A teenage girl is annoyed that her mother is going to take in a lodger. An excellent book to help people see the positive sides of handicaps, and the kind of prejudice that is often suffered. Well-written and thought-provoking.

Oh my heart! I loved this book! Was disappointed to find I'd come to the end!

I first read this book a long time ago and I loved it just as much now as I did then. Not your typical YA book. Although very British, the romance is so sweet and actually appropriate for young people to be reading. Will be reading the sequel again soon.

It is a wonderful book and I enjoyed it as much today as I did as a teenager. It's a fantastic story and Abe is utterly delightful.
