The expert reviews are in it's a hit!

Young ballerinas at Elmhurst Ballet School in Birmingham have been busy reading Helen Lipscombe's wonderful spy adventure, Peril en Pointe.

Though Elmhurst might not quite be a ballet school that's also training up spies (as far as we're aware), the students of the prestigious dance school are thoroughly taken with Helen's debut, and have sent us in some incredible hand-written reviews that we just have to share with you!

After months and months of waiting, the MAZE RUNNER movie finally hit the big screen on Friday! Directed by Wes Ball, the film adaptation features a whole bunch of talented stars - including Will Poulter, We're the Millers actor and winner of the 2014 BAFTA Rising Star Award, Skins actress Kaya Scodelario, Game of Thrones and Love Actually actor Thomas Brodie-Sangster, and lead actor Dylan O'Brien, best known for Teen Wolf.

And the reviews have started pouring in! Check out a couple of our faves ...

'While we're always a bit dubious when our fave books are made into movies, The Maze Runner nails it and sticks a cherry on top for good measure. Dylan's amazing in the lead role ... and we were literally on the edge of our seat the entire time.' SUGARSCAPE

'... as someone who hasn't read any of the books but was gripped from the get-go, it feels like another hit.' THE TELEGRAPH
