Review:
Emily Knight: I AM was a fantastic book from the start and kept me gripped. Emily was a typical thirteen year old but she had powers, something most thirteen year olds wish they had.
Emily is sent to Osaki Training School which obviously trains her to use her powers.
I am not going to tell you what happens in the book because it would spoil it for those that want to read it but it is very good.
Well written and you will not be able to put it down.
If you like Harry Potter and The Hunger Games then you will like this!
