Review

"She's back! Diary of a Chav - Keeping It Real, is all about the hilarious adventures of the super-sparky and mouthy Shiraz Bailey Wood. Shiraz is back in Goodmayes, Essex, revisiting old friends in this, her sixth Chav Diary, and her life is about to get a tad darker ... We can't get enough of Shiraz's shenanigans ...we dare you not to laugh out loud!"

(Mizz )

"...this book is hilariously honest and will have you chuckling from the beginning to end"

(Hot Stars (Ok Magazine) )

Product Description

It's back to Goodmayes and the cast and characters of the very first Diary of a Chav (Trainers V Tiaras) for this 6th diary from Shiraz, for whom life is about to get just a little bit darker...

Shiraz is nearly 19 and has been living away from home for the past few months but is now back in Goodmayes, Essex in her old cell-like bedroom plotting her future. She's absolutely determined to get to college and get on her way to being a writer, who ACTUALLY GETS PAID this time! She knows she's going to have to have a few words with Wesley about their future as he's planning all sorts himself and it isn't fair. Can she really contemplate a future without her lovely Wesley? But will he ever fit into her new life? Talk about a total quandary!

And while she's mulling that one over her mum Diane drops a massive bombshell on the whole family and Shiraz's life is suddenly turned upside down. Soon home in Goodmayes seems like the only place to be, sorrounded by everyone she's grown up with, people she loves to bits...Can Shiraz give up her dreams? Does she have to? Wait and see.

Perfect 19 Oct 2011
Format:Paperback
I bought Diary of a Chav:Trainers vs. Tiaras, when it first came out. I didnt really fancy it at the time but a few years later, four days before Christmas and I was going crazy locked in the house with my brother... I picked it up off the shelf
And fell in love.
This series of books is amazing in the way that Shiraz is such a believable, but interesting character. I love the way that Grace Dent writes, and like the way that Shiraz doesn't always understand things. The rest of the characters were funny and realistic too, and their lives all go down routes that discuss subjects like teenage pregnancy, racism, gangs, illegal immigration, etc.etc. But in a really interesting way that teenagers will find interesting and relatable. all the way through the books I constantly thought "I know a boy like that!"or Omg I know that girl!" (I have a friend just like Cava Sue, with a tiny bit of Kezia mixed in)

I thought that Keeping it Real was the perfect ending. I wont spoil the plot, but it's a twist. I've always wondered, do you think she meets up with Joshua? I love how Shiraz never really looses sight of what's important to her, even if she gets a bit lost sometimes.
Im so sad that a great series of books that craftily discuss the shades of grey in ordinary people's lives has come to an end.

Okay, enough gushing,

P.s. Diary of a snob was good too, in an opposite end of the spectrum thing. But Poppet's adventure wasnt as exciting as Shiraz's

I bought Keeping it Real in 2009,didn't want it to end, I can't put all six Diary of a Chav books, I'm not going to spoil it for anyone by saying what happened all I'm going to say is buy it, if you love Shiraz Bailey-Wood, you'll love Keeping it Real.
