The first time we met, Jewel Valentine saved my life.
Isn't it enough having your very own terminal disease, without your mother dying? Or your father dating your Art teacher?
No wonder Sacha Thomas ends up in the lake that Saturday evening…
But the real question is: how does he end up in love with Jewel Valentine?
With the help of quirky teenage prodigies Little Al and True Grisham, Sacha and Jewel have a crazy adventure, with a little lobster emancipation along the way.
But Sacha's running out of time, and Jewel has secrets of her own.
Girl Saves Boy is a hugely talented debut novel, funny and sad, silly and wise. It's a story of life, death, love… and garden gnomes.
Beautiful
This was, and still is, my favourite book. Everything about it is absolutely flawless. The writing, the characters, the dialogue and the story. I have thoroughly enjoyed this book and will every time I read it. It's beautiful in every single way. I recommend it to everyone and will be sure to make sure all my friends read it because it is too good to miss. If you're looking for a book about life, loss and love, then this is definitely for you.
