Critics Review
Elegant and empathic […] a portrait of how it feels to be young, brazen and terrified
Bess’s narration is neither bitter nor self-pitying. Rather, her pragmatism, and humour, make her a compelling protagonist * BBC *
Heroic and powerful, but also tender; this is such an important novel
* CHARLOTTE MENDELSON *So good I’m lying in a tepid bath because my 15 minutes reading turned into 45. What a voice * AMY BEASHEL *Elegant and empathic […] a portrait of how it feels to be young, brazen and terrified * Jessica Moor *I felt this book in my gut! It’s funny, it’s emotional, and at times definitely heartbreaking, but Bess is a hero you can believe in * JENDELLA BENSON *It’s not often that life in care is talked about, which is just one of the reasons we love this book * COSMOPOLITA *About The Author
