'''Shortlisted for the 2015 Waterstones Children’s Book Prize: Best Book for Teens'''
Meg's parents think six months away in New Zealand is a great idea. Meg isn't convinced. A big part of the reason she doesn't want to go is Oscar. Oscar Dunleavey is Meg's best friend, the boy next door who makes perfect apple tarts.
I could talk about the themes of the complexity of friendship and misunderstanding, and how the perception of how things are can be so utterly different to reality.
But, instead I'll say this: If you enjoyed ''[[Back to Blackbrick''by Sarah Moore Fitzgerald|Back to Blackbrick]], Sarah Moore Fitzgerald's debut novel, you should read this. If you enjoy deceptively simple tales that raise big questions about life and happiness, you should read this. If you're a fan of books for younger teenagers, you should read this. It's a wonderful book that will leave you with a giant smile on your face, and a longing for the taste homemade apple tart.
My thanks to the publishers for sending a copy.
