LoveReading4Kids Says

Interest Age Teen Reading Age 8+ Edgy fiction, with strong contemporary themes, is the hallmark of Kevin Brooks’s writing for teens. In this short novel four generations of the Black family are spending Saturday afternoon in front of the horse racing on TV when the fuggy tedium is shattered: a beautiful girl, with a gun and a bag of stolen cash, bursts in. Fifteen-year-old Finbar tells the story and the focus seems squarely on the action. He may not say much out loud, but he lets the reader know exactly what the other members of his family are like, and it doesn’t take him too long to realise that the girl, despite her looks, is no different. There’s a twist in the tale, and it’s as exciting a piece of misanthropy as you are likely to read. Published by Barrington Stoke, it’s particularly suitable for reluctant and dyslexic teen readers. ~ Andrea Reece
