3.0
you can read my full review here: http://www.spinebreakers.co.uk/sp_reviews/bwb/
this is my first phil earle book and i really enjoyed it. like i didn't know what to expect but yeah.
first of all it's set in the UK so yay. secondly, the main character s British Chinese so yay a POC character!
this book is about friendship, discovering who you are and what you're capable of, family and bullying. although there were lots of themes but not much was resolved like the bullying was horrible yet not dealt with. the family secret was BIG and CRAZY.
i felt like this book needed more description like for the skateboarding tricks and for the graffiti.
it is a very short book but a good book.
oh yeah so basically this boy is seen as a loser and wants to change that and feels like if he had a talent that could change his life so he discovers skateboarding and he practices and then things happen and he has this crazy overprotective mum (chinese mothers do tend to be overprotective) and yeah.
so Happy Reading!
=D
p.s i liked this book so i do actually want to read Phil Earle's other books. =)
