I love anything set in England, historical or contemp, and this book proved no exception. In contemp ones, I especially like that most girl protags, even if they're fairly innocent, are more upfront about "hooking up" issues than their U.S. counterparts (think Angus, Thongs and Full-Frontal Snogging). I find it refreshing and more authentic.
AND...the winners of this month's How Many Have You Read/Heard contest are: Lori and Jaime. I'll be sending out emails later today.
What about you? Read this one yet? Any other debuts?
I LOVED this book! a great, fast read :)
ReplyDeleteI can't wait to read this one! Love Cath Crowley. Congrats to the winners!
ReplyDeleteSounds cool--Have you seen EXIT THROUGH THE GIFT SHOP? I've been fascinated with graffiti artists ever since.
ReplyDeleteWahoo!! This made my day :)
ReplyDeleteAssuming this is me lol. I totally assumed it was because of the name spelling :)
DeleteMeredith- Your comment about loving this author made me check out my library site...I wonder why she's listed as a debut author on Story Siren's PDF list when she had a YA out by the same publisher two years ago.
ReplyDeleteI just read about this one the other day too - sounds like a good one. I'll have to pick it up :)
