5.0 out of 5 stars Best Read Since Skellig, 9 April 2009
By S. Eves (London) - See all my reviews
Season of Secrets entwines the myth of The Green Man with Molly's story of loss and her new life with her grandparents in the country. Sally Nicholls' second children's novel is the best read since Skellig. I think of children's author, David Almond, as my soul author and I didn't think I'd ever find another children's author to match his writing.

Sally's first book, Ways to Live Forever won the Waterstone's Children's Book prize last year. I offered it to my teenage daughter to read and she declined saying, "I don't want to read any more books about dying!" But Ways To Live Forever is not just another book about dying, like Seasons Of Secrets, it's a book about being a child and all the magic and fear and sense of belonging and laughter and tragedy that childhood brings.

Sally Nicholls is the second of my soul authors and she has written her second brilliant Children's Book - I'll want to read everything she writes.

5.0 out of 5 stars very beautifully written, 6 April 2009
This has the sort of deceptive simplicity that makes writing look so easy! Each observation or description is deftly chosen. The world that Nicholls depicts seems timeless; grandparents as shopkeepers; school is a short walk down the hill; hawthorns form the dense hedgerows. It would be an idyll, if it wasn't for the strange hunt that takes place just beyond the village. And Dad's painful absence.
Molly feels that she must take care of the hunted man, but how can she when she isn't even sure that he's real?
Season of Secrets did remind me of David Almond's work, not just the mysterious stranger, but also the descriptions of the northern countryside. But comparison with Skellig is no bad thing! This is a real treat.

5.0 out of 5 stars Season of secrets Sally Nicholls, 13 Jul 2009
By Hayley Warren (United Kingdom) - See all my reviews
This is one of the most sensitive,pages turning books for young people published this year. It deals with family tragedy, the sudden death of a mother and the impact on those left behind. The fantasy element is woven beautifully round the story. I am a school librarian,and my girls are reading it very quickly and recommending it to their friends.As a follow on from Ways to live for ever it is another triumph for Sally Nicholls!
