Format:Paperback
If you've ever written a blog, or read other people's blogs, you can't read this and not laugh out loud over and over again. And yet it's far more than just a very funny peek into someone's life, there's also intrigue and fallings out and Big Nasty Things that will keep you turning the pages long after you should really be doing something more sensible.

Told completely through Serafina67's fantastically funny and often moving (or maybe just a bit emo) blog posts, combined with comments from various interesting characters, Big Woo! is a brilliant and well-balanced exploration of the pros and cons of internet friendship and the type of honesty that it's easier to show online than in person. It's also a great story of one girl's struggle to carve a certain level of happiness out of the craziness going on around her.
It's completely hilarious at times - I honestly don't think I've ever laughed so hard while reading as I did at the haiku comments - and it contains some wonderful characters. The suspense builds brilliantly as you start to read between the lines of the comments and question what's really going on.
Very highly recommended!

Big Woo, the story of a troubled teenager, told in her online blog, is not only just amazingly funny and clever and refreshingly different; it is also one of the most accurately observed and thoughtfully drawn profiles of a teenager today. Serafina is at one and the same time deliciously thoughtless, completely self obsessed and yet vulnerable and needy. In her attempts to reach out to the big wide web world, to understand her parents and forge her own identity, she has the reader laughing out loud and dying inside. There is something very nourishing about Serafina's spirit, though. She can laugh at herself, get back up and keep on going, even when she's emotionally knocked flat. So if you've ever suffered from self doubt, too much flaky pastry and a love hate thingy with your mental parentals, this book will not only give you the courage to carry on, but it will have you rolling on the floor in fits of laughter and the tears rolling on your cheeks while you're doing it!
