What They're Saying
Critics Review
Boys will be boys but will strive to become so much more in Luke Palmer’s wonderfully astute and truthful story. It’s the best book of young male friendship I’ve read in years. Gut-wrenching and glorious. Keith Gray; Profound, poetic, funny, heartbreaking and above all, real - every line, from the lyrical to the punchy, and every character rings with truth. Luke Palmer is up there with Melvyn Burgess, Patrick Ness and Anthony McGowan at showing us the joys, complications and fears of being a boy. Jo Nadin
