Girl 16 Five Star Fiasco by Sue Limb

Dance anyone?
Review by TheMole

Jess and her boyfriend, Fred, have organized a dinner dance in aid of charity. Well, they are supposed to have organized, but so far they have done posters and tickets. The tickets are sold out but nothing has been arranged. Both of them are thinking there is plenty of time but the clock is ticking and it's time to start taking responsibility.

I found this story to be tremendous fun and I really got to know Jess and Fred. Without giving any spoilers I might also say I loved the ending, which is a bit atypical of other teenage chic lit in that the ending is not a lovey-dovey happy ending, but a real message to the reader.

I would certainly recommend it for young readers in search of something easy to read and light. Beautiful.

TheMole's review - 4.5 stars
Publisher - Bloomsbury

Genre - Teenage chic-lit

  2. There is a link at the bottom of the review so that you can get it from Amazon and it is a very good book. It is also available in the Kindle store.
