Reviews
Excellent story . . . from an author who, notably, has written unpatronisingly and sensitively about teenager's feelings * The Bookseller *
Tremendously moving . . . there's a real romantic animism about the book that will appeal greatly to teenage girls . . . both thought-provoking and reassuring, and it comes very much recommended by me * thebookbag.co.uk *
Elegiacally, and with great pathos and skill, Green charts a girl's passage from innocence to experience, from grief to acceptance * Financial Times *
The strong sense of place and season, together with Freya's own burgeoning sense of self, gives the book its unique flavour . . . Never has that sun-soaked, salt-crusted sense of teenage summer well-being been better described * Mary Hoffman, Guardian *
