REVIEW OF *YOU* IN TRIB
There was a small review of my novel You in yesterday's Sunday Tribune, by Tom Widger. Online here. I found out about it via my cousin who saw it on my brother's Facebook. Funny enough, that's the sort of way I always find out about these things.
I completely disagree with Tom Widger's comment about 'this ten yr old being far too precocious.' Do we now we have to fit our protagonists into pre-conceived acceptable norms of someone else's experience?!

Yes, Lucy, I don't think she's too precocious. I have an 8 yr old who is more so! So that comment doesn't bother me. I liked the review all in all.
