Well I thought this book was one of the best I've ever read. The way Melvin Burgess tells of life in Bristol is so real. Ok to Gemma isn't the main charecter (even tho when the book was still in the writeinf faze it was a first persion of Gemma) it was Tar. That guy has been thro a lot of bull in his life. Me I'm 16 and usto be on smack so I can see where there coming from. But ya this is a great book.
