Rezensionen

"A sweet and touching tale pitched firmly at boys of an awkward age ... crashes and burns in amusing ways that sit somewhere on the teenage cringe scale between Adrian Mole and The Inbetweeners ... Redding's appearance gives the story a brilliantly irreverent edge." - The Times

"Earle is brilliant at capturing the excruciating realities of a teenage crush" - The Telegraph

"A novella with a nod to Sue Townsend's Adrian Mole books ... Marv's pursuit of his crush is by turns tender and toe-curling, perfectly capturing all the agony and awkwardness of unrequited love." - The Observer
