And Actually . . .

Product description My friends Alex and Sarah saved my life. They don't know that. Weird thing is, they think I'm the strong one, the one with all the answers, the guru. They rely on me. And I will never let them down. Two weeks ago, Alex had a baby, at seventeen. Sarah lost Shane, the person she loved most in the world. And, now, after dreaming about it all my life, I've been offered a part in a medical drama. Perfect timing, right? I'm not taking it. No matter how much my boyfriend Mark tries to convince me to. No matter how much Sarah and Alex do. I owe them. Big time. They need me more than I need this part. The character I'd play is someone I'd love to be - someone who never worries, who does what she wants when she wants, regardless. If I could be like Naomi, I'd be free. Review 'And Actually is a story about bullying and for anyone who's suffered, this will definitely hit a nerve. I think this would be a great book for anyone wanting to understand bullying better.' LUNA'S LITTLE LIBRARY'Sharp dialogue, realistic romance and characters so believable that they stay with you long after you've finished reading.' KISS MAGAZINE'Wonderful Dublin setting, and sparkling, fast-paced dialogue, complete with humour. (When Rachel introduces us to her agent, she says: "think Edna Mode from The Incredibles but tone it down a bit; she's Irish".)' CHICKLISH'Deegan gets into Rachel's head in a way that makes her sympathetic and not whiny, even when her life suck major balls. FOREVER YOUNG ADULT
