Recenzii

"an edgy and compelling narrative that will prompt readers to re-evaluate their own attitudes and assumptions." -- Kate Agnew Guardian 20080415 "It blew my mind! It's an extraordinary book - honest and tough, heartbreaking and cruel and it made me re-think so much." -- Wendy Cooling "Whatever your situation, this subversive and mind-shattering novel will change your views forever. Endless food for thought. Every young person should read it." Northern Echo 20080429 "This book is smart and honest, funny and eye-opening. A must-read." -- Starred Review School Library Journal "Wry, at times searing ... Readers will find this journey with Jean a rare privelege, as she rethinks her place in the world." -- Starred Review Publishers Weekly
