Book description
Girl, 15, Charming But Insane, huge bum, massive ears, seeks …
Well, seeks Ben Jones, but failing that, large Muslim-type burka
garment to cover her deformities.
Life can be trying when your best friend is a goddess, you are a
woeful underachiever, and Ben Jones won't even look in your direction.
Painfully spot on, Girl, 15 reveals with Technicolor precision the
agony and the ecstasy (and the embarrassment) of being a teenager.
With razor-sharp observation and deadpan humour we are offered a
privileged peek at the life of Jess, 15, charming, but most definitely
insane. This novel has a unique voice and humour that will make you
want to read it again and again - if you can bring yourself to put it
down in the first place.
