![]() Belly-bustingly funny, Bourne also demonstrates how constant, tiny pinpricks can bleed girls' confidence dry. * Books for Keeps * Bourne's political and feminist sensibilities occasionally come across as over-egged, but her snack-scoffing, wisecracking teen characters feel real and vividly alive. Bourne takes a deliberately risky attitude towards storytelling, as her characters do towards life. We have a voice and Holly Bourne's books are reason of that! Spinster Club forever! * Never Judge A Book By Its Cover * Bourne occupies neglected territory in the world of teenage fiction and makes a success of her undertaking. At the end of this book I felt strong and I felt proud to be who I am. * Jess Hearts Books * A 'turn of the century series', it has sparked such passion, honesty and strength. A thought-provoking, inspiring read that takes you on an emotional journey and makes you feel proud to be a girl. * Snuggling on the Sofa * A strong series ender, driving home the overriding messages at the heart of this series about feminism, friendship and standing up for what you believe in. I will be pushing this series into the hands of everyone, ever. ![]() Nominated for The CILIP Carnegie Medal 2017Ī powerful and inspirational read, and part of a true gem of a series.
