Review
‘The second Alice title builds on the strength of its predecessor. A story of the ups and downs of early-teen friendship and a dysfunctional family in the Jacqueline Wilson genre’ — Irish Examiner The Irish Examiner ‘A must-read for girls aged 10 and up, this has the Jacqueline Wilson touch, Irish-style. The best friends element is expertly portrayed, while the lows as well as the highs of the girls’ relationship are revealed. Another triumph … this is the modern, fast-moving and un-putdownable sequel to Alice Next Door.’ — Evening Echo Evening Echo ‘Portrays vividly that friend many will recognise: funny, smart and able to push you farther than you know you should go … rings beautifully true’ — Inis Magazine Inis Magazine ‘An excellent book to have in the library as it portrays life outside the traditional family setting, and also just to give 10 to 12 year olds the pure enjoyment of reading a good story.’ — InTouch Magazine In Touch Magazine
