Critics Review
‘An evocative and gutsy new voice.’ * Tara June Winch *
‘A devastating exploration of first love, loss and the perilous work of growing up…. Readers who loved Angie Thomas’s The Hate U Give will appreciate the unflinching examination of cultural identity and racism, while fans of John Green’s The Fault in Our Stars will recognise first love with devastating stakes.’ * Books+Publishing *
‘A heartfelt exploration of love, loss and relationships… I would strongly recommend this book to kids 14+’ * Eadie, bookseller, 16 years old *
