32C, That's Me Award-winning author by Chris Higgins (author)

Jess seems to have it all. She has a gorgeous boyfriend, Muggs; she’s landed the lead role in the school play, and she’s got a best friend who always sticks by her! But then her mum is diagnosed with breast cancer, and Jess’s world is turned upside down. No one seems to understand what she’s going through. Muggs is too busy with the play, her dad is never around to talk to, and all of a sudden her best friend, Ali, is avoiding her. Jess soon starts to realise that maybe having it all isn’t what really matters, and maybe the people you thought you could depend on aren’t the ones to trust.

The fantastic and touching debut from Chris Higgins, a fresh talent who understands just where teenagers are coming from.
