Requirements: ePUB Reader, 367 kB
Overview: I write YA novels and ‘grown-up’ short stories, drink lots of tea, teach creative writing workshops, have feministy rants on twitter and in real life, and read lots of books in various capacities (editor, reviewer, reader). Sometimes I consider taking up a hobby, like knitting or scuba-diving, just so I have interesting things to say in author bios. But who has the time?
Genre: Romance
Good Girls Don’t: "My past is a list of experiences. Not mistakes, experiences, and if I had the chance to go back and change something, I wouldn’t. I wouldn’t be me otherwise. But I do wish that the past would just stay put . . ." Good girls behave themselves. Good girls work hard. Good girls always do the right thing. Emily Keating is not a good girl by these standards, but she’s trying. She wants to help her friends – even if it means skipping school or kissing them when she probably shouldn’t. She wants to be a good friend to everyone – even Hugh, her ex, who she still has unresolved issues with. Even Lucy, her former crush, who’s toyed with Emily’s heart more than once. Even Barry, her dearest friend, who everyone insists she has chemistry with. But at what point do you need to stop sorting everyone else’s life out and find your own happy ending – even if that means hurting someone you care about?
Stereotype: "The sad truth is that I wish I were like them sometimes . . . the easy friendship they seem to have, the teenage normality that they all take for granted, that I used to imagine I’d have when I finally became a teenager." Abigail Evans on the outside: quiet. Nothing special. Not someone you’d pay too much attention to. Abi on the inside: aspiring poet. Always watching and analysing other teenagers. Determined not to be a stereotypical angsty adolescent. And wishing that the one solace she’s found for the dark thoughts swirling around her head – taking sharp objects to her flesh – didn’t make her feel like such a complete and utter cliché.
