I loved this book, but I have read some other reviews and they said it was dull. I fully disagree with this opinion as a lot happens in it. It covers big issues which teen girls go through, like bullying, boys, getting annoyed with parents and death. You really feel like you know both girls and can really see how close they are. The ending nearly made me cry! It is soo sad, and it leaves you feeling bad for Pearl and yourself as by the end I could really feel like I knew Jodie, but this really makes this book different to all JW's earlier books. I recomend this book as it is a good read and quite tragic at the end. Jodie is a great character,and Pearl get bolder throughout.Read it!
