MEDIA REVIEWS
A natural storyteller...compulsive readingOptimism and despair come in equal parts in Wilson's child-centred contemporary dramasI loved this book. It is honest and sensitive and a really quick read - that's because you'll need to keep turning the pages to find out what happens to Lola Rose,and Kendall,and her mum...highly recommendedA truly great read!The fact that it doesn't end in a fairy tale happy ever after makes it more realistic because life isn't like that!
