Driftwood
Can Hannah stop her friends from drifting apart?
‘I feel like I’m losing my best mate . . .’
Hannah and Joey have been best friends forever – just the two of them. But when Joey’s new foster brother, Paul, turns up, everything changes. First Joey falls for Hannah’s brother, Kit. Then Paul complicates things – with some kittens, a chocolate bar and a stripy pink bicycle.
Hannah’s world is turning upside down. Can you rescue a friendship when it’s drowning? Can you save a friend in trouble – if they don’t want to be saved?

driftwood is simply amazing cathy you rock!!
I love Cathy Cassidy because she writes about things that we all care or should care about my favourite book is Driftwood because it is sensible and I think 57 percents of the kids all over the world know what is it to be in Paul’s situation .
i think i am in love with paul
I loved this book. I got it ages ago and have never stopped reading it. I love the characters (especially joey and paul) and its just the perfect book ever!!!
I want to be a writer when im older and i hope to write books like yours. I have read this book to many times to count. The setting is so origanal. Having it near the beach is such a cool idea! I believe in beach magic (i always go to the seaside) and having it written on paper like this is amazing. You are such a good writer.
It shows real life situations like bullying and self harm (although it only breifly touches that) and how some teachers wont help but some will. I love the cats in the book as I two of my own. Its such a good idea to name them after the simpsons! I like how hannah and paul get on so well like a less depressing mini version on romeo and juliet!
Joey is amazing. She is such a rebellious character and I have a friend just like her! Less chatty LOL! Its cool you put fostering into the book because people dont realise all the things they go through and getting through to the younger generation about it is useful.
well i think ive gone on too much just want you to know this book is amazing and im never going to put it down. Reading it now!!!
BUY IT!!!
It made me cry it was so cool. Paul was my favourite character, hes so kind and unusual and mysterious.
I have read basicaly all of the Cathy books and I must say, this is definately one of my faves! Driftwood is so compelling and touching that when the book came to the end, I went straight back and read it all over again! All of the tension and heartfelt emotion of the story completely seeps out of the book, so when you look around, all you can see is the rolling grey ocean and a whitewashed cottage with bleached driftwood scattered on the ground. The feeling of the book really got to me and I look at life from a totally different perspective now. I really love ‘Driftwood!’
Oh my god! I love all of your books but this one is a definate fave! I got soo worried about Paul at one point that I almost cried. Joey is really cool and I love her origionality. Kit seriously annoyed me but the story wouldn’t be right without him, and I’ve got a best mate called Hannah, and told her all about the book, she loved the idea and ‘her’ character. Fab! x
