Book Review - Over the Line by Tom Palmer

I really enjoyed this book as it was really interesting and gave a lot of facts about WW1 that you would not learn about through boring facts.

This book was about a boy that loved playing football but protestors made him want to join the army.  Over a period of time he learns that there is another part of his country where people are fighting and killing whilst he is trying to accomplish his dream.  
However people persuade him to join the army as his country needs him. 

At first, he thought that he was going to be fine as his friends were by his side but then he learns that it is not that easy. He went from cleaning rifles and making food to actually being in a trench.  Tom goes through a roller coaster of emotions in the book.

This book was different to me as I have never read a book like this before. I usually read mystery books written by Anthony Horrowitz.  I would definitely recommend this to someone as this book was really interesting and had a lot of facts.

I really enjoyed this book and rated it 5/5.
