‘Sherry is a character who gets under your skin. Normal of not. I soon fell in love with her.’ TIME OUT ‘A writer intrigued by life on the outside.’ THE INDEPENDENT ‘An antidote to the blues … this invigorating novel inspires self-belief and fortitude.' ELLE, France ‘Beautifully written with laughter in spades … an important reading group read. How far can you stretch normality before it becomes abnormal … It’ll change your outlook, I guarantee’ NEW BOOKS MAG ‘Creating distinctive character’s is clearing a knack of DJ’s . . . It’s a cracker.’ NZ WOMEN’S WEEKLY ‘A funny and endearing coming-of-age story.’ YORKSHIRE EVENING POST ‘Pacy, inventive, clever and accurate in the details, full of affection for its underclass protagonists.’ NEW ZEALAND HERALD I loved the characters and didn't want to put it down. It's kooky, very funny and – in a dreamy way – incisive about society. STEVEN APPLEBY ‘Connell has such a quirky, engaging style of writing that there are many smiles en route to the conclusion of this pleasurable novel.’ THE STAR (Christchurch)
