Author:Linzi Glass
In Ruby Winters' world, colour opens some doors and slams others shut. Her opulent Johannesburg neighbourhood is a far cry from the streets of Soweto where anger and hatred simmer under the surface.
Ruby can’t resist the blue-eyed Afrikaans boy who brings her the exciting rush of first love, but whose presence brings hushed whispers and disapproving glances. She might not see race, colour or creed – but it seems everybody else does . . .
This dazzling novel will entrance teenage and adult readers alike.
Anne Fine is an excellent writer with strong feelings where it really matters. Her latest novel tears into the whole tacky business of juvenile beauty pageants . . . Facts as well as fur fly as the whole silly business is brought to its knees
—— IndependentAssured and lively . . . A comical clarion call against the idea that girls should simply be decorative
—— The Sunday TimesThis ultra-modern tale sparkles and crackles from page one to a dramatic finale
—— The BooksellerAll of Fine's usual pace and verve
—— TESParents my squirm at the subject matter but there's no denying that this is a hilarious story
—— South Wales Argus
