A review by reading_i_like_that_shit
In Bloom by Matthew Crow
4.0
I found out about this book through http://projectukya.blogspot.com/ a lovely book site that features Young Adult books written by authors in the UK. I had to order this book from the UK because its not available here in the US.
This book was great. Its British book, so of course I was just loving the voice of the story.
The book is told by Francis a 15 year old unpopular kid. Other characters include his Mum, older brother Chris, his flatmate Fiona, Grandma, and his new friend he meets Amber.
All the characters were a blast.
The book is about a serious topic of cancer, but the story is written so real. You feel all the feelings from each character, happy, sad, fear, sarcasm, love, everything.
The story is Francis telling us about his everyday life before and during his cancer diagnosis. He meets Amber and his world is changed, as is his families and her family. Its hard to explain the story, so it should be read by you. I liked it because it was serious but also cheeky and funny, but most of all it felt real.
I loved the characters and didn't want to let them go.
Give it a read.
