A bookshop crammed with wonders; two love stories; a lost friendship rediscovered; sinister secrets and a terrible act of revenge. Simon thought moving in with his grandparents was going to be boring
Following the death of his parents, 16-year-old Simon moves into his grandparents' claustrophobic bungalow, which quickly becomes a refuge from his bullying peers. United by their voracious appetite for books, Simon and his grandmother stumble across the Great Big Book Exchange - a bookshop with a difference. There they meet impulsive, gothic Kelly and her boss, Terrance - and the friendships forged in the Great Big Book Exchange result in startling and unsettling consequences for all of them.

"A lovely book, beautifully written and wonderfully observed, about young people and old people, about growing up, and finding out who you are. A real treat to read--I loved every page of it." --Melvin Burgess, author, "Smack"  Be the first to write a customer review
