This book is AMAZING! Cathy really captures everyone’s feeling and it seems so real when you read it.
I read it when i was 10 i recommend you read it when you are 9 to 15.
This book is definitely one of the best that Cathy’s wrote.

Anya is a happy, carefree teen living in Poland. With her kindly dad, sweet mum and cute little sister, she has it good – or so she thinks. When the family move to Liverpool, she is excited. Her english is good, and she will surely make new friends? No. Bullied by Lily, her first few days were hell – but soon she befriends Frankie and Kurt, and gets a lot closer than friends with bad boy Dan. But what will happen in her new life in the less – than ideal Liverpool, and will her father’s money problems thwart all hope?
I love this book. I really love it. I have read it hundreds of time, and closely identify with Anya (I have a very posh accent and the others in my class are all rough and rather mouthy). I love the characters, and I strongly advise this for any ages, especially 8+.

All Anya ever dreams of, while looking out at the Polish skies, is moving to England, to a lovely cottage with a garden to play in and roses weaved around the door. Soon her dream comes true, and they board the plane to England…
Anya can’t wait to get to England, to see her Dad again after three years of postcards, letters and small parcels with wooden toys for Anya and her little sister Kazia to play with. But she’s scared, too. Wouldn’t you be scared if you’d lived all your life in Poland but you were coming to live all the way over in England?
They meet their Dad at the airport and the four of them make their way to what Anya thinks will be the house she always dreamed of…except it isn’t. It’s a horrible tiny flat above a chip shop where the smell of burning chip fat clings to everything.
A few days later, Anya starts her new school. No one understands her, and she’s too scared to speak. Eventually people give up on her, and leave her alone to doodle on her English Language worksheets. That day is the worst day of Anya’s life. She hates it, and she hates it even more when she hears Kazia had a great first day of school and made loads of new friends.
But everything changes for the better, when Anya meets a boy in angel wings…
This book was really good. It was written brilliantly and it was as if you were there, watching everything that happened to Anya and her family. I give this book 10/10, it’s one of the best books Cathy has ever written!! My favourite character was Frankie, one of Anya’s new friends, because she was really cool and funny and didn’t care what anybody else thought, and she also helped Anya and gave her advice when Anya didn’t know what to do.
