Australia lost the war. Now Tess must face spirits from the past, the new boy in town - and The Wall.
Life couldn't get much worse for sixteen-year-old Tess Jones.
Her parents are dead. Her best friend hates her. She's stuck living with her horrible Aunty Jo. She's starving. And to top it off, there's a strange new guy in town who brings bad news.
But Tess's problems didn't start today. They started more than eighty years ago when Australia was split in two.
The Axis control the north. The Allies cling to the south. In between them stands The Wall.
When Tess starts getting advice from her dead parents and gains the strength to escape her life, she discovers an inner strength that was there all along.
The Wall Within is a story of survival, friendship, and hidden power - where one's girl's discovery could unravel everything.

Hope all of my details are okay.

Here you go: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...

Is this your first book in the database or do you already have some others here? There is at least one "Laura Morris" already in the database (https://www.goodreads.com/author/show...) - is that you or do we need to create a new author profile for you?

Hi Martina. That Laura Morris is not me. Could you please add an author page for me?

Thank you, Martina, for adding my book.
That other link to the other Laura Morris - that is not me.

This is my first book in the database.

Book moved to a brand new author profile - (Laura^^^Morris)

We use an additional space between the first and the last name to separate authors with the same name. Please do not attempt to remove those spaces.

(*The ^ = 1 space and is just used to demonstrate the number of spaces.)

Also please note that any new books by the authors of that name will be entered into the main profile by default. They will have to be edited once they are added to Goodreads to shift them to the right profile.

You can claim your author profile here if you wish.

Thank you. Can I also check if the Want to Read function is working? A number of people have clicked on it and it’s not coming through on my page.

Librarians cannot fix site functionality issues - that is something you need to discuss with Support

But it’s probably just lagging - the system usually takes a while to update, especially when it comes to newly added books.
