GingerSnaps
Is Ginger’s best friend really her biggest rival?
‘You can make a wish come true, if you’re determined . . .’
Gone are the days when Ginger was an outsider, always on the fringes of friendship. She’s swapped puppy fat and pigtails for make-up and hair straighteners and never looked back – until now. Ginger and Shannon are best mates, but when they befriend lonely Emily, everything changes. Even the saxophone-playing boy in the trilby hat can’t help – he’s part of the problem. Are Ginger and Shannon drifting apart or can they stay best friends forever?
SOMEONE TO TALK TO:
Ginger and Shannon show just how tough it can be looking after friendships sometimes. If you ever need to talk to someone and your friends aren’t about then ChildLine are always there for you. It doesn’t matter where you are, how you feel or what you’re up to, ChildLine can help. They are the UK’s free, 24-hour helpline for children and young people and are always there as an extra friend, just in case.
Talk to ChildLine on 0800 1111. Whatever the problem is, you’re not alone.

It’s such a sweet book.
I have all of your books, and I love all of them so much.
I just love the ending of Ginger Snaps, at last Ginger came out of Shannon’s shadow and stand up for herself. She also gets together with Sam, and they are just such a lovely pair.
I love it, can’t wait for your next book!

Abigail, age 11
Gingersnaps, definitly the best of ur books although they are all amazing. As soon as I picked it up I couldnt put it down. It sounds as if Ginger changes dramatically and, on the outside she does but on the inside we still sometimes see what she really is like. I was very sad when i had finished it coz i wanted it to last forever, it was SO good
ABI..x
Megan, age 10

Amy, age 12
I thought this book wasn’t coming out until August thats why when I saw it today I bought it. I’m after reading all of Cathy’s books so far so i’ve been waiting for this day and now I can’t wait to open the first page and read another gripping tale by my favourite author.
Anna, age 12
iloved it!! at first i thought iwasn’t going to like but i really loved the story. what i love most is how often this would happen unlike al her other books it could happen to anyone. i have a best friend a bit like shannon but not really. it is such a realistic story.
Tasha, age 16
i’m halfway thrpugh the book and it’s meaning SO much to me. It’s hard hitting novel which makes you think about society and how people act towards each other. I love it and i hope the message lives on in the novel and in the people who read it forever
Bethany, age 12
Ok so I haven’t finished it yet, but your books are the only ones I atcually get to the end of now :)

Jazzy, age 11
Wow!TGingersnaps is a heart beating,funny,mysterious book with romance,drama and friendship filled into it!I loved this book and be sure to ask for Sam Taylors number!Its about a girl called Ginger who is a bit of an outsider but as she gets to comp she drops that look and swaps her piggy bank for mini skirts and her chocolate for shoes.Now shes cool with great friends,well at least that is what she thinks but then when Sam Taylor comes in and melts her stone heart Shannon is not the same!The boys normally like her not Ginger.Then they start tearing apart and when Emily Croft is used a ‘makeover project’ by Shannon,Gingers life starts tearing at the seams but then as the girls head into english a really cool teacher called Mr Hunter comes in and Shannon falls for him!He just likes all of his pupils but when she invites him to her party and he doesn’t bother with her then she starts making allegations up.Sam Taylor and Gingersnaps stick together os at the end they go out and leave Shannon as a has been!
Olivia, age 10
I love this book it was so gripping i could’nt put it down i read it in a hour! its the best book ever i love how the secret of Sam and Ginger’s reletionship gets out its so heart aching!

Harriet, age 13
I got Ginger Snaps the day it came out, and read it in less than an hour. Partly because I’m an abnormally fast reader, but mostly because it was EXCELLENT! Ginger and Emily were both great characters, and Sam rules! I want a boyfriend like him!
Brooker, age 13

Ali, age 13
I loved this book, it was great. i got it as soon as it came out and i read it in a night. i have read all your books and cant wait for you to write another one.
Cassie, age 11
By the cover of the book I already fell n love with it. I got so hooked up in it it only took me two hours to finish it. I especially love the ending when Shannon and Ginger are still friends even though they’re going their own ways. This is the best book I’ve ever read! I would reccomend this to people aged 11-16. I’m hoping anew book as exciting as this book soon comes out as I have nothing to read!
Quesha, age 11
omg cathy cassidy you are the best author ever i love your stories the first book i read was dizzy which i got free from a magazine and i loved it because i love reading about people who hav so many problems and i like to see how they sort it but my fav part of your books is when they fall in love. Thankyou so much for writing gingersnaps its sooooooo cool i read it in three days but i wish it would keep going…..love your books!
Harriet, age 13
The book was fantastic! I’d been counting down the days until it came out since I got Ice Cream and Dreams! The day it came out after school I rushed to the bookshop. It was the last copy there, I was sO LUCKY to get it! It showed me that its okay to be weird, especially when its really just being yourself.
Harriet xxx
Treacle, age 13
OH MY GOD cant wait to read it, i have been waiting for ages to read another one of your books, other books just arnt the same as yours.i am going to buy it at the weekend it is the first one of yor books that iv bought all the others were from the library.
lou you treacle
Grace, age 13
This has to be the best book yet. It isn’t possible that someone could be able to put down all that on paper, yet here she’s done it again! Sam is like a boy version of me (sounds weird, I know) with a narrowboat added on. I have great friends but I’m never anyone else with them than myself and I like being different. What sort of friend is someone if they don’t know who you really are?Gingersnaps is a great book for anyone who has ever felt like they don’t fit in, with a hint of romance thrown in.Fab* Loved it.

This is undoubtedly Cathy’s very best book, followed at a close second and third by Driftwood and Indigo Blue. Gingersnaps is an incredibly beautiful book. I was touched by it’s powerful message. The way she described the scene where Ginger ran into the woods (after she went down to apologize to Sam for being ashamed of him that day they went to town, only to discover their narrow boat gone) and caught a falling leaf and made a wish, and how the fox snuggled against her, was so beautiful. I can’t describe it, but Cathy made the scene seem as realistic as possible. I felt like I was almost WATCHING Ginger sitting there cry and then get back up on her two feet. That whole scene itself really stood out for me in the whole book, along with the two chapters going into Shannon’s wild party – I felt like I was THERE at the party itself! Sounds crazy, but it’s true. :3
Overall, this is a fantastic book I reccommend to pretty much anybody (yes, boys!). You will NOT be let down. This is one of the most amazing books I have ever read in my life.

It’s a shame my school library takes AGES to get the new books in, I’ve read; Dizzy, Scarlett, Driftwood, Lucky Star, Sundae Girl and I’m reading Indigo Blue at the moment. And then I just need to read Ginger Snaps I think! Well done Cathy Cassidy, another fab story. x

Emily, age 14
I got Ginger Snaps delivered on publication, but my mum said I had to wait to read it. So I snuck it into my room and read it. (Then got it taken off of me..) but cause I’ve red hair I’m getting people to call me GingerSnaps. But the book was.. amazing. It was such a good book. I read it, then read it again. Well done Cathy! and thankyou for giving my something to do with my time. :P

Ella, age 13
as soon as i got this book i read half of it before night! it is fantastic! whenever i read a book i feel like im a ghost watching everything happen, telling the characters what to do but they never listen. but that’s what makes your books better! never really knowing what will happen, because it’s unexpected!! brilliant stoy :P
Lily, age 9
I love Gingesnaps, it’s so cool, I really enjoyed the fact people could change as easily as Ginger could. And the book discribes loads of stuff. I would really recomend YOU read it. And don’t worry about being a slow reader!

Aoife and Eva, age 12
I Love This Book!!!
My Bestest Friend Ever recomended your books to me and I’ve been Hooked ever since. Somebody tell me where i can get some blue lemonade!!! And possibly a boy with a trilby hat for my Best Friend (Who is a red head, but I’m nothing like Shannon…)or me!!! I’ve even come to think of Sam Taylor as a fashion icon. i’m contemplating buying a pair of black converse and mixing them with the red ones i already own. You should seriously write a second Ginger Snaps book, and put me in it as a character!!! Or my best friend as her long lost sister!!! (that could actually work because my BFF’s (Eva) nickname is Redd. Ginger and Redd. You could call the sequel (If you write one)Ginger Snaps and Redd Turnips!!! Only messing.good luck with all of your books (And hopefully the sequel to Ginger Snaps)
Bye Bye!!! :-)
Aoife And Eva.
(Or accident and Emergencies if you want, hey! That would be a good idea for a book!!!)

Well, this has to be the best book in our Cathy Casside collection! I have got it, the hardback! And (shh!) my
ther likes it aswell! It was lying next to him on the sofa and he’s reading it.. Now!
It made me cry when Sam left.
I loved it at the end. A
true happy ending to show you CAN have friends that are honest and Fab! ooh.. and the ginger snaps recipe! (SP?)
It is a 10/10! For sure!
Caitlin, age 14

It’s amazing, i read it twice. I really love the way you write about problems. This book is a wonderful tale about being yourself, choosing friends and magical relationships. Keep writing Cathy. You have a brilliant talent that makes others happy by getting to share the happiness of being in your worlds meeting your characters. I believe that what makes someone a good reader is the ability to see past the words and discover a story. This book and many others of yours help do just that. Thanks Cathy! x
Helena, age 12
I’d just like to say I think that it’s the best book you’ve ever written! It made me cry at some places and laugh at others. So many people can relate to it and it gives you courage to do the right thing; even if it hurts. Keep writing because you’re great at it!♥

From
Your biggest fan
Imogen
I have just finished reading Gingersnaps, and it is my favourite book in the whole wide world!
I fell in love with Sam, as we don’t have any generally nice, quirky boys in our school, they are always showing off, and they are all so fake!
Rachel
I just wanted to say that I have always loved your books..I’ve read Dizzy Indigo Blue , Driftwood and Ginger snaps.
Ginger snaps was by far the best for me. Every book you write just is so much like reality. But gingersnaps is the most realistic to me.
And I really appreciate it. Not just the fact that it is amazingly writen and I cant put it down. But because deep down I can relate to it. Because I was bullied when I was younger and I can just relate to Ginger so much. I’ve always been a bit scared about my past..but this book jsut helps me to embrace it. Its what makes me ME now.
Sally
I LOVE GINGERSNAPS!! It’s the best book you’ve ever written, or better yet the best book EVER written!! I’ve read it twice already! I don’t know why Shannon doesn’t like trilby hats I LOVE them!! I’ve got a black one, a red one and I’m thinking about buying a pink one!! Ginger is so lucky to have ginger hair, I have brown hair but long for giner!! My favourite character is either Sam or Emily. I like Sam because he is so unique and doesn’t care about what people think but I like Emily because she is kind, caring and optimistic, she sounds so safe but is also quite daring because she dies her hair purple!! (I’d l0ove to do that!) Once again – GINGERSNAPS IS THE BEST BOOK EVER!!!!!!
Emily-May
I managed to get a copy from the city center and it was the last one! I have finished reading Gingersnaps and I Know its one of the top books I have ever read! I really like it when Sam Taylor comes and Ginger and Sam have love at first sight!
My other favourite part is when Sam and his Dad go to fill the petrol and water tank but Ginger doesnt know that and she leaves a message for Sam saying ‘SAM TAYLOR WILL YOU GO OUT WITH ME?’ And when Sam finally gets back with a broken foot and the message says ‘SAM U GO’!
Sonal, age 10
Wow! I absolutely ADORE Ginger Snaps. It’s one of my top three favourite books ever. And trust me, I’ve read a lot of books, but Ginger Snaps is by far the best!!

Gingersnaps is a wonderful book wich touches peoples hearts. Cathy is my favourite author. She makes my daydreams come alive. go cathy!!!! :)
Emma, age 12
I have got gingersnaps and it is a BRILLIANT book, and I coudnt stop reading it! It took me 2 days to read it. I think this is the best book so far.The characters in the book are really life like.
Polly, age 11
I loved it I could not put it down it was the best Cathy Cassidy book I have read!
Mariann
i just wanted to let you know how much i loved your new book, Gingersnaps.I read Gingersnaps in 2 days, it was so fab! It was everything a book should be:
Thought Provoking
Romantic
Sad
Happy
Exciting
All at the same time!
I especially loved Sam Taylor, he was really quirky and unique and didn’t ever let Shannon get him down. If only there were more people in the world like that!
Emma
just finished reading GingerSnaps yesterday! I get the whole thing about hiding behind a mask. Like in her first meeting with Sam Ginger has to hide behind a viel of hair (sort of) to get by, to make friends. A lot of people would say they wouldn’t but everyone at one point in their lives has had to hid behind a mask to make some friends, though most of the time if they’re really good friends the mask will eventually come off to reveal the inner beauty behind it. I love the way in the end Ginger realizes she doesn’t need Shannon but she’ll still have friends if she lets her go. No one in the world is worth forgetting your real self like Ginger did. And if a guy really liked you he’d like you even before you’ve straighten your hair or put on your make up. Like Sam and that Blue Lemonade morning on the boat. That’s why I like Ginger Snaps so much.
Janie Rainbow
I’ve got Ginger Snaps now ( I read it in 1 hour flat ! )
Ginger is a bit like my friend Rosie . She has ginger and everone calls
” Ginge ” She hates it but the other day at Camp she dyed it blonde ( I helped ! )
Her mums going to kill her … anyway I loved the book ( Sam is my ideal boy !!!! )
Millie, age 12

Carina, age 11
I have read every one of Cathy Cassidys books and I love them all! The most recent is Ginger Snaps and I think its brilliant. How Gingers confidence grew throughout the story was inspiring. All of Cathys chracters are relatable in different ways. I cant wait until the next book she writes.
Afrin, age 12

Amy, age 12
That book is AMAZING! cathy never ever stop writing, you r amazing!!!!!! That book made me think 2 myself, is this real! your gr8 cathy!!!
Leila, age 13
ginger snaps is one of the best books i think i have ever read ! I love the story line and Ginger reminds me of myself , The puppy fat and pigtails and sitting alone at lunch until secondary school came about and everyone changed. You always made friends with one person and thought you were inseperable until someone else came along just like you. The wierd boy everyone hates but you have a crush on. The story line is like reading a book that someone has written about my life ! I really love this book and also waited for ever for it to come out ! It’s a brilliant read and you also learn a few lessons from this book (: xx
Bianca, age 8
This Book ROCKS! I just finished it yesterday! I first heard of it when I read the back of ScarLett (that was awesome too!). I love all Cathy Cassidy Books!

Alice, age 13

Joanne, age 11
I have just bought Ginger Snaps last week. I read it within 6 hours!!!! I read 14 chapters without putting it down then I had to go for lunch then I carried on reading it and fineshed it. As I was reading it, it was compeating with my fave book, Lucky Star! Now I have fineshed it, they are drawing and I just CAN’T decide which book is the best! Best book ever!
I am so inlove with Sam Taylor! Blue Lemonade sounds brill too!!! I can’t beleive how great it is! Ginger is amazing and so is Emily. Shannon is a bit iffy but, she’s still great! Love the book!
Don’t EVER stop writing!
Tricia, age 11
I finally persuaded my dad to buy this book for me, and it was not a disappointment. I read it in about half an hour- i couldn’t put it down. This book- like every other good book, is like cocolate. You so much want to savour it, make every word on every page last forever, but you can’t help reading it so quickly and then wishing there was more. Very few books bring a tear to my eye, but when Sam walked away from ginger at the party, I thought I would never stop crying! The only thing that did stop me was wanting to find out what happens next!
Ellen, age 11
IT’S A FANTASTIC BOOK I NEVER EXPECTED SHANNON TO BE AS HORRIBLE AS THAT THOUGHT IT WAS MADLY FUNNY WHEN THEY PUT PICKLED ONIONS IN THE BISCUITS DID YOU TRY IT? I ALSO LIKED SAM’S GUESSES TO WHAT THE MESSAGE GINGER TRIED TO GIVE HIM.
THIS WAY OF TALKING TO YOU IS MORE COMPLICATED,THAN THE LAST WAY. I JUST HAPPEN TO BE IN THE BORDERS IN THE GLASGOW FORT ON THE SAME DAY AS YOU IF I HADN’T I PROBELY (DEFENTLY) WOULDN’T OF BOUGHT THE BOOK I WOULD OF READ SOMTHING THE HISTORY OF BORDEM AND INSTEAD OF BROWSING YOUR WEBSITE I’D BE DOING SOMTHING LIKE WATCHING THE PLANET SLOW PAINT DRYING CONTEST
Beth, age 12
I love sam taylors character i even went out and bought a trilby hat after i read it! It’s the best book yet! I loved it so much! I’m looking forward to reading all of your other books and all of those to come in the not too distant future!
Olivia, age 11
This was the first Cathy cassidy book I picked up, and I didn’t know what to expect. After reading this book, I now know this wont be the last Cathy Cassidy book I read. I thought this book was absolutely fantastic, and I am so glad that Cathy has lots more books out that I can buy and read. I couldn’t put this book down, and I was just sad when it ended. I would definately recommend this book to anyone.
Sophi and Mel, age 12
We luv ur bk loadz and cannot wait till a new comes out, Mel has met u when u came to upton hall for a book signin.
Ur dead FAB Mel wants u 2 write a bk on passion and OmG Sam Taylor, i wish he was real
Hurrz up and write a new bk!!! xxx
Claire, age 15
i know i am slightly older than some of your other readers but i dont care becuase your books are so amazing. I have read the extracts for ginger snaps in both ice cream and dreams and lucky star (which i love by the way) i was looking forward to reading the actual thing and i wasn’t disapointed i think it was actually my favourite book you have wrote so far even though i do love you other ones aswell. i liked this book so much that i actually read again once i had finished reading it becuase i loved it so much. Sam is a really character and i think the message in your book about fitting in and having friends is a really important message for your readers. anyway i hope you keep writing becuase i will definatley keep reading :)
Anisia, age 11
OMG!! This is the first of Cathy Cassidy´s books i have read and I thought it was brill! I got it when I was going on holiday for 2 weeks in the airport and i had finished it within the first few days! i was addicted to it! Wen i got home straight away i bought every other book written by her!
Beth, age 13
I read the back of the book and thought, it sounds OK.
When I read it, it was amazing! So much better then you think it’s going to be.

I couldn’t put it down after i bought it from the altimate friendship festival and knowing that my best friend’s name, Cassia was in it, made me read it even more!

It was that good that if you brought it out as a movie it would be the most popular…it would be bigger that Titanic.
Alyssa, age 9

I really bonded with the character of Ginger, there are some days where you just want to be like everyone else, but there is always someone who you can be your true self in someone.
Sam Taylor is an amazing character I love him because I have a love of music just like he does. Im reading the book for a second time now and I cant stip reading it. I hope you write another book like Gingersnaps soon!!!

Hi Cathy!
GingerSnaps is the best book I have ever read. Once I picked it up I couldn’t put it down. I love the way you make me feel like I am really part of the story.
I once had a friend like Shannon but after constant years of bullying and being her “puppet” who would do anything to please her I broke friends with her like Ginger did. I have read all of your books and loved every single one of them! I can’t wait for your next book to come out.
Hannah. x
Lauren, age 11
I think it is a great book thats really makes you think about high school and what to do and who to hang out with.My friend has read and she thinks the same.No book can beat it!
Erin, age 10
It is the best book ever. I just started reading Cathy’s books and they are the best books ever. I love Ginger Snaps. I liked the ending because I think Shannon deserved it. It not good for her ro drink at the age of 13. My favourite chapter of the book is when they give Emily the makeover. Also I like the party at Shanons house too. I feel sorry for Mr Hunter losing his job. Over-all it is the best book ever!!!!

Emma, age 12
I thought this was an excellent book! I read it twice in less than 2 days and I think it is the best book you have written so far! I’m reading it for the third time now and I’m already half way through, but I did read Driftwood and Lucky Star in between. The extract is good but the actual book is even better!!!

When I got Ginger Snaps I Was At The Cathy Cassidy Friendship Fest. i Didn’t Start Reading The Book straight Away As I New That Soon After I Was Going On Holiday And I Would Have A Lot of Time To Read It Then. it Took Me 2 Days Too Read The Book, ( And I Know It would Have Been less If I Wernt Doing Things As Well.) I Thourght The Book Was So Good That It Was So hard To Put It Down When I Got Told That We Were Going Out Or Going To Do Something. The Book It So Realistick (<< Sorry if I Have Spelt That Wrong):} Every part of iT I Could Imagine It Was Just So Fantastic ! ThankYou For All The Books You Right Cathy Well I Say Books They Are More Like Bibles For Girls Like Me ! x

Sian, age 12
Hi Cathy,
IM in the middle of the book at the moment, the way you describe the characters is very good. Especially the way you describe Sam taylor ( Gingers “crush” ) the book is very deep and on the 1st chapter where Ginger was talking about herfelf getting bullied realy touched my heart. This is the first Cathy cassidy book ive ever read and i am very impressed. I suggest for people to read this book,
Thank you Cathy
Chloe, age 13
I love all of your books. Indigo Blue is my favourite though. It has different twists and turns you don’t expect and it is really interesting. I have read Indigo Blue, Scarlet, Gingersnaps and I am half way through Dizzy. They are all excellent books and even just reading different blurbs makes me want to read them. So far it has taken me 2 days per book but I am so in to them I won’t be suprised if my record goes to a day!!!! Cathy I love your writing ideas and stories so could you hurry on up and write more books pleasse.
Amy, age 12
I thought Giner Snaps for a wonderful, heart warming love story.
It blew my mind away, and I will definately read it again soon.
I can’t wait to read your next book (HOPE THERE IS ONE !!)
Cathy Cassidy is the most brilliant author.
I lover her books the most I love anything.
And Ginger Snaps was a fabulous book that I recomend to any girl in Ginger’s position.
The high school part of it, I can atually refer to my life.
It’s not nice to be bossed around like that.
Jessii, age 11
i am in the middle of reading ginger snaps nd i luv it!! tha gingersnaps biscuits were really nice too. thnx cathy!!
Humera, age 12
It Was Brill! I Loved It! I Think Sam Taylor And Ginger Are The Perfect Couple!
Xx
Murphy, age 11
GingerSnaps is my favourite book eva , infact it only took me one and a half days to read it because it was soooooooo good
Its true!
Alice, age 13
I think that Ginger snaps is the best book ever !!!!! I read it in 1 day and i’ve re-read it about a hundred times!!!!!
Fearne, age 13
Gingersnaps was asweome. i read the whole book the day i brought it coz it was so good !! Loves, Fearne x
Jessica, age 12
I loved Gingersnaps when I first picked it up I couuld not put it down. Cathy Cassidy you are favourite author ever!!! You are so awesome!!!!!!!!!!!

Kara, age 13
I just got this book…
It’s really good.
Tara, age 12
cathy your book was really awesome! I loved it. PLEASE keep writing!!!
Sabrina
This book is my favourite out of all your books. I love it! It really taught me a lesson about being yourself and not pretending to be someone just to impress. My favourite character was obviously Ginger but I also really liked Sam. He was so mysterious but yet really cool. And he taught Ginger a valuable lesson too.
Amber, age 12
The extract was absolutely brill!! Can’t wait toget the book
Millie, age 12
I thought it was GREAT! To be honest I think a boy like Sam Taylor would be fantastic in real life. Pluss people like Shannon happen all the time so its realy believable. Gingersnaps gets 10/10
Heather, age 12
Gingersnaps is amazing! It’s all about doing the right thing and being who you really are and standing up 2 ur enemies as well as ur friends. Ginger is so afraid to express how she really feels and she tries not to bring up her sad past, but when her pushy best friend shannon gets a new mate nd starts to leave ginger out, she realises who her true friends are. And her crush Sam taylor is absolutely awesome! This is your best book yet cathy!
Eleanor, age 12
I think think book was awsome!! I could read it over and over again and never get bored!
unknown, age 10
well Cathy is my fave auther i’v met her and had all my books signed apart from Gingersnaps!!! i couldn’t wait to get the paperback so as soon as i saw it i got the hardback!!!
Laura, age 12
I have just finished reading GingerSnaps and it is the best book yet. I took it on holiday with me and i just couldn’t put it down!! Keep writing these brilliant books please Cathy!! x x x
Sian, age 13
I thought Ginger Snaps was fantastic, it really felt like this was a girl my age telling the story. I completely relate to her poor teasing, then trying desperately to fit in. For anyone looking for a good read, this book is fantastic.
Melissa, age 12
i luv it!!!!
its brill!!!!
it my fav book as well as dizzy!!!!
from your number 1 fan
mel
xo
Georgia, age 12
I absoloutely loved it because it was so touching and inspiring,i felt that i could relate to the character Gingersnaps because she used to be bullied because she was fat,and now she changed so i’m hoping(seeing as i’m going into year8)maybe that i could lose some weight because people sometimes bully me so i understan how Ginger feels.
Sohpie, age 9
this is my fav book iread it every night before i go to bed and i was very sad when i finished reading it. i wished there was another 1 that was a continue. ginger snaps is my new fav book. and cathy cassidy is my new fav writter!

Cathy what can I say? Another amazin’ book that you have wrote, Ginger Snaps was FAB!!!! I loved to hate Shannon, blushed over Sam and when shannon’s party spirilled out of control, I held my breath. Really funny, sad, happy full of emotion! PLZZZZZZZ write another book soon!!!!!!
Aniela, age 11
It was a brilliant story, packed full of romance, andventure, anxiety and awesomeness! Anyones book – such a fabulous read! A real page turner…
Megan, age 13
Gingersnaps may be THE BEST cathy cassidy book to date!! Could not put it down! I loved it so much I had to keep on reading and just finished it this afternoon! Cathy, Your writing is seriously addictive! You can really understand us and your writing just makes me feel Happy. Thank You for an enjoyable read! X
Erica, age 12
Wow. This is such a good book. Ginger Snaps is a book that many readers can share experiences with. It is about being different, and not caring what other people think of you, it’s about true friends and who they are. Have the tissue’s handy!-it’s really sad but with a happy ending.
Amanda, age 11
This book was the first Cathy Cassidy book that i have read and it is unlike anything that i have read before and it was amazing i loved it .

I am a big big reader and I didn’t think I’d ever find just ONE favourite book but after reading Gingersnaps, I fell in love. I have read each of your books 4 times each and every one of them, Dizzy, Indigo Blue, Driftwood, Scarlett, Sundae Girl, Lucky Star, Ice Creams and Dreams and GINGERSNAPS each give out this amazing msg to your loyal readers. Thank you

I won’t give away any secrets to readers, but I’ll say this: you would have to be terminally insane not to love this book!
Julia, age 14
As soon as I saw advertised on this website that there was a new Cathy Cassidy book out, I knew I had to order it straight away off the internet. (I now am a proud owner of all of them!)
Gingersnaps was AMAZING, as are the rest of them. I knew I’d end up reading it in a day, so I tried to take it slow, but I honestly couldn’t put it down! It was full of emotion and I could fully relate to everything that happened in the book and I felt really close to the characters. It is a fantastic book, with a great message: weird is wonderful!
I’d recommend this book to anyone. It is as brilliant as I hoped it would be.
Chelsea, age 13
This book is a amazing!! I just couldn’t put it down. I feel it is the best book I have ever read. This book also is a record for me as I read it in four days!! now that is fast.
I took this book everywhere with me in the car even walking difficult but still the book was good. This book captured every aspect of life and school the highs the lows and the laughter I would really reccommed this book to anybody!!
Thanks cathy for this brillant book keep them coming
Rachel, age 13
This book is AMAZING, FANTASTIC, BRILLENT!!!!!!
This book is the best book I have ever read, and I love reading, I have read heaps of books but this one is my fav, by far. 100,00,00 out of ten, I just couldn’t put it down. It only took me 2 days, It is my absolute fav book in the world. I have read it twice. I think anyone and everone should read it because it is just like real life problems.
Thanks so much Cathy really loved it !!!!!!

Aniela, age 11
I think GingerSnaps is the best Cathy Cassidy book yet, and if you have read any of the other books, then you’ll know that if if it’s better than them – VERY good, and it really is, so READ IT! Trust me! It is worth reading, and once you pick it up… you cant put it down! I could read it 10,000,000 times, and I wouldn’t get bored!
Abi, age 11
Wow gingersnaps is so good it is absoulotley amazing. I got it thinking it would be a laugh cos i am ginger too but once i pickd it up i couldn’t put it down its great. I thought that the story line was so good and i could really relate to ginger when she found out shannon wasnt really her friend. I felt so sorry for her. I fell in love with sam taylor and his weird religions and hats. I thought it was a really good book and i cant wait for another one to come out. Cathy is slowly coming my favourite auother (after jaquline wilson)and i hope she carries on writing.

Jessica, age 12
My first book I’ve read by you was Ginger Snaps. It was AWESOME! After I read it I started reading your other book Lucky Star. I haven’t finished yet but im looking foward to it.
Ginger Snaps is a good book because it shows how some friends actually are and you can find out how nice you are, by helping and old friend after her best friend left.
I love this book!
JeSs
Sofie, age 10

Amy, age 12
Ginger Snaps was definately my favourite Cathy Cassidy book by far.
I loved it SO much.
I was so hooked on it.
Usually, it takes me about 2 months to read books because I don’t get many opportunities to read books,
But this book only took me like 3 weeks to read because I loved it so much I made time to read it.

Sophie, age 12
WOW! Ilove the new book ginger snaps it proves that there is nothing wrong with being ginger and that you are who you want to be!
Hannah, age 11
Hi I thought that this book was cool I read it in a few days and i loved the names of Sam’s bands like blue lemonade after the things that happened with Ginger!!!
Alex, age 12
Ginger snaps was one of the best books Cathy Cassidy wrote it shows so much about friendship and how so many value it that they change themselves. It was a great fantastic book I couldn’t put it down and I’m eager to buy some more books. P.S. Im all the way in Aus and I think British writers are brill when it comes to making up stories.
Amelia, age 11
It’s the best book in the world!I love this book and it is really fun and easy to read. Cathy your my fav author! Keep writing!
Rebecca, age 13
I loved this book! At points i thought it was really lovely and charming and i felt really happy for Ginger for beating her bullying blues and re-inventing herself, but at other times I felt close to tears as the book was so moving. I would definately recommend it to anyone! I loved it and read the whole thing in a few days after getting it! Ginger snaps has to be my favourite at the moment but i will just have to look forward to your books to come!! Thankyou ! xx

Daniella, age 13
ginger snaps is a good book because this book shows you wat happens in this world with the bullying and name calling and also teasing people. obvisiously not every one is the same we are all different. So to me this book tells me that no one is the same and no one likes to be teased.

ginger snaps was one of my most favourite book. It had sadness, Happyness and romance . I loved the character Sam. He sounds so sweet!

It was wonderfu! I started it on the way home in the car at 2pm and was finished by 6pm. I was sad when I finished coz i had to wait for the next book to come out!

Janince, age 13
I read Ginger Snaps and I couldn’t put it down! It was really nice and I was totally absorbed into the book. I feel so sad for Ginger at some parts and it reminded me of my own bad experiences. But I don’t feel sad now, because Cathy Cassidy books always cheer me up and make me feel better. Her books are so touching. Hope you continue to write more books! I’ll definitely read them! :)
Sarah, age 12
Ginger snaps is probably the best cathy cassidy book i’ve ever read (apart from lucky stars and scarlett) it seemed so realistic and the characters seemed to come to life. i felt really sorry for ginger with shannon in the way of her relationship with sam. hope more books like that come out!!!

Gingersnaps is my least favourite Cathy Cassidy book as its not very magical. All the other books are amazing and i love them but Ginger isnt a cool, funky, kind character like Dizzy, Indigo, Hannah, Scarlett, Jude and Mouse. I cant wait untill you bring another book out and i hope that it is as good as all the rest of them.
Asma, age 9

I so agree with how Cathy Cassidy tackeled the issue of girls feeling insecure and being bullied and how you can change your looks but you cant change your inside!
Cathy Cassidy’s books have so many lessons in them and so many cool charecters!

Not only is this another fabulous book by Cathy Cassidy but also, I consider helpful in understanding when you need to move on. The tale gave me a boost of confidence that I needed to tell my other mates that were using me to push off. So thank you Cathy and I would highly reccomend it to all!

This was the first Cathy Cassidy book I read. My younger sister (14) told me that I should read it. At first I thought it was going to be a little kid’s book but I quickly got hooked and absolutely loved it! The issues explored are relatable and very well done. I totally fell in love with Sam too. _ Brilliant book for older teens as well as younger ones.
Serii, age 15
Wow. this was such a powerful book and i just could relate to Ginger so much i had a friend like shannon. and it’s awful having to choose and them blaming it on you when shannon started being mean i was quiet touched because it reminded me so much of my expirences and everything else. and i thought wow i would forget her if she is being this mean and then i realised its not easy is it? but im so happy for sam and ginger in the end and emily. :) even though they arn’t real but still… :)
Cathy Cassidy i never read books before and when i read the first one of yours i was like GOSH!! This is fab! and i was addicted just like that. can’t wait for any more of you book HURRY!!!! :):) xoxo Serii xoxo

It was awesome! I really like it. I hope you write more books cause like your books are soooooo cool. me and Ginger are sooo similar its kind of scary. Best wishes for your new books!
Tessie, age 13
Really good, I couldn’t put it down. It got me thinking about things like accepting people for who they are and not caring about what others think.
Dayantha, age 11
I thought the extract of the book was brill!!
Itotally luv Cathy Cassidy’s book.

Sameen, age 10
This is best book ever, no book is so good!
Grace, age 12
Ginger Snaps is an AWESOME story. It proves that no matter what your friends think you should always go by your gut thinks. I LOVE IT!!
Ella, age 11
I have only read the extract, but Ginger Snaps is in the school libary (hardback) but i am waiting for my birthday! my fav book is lucky star i read that last night!!! i love your books!
Summer, age 11
I just read the extract it sound BRILLIANT! I am sooo getting it!! I LOVE CATHY CASSIDY BOOKS THEY RULE!! =]
Lily, age 12
I thought Ginger Snaps was FANTASTIC! I’ve only just finnished reading it but from the moment I started it gripped me like a bee to honey or a chick to it’s mother, it was sooo cool and I have just started secondry school so it helped me to not worry and just be my self. Sam is really sweet and Shannon is horrible!!! Emily is kind but I would be really angry if I thought someone was taking my best pal, I suppose. I love all Cathy’s books and thank-you for my Christmas card Cathy,
Lily xxx-xxx-xxx
Samdinsa, age 14
This book is so good. I never had been like that before but i was someone ben like that before. Been alone is not fun and been popular is not fun to. But only e yourselves is more cool and fun. I like when the endding part where Ginger know whichis the right places for her. Friends forever should not hurt one and the another feeling. I really like it. It was so cool and amazing too.
Imogen, age 13
I bought the book from Tesco on a Saturday morning. My mother could barely get me to put it down for lunch! I absolutely adored Sam Taylor, he was a real character! I think that every girl that read that book probably would have loved to be Ginger! If I was her then, when Sam was looking fro a seat in English, I would ask him to sit with me. Also, when he kissed her on the narrowboat, I would have let him kiss me again. Also, on the minibus, I would have sood up for him, and also at Shannon’s party. But, if the book had been like that it would not have been as hard to put down, as you would not have been as full of supspense. I say, three cheers to Cathy Cassidy fro yet another brillinat book! Hip hip…Hooray! Hip hip…. Hooray! Hip Hip…..Hooray! And one for luck! Hip Hip ….Hooray! And one fro the ol man’s coconut! HIp hip….hooray!
Heather, age 12
Hi Cathy. I loved Gingersnaps! Im so glad i discovered your’e books thanks to my local librarys book group the first book i read was Scarlett for 2007 Braw awards & i fell in love with your’e stories! I to want to become a writer like you when im older and i hope one day i can capture whats its like for a girl growing up the way you have in your books! Me and my friends have passed Gingersnaps around and i think ive convinced every girl i know to read it! Me ad my friends Amy & Maria even came down to edinburgh to meet you at the book fair but we had to leave before we got the chance! We were gutted! Please never stop writing because you are way better than Jacqueline Wilson or JK Rowling & i dont want to have to go back to reading there books! From your biggest new fans Heather,Maria & Amy x
Bookworm, age 13
It is a REALLY good book, and advice anyone who love’s Cathy’s books to read it. The thing that confuses me though, is that while I was reading the extract (juts for fun because I already have the real book), instead of Chelsea Martin, it was Sophie Martin. I made me laugh, because one of my enemies, is also called Sophie!!!
Zoe, age 11
OMGOMG i love this book! its my fave cathy cassidy book, i have read them all!

Valentina, age 11
Gingersnaps was the best book ever. It was sweet and it showed how you make the wrong choices and right. It also shows that people you think are your friends aren’t always the cool but can be weird. I think that this is my favourite book in the whole wide world and i think you should make a movie of it.
Amy, age 13

totally the 2nd best book ive ever read (1st is harry potter which is very hard to beat) It has all the of the most brill characters & i love how it ends (i won’t go into detail to give it away) I can really relate to Emily’s life, not so much ginger, She seems to be alot like me before ginger & shannon ‘helped’ her. I agree with ginger though, she didn’t need to change at all!
Chelsea, age 12
ITS THE BEST BOOK EVER. i have read scarlett and that was brill. i have got ginger snaps and i am on page 80 chapter 12. SOON EVERYONE WILL READ IT.

i loved Ginger Snaps, i read the extract in Lucky star and it sounded brilliant. i love the storyline. it was great.
Rochel, age 12
I really love it because alot of us feel overshadowed by someone and never get a boy, a great part in a play, etc. But in Ginger snaps that doesn’t happen, it is actually quite easy to imagine yourself in Ginger’s position. Incredably realistic and a wicked read!
Sharmaine, age 14

Wow! I have read it 10 times now and I am reading it again. I have recomended Ginger Snaps to everyone in english and in book club! We even had a comp about auothers, and cathy cassidy won! wow wow wow wow! Read this book if you want a book of feeling, full of hidden secerets and girls going out of thier depth to be cool, to fit in. That is, until sam comes along. The sax playing boy in the black trilby and graffiti jeans changes everything-for good!
Daisy-May, age 11

I’ve just finished reading GingerSnaps and in was BRILLIANT! The last bit made me cry though, because Ginger left Shannon behind. Sometimes I’m just like Ginger and my friend/enemy Ione is JUST like Shannon.

Elizabeth
its so romantic it makes me want to be in gingers shoes but its really sad about how mean her dad is
Ellie, age 10
I used to adore the book until Wednesday 4th February, when a fox ate took 2 of my 6 hens. The ones taken were called GINGER and Gladys, so whenever i read the book, it makes me cry as it reminds me of the day when the fox got in.I love the characters and the meaning of it but not the fox, as i no longer like foxes.I like Ginger though because it reminds me of my gorgeous 12-week-old tiny little lady.The story is a bit like what my life was and kindof still is.I also like sam Taylor because he plays the saxaphone AND so do I!!!!!!!!I stil like the book but it reminds me of yesterday so, i can’t read it without feelig angry at the fox or sad because of GINGER and Gladys.
Ellie

it has stuff about like evrything, bullying and freinds and boys!!
i really liked sam taylor because he was really nice to ginger even when she was ignoring him and stuff!
<3<3
Becca, age 11
This book was great!
I like Sam’a and Ginger’s relationship, the way that he does not matter what anyone thinks! I wish I could have that attitude. Shannon was mean to Ginger and even Emily. Ginger did the right thing at the end but Ginger had lived in that scared eleven years old voice that I think she would have found it hard to stand up to Shannon! All in all it is a great book. It is amazing Cathy Cassiday!
Elizabeth, age 11
its so romantic it makes me want to be in gingers shoes
Ellie, age 11
giner snaps is the best book ever and i love it cathy came to my school and talked about it,i think all of cathy cassidy’s books are great but this is the best one.i can’t wait for the next book to come out.

Milly, age 10
I thought the book was OK… I liked it, it is not my fave, but it is better than some others. I didn’t like the kissing parts… I am not a big fan of love stories; but I saw the plot, and I liked it!
Rachel, age 10
It is a book about Ginger and Shannon who are best friends then another girl Emily comes along and a boy called Sam who everyone thinks is weird! A problem appears when Shannon does not like Sam or Emily. but Ginger likes these people and wants to be their friend but still wants to be friends with Shannon. Will Ginger do the right thing?
Coryn, age 11

Jessica, age 10
I thought Gingersnaps was a fab book! I loved the way Sam Taylor was always trying to impress Ginger. I hated the way Shannon always acted. I think that she was far to bossy. She was OK to start with but got worse and worse. I loved the idea of a school magazine. I was happy when Emily got a great makeover but felt she should have been able to do some things she actually liked. I love Cathy Cassidy books.
Eimear, age 11
hey!!! gingersnaps was brill. i love it 10/10 cant wait for angel cakes to come out. keep writing. love eimearXxX

Sophie, age 11
I love it. It feels like just a normal girl at first and then shannon, boys and everything spins out of control. My favourite bit is the party at the end. It was funny cause me and my bff where reading it at the same time and we said at the same time NO SHE DIDNT it was funny
Bethany, age 12

I absoloutely loved this book, not only because its amazingly written, but because it taught me something. I was going through some stormy times with my best mate, a pretty, stylish, popular girl like Shannon, and I could see she was heading somewhere I didnt want to go to. You can make some good and bad choices in friendships, and its MEGA important you make the right ones!
I loved all your books, cathy – keep up the fab stuff! xxxx
Eimear, age 11
This Book Is About A Girl Named Ginger Who Hates Her Name.One Day She Decides To Act Different, Careless. When she goes to a secondry school she never looked back at the horrible times. At this school she is popular, and cool.When she meets a guy named Sam she has a crush on him but her best freind Shannon thinks he’s weird.
Sammie, age 10
This was my first Cathy Cassidy book and I loved every minute of it.I am like Ginger as I have been bullied.I think it was great that she stood up Shannon in the end .I cant believe she had to hide her relationship with Sam from Shannon.There are some far fetched bits like Mr Hunter fancing Shannon and Ginger!!! Its a good book and I am going to go and buy Dizzy I think
Emily, age 11
WOW!! This is the best book i have ever read! With Ginger, Emily, Shannon and Sam – really good book!
Sophie, age 10

Ginger Snaps is an amazing book and that is why, when it was world book day whan we had to take in our favorite books i took Ginger Snaps into school! i love it as it is a real chick-flick and it is a book that i always get stuck into. even when i start reading it from scratch again i always get stuck in and enjoy it every time… it is suprisinly just like a real teenage girls life it is the best book i have ever read and it will always be my favorite :)
Alix, age 12
I got this book from my school library and couldn’t put it down! We read during registration in form time and English and for once I was sad about stopping silent reading! Ginger was really realistic, it felt like I was in the book with her!
Sophie, age 11
Well. . . I only read this book cos my BF said it was great and she was soooo right!!!!!!!! I mean it is the best book ever and I am now addicted to Cathy Cassidy books! Ginger is inspiring and it shows you the true colour’s of friendship and if you end up having to lie about yourself cos your afraid of what your Bf thinks then she is no BF at all!
Georgia, age 12
This was the first Cathy Cassidy book that i read and i thought it was brilliant it made me want to read on and on
Bryony, age 13

Millie, age 9
Gingersnaps was ACE!!! I loved it so much, I couldent take my eyes of it!! I was totally hooked. I liked the bit when ginger was with sam, and the fox came. it felt like i was acctually in the book.
I have read gingersnaps LOADS and it is one of my all-time fave books. keep writing more awesome books, Cathy Cassidy!! =D
Lydia-rose, age 11
I love the book gingersnaps it has inspired me for a story im writing on my blog page, sam is kinda random and Ginger keeps her secret locked up inside her shying away from it, shannon is never a good freind to her but she never realizes until she meets sam who is really wacky. Foxes are normaly shying away from you but i once had a fox that always came into my garden and looked at me continuely the fox in Gingersnaps reminded me of her.
Katy, age 10

Hi, I read Gingersnaps and in many ways, it can relate to many people’s lives. It related to mine and it helped me break up with girls who were just using me for brains or other things like Shannon in Gingersnaps. Also, Cathy Cassidy’s books just rock so, if you haven’t already, read it.
Kate, age 11

Sarah, age 12
Dear Cathy,
Ginger snaps is now definitely my favorite book i read it when we went on holiday to Austria this winter. Ginger is fab and Sam is a legend keep writing please your books are like chocolate you cant get enough!
Love sarah
Sarah, age 12
I loved the book!
I’ve read it twice now and now im reading a new book..
Angel Cake..
Your a really good book writer Cathy!
Tas, age 13
I thought it was a wonderful book! It was fab! I really liked the different storyline of controlling best friends, it’s something that really happens and it’s a unique storyline! But, I loved it! When people say your books are amazng, I’m sure they’re not saying it to be nice or kiss up! I think they truly mean it! I mean it too! They’re very down to earth and the characters are from different classes in society! And are different sizes and backgrounds Which is great and versatile!
Also, I love the fact that the characters are my age! It’s a nice feeling! And that the characters have emotions and dignity and aren’t pulled into today’s media! Y’know, your books don’t pressure girls to fit into society and the trend,they encourage today’s girls to be who they are and be good friends. Not many people do that and understand that. So, it’s really good that you do that, I think that’s what your fans mostly love about you.
Siobhan, age 10
this book is so good its my favourite cathy cassidy book ever and i would suggest this to anyone any ages.when i first started it i thought it wasnt going to be that good then i finally got into it and i thought it was amazing!!!
Afnan, age 13
OMG! the best book ive read in a veeeeery long time. the characters were so real, i felt sooo sorry for ginger. awesome book.
Caitlyn, age 11
I absolutely love this book, I’m half way through it and I’ve only been reading it for one day!!!
My favourite character is probably Ginger, because she is like me, I don’t get bullied, but sometimes my best friend can be bossy and I think to myself, ‘Is she a true friend?’
But I’ve realized that I have to be myself, when I go to my new school, I won’t try to be part of a popular crowd, I’ll be my own crowd.
L.O.L.(Lots Of Love.) Caitlyn
Tiara, age 11

Katherine K
This is a fantastic novel about a girl who has all sorts of issues and problems that need to be solved. Friendship is a huge problem for Ginger, but she discovers new friends as the story goes on: such as the mysterious boy with his large hat collection, and quiet, but now reformed, Emily, who completey changes when she meets Ginger and ex best friend Shannon.
This a great book for all Jacqueline Wilson lovers who have read all her books but are wanting something more to read about! I rate Ginger Snaps by Cathy Cassidy a 100% awesome!
Stephanie&Zoe, age 10
Ginger snaps is a fab and wonderfull book about two very best friends who are torn appart because of a very silly beanie hat. Ginger tries to help one of her old friends Emily Croft who’s just lost her friend and Shannon doesn’t seem too keen. Then all of a sudden Shannon is all focused on Emily and completely ignores Ginger. This book is full of suprises and twists especially when Shannon crushes on their new teacher. This is the best book ever! YOU HAVE TO READ IT!
Zhivana, age 10
i found the book really funny and moving at the same time

Chinchin, age 12
I remember the day you came to my school. i was in such a rush to see you that i forgot my bag. When i was getting my book autographed i just stood there quietly. A girl behind me was preparing herself to talk to you. i didn’t prepare at all. I really regret that.
I loved gigersnaps I haven’t tried the recipe yet. Giger is a lot like me. I love the book.
I want to be an authour. It is just that my english is terrible. I can bet I spelt authour wrong!
Mel, age 10
hi everybody GINGERSNAPS IS THE BEST BOOK EVER!!!

Embree, age 12
It was unique and 100% interesting. You never knew what would happen, and I really enjoyed the part when Ginger finally stood up to Shannon. It was really touching and the story really came to life. Although the ending wasn’t the happily ever after fairy tale kind, I felt that Ginger would have thought that it was enough!
Najiha, age 12

Please keep writing more amazing books!!!
Emma, age 12
It’s very difficult for an author to get the feelings just right, usually because they’re adults. Especially, if they write children’s books. Luckily for me, I can write as I go along my childhood be using my own experiences because I can remember them just as clearly as if they were yesterday. I was actually thinking of writing a book about a girl who gets tangled up in a friendship that she can’t get out of. That was before I read gingersnaps. But now I know, I’d never be able to write it the way you did. When I read Gingersnaps, I didn’t want to put it down because I wanted to see if you could get the feelings right. I’ve been in a situation where my best friend controls me and it really is hard to say no and stand up to them. You hit it just right because I know that once you’ve stood up to them, it is easier to walk away. In a friendship, it is so important that you get your way. I felt so sorry for Emily too because I’ve had a best friend leave after I’d known her for nine years. I wanted to thank you.
Lauren, age 9
hi cathy i think gingersnaps is a brilliant book and i am really enjoying reading it but there is just one problem its so good i dont want to finish it

OMG!!! “Gingersnaps” is soooo cool!! “Gingersnaps” was the first Cathy cassidy book I ever read…I got it for Christmas 2008. When I realised there were other Cathy cassidy books that came out before ” Gingersnaps”...I decided I wanted them too!

Suhaiba, age 13

Jess, age 13
Wow! This book . . . it’s breath-taking! I’ve read more than once and I’m STILL reading it. It’s a real page-turner and I love the charactor Shannon. There’s always a mean girl in school and the way Cathy has portraid Shannon is amazingly accurate. That’s exactly how I’d personalise Shannon if she were to be my charactor. This book is one of Cathy’s best yet and all I can say is: CONGRADULATIONS on giving each and every reader (especially me) the chance to read another of your fantastic books! YAY!!!!! X.X.X.X
Katrina, age 9
Gingersnaps is a great book! got it from the library and i absolutely LOVED IT!!! As soon as i read the first page i couldn’t get my head out of it!!!
Ginger has a great personality and a kind heart.
Sam is a weird but kind boy, he can be quite sensitive!
Good thinking Cathy!
Chloe, age 11
Best book i’ve ever read and it made me relise that some people that you think are friends really are not. So THANK YOU!
Mollie, age 11
I luv this book. It’s prob my faveourite book out of all of Cathy’s books. It’s awesome. i totally recommend it!
Jessica, age 11
Stunning.
This is one of those books where you read it twice and still want to read it again.
Lauren, age 10

Wan, age 10
This book is so intresting. It really very addicting! Cathy Cassidy books ROCKS!
Helen, age 10
This is one of my favourite books in the WHOLE WORLD!! It’s like totally awsome!! Cathy Cassidy is so articulate when she descibes Ginger’s emotions that I felt heart-broken at one point for her. Sam sounds like a real cool guy and if he was real, I would love to meet him. I’d definitely recommend this book!!
Katherine, age 13
Best book eva! I have read it 5 times! I love the cool and strange characters especially Sam. I keep wishing that I will meet a boy exactly the same as Sam. Absolutely the best book Cathy has written!
Amb, age 11
I REALLY enjoyed this book!!! It’s the best Cathy Cassidy book by far! It was so good i read it in one day! I’ll rate it 10/10.
Abigail, age 12
I read the extract and thought it sounded great so I got the book,, I really enjoyed reading it and I have read it through about 5 times! I have got all the cathy cassidy books so far but this Gingersnaps is my all time fave :D xx
Indigo, age 14
Gingersnaps was an amazing novel and a fantastic read!!!
i love how all the chracters fitted together. I liked it so much I read it twice!!!
Anna, age 12
This book is really good, I didn’t normally read books but I read Indigo Blue and it was amazing so I went and bought Gingersnaps and it was even better!
xxxx
Jemima, age 10
it is really cool and funny, it is the third book i have bought and i loved it
Amy, age 12
I think it’s great that you read about issue’s that are really happening in the world. All through my life I have changed myself to fit in, and ready GingerSnaps it made me realize that I’m not the only one. Ginger was an outsider, so was I. But now I know that it’s better to be that and happy, than change your whole self and not to be. I know Ginger wasn’t happy before either, but was she really when she met Shannon either? xx
Laura, age 11
I absolutely adored ginger and everyone in this book theres this boy called josh in my school that wears odd hats and plays the sax!

Charlotte, age 12
This book is amazing it just has star quality.As soon as i finished the book i just wanted to read it over and over again.It also made me think a lot, the things i thought were that i honestly think you should make this film into a movie it would be brill!

Emma, age 11

Zainab, age 13

Aimee, age 11
It was absolutely awesome I could read it again and again and I totally love Sam Taylor!
Cassie, age 10
I love all Cathy Cassidy’s books, but this has to be my favourite. It’s funny and I love the way Cathy Cassidy describes Sam, the boy in the trilby hat. I would LOVE it if Cathy Cassidy made a follow-up book of this book, I would love to see if Shannon pops up again, and if Ginger has anymore problems.
Great book! :)
Em, age 11
omigod this book is ace its the best cathy cassidy book ive ever read i love the way the story flows and doesnt droon on i love it at the end when ginger is happy with her new boyfriend and with her new best mate emily and her old bossy best mate shannon is now just her distant friend im happy how ginger takes it all and the way her boyfriend calls her gingersnaps GREAT BOOK!!!!
Jessica, age 12
i recommed it to EVERYONE!

Leanne, age 15
This book was so good i read it within 2 days. I just couldn’t stop! Cathy’s an amazing writer and a true inspiration for anyone. I can’t wait to read her newest books.
Bela, age 11
Gingersnaps is an amazing book. I loved it so much I went and bought it, I’ve read most of your books!
Sally and Chiara, age 10
Gingersnaps is a really cool and original book. A really good storyline and fasinating characters.The book is amazing, it ROCKS!!!
WE LOVE GINGERSNAPS!!!!!
Adejoke, age 11
absolutely got my head in the book
Tasneem, age 11
OMG this book was so awesome. I read it like fifteen times. I love this book. when I first read it I couldn’t put it down
Stephanie, age 11
when i read the title i thought of all kinds of things but thought it wouldn’t hurt to read a little bit of the book. as soon as i had read the first page it made me feel like i was in the book and i couldn’t put it down however hard i tried. i read the whole thing in two days. everytime you looked at my i would be reading gingersnaps. it has never taken me such a short time to read a book before. next i am hoping to be able to read angel cake. i am looking foward to reading it and i hope it has the same effect on me as ginger snaps.
Chrystel, age 11
I’m hooked on books and couldn’t put Gingersnaps down for a couple of hours. It is just so real-life and the realisation that what happened to Ginger and Emily is happening right now was pretty jolting. My fave characters (apart from Ginger)were Shannon and Emily. Marvellous book!
Jessie, age 10
it was one of the best books i have ever read and i am only on page 83!!!!!
best book ever!!!!
Chloe, age 11
i love ur book its realy helped me coz i was bulled to coz my hair and well ur books really insperin :)
Katii, age 11
I think Gingersnaps was good because it really captuered the view of how a bullied girl can change so much if she puts her mind to it. But it also sends out an important message – Be true to yourself, not your best friend.
Monique, age 9
I love the book! It is FABULOUS. I wish the book never ended!
Stephanie, age 11
GingerSnaps is a great read! Keep writing more BRILL books!
xxxx
April, age 12
This book was one of the best books i’ve ever read!
Probably the BEST from C.C, out of her books!
It’s a great story about, lov e and friendship.
Ginger goes through trouble and she has to pick…Sam or Shannon?
It has a great ending to the story too!
Emily, age 10
Imagine u r bored. Your mum says; “Lets go shopping!” what do you say? Yes. when you get to the shopping centre, you go past a bookshop. Your mum suggests you go in. What so you say? Yes. you walk past a book called “Gingersnaps”. Your mum picks it up. What do you do? You fall in love with the cover. And you take it from your mum’s hand and start reading. You are hooked. What do you do next? YOU BUY IT!! YOU BUY IT!! YOU BUY IT!!
Ginger snaps is AWESOME!!!!
XXX Cathy u r da best author EVA!!! Love, Emily xxx :):):)

Isabella, age 9
I think Gingersnaps is the best I could read it all day if I did not go to school.
Megan, age 13
‘GingerSnaps’ is my favourite book by Cathy Cassidy. I think I love it because I can identify with how Ginger feels when Shannon and Emily pay more attention to eachother than to her. Reading this book, I felt like I wasn’t the only one who was being ignored in a friendship. Another reason is that I love music, and Sam Taylor is my favourite character in the book! He listens to the kind of music that no one else he knows likes. I find that cool because I listen to a lot of stuff from the ‘60s, that none of my friends listen to! Once again, Cathy Cassidy has written another fantastic book that I couldn’t put down – thank you! xxx
Rachel, age 14
I love Gingersnaps. I really want it to be made into a movie. I’d love to direct one. I have the beginning I’d use in my head! Starts of:
Looking out over a sunrise and how the light falls through the leaves of the wood by Candy’s Bridge. A fox peers through the leaves and trees and wanders through. The camera wanders through the wood to Ginger’s bedroom where she sits as a young girl, looking out of the window sadly… I’d love to direct it! Anyway, this book is amazing! Well done Cathy! xx
Chloe, age 11

Sarah, age 13
Ginegersnaps is like it wa swritten for me i m goin through a really similar storyline in my life at the moment. It really atraunting.
Bronte, age 11
I saw an advertisment for Gingersnaps in another book and instanly wanted to read it. I had only read one of your books at the time and wanted more. Gingersnaps lead me on an adventure. It was so real that i felt like i was there and every sad or happy moment i felt. I found ginger very much like me. When ever anyone asked to borrow it from me i always sadi yes but i always felt that i understood it more than anyone else. I have read it so many times. If i ever feel sad or bored i rake round my book shelf and re-read it. No matter how many times i read it i alway read or find out something i missed or couldnt rermember from before. I really hope Cathy will carry on writing. Even if its hard she really makes some people really happy.
Gabbie
LOVE the book! I especially like how in the end Ginger figures out who her real friends are and finally learns to be herself. Oh, and Sam Taylor is SO AWESOME!!!!! Go Cathy!
Abbie, age 10
WOOOW!
I love this book.Its my fave.The storyline is just perfecto.:) What i find wired is there are different covers for gingersnaps?!?Why is that.Oh well anyway the only thing im gonna say 1 thing to work on….NOTHING!Keep up stories like gingersnaps.It will make you a star.(You are already)
thanks!xoxo
Emma, age 12
Cool, awsome, everything in between. Gingersnaps learns you so much about true friendship!!
It Rocks
Erin, age 12
I think every girl in year 8 should read this it really makes you think about your friends and who you are. Everyone can relate to this book from any of the great characters views. It helped me make new better and real friends and is a great thought provoking read.
Sonia, age 15
I love this book it’s soo nice it’s like the up’s and down’s alot off girls sorta face!.
I litrally wouldnt put it down until i finshed it and then i kept re-reading it.
Sharon, age 11
My parents always tell to be myself. That’s the most important thing. But some people just want to be the MOST OUTSTANDING. Why? What’s so great about being the FIRST? I don’t understand, but I reckon they might have a reason that i won’t be able to understand, just like Ginger.
NicC, age 12
It was so realistic.I had mixed feelings about what Ginger had to go through,though I’m certain about one thing;I LOVED IT.it’s one of those books which give people inspiration.To write,I mean.Lots of new ideas can be created from that one book.
Mayla, age 13
OMG! iluv sam taylor!

Ruby, age 11
I loved it, It was sooo AWESOME! But, Shannon was kinda mean i’d hate to have a friend like her, it took me about 2 weeks to read it.
once i’ve finished reading all of Cathy’s books I’m going to read them again.
Thanks Cathy keep writing more books…..
XxXx OoOo
Ruby
Rachie-Rach, age 11
I bought your book GingerSnaps in the school holidays and I couldn’t put it down! The start was a bit sad as you read about Ginger having no friends and getting bullied at school, but appart from that, it was fantastic. It was a humorous and well-written high school story with lots of unpredictable twists and turns. Can’t wait to see how it ends! :o)
Lucy, age 9
i think this is the best book ever i have just finished the book i’m glad ginger isn’t friends with shannon when i first heard of shannon i knew the friendship wouldn’t last. BEST BOOK EVER!!!!!
Katy, age 11

Nina, age 10
Ginger used to be a loser. Then she gets a makeover from her sister Cassie. When she goes to high school, she instantly makes friends with cool girl, Shannon. In year eight, they befriend Emily and Sam. Will it ever be the same again?
Gingersnaps is hilarious. It has everthing; Boys, Best Friends, Bullying and Brilliant Teacher!
Sophie, age 11
Gingersnaps is my favourite Cathy Cassidy book. It kind of reminds me of my life in a way (Although, Foxes and sax-playing boys are not exactly in the story!).
My favourite character is Ginger. I can totally understand her point of view on things. I know if I was in all those suituations, I’d be thinking the exact same thing.
Love you Cathy,
Keep writing

It has some interesting but informative facts on bullying and falling in love with the “wrong” boy.I liked the recipe in the back on making ginger snap cookies, too!
Your book, Ginger Snaps, I thought was a success! It was fantastic, and of course, magical.

Wow!!I didn’t imagine Cathy would write a book sooo great!!! I just think that maybe Ginger might just be better if she was thinner or something.Then Chelsie,Jenna,Carly,and Faye won’t bully her too much…
Amy, age 12

I don’t noramally read books but I got Scarlett free from school and I loved it so much I got Ginger Snaps at which was really good. I now hope to read Dizzy!!!
Olivia, age 10
Gone are the days when Ginger was an outsider, always on the fringes of friendship. She’s swapped puppy fat and pigtails for make-up and hair straighteners and never looked back – until now.
Ginger and Shannon are best mates, but when they befriend lonely Emily, everything changes. Even the saxophone-playing boy in the trilby hat can’t help – he’s part of the problem . . .
Are Ginger and Shannon drifting apart or can they stay best friends forever?
Dear Cathy i have got all of the books that you have written and i am reading Lucky Star at the moment. i enspire you in your books!!
I am your biggest FAN!!
Mariah, age 12

India, age 11
I brought the book out of the school library- I had heard of Cathy Cassidy before, but I hadn’t tried any of her books. I managed to finish Ginger Snaps in a day and it was the best book I’d read in my life! I would really recommend it… BLUE LEMONADE!!

Ginger Snaps has to be my fave book. I absolutely adore Ginger, Emily and Sam. I love the reading over and over about Shannon’s party and how everything falls apart. When I first read that, I almost cried when Sam and Ginger had had that misunderstanding. The bit about the foxes was seriously magical.
I love your books Cathy!

Catrin, age 9
Ginger Brown….. A quiet, self-conscious girl who has moved on from little-girlish puppy-fat and pigtails and gained a pushy, stroppy best friend and has a more or less normal life.That is, until Sam Taylor came.He helped Ginger realise that sometimes you think you have a best friend,but until someone helps you realise that actually,they’re your worst enemy, you’ve chaged.And sometimes you can NEVER go back.
Beth, age 13
this and lucky star are the best books u have written by far. but the ginger snaps is so imaginative and with the descriptions of the carectors and every thing you actually feel like you are in this book. both lucky star and ginger snaps took me all of 2 days to read them. now cathy cassidy is the only outher i will read.
also sory about ma spellings xxx
Jessica, age 10

Rosie, age 9
Ginger Snaps is sooo cool i am half way through and I can not stop reading it my little cousins want to play with me but I just want read Ginger Snaps and it sort of describes my life with my best friend! you are the best author ever!!!!!
Bee, age 11
Ginger has an unusual name like me, Bee. But unfortunatly i dont have wings or stripy skin so it isn’t bad but for Ginger well it explains it itself. She tries to fit in the incrowd but doen’t realise the consequences and finds herself extremely jealous of Emily Croft, a pupil from her last class in primary. Has jealousy got thebetter of Ginger or does it help her to move on even more??? Bee x

Yudi, age 13
5 stars for the book:)
K, age 12
Gingersnaps is one of those books – a dish of romance,comedy and meaning, mixed with something that makes you want to read on. I found it one of the best books CC has written to date! I found myself in a similar three’s-a-crowd situation, but soon sorted it all out and now I’ve kinda got the happy ending I hoped for – minus the drop-dead-gorgeous boy with a trilby hat, which I’m still searching for…
Zara, age 11
Well what can i say about this book exept I LOVE IT .I love the romance and how she doesn’t care what people think of her Ginger is an insperation to everyone and i love her charecter it is as if she is a real person .
Clara, age 9
Its a really cool book in my opinion!It is my favourite book.
Charlotte, age 10
Cathy, I luv your book!!!
I luv how much it relates to real life teen problems!!!I couldn’t put the book down and have already read it a
Mazza, age 12
Gingersnaps is the coolest book ever!!!! It’s so good!!!! It’s the kind of book that my age group could relate to and it is so entertaining! I never wanted to put the book down!!!! Cathy Cassidy you are the greatest author ever!!!! I’M SERIOUS!! I love your books!!!! They are the best ever!! I don’t think I have said how much I really do love it!!!! Thank you so much for giving the public your stories to read, they are the greatest books ever!!!
Niamh, age 10
I really connected with this book. I am currently in the position that Ginger was in near the middle of the book, were her friendship with Shannon was falling apart…
I can’t wait until you start another book!
Melissa, age 11
I Love this book.
Even though I never got to read it any chance I get of buying It Im going to.
Im not much of a reader,because there aren’t alot of books that are interesting to me.But I love to write,and If I find a good book I always take part of it and create it into my own.Your books are awesome,because they relate to everyday life – I read Shine on daizy star too,The only thing I couldn’t relate to is I know That my dad wouldn’t go for a sail over the world,there’s so much I could say about your books,but I’d be too long,they’re too awesome.
Niamh, age 11
it was da best book ever !!! i could not put it down !
Maaike, age 11

Bedoor, age 10
I really liked the nearly end part it was kind of cool though but the BIG drama is when Ginger and shannon broke up friends. actually Gingersnaps is my favourite book now. Ginger used to be just like me in my old school, friendless Like her used to be and lonley I really am lucky like Ginger that I had friends at the end like Ginger I actally I feel like Ginger and acted like her your books are the best Cathy you sure are creative!Love from your biggest fan Bedoor. xxxx
Kisty, age 12
I love Cathy Cassidy books,a lot of them touch me deeply. My favourite of them all,however,has to be this one,GingerSnaps.
Reading it was like watching a romantic movie in my head (and I love romance movies)
The way the scenes,emotions and people were described were so close to reality,even though I don’t think reality could be that perfect giggle
I treasure this book most of all amongst my Cathy Cassidy collection. It is my favourite,along with Driftwood.
Good job Cathy,and continue writing wonderful books.
Rebecca, age 11

Seneisha, age 12
This book has been such an adventure for me. Ginger is such an amazing person that I have ever met. This book has been a example to be a better friend to all my friend’s. Thanks Cathy for writing such an good book. This is my favourite book of all the books you wrote.
Laura, age 11
My fave book ever is Angel Cake but I really liked Gingersnaps because I was in the same position as Ginger. My best friend was cool and everyone liked her. But then another girl came into the friendship and my bff was horrible to her but i was nice. my bff always bossed me about and reduced me to tears. I finally got the courage to stand up to her and end the friendship after reading Gingersnaps. Thanks xxx P.S – I have heaps of TRUE friends now who likes me for who I am .
Molly, age 11
I loved it – I sat in the loft for hours reading it!
Saeeda, age 12
I love this book! It says everything that a normal teen goes through, and i love it when ginger and sam have their first kiss! so exiting!
I love Sam, very weird but he is amazing!

Efua, age 13
This book was fantastic I absolutely loved it. I liked this book because it taught me the meaning of friendship and how friendships won’t last forever but your family will always be there for you. This book also is good for girls who want to regain their confidence and be themselves. You are now my favorite author and I can’t wait to read the rest of your books.
Charlotte, age 10
Gingersnaps is amazing, the best book yet, my favourite bit is when Shannon has the party, and when Sam forgives Ginger, your books are fab, and you have made me want to be a writer.
Rebecca, age 11
WOW. My word to desribe Gingersnaps: WOW. Ginger takes you an emotional journey through being bullied, making a friend and changing herself: inside and outside. I loved reading gingersnaps and would TOTALLY recommend it to everybody. It is a fab book and a great joy to read. It shows you that you are who you are, you can’t run away from that.
Orlena, age 12
OMG cathy your amazing its funny cool shocking an more i love this book so much it got me thinking and daydreaming so much i wanna be a writer when i’m older and you have especially inspired me soo much im not gonna give up in yr.9 im gonna try harder and harder and fulfil my dreams shannon reminds me of a best friend i use to have but we’re not friends and the problem hasn’t been sorted out but it doesn’t matter me and ginger weren’t ment to be friends with our new haters but cathy KEEP on wtiting because your my number 1 WRITER xxxxx

Stephie, age 11
I think this book is utterly fantastic and it shows that you should just be yourself… Who cares is you’re different?
Emma-May, age 11
Gingersnaps is my secound fave book! Angel Cake’s my first. But this book was the main inspiration of my writing. It’s not too “Jacqueline Wilson” and it’s not to boring. I don’t really like it when Jacqueline Wilson put’s all the useless details like “groves on my soft hands”. I find it really annoying. But all your books have the perfect measure!!!!
Christie, age 11
I love this book its the best i have just finished it and i aonly started it 3 days ago i could not put it doen its great and everybody should read it xx
Natalie, age 10

I just finished this book (on the Flips DS Game) and I think it’s one of your best. I love the drama between Shannon and Ginger, and the surprise twist with Mr Hunter (or should I say, Steve) and the picture, I wasn’t expecting that at all! Once again, thanks for another amzing book, this is ranked thrid in my list after Dizzy and Lucky Star. xx
Samantha, age 10
I read this book all in one day. It was really good. It shows how freindships can change so easily. It says to always be yourself, weather deep down you are the cool, popular kind, or the weird but fun, geeky kind….
It a really awesome book! You have to read it!
Megan, age 10

Kimberley, age 13
gingersnaps is a fab book. ginger thinks shannon is her best friend, but if she was her best friend she would let her be herself,she would let her be with sam and she definitely not frame her. cathy cassidy is a brillant authour. i cant wait to read more.

Megan, age 11
I absolutely adore this book. It is so amazing. The characters are so realistic and believable, and by the time you’re finished you’re crying about the fact there isn’t a gorgeous saxophone-playing, trilby-hat wearing boy in YOUR class at school! 10/10, best book ever!
Anna, age 9

Corinne, age 10
Gingersnaps shows how you think you have found a friend but mabye she/he is just someone to be with until you find real friends to help and support you through good and bad.
It is a heart-warming story full of compasion but as new friends come old one’s get moved out the way and how as Emily joins them she helps Ginger realise that she wasn’t a geek or a loser she was merley a girl being picked on and bullied. Which brings on flashbacks. Ginger struggles with having a secret boyfriend, her past which she has kept tied up starts unravalling and new friends getting close with Shannon.
I love Gingersnaps and I hope whoever reads it will too!
Sara, age 11
this is such a good book i love it soo muchh

Izzy, age 13
I borrowed Gingersnaps from my local library and started to read as soon as i got home( i think!) and got stuck in straight away. It was so intresting, and the story line was great, showing how Ginger really longs to be her true self and goes on a journey to discover who her real friends are. I think it was brilliant and enjoyed it hugely. The book is deeply involving and i’m sure others would enjoy it as much as i did. In fsct, i enjoyed it so much i had it finished in just 3 days! I would reccomend it to any Cathy Cassidy fans. A great book, one of my faves.
Zainab, age 12

character is Nisha. Cathy you
are my favourite author ever!
Your books are very good!
Suzi, age 11
I loved this book-one of my favourites. I love the real-life feel of some bits especially. Shannon’s party was so like a real life teen party, that it felt like you could reach out and touch it! The book definatly captures a real-ife,possible situation-a lot of girls could be in this same situation. I wasn’t sure about the book at first, but it has turned into one of my favourites!
Madz, age 11
My teacher told me to only read a couple of pages a day, but with this book, I’m turning page after page! It’s an outstanding read and I wanted to read more! Make a sequel to Gingersnaps!!! x

I really thought that it was a lovley book and i new ways that i could relate to the story line! Cathy you are a wonderful writer ( i bet that you’ve heard those words millions of times) and i want you to keep up the fantastic work! lotd of love from Natalie:)

Jessica, age 11
Wow! The book was just super and i read it until my eyes ached and then i still kept reading! I think Sam Taylor was a great character as he was different from the other boys in Gingers year, but he was cute too! It’s great how Ginger manages to make friends with Emily Croft, and it all ends happily! Wonderful book, one of my favourites.
Cathy rocks!
Cassie, age 13

Do you think you’ve ever found the perfect friend? ginger does, but when she and shannon befriend lonely emily gingers life is in a whirl of lies, deception, love, floaty, jazzy saxophone music and the boy with the trilby hat!!!!!
Shannon, age 11
Gingersnaps is a book all girls can relate to about boys they like but are weird and embarassing and the sometimes best friends forever are not always forever x
keep on writing books cathy i can ony relateto your books keep on writing
luv u a million and 1
shannon xx
Steph, age 11
OMG!this book is one of the best i have ever read! My uncle bought me all your books for my birthday and then i bought gingersnaps and read it in 4 days! i couldnt put it down! I so want a sam in my life!
Brooke, age 11
Gingersnaps is my favorite book I have EVER read! It is so addictive, I read it in two nights! The characters all have feelings I can relate to and I love books that keep you wondering…
Sue, age 9
OMG Cathy!!!!
THIS IS Super CUTE, FUNKY&COOL. PLEAZZE nvr stop writing!!
LOVE YA!!!
Sue, age 9
OMG! This is SUPER KEWL and super hot. I love this book! It’s full of glam and excitement. I always read it. :)
Alice, age 13
I really can’t say this is my favorite book, because all of your books are amazing, but I really identified with Ginger, even though we’re completely different in reality! I loved the element of the saxophone, because I play one too, and I really love it when they are portrayed as cool and jazzy, because some people think saxophones are boring. They’re really not, though! Emily is such a sweet character and I felt so bad for her at the beginning of the book. I don’t know what I would do without a best friend! Even though I know what people like are Shannon are like, I know that I secretly want to be her, or be friends with her, just to see what it’s like being nearly the most popular girl in school. Sam is the coolest character in this book, though. The only thing I don’t like is that in my experience, boys like Sam just don’t exist,and if one did, he wouldn’t notice me. But I love your book, its the kind you can’ put down, as always!!!(: xXx
Ebony, age 11
I loved this book I first read it in the school holidays when I read 14 books mainly by Cathy Cassidy this book shows and tells kids from11 and up to juast be yourself.
Tabby, age 12
W.O.W I completely and UTTERLY love Ginger Snaps- as I have loved all your other books. They all make you smile in their own sort of way… but the prize that goes to the book that put the biggest smile on my face is…Ginger Snaps by Cathy Cassidy!!!
I think that Sam’s religion that includes hats and the sacred number three is soooooo cool!! (I really must try that excuse in maths one day…)
anyway, Cathy please, please keep on coming up with these AMAZING ideas, for your books put a smile on my face, yet make me burst into tears at the same time… they are so well written (I wish I could write like you) and I am so glad Ginger turned out OK in the end!! My advice for anyone who hasn’t read Gingersnaps yet…. get it out of your local library and start reading….NOW!!
Mikayla, age 13
Its such a awesomee book …. i LOVE it
I couldnt even put it down ..
Thanks for writing a lovely book :)
Charlie, age 12

By far one of the best books I have ever read. It’s so good I’ve read it for a second time! Really good story line and excellent characters. It’s well worth reading.
Chloe, age 13
I really liked the book gingersnaps. It was emotive and realistic and i nearly cried at the end. It’s good to show about friendships and is great way to tell everyone how special and fragile friendships are.

Bridget, age 10
Wow is the only word to describe the almost painfully, amazingly real world of Ginger. I’ve read my autographed copy four or five times already. Even though some of the experiences Ginger endures are not that of which I have, I can feel what she feels and I want to be able to rewrite Gingers bad decisions up until the end when I’m glad everything that happened to her, happened other wise she wouldn’t have been able to stand up to Shannon.
BEST BOOK EVER!
Amira, age 12
WOW!! i love your book i keep reading it again and again!! keep writing!!

Hey people! Just wanna say… I think you should all read Ginger Snaps because it’s one of Cathy Cassidy’s best books by FAR. It’s also one of my favourites, along with Sundae Girl and Scarlett. Ginger Snaps shows you that the only way you can find your real friends is by being yourself!
Bethany, age 11
this is a brill book cathy. i first heard of it in the back of lucky star, which is also a good book and then i bought it and it was amazing. the best book ever. it teaches kids about bullying and how to stop it. you can see how bullying affects lives and how you would feel if u were bullied!
Shannon, age 9

sam seems a reality to ginger.she lived a life of puppy fat and pigtails.then she came to midle school,met shannon and emily[she knew emily before].she was best friends with shannon until emily lost her best friend,Meg then they all turned into best friends until ginger falls for Sam Taylor.ginger and shannon start to drifrt abart,but ginger decided that friendship with shannon was more enportant than sam taylor and when she looked back on it she wondered how she fell for sam.

Hi Cathy! you are my absolute fav author! i love all the books you have written, not on e single word is boring! out of all the books you have written, Ginger Snaps is my faviroute. i used to be over weight when in primery school and at the end of year six i finnaly did some more sport and exercise and i got fit! on the last two years of primery school, i had a friend like Shannon and a friend like Emily, sadly, there were no saxophone admires though, but i guess you can’t have everything. i don’t have red hair either, i am a brunette head, but i do wish i had red hair though, that would be cool!

I loved Ginger Snaps it show about a girl who just wants to have friends.I thouroghly enjoyed all the random band names sam kept coming up with and i would recomend it to 11 + because the party scene had a lot of things like kids drinking and smoking in it
Michelle, age 10

chloe, age 11
This book made me stop and think. This book made me wanna scream out load at Ginger, tell her what to do. Thats why I love Cathy Cassidy books. This one inparticular reminded me of someone I know…
Chloe, age 9
This book is totally awsome!
I read it right away after my mum bought it for me!
Beth, age 14
Wow wow WOW!
I read your other books, but none compared to this. I swear I not only read it once or twice, but about 12 times! This book makes me laugh, it makes me cry, and it really makes me think.
It totally relates to me, because I have a best friend like Shannon.
She hates the boy I love, I wouldn’t say she bullys him like Shannon does for Sam though. I feel like we’re drifting apart and I don’t know what’s going to happen. So for Christmas I’m giving her a best friends heart necklace. Just like Ginger gives Shannon. I thought it was perfect to show her how I feel. Because it’s a broken heart.
Teaennah, age 11
When i saw this book i fell in love and when i read it i smiled, laughed and cried it was so sweet and i can relate to ginger as a kid. ginger snaps is an insparation it has a good meaning to be who you are and not hide yourself cause if your friends are true they’ll understand love you cathy xoox
Noelle, age 11
I adored gingersnaps! I got it on Christmas 2008. It was the first Cathy Cassidy book I ever read- and If my gran had not got it for me I would have never have found out about Cathy Cassidy!
Gingersnaps is my second favourite Cathy Cassidy book (Scarlett is probably first!!)

Ginger Snaps is a fantastic book that literally left me hanging off the edge if my own seat. I think that any young girl would love this book because it includes stuff that happens in ordinary girl’s lives. It is…. I am speechless. The ultimate pre-teen book!!!
Get it now, as Cathy Cassidy is an utterly astounding author who really captures the teenage life, by writing about the everyday things, but making them seem one in a million. Just like her talent for writing. One in a million.

Keelieigh, age 11
hi Cathy Cassidy
I think that Ginger snap is a fun book to read. I like it when Ginger doesn`t know what to do. Should she listen to her heart or should she go with her friends.
Tee, age 10

I read it on holiday and i like to go and read my books again but i reread gingersnaps loads.
Keep writing Cathy!!!!
Amy, age 11
I’m in the middle of reading Gingersnaps, but so far, so good! I love the way that Cathy describes the character, especially Sam. He sounds so real in the story. All of Cathy Cassidy’s books are good, and Gingersnaps is one of the one’s that stand out for me! ;)

I’m such a big fan of cathy cassidy every book i get i lend out to my buddies so when i got this in hardback i let FIVE people read it i even withdrew it from the library to give more people!
Roisin, age 11
AMAZING!!!the best book i read in my life!my fave character is sam.he sounds sooo cool!
Josie, age 12
WOW. I ♥ Gingersnaps.
I have wrote a review for this already and my views HAVE NOT changed. I read ALOT and this is probably the best book I’ve EVER read, and I’ve read all your books exept Cherry Crush (out today?) and the new Daizy star, and my next favourite would almost DEFINETLY be another of yours (Scarlett, Angel Cake??).
WOWWOWWOW. I’m reading it again now, only been reading for half an hour or so and already on chapter 8, page 46/7! I’m gonna carry on now, so Keep writing! (I’ll DEFINETLY keep reading!!)
xoxo

WOW! A book that is great, this wins a prize! Possibly the best book ever? A heartwarming thrilling tale about a girl who used to be a geek, a loser but turns into a popular kid with a cool name. But when the boy with the trilby hat comes along nothing will be the same? Cam friends really book forever? Read Ginger Snaps NOW! h xx
Evie-May, age 15
I used to be like Ginger with a friend like Shannon , though her name really is Shannon! I had to ask to do the littlest things and I liked the new boy a LOT! He was called Matty and was the outcast but Shannon didn’t approve of him. Me and Matty are still going out now and we have been for 3 years and Shannon said it wouldn’t last – well we showed her! Thank you for writing a book like my life – I can relate to it and for a minute , I thought you were copying my life!
Sampavi, age 11
This is one of my favourite books, of Cathy Cassidy! ITS AWESOME!! I am reading it now, the second time :)
I can read this million times, withouth getting bored, i can tell you! This book, made me cry, and made me feel like i was there…i was Ginger…it was sooo sad, exciting, cool! It was awesome! Some parts made me feel happy, and some made me feel angry, and some made me feel excited! This book includes sooo much feeling! Cathy, you’re awesome!! PLEASE PLEASE PLEASSSSEEE write more awesome books!! :)
Melanie, age 11
The best book in the world!!!!
Emma, age 13
The book was absolutely amazing! It was the farthest you can get from boring, it sucks you in. You start to feel you ARE Ginger. You feel like this book can never end, but when it does, you read it – five more times. This is an excellent read, I love nearly all your books. They deal with all sorts of problems and may give solutions to people with similar problems.
All in all, this book should get 9/10 – at the least!
Ashi, age 12
omg!!!!
i totally resemble ginger in this story .it happened to me in grade 6 i just kept getting dominated by a frnd.
it was too late by the time i realised that the price was too high.but guess its never too late to stand for yourself.THIS BOOK INSPIRED ME A LOT.EVERYONE SHOULD TAKE A LESSON FROM THIS BOOK.
THERE ARE MANY SHANNONS IN THIS WORLD AND WE HAVE TO STAND UP TO THEM.

Its very good. The book shows that you have to follow your heart and see where it leads you and always stick for what is right…
It also shows how Ginger resolves the problems with courage that are ahead of her which are related to her friends and her boy-friend..:)

Easter Bunny x, age 13
I love this book so much, it’s my fav Cathy Cassidy one!!!!!
I can kind of relate to her; in primary school I got picked on sometimes and when I got to comp, I learnt to stick up for myself.
And I also have a huge crush on a boy who plays the sax…...
I used to want to be really cool and popular, never succeeded, but I know that doesn’t matter, just as long as I have my amazing friends :D
Clein, age 14
Brilliant book. i love the little romance between sam and ginger. but i definately do not like shannon and ginger is really cool i love her name its really amazing i think! <3 CATHY CASSIDY IS AMAZING!!!! :)

FIFEE!!!!!
Victoria, age 10

Tia, age 10
WOW!! This book is amazing I totaly love ginger and sam there sooo cute! If you haven’t got Gingersnaps GET IT NOW!!!!!
Aimee, age 12
Ginger Snaps is the best book on earth I loved it. It has everything you need to know about friendship boys and everything else to do in your life
April, age 12
This is my favorite of the 5 CC books I’ve read! The story is real and true. I wish that I had a Sam! At different times in the book, I identified with Shannon, Ginger, and sometimes even Emily. I cried a bit when Shannon told Ginger that Emily was more fun, because I’ve been the Emily in that situation before. GingerSnaps was gripping from the beginning, and I hope to read more Cathy Cassidy soon!
Rhean, age 13
i love this book cathy you should never stop writeing!! When Ginger didnt tell shannon she was going out with sam i was saying “JUST TELL HER IF SHE DOES’NT LIKE IT SHE’LL HAVE TO GET USED TO IT!” but in the end she did the right thing xxx
Ain, age 10
I loved the book! Once I started reading it I couldn’t stop! And please don’t stop writing books. I love all your books. They are good!

Amy, age 13
I loved this book! I borrowed it from my local library and it’s one of my faves by Cathy! I couldn’t put it down and it only took me a day to read it!
Caitlin, age 14
I’m reading this book at the moment, and im liking it a lot so far, not as much as Lucky Star since i literally Fancy that book! lol that was random.. but yeah, i really like Sam Taylor at the moment, but who would call a band blue lemonade? lol
Molly, age 11
OMG! I finished Driftwood 2 days ago (the sencond best book in the world) and I’ve just re-read GInger Snaps (the best book in the world.
I’d actually forgotten how good Ginger Snaps was because I hadn’t read it in ages. I thought that Driftwood was better but now I’ve changed my mind.
My favourite thing about Cathy Cassidy books is that I feel like it’s my problem – not the person in the story’s. I get all nervous and want to get back to school to sort things out. I guess it’s kind of exciting.
Don’t stop writing Cathy! If you do I’ll stop reading and reading YOUR books is better than readying a magazine!!!

Abbie, age 12
I loved this book ,it was totally Awsome! I recommend this book for ages up to 10 and up as I thought thats about the right age.I read this book in 2 days and everyone was telling me I was a book worm but I know I wasn’t.The shocker for me was when she got kissed.i was like so shocked I had to put the book down and have a moment to think.Now I have read the book 6 times.
Love you Cathy
Abbie x
Katie, age 12
I took it out of my school library it was the first one of Cathy cassidys books that i read and i enjoyed it so much i read it all in one night.
Tia, age 13
I loved reading this book. It has many twists and turns and comes down with the drastic ending. I am in the Top Class for English in my school, and I have read all of your books since the start of the summer holidays. It has only been a week ! The main reason I enjoyed this book is because it reminded me of people in my class who “big” people up, and then drop them once they have nothing else to use them for. You are such a dedicated writer and I’d love for you to write many more books !
Tia xx
Zainab, age 11
Awesome book I really like it all your books are fantastic cathy!I’m not sure shannon is soooo nice but its great. I don’t seem to like emily because of her breaking things between ginger and shannon but then she seems to be really nice
Lacey, age 12
I think this is one of the best books I have ever read. Once I picked it up, I couldn’t put it down until I finished the page, and even then I kept going back to my favourite parts
Well done Cathy!!!
Emilie, age 13
I love this book so much. I think i have red it about 5-7 times because its just such a good book. Its my favouite book along with scarlett which i also love. I definatley recommend buying it!

Genevieve, age 11
It’s the best book i’ve ever read! The romance,the funny parts, the complications between Shanon and Ginger were nice. 3 words to describe this book:Thrilling, Romantic and Funny.
Amy, age 12
IF you like musical instruments and having a hard time with your bff this is the book for. It is so exciting you will never want to put it down .
Becca, age 13
An amazing book with a believable story-line very well written I read it in 2 days non-stop(I couldn’t put it down!)
Jennifer, age 11
Wow. Simply amazing. When I first got this book, I swear I couldn’t get away from it. One of the most brilliant, heart-clutching books I have EVER read. And I read alot!
It is all about fitting and not fitting in with the crowd, being different, figuring out who you really are, true friends and love.
Phenomenal.
Ashie-bee, age 13
I love this book, i had never heard of cathy cassidy before i read this but once i had i havent read anything since ! :D
Alice, age 10
