But for now I'm stuck in the d...u...l...l...e...s...t village on planet Earth, with a best friend a QUILLION-TRILLION miles away, not-quite-together parents, a pretend boyfriend/supposed thief/real bully shield, and an epic war with THE MOST UNFRIENDLY GIRL IN THE UNIVERSE. Whoever said "tomorrow is another day" hasn't lived a day in my life...

About the author

Hi everyone!
I grew up in the middle of England, playing in abandoned allotment gardens and riding my bicycle for miles and miles. My school and my local town had good libraries so I could always get hold of a new book to sink into.
I became a primary school teacher and taught in London, Yorkshire, the USA and Colombia, finally settling back in London about seven years ago.
I love visiting galleries and riding my bicycle around hidden corners of the city to see the interesting architecture.
My son, Ewan, is a student in Brighton and spends a lot of time living in a tent at festivals.

I loved this book! Cordeila's attitude throughout this book made me want to read on! Her parents are lonely and not sticking together properly and she has to power through it. She also is being bullied by a girl called Ruby and she has to power through that aswell. All in all, this book is great and I recommend it to anyone!
