Sundae Girl – the verdict!
Tuesday 8th May 2007
Just catching up on an avalanche of your FAB reviews and questions… thanks to everyone who emailed with such great feedback on Sundae Girl and Love, Peace & Chocolate! I’m answering as many as I can, but apologies if you haven’t heard back – some of my replies have bounced back. Here’s what some of you have been saying….
Sundae Girl is the best book i have ever read! On the 31st March (Jude’s Piano exam!) my family and I went to the Trafford Centre. After about 2 hours I finally managed to drag them into WHSmiths. I went straight to the children’s section, and immediately my eyes fell on a sheeny shiny, gold-n-yellow book… Sundae Girl! I grabbed one of the books and bolted to the counter. Sundae Girl is BRILLIANT!!!!!!!!!!!!

I have read Sundae Girl and i thought that it was amazing. There were some funny things and some sad things – this is by far the best book that you have written so far. I can now only wait for Lucky Star to come out.

As soon as your new book, Sundae Girl, was out I actually screamed. I saw an advertisement on the back of my favourite magazine, Mizz, so i forgot about buying the magazine and went staright to the book section, saw the last copy, snatched it and read it in a few hours. It was a fab book. I can’t wait until you’re next one!

I loved Sundae Girl! Kevin Carter sounds like the type of guy I’d go for- crazy and cute! Wow, your books scarily resemble bits of my life (and a couple of my wildest daydreams)! I just wanted to say congrats on the new book- it’s great!

Hi Simonne! Sundae Girl will be out in SA in June, but not sure if the camper van will make it over – that would be soooooo cool! Maybe one day!

I got Mizz mag and read Love, Peace & Chocolate. I thought it was great. Me and my friend hav just had our first boyfriends & we felt we were cool wiv them but really you can never get as close as your best friend!

I have never read your books before but got Love, Peace & Chocolate free with Mizz… it was just so real and I loved it, totally. I have had a similar problem myself! Got Sundae Girl on Saturday and loved that too… you’ve got yourself a new fan!

I read u minibook Love, Peace and Chocolate and really like the idea of a peace festival. I was wondering whether I would be able to hold one at my school?
Charlotte
Hi Sophie, Lyndsey & Charlotte! Glad you liked the mini book! Yay!! Charlotte, it’d be AMAZING if you organised a Peace Festival at your school – brilliant idea! Talk to your teachers and let me know how you get on!

I loved Sundae Girl! Just like i liked all your other books. MY fav character was Kevin Carter, so determind and brave, sounds cute too! I wish i new a boy like that.
hya cathy! readin sundae girl! read all ur other books apart from love peace and chocolate but as soon as i’m near a bookshop, i’ll get it! lovin the book so far but my fave book u’ve written has got to be DIZZY!
Although Driftwood is my favourite book of yours, I definitely experienced Sundae Girl in a better way! (then again I read Driftwood on a train…) Lying in a hammock, under a cherry blossom tree, sunny, but not hot and nibbling strawberry pocky (a must-have!) all topped off with a book by my favourite author EVER! Now that’s a haven for book lovers…

I read Sundae girl in under a day!!! I was totally obsessed with reading it and I loved it. I still prefer Scarlett, though!
I absolutely Loved this book. It’s one of the best. I started reading as soon as i got it and wouldn’t put it down till i had finished. I love every single book by you never stop writing. your my favorite author;.
