I did not like it,it was my least favorite book out of them all😔. It was not very interesting. I thought I would not like it from the cover and I did not😱. I didn't enjoy it at all. I thought it was a bit childish because it had mythical creatures that most children

9-11 get bored when reading something with them in.

This book was different. It was my least favourite book and I did not enjoy it. It was quite boring for me but it does not mean it is a bad book for others. It involved monsters so I would recommend it to people who like that type of fantasy stories!! 📓📓📓📓😁😁😁😁

Personally I did not particularly like this book I thought it was quite boring.Other people might like this but sorry Julia Golding it did not appeal to me. But I would say never say never.⭐️⛵️

This book was very very unusual yet it was not my type for the following reasons : There was too much going on and it was hard to follow; It didn't explain some things and some characters. I would not recommend this to people who like a good explained story with an interesting background. I also think it wasn't suitable for my age considering all of the fantasy characters . I didn't think the pirates fit into modern London The only parts I enjoyed about it was certain scenes that only lasted for half a chapter. (There were not many of those parts). This book was just not my type but doesn't mean it won't be for others.

This book wasn't very intriguing I found it rather dull and gloomy.

It did not interest me very much. Unlike demolition dad. I wouldn't recommend this book to anyone.

I thought that this book was quite boring and did not interest me that much. This book was better for people that prefer monsters.

This book was not for me but it does not mean it's a bad book.

I absolutely loved this book. It was amazing. I loved the fact that it was full of monsters and adventures. Mel Foster and the Demon Butler is an amazing title and the front cover really catches your eye. I would really like to meet this author and maybe get a book signed by her. I would definitely recommend this book to all my friends and family because I enjoyed it so much. This is a book I would read again and again and again until I eventually found a book to beat it. 10/10 for the description of all the characters and settings you should definitely read this book.

I love this book! The characters were all unique; each one had a different personality. The plot was thick right from the beginning and there were no hints about what would happen.

I really liked Mel Foster it was really interesting and I really liked the characters.

I liked reading this book because it's got a twist this was a the first of all the books I read and understand rally enjoyed it.

This was my favourite (and last) book of the shortlists. I couldn't stop reading this. I finished it in two days and was very satisfied with the ending. My favourite character was Eve and I would recommend this book to fans of mystery and monsters.

I thought that the book was a great hooking device, I just couldn't pull away from it. I personally loved it loved

this book keeps you hooked and is JAM PACKED with mystery and excitement there for I gave it a 4/5

I think the book was good but I don't read books that are in this category I would recommend this to people who read books of this type good job julia

I found this book slightly boring because it just kept repeating the same goal over and over. Also, the action wasn't that interesting as it only went on for about 20 pages. However, I liked the different unique superpowers that each of the characters had. Overall, i enjoyed this book in some parts and didn't in others.

I did not enjoy this book at al, i found it extremely dull especially toward the middle. This book took me ages to finish. I really disliked this book.

I gave this book a 4 because it was quite hard to understand at the begining but then it got better. I recomend this book to people that like a lot of mystery.

M-magnificent

E-excellent

L-lovely

F-fantastic

0-ooh

S-spectacular

T-terrific

E-extraordinary

R-rib tickling

It keeps you griped into the story and there are many twist and turns. I would recommend this too a younger age and by that I mean 9 or 10 year olds. It is very interesting and fun I didn't wan to put the book down.

This is an amazing adventure because it has amazing description and amazing characters. My favourate characters were Inky,Nighty and Abel.They all have exciting peresonalities and I would definitely say it is an amazing book !

I thought that Mel Foster and the Demon Butler was boring and went on too much.It did not interest me at all.I would recommend this to people who are into mysteries and adventures.Overall I did not like the book.

Mel Foster and the Demon Butler. I thought was just a bit dull because nothing interesting really happens, even though the story does improve at the end. What I like about the book is tat it switches between the Queen or the Royal Place and what is happening with Mel and his friends. The main characters are Mel, Eve, Lady Dracula. I would recommend this book to people who are 8 years and older because the author has a lot of imagination.

At first I thought this book was quite good but halfway through it got a bit boring because in my opinion the same thing happened over and over again, I like adventure stories, but not this one!

I couldn't put the book down...it was too good to stop reading!!!

I enjoyed this book in parts, sometimes the author introduced the characters whithout an explanation of who they were though. They described what they looked like, in fantastic description, but we weren't told very much about them. My favourite character was Mel because of his bravery and courage. I liked the plot and the description best. Although sometimes you could get lost in the text, but you eventually found you way back into the story-line.

This book was action packed and really easy for me to sit down and enjoy I hope you write more stories like this!

This book isn't good but isn't bad I would reccomend this book to people who like monsters vampires and mummies.

Good not so much my type of book Mel is an orphan eve is a monster and they have to beat a Victorian butler.

I didn't enjoy this book because the story line was hard to understand and the topic didn't suit me. There was more description around introducing the characters that made it a bit enjoyable

This book had a slow nice start but then when you thought nothing could go wrong it could have been the end of Mel's life. This was full of action and science.:)

It was a very hard read but I enjoin quite a lot it is about a demond butter.I rate it a 4 out of 5 .

It was ok but was slow and I thought it could of been better. My favourite character was Mel foster but I thought the cover could be more appealing. I'd recommend this book to people who like historical books. But not to people who like fast-paced books and characters that have a more modern background. It looks like an easy book to read, however it is full of unfamiliar words and references to Dickens novels.

I didn't like this book. I didn't get to the finish the book. It wasn't my type, maybe people that like the paranormal, they might enjoy it. I think Julia Goulding set the scene well and also she described it very well.

Mel Foster and the Demon Butler was okay.It wasn't really bad I actually loved the descriptions (e.g-the openers).I loved Eve,she was my favourite character I wish she had been in it a little bit more.Anyway this was a good book but was not my type.

This book was very amusing but I found the actual plot line very cheesy and I did not enjoy the brief descriptions as much as I like longer descriptions. I had trouble picturing anyone in the book and I had to rely on the pictures quite a bit.

I really liked the idea behind this book;however,I found the actual story a bit tacky and quite predictable. I liked the characters but I think they could be described in a bit more detail as I like longer descriptions.

I enjoyed reading this book;however,I found it wasn't my cup of tea.Next time I would chose a book of more my type of genre.This is an amazing book congratulations Julia Golding this is a fantastic book.

I found this book OK. Not to bad or not to good. I would recommened this book to kids of all ages who are interested in monsters, mummies, vampires and the paranormal! My favourite part was when Eve Frankenstein was discovered and freed from the ice. This book was still interesting and amazing!!! Well done Julia !!! 👏😊👏

To me Julia Golding worked wonders with her charecters putting a twist into her plot here and there to make sure it was always moving along. One of the main reasons I loved this book was it started of normaland just got stranger and stranger until it was crazy!It also showed me unusual can love usual.

This book is totally awesomeness and I recommend it a lot

It was great that it had the pictures at every chapter. But it got annoying that it was rotating pictures, it could of been different.

I liked this book but it wasn't my type of book . It was ok. In some parts the book was boring and it took me ages to read. I do not recommend this, but some people may like it.

I like this book because of the thrilling story line.Lots of tides turn as Mel fights his way to a glorious victory.I really couldn't put this book down!

I absolutely loved this book. Just one of them books that I couldn't put down.It was mysterious and a bit dramatic. I would recommend it to people who love adventure and monsters. It gives you an urge to read on. A great and amazing book.

This books was funny. Eve Frankenstein spoke French and they met Victorica who was a Dracula who could turn into a bat.

I think this was number.1 and it was funny,mysterious and scary at the same time i would LOVE to read another of Julia Golding's books I hope children will enjoy this as much as I did!!!

This book was amazing I really enjoyed it. Is there going to be a sequel to this amzing book? The start took quite a bit of time to get into but 40 pages in-it got awesome. Please reply and keep on writing because you`re an amazing one!

The beginning was good but it got worse and worse the closer it got to the end.

Mel Foster and the Demon Butler was a good book yet I found it a bit dull and repetitive. If you like a book jam packed with adventure then this is great for you. When Mel Foster discovers a giantess named Eve in a great big block of ice, he is stunned. Eve kindly helps them out of the ice they were stuck in. They make their way to London where the queen's new butler is on a hunt for monsters to present to her majesty. Mel and Eve are constantly on he move as they try to escape the capture of themselves.

Well done Julia Golding, it just wasn't for me.

FANTASTIC!!!AWESOME!!!BRILLIANT!!!this book is all about monsters and evil butlers. I really recommend this book I will definitely nominate this book. it Is the best book of the lot I hope other people will think the same

AMAZING!!!MONSTERS!!!ADVENTURE!!!This is how I describe this book in 3 words. I really think Eve is good, although she isn't good when called MONSTER!!!

This book is really good because it is really imaginative and creative also its all about monsters which really fascinating. But it was a bit sad so I gave it a 3.

At the beginning of the book I thought it was going to be really exciting when Mel Foster finds Eve however I thought it got boring at the end therefore I give it a 3.

This book is not really for me.

Mel Foster and the demon Butler was a great book with good setting and an amazing combination of drama,mystery and adventure for the genre. The monsters were amazingly described with a great plot twist. 10+ kids should read this book.

I loved all the problem solving in this book. I also liked eve's saying,"I AM EVE FRANKENSTEIN. I AM BEAUTIFUL. I AM LOVED. KNOWBODY CALLS ME MONSTER."

This is a good book sometimes very difficult to read because of some of the odd words,whereas the story line was really good I'd recommend this for ages 10-12

This book is about a boy named Mel Foster who is stuck in a block of ice on a trapped ship. He then finds a living creature frozen in ice. Later on at Buckingham Palace, the queens butler is evil and it is up to Mel to stop him.

The book wasn't really for me. Although it was a good story I just couldn't focus on any character as there were so many in one scene.

I would recommend the book to people who enjoy mystery stories and stories set in the past.

I thought this book was boring in most parts! That is why I gave it a 2. At first I thought it was going to be a really exiting when Eve the monster was found but then I thought it went on a bit and it didn't really appeal to me. I didn't really enjoy it!!!

This is a very good book but a bit slow paced for me but all in all it is a great read so I rate it a 3.

I didn't like this book because it was boring and I thought it was more for boys than girls. It includes monsters which I don't really like as storybook characters. I didn't like the time it was set in. I thought it was old fashioned. The start didn't really drag me in and make me want to read more. I thought it would get more exciting, but it didn't. I wouldn't reccomend this book to my friends.

I didn't really like this book.it is not really like a good book I think. I recommend this to people who like fake horror

Great book definitely read it again !!

I loved this book as it has a range of different characters but my favourite would have to be Eve. This is due to the fact that she is so brave and loyal and that she has this awesome motto" I AM EVE FRANKENSTEIN. I AM BEAUTIFUL. I AM LOVED. KNOWBODY CALLS ME MONSTER! " I would recommend this book to people who like mysteries.

Mel Foster And The Demon Butler is my favourite book so far it is awesome , exciting, brilliant the reason why I like it so much is because it is intresting

I loved this book as it has a range of fantastic characters, but my favourite character would have to be Eve. This is due to the fact that she is so brave and loyal to Mel and that she also has this awesome saying: "I AM EVE FRANKENSTEIN. I AM BEAUTIFUL. I AM LOVED. NO ONE CALLS ME MONSTER!"

This book was OK but not really my type of book

my favorite character was eve because she was really brave

thank you Julia

I kind of liked this book. I liked it with it's mystery solving but I didn't like the twisting of plots.

I enjoyed this book but there was not much humour and I enjoy a book with humour. My favourite character was Eve Frankenstien because she was funny and silly. I gave this book 4/5 because it was good but not the best book I've ever read.

I really enjoyed this book,my favorite character was Eve Frankenstine with her crazy saying, I am Eve Frankenstine, I am loved, Iam beautiful and no-one calls me monster.

I do like the storyline about the monsters and that Eve protects Mel from the ship`s crew when they try to capture Eve by hurting him. Mr Burlington seems pretty mean, with Mr Copperfield a nice, frail old man...

I didn't really get this book at first because I read it too fast. I get it a lot better now because I read the lines twice. This book has really good tension when Mel Foster gets put in that claustrophobic box. I really liked that part. This book is amazing!

I like this book because it is interesting and that is interesting is when Mel foster gets put in a tiny box and i keep on wanting to turn the pagethe page

I like this book because its confusing and jumps in to the story with no background information. I rate this book 4 out of 5 for its mystery story type which I love in books but if it had more mythical creatures and suspense I would rate it 5 of 5 stars.

I thought it was a good book with cool monsters. But it got a bit boring. Overall I thought it was a good book

The book starts boring and stays the same during the whole book. Not a good read.

I didn't like this book because you didn't know who was who at the beginning of the book, and I like books that introduce the character first. However,I did like the description and how you described the surroundings a lot!

I didn't find Mel Foster and the Demon Butler an interesting read so I didn't finish it. This means that I don't know the plot fully, but I will tell you what I know.

Mel Foster is an orphan who is told he has to go on a boat trip to the Artic. However, when the boat gets stuck in a block of ice, the crew find Eve Frankenstein (daughter of Frankenstein) frozen in it. She walks over to Mel,not to hurt him but to protect him. That's as far as I got.

I didn't like this book as it didn't have very good vocabulary and the plot seemed too far fetched. The story seemed to jump about too much.

Therefore, I have only given it 1 out of 5 and I wouldn't recommend it.

The beginning of the book was a bit slow-paced but as you went along it got deeper and deeper and deeper. It was not my cup of tea since I like horror/murder/gory books. The monsters were a bit boring (like the start) and it was lacking scariness for me. Sorry Julia Golding this book really is not for me!:(

I started reading this book and it is, so far, awesome! I havent finished this yet but its really good! I would recommend this book to ages 9 to 13 because at some points I needed to pull out a dictionary. I would rate this book 5 star out of 5!

I found this book really exciting,even though the only fantasy/monster book is Harry Potter. One of the reasons I love this book is because it is very related to other classic stories such as 'Frankenstein','Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde' and'Dracula'.

This book is EPIC

I really enjoyed this book also it's quite hard to read because the language is set in the Victorian times so the jokes are quite old and weird however it's awesome and enjoyable as well as anything else. Plus I recommend to read it and I would think only 9 and over should read it because like I said so its quite hard to read. read it because it's amazing.

Mel Foster and the Demon Butler is an amazing story and plot, with twists and turns along the way. It is well written and much, much more better than I first thought. I would recommend this book to 9-12 aged people as sometimes you do have to get a dictionary out!!!

I don't like this book because I didn't understand any of it. I don't like how I didn't know were it was and I would defiantly not recommend this book.

This book was definitely not for me because a don't like monsters or adventure or things set in the olden times. I would reccommend this book for 8-11 because it is quite hard to understand. I think this book would be good for people who like a good adventure.

I didn't really like this book. it was too freaky for me.my favorate character was mel. he always kept his hopes up.

I think this was an adventurous story which made me want to keep reading. I felt really sorry for Mel Foster because people kept calling him a monster. This would have made him sad.I felt better at the end because it had a happy ending.Keep writing Julia Golding.

This is a book full of adventure.The first paragraph talked about his bad end; this made me want to read more as I wanted to find out what his bad end was. I think the book was exciting all the way through. I would recommend this book to anyone around 10.

I enjoyed this book although it was quite hard to get into. Normally I wouldn't go for this type of book but I did enjoy it. I like action books which was good because this book had quite a lot of action in it.I would have preferred it if it was set nowadays rather than in Victorian times.

WOW this book amazed me with its words, exhilaratingness, creepyness and twists, with every page I turned it made me more hooked! I loved it so much that i might have read it when I should have been in bed, hopefully Mel Foster completes her mission with Eve, but the Demond Butler is in there way whahahaha!!!! personally I think the first line is really entertaining, the director of the orphanage predicted that Mel would come to a bad end!!!

I didn't really like this book because there was no action to it.On the other hand the story line was really good.I do think that the book has too many characters in it. I like the way that the setting changes from the Artic to Buckingham Palace. I think it will be sutible for 7-9 year olds.

See what happens when the brave Mel Foster finds Eve a monster but the evil demon butler tries to get hold of Eve.this was a interesting book at the start but it started getting boring

This book is it's not as interesting as i thought it would be.Sorry Julia Golding.SOS :( 3/10

Mel Foster and the demon butler is an alright book with good,adventurous story.

This was an enjoyable book but I thought the start didnt resemble the rest of the book, apart from that it was really enjoyable and it embarked you on a great journey. I also really liked the character Cain he wasn't at all like his brother. There wasn't much action but there was a lot of adventure but the title does not really (like the start) resemble the book either. This book I thought was lacking a bit of action but all in all it was an enjoyable book.

This book is amazing. My favourite character is Eve because she knows so many languages and she is a great friend to Mel Foster. If I would recommend this book to anyone it would be someone who loves adventure books. This book is a total page turner. This has to be my favourite book out of the three I have read

I didn't really like the book . I think there should be more action and drama and recommend this to people who like a little bit of adventure

I didn't really like this book, I thought it was a bit boring at times.

I like the storyboard but I think the story drags on a bit. I didn't understand the first chapters. In some places it was really good, if only all of the book was good. I think the age range for this book would be 7-10.

I think that this book was a bit complicated and had to many characters.

I didn't enjoy it at all. It was interesting at the beginning but got a bit boring further on.

I didn't enjoy this book at all, it got confusing at different times. You can't understand what is going on in the book at most times, you just get lost. I like a book with humor or a mystery, this book has no humor in anyway, it is just not a funny book. Over all this is not a book for me.

I really liked the settings and characters in this story.I liked the way that the settings change from the Artic to the Buckingham Palace.My favourite characters were Eve,Queen Victoria and Viorica.

Mel foster is an amazing book so far and it is a mix between horror and drama so if you like those genres you will like this book. 1000/1000!!!

This book is a brilliant book. It has lots of action and drama to keep you reading it.

It starts when a cabin boy(Mel)finds Eve in a block of ice. They both travel to see Queen Victoria who has developed an obsession with monsters. The Queen has a creepy butler that has a peculiar influence over his Queen.It is up the to Mel to Mel to save the Empire!

I would recommend this book to 9-10.

I disliked this book because it was hard to get into and rather confusing.

My favourite character was eve because she was adventurous and I liked her little quote 'I'm Eve Frankenstein. I'am beautiful. I'am loved. No one calls me a monster.'

I found it a bit confusing as the settings kept changing and it kept changing from English to French. I think others might like this book but it just wasn't my style.

Mel Foster and the demon butler is so great for people who like mysteries but not too much. It is also great because of the style of language Julia Golding used even though it is a bit tricky. I like the part where they have to defeat the doubles.:)

I found this book boring as there was hardly no action and was very slow.I also found it boring because most of it took a part on the ship but was good towards the end.

I liked this book although the start for me was very slow. The end was much more exciting and I liked the character Cain as he was very kind to Mel. Also the character Eve was like a parent to Mel. Always concerned about him and protecting him. A slow start with a good end! Very good!

i love this story its really good.I love the person eve shes caring and brave.Julia this book is amazing i recommend for people who like monsters and mystery books.Fab book can't wait for next one.

This book was not my type of book but it was an adventurous book but it was sad at times. My favourite character was Mel because she was a 'different' character shall I say.

I didn't really like this book because there was no funny parts and I like a book with funny parts. I didn't really understand what was going on most of the time. This is not a book for me.

I didn't really like this book because there was no funny parts and I like a book with funny parts. I didn't really understand what was going on most of the time. This is not a book for me.

Their are many features of the book I absolutely loved : like the personality of the 'monsters' because instead of being the stereotypical murder machine , they were protective , servant like creatures who just want to help. Another detail I could admire was the fact that the setting and surroundings were fully described. The only thing to be changed could maybe be more humour even though it is supposed to be eerie. I recommend this to 9-11 year olds with a taste for adventure.

I only read the beginning of Mel Foster and the Demon Butler as I am not in the Leeds Book Awards group but from what I read it was really good! It puts you into the story straight away and you have to try and work out what is happening but after the first 3 to 4 pages I found it really exciting. From what I read it was looking like it was going to keep going up and getting even more exciting! Overall a super read! Have a good mystery adventure. I give this a 5/5!

I loved Mel Foster and the Demon Butler. I like it because the characters were great and some of the inventions and ideas were fascinating. My favourite characters are Incubus and Nightmare (although the names are scary, the characters are definitley not).Overall a great read and a good excuse to stay up late :-)

I'm giving it a 5/5!

I gave it 3 out of 5 because it wasn't my kind of book. I didn't find it interesting all of the way through, however it did have a bit of action. If you like monsters and living paintings then you should read this.

I gave this book a 2 because it was boring and hard to understand it. It is a weird book and it is only for people that like short unadventurous books . In my opinion this is an ok book.

I didn't like this book much because it did not have much funny parts and more dark and creepy parts. I did like the idea that Mel found Eve Frankenstein in an ice cube she'd been stuck in for 60 years. my favourite part was when Eve started talking French near the start.

I didn't like this book much because it did not have much funny parts and more dark and creepy parts. I did like the idea that Mel found Eve Frankenstein in an ice cube she'd been stuck in for 60 years. my favourite part was when Eve started talking French near the start.

it was unpredictable and The description was outstanding

Well done Julia Golding this book is amazing, from ugly monster fairies to coming to life paintings.It all starts when Mel Foster receives a block of ice, inside is Eve Frankenstein. Eve does not want to eat Mel she wants to protect him. The Queens butler has plans to destroy Britain and Mel is the only one that can stop him! I recommend this book to ages 9-12.I hope anyone who reads this will enjoy it as much as I did!

First I read about 50 pages and I got bored and left it, but I knew it would get better thanks to the blurb.So I kept reading on and it was awesome,absoulutly amazing!! Couldn't be rated as anything else but five out of five!!

I really enjoyed this book because the vocabulary was very good and there was a main story line throughout the whole book. My favorite character was Eve Frankenstein and my favorite saying was "I am Eve Frankenstein. I am beautiful. I am loved. No one calls me monster!"

I liked this book because it is very random and I think the best bit is when they are taken to the queen and I think that's where it all kicks off. Also I think the characters are really detailed and that's why I like them.

Although I found the book slightly confusing, I did enjoy it thoroughly. I would recommend it to people who like fantasy and and adventure and love big friendly giants!

I really loved the book and all the settings and characters. I liked the way the settings changed like from the arctic to buckingham palace. I loved the characters like eve, victoria and obviously mel. this story really fits with my personality like when the monster resistance is brave, its like me when I have the courage to be brave. I think this movie has the style of changing it into a movie like harry potter

Mel foster and the demon butler is a great and interesting book.

I rated this book a 4 out of 5 because it was a bit confusing the first few times it switched characters point of view.

In this story there is a young boy called Melchizadek Foster who has to save London from the queens new butler. The butler has an evil plan to take over the British Empire with the help of his master (the inventor.)

Personally my favourite character was Eve Frankenstein because she wasn't trying to harm anyone; all she wanted to do was protect Mel. This is my favourite quote: "I am Eve Frankenstein. I am beautiful. I am loved. No one calls me monster!"

This is my favourite book so far, however it was hard to get into. My favourite characters were Incubus and Nightmare, because they really wanted to get into the action- and they saved the gueen. Overall a great book filled with action.

Really disliked this book because it kept on switching settings and switching from French to English. Only bit which was good was the meeting with all of the monsters

Mel Foster and the demon butler is a great book, I personally like Eve Frankenstein and her emotive stand-up sentence"I am beautiful, I am loved and no one calls me monster." The things that could be changed are the sailors language it could be shortened and the some pages (chapters) go on about one thing a little bit too long but then changes on to something different that hasn't been mentioned on a page then goes back and forth. The things I like about the book are the tension for example when the captain tries to lore Eve into a box by pretending to shoot Mel on the foot then thrents Mel if Eve doesn't come with him then next time it will be real pain.I like Eve because she's very different, nice and talented. To me I thought she would be like all the other frankenstein's but I was wrong,Eve was unexpectedly French but also knew english and one other language.She is brave,intelligent,friendly and wondrous plus she doesn't hurt or kill people or animals . I think this book should be read because it is truly good book.

What I liked about the book was how it was set

But there was no thrill in it.thos book is not my kind of style

Julie Golding made a really good job of writing this book. It's action packed with loads of different characters. My favourite character in this book was Eve the giantess who got dug up out of a lump of ice in the North Pole and brought to life by Mel. I hope you enjoy this book as much as I did!

I rate this book a two because at the start I was enjoying it, but at the end I became uninterested and bored. However, I liked the characters: Mel and Eve. At the beginning Eve was creepy, but I got more used to the illustrations of her. Mel was my favourite character because he's brave and adventurous. I couldn't really pronounce Mel's real name, Melchizadek Foster. I think I'll enjoy the other books. This book is mysterious and weird, I still like Eve because of her strength. I partially enjoyed this book. My favourite part is when the ladies in dresses come. I hope others like and enjoy this book more than I did.

Mel Foster and the Demon Butler is an amazing book and I think the author explained the story in great detail.My favourite characters are Dr.Foster and Mel Foster because he had the courage to stand up to the Demon Butler when every body else ran away scared and this book never had a dull or boring part!I would recommend this book to people who like books with adventure!

I found this book wasn't my style I would recommend this book to people who like adventure books and fiction books. My favorite characters are the mummy,Lady Dracula and Eve Frankenstein.

This book was exciting, but started off slow and confusing but started to make sense. My favourite character was Mel Foster because he was curious, never gave up and adventurous.

I would recommend this book to people who likes adventures, mysterys and enjoy reading.

This book started of very slow and i found it a bit confusing. But once I got into the book I found it got better! My favorite characters are the mummy, Lady Dracula and Eve Frankenstein. I would recommend this book to people who like adventure stories and fiction books.

This book is very slow at the start but it got a bit more clearer as it got through. My favorite character is Eve because she is very brave and fearless. I would recommend this book to children who like adventure.

This book had a very slow start and you could not really understand what was happening. Throughout the book it got a little better but was not quite my style. For people who like an adventure and a bit of a mystery this is the book for you!

It started off very slow but it got a bit better as it went on. My favourite character was Mel because of how curious he was and how he never wanted to give up. Even though it was not my type of book i would recommend it to someone who likes a real adventure. My favourite part was when they found Eve.

not the best book in the world but as I got in to it it suddenly went bang and also I think the butlers a bigot

I personally think that Julia did really well with Mel foster. My favourite part was in Chapter one because Julia put in lots of description.my favourite character was Mel, the main character, because he was brave. I was really interested in the book and wanted to keep reading.

mel fosters and the demon butler is a great book my favirate part is in the middle.i rate it 4 stars read it.

I personally think that Julia did really well with Mel foster my favourite part was in Chapter one Julia put lots of description

I personally think the author could improve on explanation.

I rated this book 3 stars because it is very heavy going. Also, it starts OK and then it rises to great near the end, whereas I think it should start great and then get even better. This book is very descriptive and immersing but it isn't a WOW book to me. I think it will be great for others but it is just not my type of style.

Monsters are not always bad you know!

Welcome to the world of super monsters where you meet: cabin boy Mel, Eve Frankenstein and many others. Queen Victoria is obsessed with monsters and she can't stop looking for them. However is Buckingham palace all what it seems there's a creepy butler and he's in background hatching plans. Now it's up to Mel and Eve to save the day.

This book was certainly not for me. I read it twice but unfortunately the fog-like plot wasn't getting any clearer . Personally I didn't enjoy the fist 3 chapters as it was hard to understand and didn't make sense. Although it did have a few twists which I enjoyed.

My favorite character was Eve as she stands up for Mel even when things go wrong. Eve is a funny loving Chara and caring for people

I thought that the book was gripping and gets better the further you read into it.I think it should have more action and drama.I would recomend it to anyone who likes adventure stories.

At the start you don't really know what happens but as you get in its really good.

My favourite character is mel because half the time he doesn't know what he's doing

Mel Foster and the Demon Butler is a story about an ordinary boy named [ Melchizedek Foster ] who finds an unusual creature in a block of ice. When they found out that the Queen's chief butler [ Mister Burlington ] is hatching a secret plan to sell the Queen, the determined team have to stop him from doing so.

My favorite character is Evie Frankenstein, as she supported Mel in every step of the journey. The story was full of suspense ; it made me think who was in the block of ice. The mysterious scenes were my favorite, as it made me think ahead of the story.

However, it was little bit confusing at the beginning of the book, but as I kept on turning the pages in got more exciting and interesting. Overall, I think the book was quite good.

I recommend this book for readers, who like adventure stories, as it has a lot of exciting and fun adventures.

I rated this book 4 out of 5 because even though it was a very good book I thought that it was a bit weird and confusing because of all of the different monsters and that their powers were not explained enough.

Over all I liked this book because it was action packed. I only liked from chapter six to nine,where as the others where not that interesting.I think the charecters could have more features to them.I think this book could be improved by making the chapters not that detailed and more action in it them.

Firstly it was boring but then i got hooked.it is good for people who like mystery books.When i saw this book it didn't look interesting but it turned out to be amazing.The chapters are really long so that's what i didn't like.

It was quite confusing because the settings jump around a bit,but i would recommend it to somebody who might understand flashbacks.

In my opinion the chapters were to long and it seemed like two people were writing the book because there were some really exciting bits and some boring bits.I liked how the author included Charles Dickens characters for example Jacob Marley. Also Julia used some really hard words: Melchizedek.The book had really good language and vocabulary. Unfrotunately the book was just not for me.For younger readers who like adveturous books, this would really suit them.One of the downsides was that i could not relate to the characters and picture them in my mind.

It was good but not best the best because I am more into demolition dad.

I absolutely loved this book! Julia Golding has done so well on writing this book.It's exciting,thrilling AND scary all at the same time.The first sentence fills you with emotion and in the next sentence makes you feel sympathetic for Mel Foster.The pictures at the beginning of each chapter make you feel want to read more. You DO NOT want to put it down!

In my oppinion the book had a very slow start chapters were very long detiled and the book was exaggerating at some points.Some parts of the book got a bit carried away.I found that i couldnt understand some things for example melchizedek.Some of the book was boring and some of the book was exciting when it got to the main point the book went of on a tangent, this made it feel like there were two writers.This book would be a good adventure for a younger child but they would struggle to read it.One thing I did enjoy about this book is that it had realistic characters in it like Jacob Marley and Eve (Frankinstien.)Overall this is not my type of book.I prefer non fiction books, with a true story in them.I hope this advise helps you. I know somebody will like this book but not me im not keen on this book.

In my opininion this is not my type of book because it had a slow start but got very interesting when it got to the main point, including other characters from other childrens stories was very intreeging. Overall I think that this book's chapters were too long and the book did go off in a tangent and was very confusing. This would be a great book for a younger child but they would have a hard time reading the english.

I had mixed emotions about this book it had some great parts but I found some parts were not interesting or boring.

The book had a slow start but became more fun toward the main point. It had very cool characters that were interesting but they were too fictional for me to relate to making me feel distant from the characters.

The book needs to have shorter chapters because when I tried to read in my head I got lost or confused. I had to read out load to take it in. One good point about it is that it included characters from other books but sadly some of those characters names were to hard to read even for an 11 year old.

The book jumped the shark to much and told us all sorts of unimportant tings. Over all I didn't enjoy the book and was slightly disappointing.

In my opinion I think that the chapters are too long but I like that the author used different names from different peoples books.The book was interesting but at the same time boring. I think that the book would be interesting for little children because there's monsters and mysterious situation but they will have a hard time reading it because of the language used also the book jumped the shark too much and told us all diffrent sorts of things.

In my opinion the author should look at the book ones again and mayabe change it a bit and make it more exciting. over all this book is not my type even though it is advetures.

I didn't really like this book and I even gave up about a quarter of the way. I think that it is good, but I'm not really keen on it. I enjoyed the part when they found something in the ice gives tension and personally I think Julia did very well.

I think that it is good but im not that keen on it.I personally think that Julia did really well,i really enjoyed Chapter One when Mel says All that glitter is gold i thought a lot about it.I think it would be good for nine and over.Sorry Julia Golding.

I really like Mel and the demon butler because it is exiting and scary at points.I recommend this book to ages eight an older.The idea for the book is great and it is an excellent read.

I rated this book 3 out of 5 because I didn't find it that interesting. even though I read the book, most of the text wasn't exciting for me to read on however it is structured out nicely. sometimes the text became too long and the cohesion wasn't right.

The start of the book was a bit complicated, but as soon as you get you get into chapter two it starts to get good.In some chapters you really have to think about whats going on but other than that its a great book.

I liked this book because it is very adventurous and always wants to make you read on. I would recommend this book for 10-13 year olds ; it hasblots of complicated language.Due to their ability to transform appearance,my favourite chatacters are the twins (Abel and Cain).However sometimes the speech and paragraphs seemed to lack in cohesion and went on too long.

This book is good! I like how there is lots of different monsters and characters in it, and the unique plot line.

WAY too complicated just on the first few pages of the book , because of so many characters introduced, also because too many big words.

This book was quirky and exciting. It had lots of twists and turns in every chapter. I especially liked it near the beginning because it described Mel like I would imagine him. Throughout the book, the main characters' reactions were tested in perilous situations. This is my favourite book so far. A must read for 9-11 year olds.

This book was really good.I liked that it had a wild and wacky adventure in what seemed the normal city of London and I also really liked the monsters!It made you want to read more and more.Well done Julia Golding!

it is really good but at the start you don't really understand whats going on. but afterwards you don't want to stop reading it

It was really good but quite strange. I liked it because there was an good amount of acting and dialogue. I would recommend it to people who like action. It had some funny moments which made it little bit better. I put a four because a gets a bit complicated and could be simpler.

I liked about the book was that it was made creepy a bit and it used strong words to get people into the book

When I started reading this book, I wasn't so sure I was going to enjoy it but all of a sudden, I found myself hook. I had so many different predictions going through my mind as I was reading ( none of them were right). I loved the way the author included characters from other stories; very clever.

Looking forward to reading the next book, how about you Amy?

I think that this book is really good because it always has something going on.My favourite part was when eve said that she had never been in a bigger building than an igloo.

I love this book and its characters. My favourite character is Eve because she is always trying to protect Mel Foster. I also like the rhetorical question at the very end. I would like to read more books by this author.
