OK, I admit it. I'm supposed to be a grown woman and I loved this book! In my defence, it's ten times better than any of the chick-lit dross marketed at twenty-somethings. Sue Limb's teen books remind me so much of the pure silliness of being a teenager, which so many authors seem to forget amongst the turmoil and corruption they suppose teenagers wallow in. Her characters sparkle with life, mischief, sensitivity and good-heartedness.
The premise of Zoe and Chloe is maybe a bit shaky - mysteriously advertising for boys in order to cast their net for prospective ball dates - compared to her Jess Jordan books, but the characterisation and dialogue are still intelligent and that kind of surreal which pinpoints exactly what it is to be fifteen years old.
A wonderful comedy and a sweet little book for a summers' afternoon. Teenagers should love it, and so might their older siblings!
