Nightwanderers by C.J. Flood

4.0

'It all started with a poo in a flower bed.'

This book follows the story of Rosie Bloom, and her best friend Titania DeFuria. The book has a lot of teenage drama going on. Different characters with the usual high school roles.
Titania DeFuria is quite a brave daring girl while Rosie is quite the opposite - red-face, and more reserved.
They compliment each other very well.
When Rosie turns back on Ti without warning, Ti is expelled from school, and Rosie tries to make things right and she can't because her situation at home wasn't looking up either with her mother.
Ophelia DeFuria who is Ti's twin, is also an interesting character, madly in love and confusing character. But I sympathised with her. Teenagers lives aren't as easy as people may think, this book can be one of the ways I could explain why.
This book has a natural flow of a teenager's life, and I was surprised when at certain points I could relate how Rosie or Ti was feeling. The author conveyed the character's feelings quite well.
The addition of Alisha, Kiaru, Charlie, Alex, Mia, were also drama enthralled, and I was also surprised how the development of a character such as Alex was maintained, cause in the end... you'll see.

My favourite character was Joey, the sweet 8-year-old brother of Rosie, who she could rely on, the book also shows the luck of having siblings, and I couldn't be any more grateful for my 3 siblings.
The book is the narration of the drama of a teenager's life, it is very interesting being a person who doesn't realise what's going on around her, this story reminds me of all the hilarious dramas in my teenage life and how much more is to come. The book all in all was nostalgic, I liked it 😃 Cause it reminded of the sweet friends that I have and that I know I should trust them with my life and never risk anything for something else equally important.
