet with musical notes written on it, which makes the story more boring in terms of structure.
For the plot part, the book just rotates around with the giving presents for Helen Liddy all the time without adding or having any great details and sentence structures that make the story more interesting; it just lists facts and facts with no descriptions for each one. The only change that the author has made is that there is a fifteen year-old boy, called JJ, keeps coming to Helen's house to invite her to come to his house. This is even more boring.
In conclusion, I would not recommend you to read this book because it is exactly as same as a sleep-maker.
