Girls in Boys' Cars

I don't know about this book, but I felt it wasn't for me, due to the maturity of this book, and also the characters and the detailing weren't that impressive. 6/10

Girls in Boys' Cars

This book was very disappointing, I thought I would enjoy it since it's a YA contemporary set in Australia, I didn't. The book starts off ok and intriguing, at first, I thought Rosa was alright. Eventually, it began to drag on and on, the setting was familiar but I couldn't relate to the characters.
The girls as time went on, became less likable.
After the ending, I'm guessing there's a sequel in the works?
However, I loved the diversity and the multicultural aspects of the story, it's nice to have a YA Aussie contemporary with multicultural aspects.
I just wish I had enjoyed the book.… (plus d'informations)

How much does a teenage girl have to do before she’ll finally get noticed? This was a good, current read that I think our students will enjoy.

No more boats par Felicity Castagna

Felicity Castagna has been gifted by more than one of the nine muses. She writes with such exquisite competence and mature insight. I loved this book which had, for me, the added benefit of a setting I grew up in.
