Follow Amber to America in:
HOW HARD CAN LOVE BE?
So I’m spending the summer in CALIFORNIA, with the mum who upped and ABANDONED me – and I think I’m falling for a guy guaranteed to BREAK MY HEART. This is a SITUATION DESTINED TO FAIL.
All Amber wants is a little bit of love. Her mum has never been the caring type, even before she moved to America. But Amber’s hoping that spending the summer with her can change all that.
And then there’s Prom King Kyle, the serial heartbreaker. Can Amber really be falling for him? Even with best friends Evie and Lottie’s advice, there’s no escaping the fact: love is hard.

WHAT’S A GIRL GOTTA DO?
HOW TO START A FEMINIST REVOLUTION
1. Call out anything that is unfair on one gender
2. Don’t call out the same thing twice
(so you can sleep and breathe)
3. Always try to keep it funny
4. Don’t let ANYTHING slide.
Even when you start to break…
Lottie’s determined to change the world with her #Vagilante vlog. Shame the trolls have other ideas…
“A book to press into the hands of every teenage girl you know.”

THE MANIFESTO ON HOW TO BE INTERESTING
Apparently I’m boring. A nobody. But that’s all about to change. Because I am starting a project. Here. Now. For myself. And if you want to come along for the ride then you’re very welcome.
Bree is a loser, a wannabe author who hides behind words. Most of the time she hates her life, her school, her never-there parents. So she writes.
But when she’s told she needs to start living a life worth writing about, The Manifesto on How to Be Interesting is born. Six steps on how to be interesting. Six steps that will see her infiltrate the popular set, fall in love with someone forbidden and make the biggest mistake of her life.
“Probably the best YA novel I’ve ever read, and that’s a strong statement to make.”
Emma Blackery
SOULMATES
Every so often, two people are born who are the perfect match for each other. Soulmates.
After a chance meeting at a local band night, Poppy and Noah find themselves swept up in a whirlwind romance unlike anything they’ve ever experienced before. But while the odds of this happening are about as likely as being struck by lightning, when they do meet and fall in love, thunderstorms, lightning strikes and lashings of rain are only the beginning of their problems. With a secret international agency preparing to separate them and a trail of destruction rumbling in their wake, they are left with an impossible choice between the end of the world, or a life without love…
“Warning: this book will demolish your heart as it has demolished mine.”
