My favourite of Cameron's books to date with a brilliantly original premise, captivating plot and characters to fall in love with. It's also a timely and urgent reminder of the power of the imagination, the beauty of difference, and the importance of protecting everyone's stories from those who seek to silence and erase us.
Simon James Green, author of Boy Like Me
Sophie Cameron pushes the boundaries between reality and fantasy in this warm, relatable, page-turning story, full of sparky ideas and perfectly capturing the joys and awkwardness of teenage friendships.
Sarah Hagger-Holt, author of The Fights That Make Us
I'm completely in awe of Sophie Cameron's ability to find new, original lenses through which to view being human. This is another fun and compelling story about the joys and perils of growing up. It's fantasy made real and relatable.
Nicola Penfold, author of Where the World Turns Wild
A seamless blend of realism and the fantastical, written with Cameron's signature wit, heart, and care, with an eye on the big questions: how do friendships work? What's so important about imagination? Why are bookshops so vital? And, of course: is the Loch Ness Monster actually?really?real?
