It’s throwback Tuesday in the Chester Chronicle office as staff revisit the favourite books of their teenage years to help celebrate World Book Day on Thursday.

Here they are - in no particular order

2. The Secret Diary of Adrian Mole by Sue Townsend
3. The Sweet Valley High series by Francine Pascal
