BOYS ALLOWED!!!
Tuesday 7th April 2009
It’s mostly girls who read my books… or is it? Who says that boys don’t want to read real-life, growing up stories about friendship, families and falling in love? Boys have friends, families and feelings too, after all!
Boys DO read my books, but they don’t post on the website as often as girls. (OK, OK, I know… the website IS very pink!!!!) Do YOU know a boy who enjoys my books? A friend, a brother, a classmate, a boyfriend? If so, get him to post a comment through the link below explaining why he likes the books… I’ll post the best online and print the VERY best in a brand new CC minibook, Cupcakes & Kisses, to be given away free with UK mag Mizz in the summer!
Who knows, there could be some boy readers out there who are just as cool as Finn, Kian, Sam, Carter, Paul and Mouse…
Get those comments coming… let’s hear it for the boys!!!

Hiya,
How’s you been? I can’t wait to meet you at Bluewater. I got your newsletter about the boys and well I’d just like to say.
You’re books rock! I think they’re great and you should never stop writing!
Also, Cathy, if you did books for older boys (y’know, about 15 or 16 years old) ABOUT older boys, I think guys like my brother (who is nearly 17) would enjoy them more. No offense! I love all your books, but I’m just saying what I think would interest boys more. I’m looking forward to your next book, Angel Cake. Lots of love, Rin xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
I agree definately because my best friend Ben reads cathy cassidy books and he’s a boy! Boys can read them as well as girls or it’s sexist! x
Hey Callum, if you come back on here i’ve got something to tell you: i know scarlett and sundae girl and indigo blue etc all have girly covers kind of but if anyone bothers you about reading one of them just say “Hey, do me a favour and mind your own business” or ignore them. (But that’s only for if they give you a hard time!!!) Rin xxxxxxxxxx P.S. this is to Cathy: Right now i’m reading gingersnaps (and Sundae Girl) and they’re both amazingly BRILL!!!! Love them 🙂
True Fact I Totally Agree !
But Its Very Sad That Boys Dont Share There Feelings About Books Like These !
My Boy Friend At Skool Gave Me The Book Scarlett For My Birthday I was reallly happy and pleased !!
I bet he secretly read it before !!LOL
awesome! you could always take the dust cover off another book, but it’s better to face people.
I think its gr8 2 c boys reading books that I like reading! Im not really 1 of the girls that is really girly, who likes shopping, jewlery, and pink. So I have 2 addmit, Im more like a boy rather than a girl. So I know what the boys would rather read about. I like Luck Star because it is from the eyes of a guy, so that appealed to me. And I also loved the romeance between Mouse and Cat! And BTW; I think Im in love with MOUSE! LOL! Even though he is a fictional character!
Thanx Cathy for getting me into reading!
Love Magz

I might ask if the boys in my class like you books! I’ll be really surprised if they do! Oh by the way im Hannah Blair the person you wrote the letter to on the train to LONDON!!!!!!!!! = -)
anyone can read books whatever age or gender and thats a fact.warningDO NOT TRY AND PROVE ME WRONG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Heya Cathy!
I bet boys (do) and would love your books! =]
This is to Rin, about Callum. Maybe you should suggest for the boys that are picking on you about CC’s books, to read one and see if they like the books. . .
This is to everyone: I LOVE MOUSE and if you have a school Magazine you should put a survey in it about whether people read CC books and whether they are boy or girl to find out how many boys like the books aswell as girls. . .
Can’t wait for Angel Cake!
