Brie is in love with Lancome Juicy Tubes, Louis Vuitton accessories, and her gay best friend Charlie, who is in love with 1960s pop art, 1980s teen movies, and serial heartbreaker Walker, who has ever only been in love with his VW Bug, until he meets Daisy . . . who is too busy hating everyone to know what love is. Set in London, this girl-loves-boy-loves-boy-lovesgirl romp is set against a theatrical production of The Taming of the Shrew, and features enough on- and off-stage drama to satisfy teens looking for a beach read or a read all year round."

Review:

(of Guitar Girl) '...Molly Montgomery's compelling voice will pull in readers as she chronicles her quick rise to pop star fame with her band, The Hormones.' (Publishers Weekly)

(of Guitar Girl) 'Nice, pacy read and an antidote for children reared on Pop Idol.' (Dina Rabinovitch, The Guardian)

A funny, stylish tale of testing crushes written by an ex-ELLEgirl editor. (ELLE Girl)

Light-hearted and witty. A great holiday book. (mykindplace.com)

A wittily, wickedly observed comedy of teen manners! (Youngscot.org)

'Witty and pacy, the story deals with the complexity and confusion of teenage emotions. The use of multiple narrators adds depth and humour.' (Bookfest)

Within the interwoven stories, it is easy to identify with and care for each character in this fast-paced narration. (Gloucester Citizen)

A funny and enjoyable book about friendships and first love. (booktrust)
Book Description:
