Synopsis

Move over Georgia Nicolson, April-May has just enrolled 'Life is not a bowl of cherries. Suck it up.' April-May loves boys with green eyes, reading at the back of class and wearing non-regulation socks. April-May hates stuck up rich kids and two-minute noodles. Life at her new school would have been fine if Mrs Ho, the English teacher hadn't decided that April May was a no-good, trouble-maker, bursary-kid. April-May decides that Mrs Ho has to go. Then April-May meets the drop-dead gorgeous Sebastian, befriends the total suck up mouth-breather Melly and things get a little more complicated. A MONTH WITH APRIL-MAY is a one-eyebrow-raised account of a teenager's trials and tribulations as she navigates a new school, a new family situation and a whole new way of life.

Media Reviews
The hectic pace of the dramas and April-May's own largely benign view of them make this is a fresh and entertaining novel which reveals that teen trouble is the same the whole world over. -- Julia Eccleshare * Lovereading4kids *
I devoured the book in one sitting, but it passed the acid test when my teenage daughter was compelled by the sheer excellence of the writing to keep reading. -- Aubrey Paton * The Times South Africa *
Devoured in an evening and highly recommended. -- Leigh Andrews * Media Update (review for 100 DAYS WITH APRIL-MAY) *
