A truly great play
A Taste Of Honey is a great, realistic, down to earth play that is excellent for young and old. Although it was written almost 50 years ago it deals with issues that are still very relevant today. The thing that i find incredible about this play is that it was written by an 18 year old, this makes it a great play for young people and certainly a great play to act. Recommended to all!

Not a book for all.
I have been studying this book at school for GCSE i found the characters interesting and the bonds of the relationships compelling but the story seemed to lack detail, in a way this is good to keep you reading but when i finished i was left with the question 'is that it'. The writer has produced a very good book which seems to show modern day life is still the same now, a very compelling book but some readers may find it a bit depressing, as i said it is for certain readers. But a all round good book and a nice read, (also extremely fun acting out in class, a lot of shouting which is always fun!)
