Another gem from David Hill on a subject that could have offended everybody but ends up offending no-one. The subject is teenage love and the consequences for both girl and boy of teen pregnancy.
Rather than thrash out the morality of abortion David Hill looks at the life consequences for both partners in this sensitively written story. But it is not just a story of teenage pregnancy, it is a story of music both classical and rock and roll, of friendship and of families, well told with a good smattering of humour.
David Hill has got the teenage voice just right and has a range of characters that are important to the story and believable in themselves. Kallum and Paige are the two characters that readers will identify with most and their relationship is what brings the drama to the whole story.
A book for teenagers but adult readers will not be disappointed.
