Knife Edge: Book 2 by Malorie Blackman (Paperback, 2005) Paperback – 29 Jun. 2005

This book is so emotional that i had to take breaks from reading it. I nevet classed myself as racist but her first book showed me i was, i was a passive racist but i have never felt anything like the hatred in these books. And when you think that maybe theres a lesson, like love conquers all or something, any good feelings are ripped away from you and and your shocked by the intensity of the mindless hate all over again. No happy endings here

My views: the first book (noughts and crosses) did it all for me and I don't think Knife Edge made much difference. Although we get a POV from Jude/Meggie/Jasmine and we explore motherhood with Sephy - I just felt there was nothing written that could overcome the shock readers experienced in the first book. We read new experiences with Jude's surprising relationship and Sephy's newly found talent. However I found that whilst some points were entertaining (as this is the main storyline) - it didn't live up to the momentum experienced in Noughts and Crosses.

It was good to read it straight after Book1 and Novella, it maintained its deliberate pace and eventually made progress. I cannot say these books are the best I have ever read they pass the time due ok by Lockdown.!! I will now begin Book 3 .

I could not put this book down. I think that explains to you why i have given it 5 stars. This is a book of politics, racism, hatred and love intertwined, leaving the reader submerged in feelings intrigue and suspense. I already downloading the next book in the series as I write this review. Thank you Malorie Blackman.

I recently read Knife Edge and it is a very good book.It is gripping and fast moving.However I felt that one part of the story wasn't well planned. After that moment(which I cannot tell as it completely spoiles the story!) it became a very deppresing book which I certainly didn't like.Maybe it was just my taste of books but if you want a book whuch is very gripping I would read the Noughts and Crosses series

First book was good and challenging but this is not up to that standard. Pity.

I bought this book after reading the first book in the series and I am not disappointed. I would (and have!) recommend this to anyone and I am now hooked. I will definitely be buying the next books in the series.

This is the second book in the noughts and crosses series. callums dead and sephy is all alone and with her new daughter callie rose. we see sephy develop as a character and what she goes through, and what comes to living with callums mum. we see a battle against discrimination and race as we have done in the 1st noughts and crosses book. This is an excellent young adult novel and iv really enjoyed it.
