Quite a cool book, the author managed to bring in many ways of life and those who lived them - managing to live in their ways of life very well. And I won't say what happens, but what does happen is treated incredibly well - it's never black and white, which is easier said than done. If you like a little drama mixed up with real life all set here in NZ, I think you might like this.

I’m not sure if I liked this book or not. It’s well written and characters are drawn carefully. There is an interesting sort of plot and I loved the NZ setting. However I found it slow and in places it lost my interest.

El prota se lía con una chavala 12 años más pequeña cuando ella sigue siendo menor de edad. Nada más que decir.

First part slow (& fairly irrelevant imo) but much more interesting once we get to the actual house guest.
