Seventeen-year-old Sunny's always been a little bit of a pushover. But when she's sent a picture of her boyfriend kissing another girl, she knows she's got to act. What follows is a mad, 12-hour dash around London--starting at 8 pm in Crystal Palace (so far away from civilization you can't even get the Tube there) then sweeping through Camden, Shoreditch, Soho, Kensington, Notting Hill . . . and ending up at 8 am in Alexandra Palace. Along the way Sunny meets a whole host of characters she never dreamed she'd have anything in common with--least of all the devilishly handsome (and somewhat vain) French "twins" (they're really cousins) Jean Luc and Vic. But as this love-letter to London shows, a city is only a sum of its parts, and really it's the people living there who make up its life and soul. And, as Sunny discovers, everyone--from friends, apparent-enemies, famous bands, and even rickshaw drivers--is willing to help a girl on a mission to get her romantic retribution.

This was a wonderful adventure through London as the main character Sunny races around London, processing her boyfriend's lies, decides whether she wants to break up with him and generally finds herself. Her internal journey is wonderful to watch as she thinks about her relationship with her boyfriend, with other peoples perceptions of herself, her mixed race heritage and other people.
I loved the little histories of the places that Sunny and her friends visited throughout the one night that this story takes place.
It's a really heart warming story that is gentle at every turn and takes the time to explain how one goes about finding oneself. I wish this had been around when I was a teenager! ( )
