Status Updates From The Boy in the Smoke (Shade...

Stephen Dene’s character is so dear to me. That’s one reason why I’ve put off reading this for 10-12 years. But Maureen Johnson was a saint and put it on Wattpad in like 2014. So I’m reading it now and I’ve already cried.

I am instantly sympathetic to the bond and difficult home life of a younger Brother & Sister. Gina is unlikely to be in the rest of Maureen Johnson's "Shades Of London" series, sadly. I love her from her first word. I wonder how much her Brother applies to the series. My guess is that this is the only story in which we see him as a 13 year-old.
