Kate and Joe ought to be a perfect match. They're both obsessed with movies. They definitely fancy each other. And they never stop talking. But it's never that simple, is it? This is what they don't tell you about love in the movies: (one) You never know what's going on in the other person's head, never, not even when they're telling you; (two) which you know already, because you're not necessarily telling them what's going on in your head either; (three) and most of the time you're not sure what's going on in your head anyway; (four) most important of all, keep in mind, all the time, that you don't get 'happily ever after' when you're seventeen, you don't get anything 'ever after', not yet.

Summer isn’t turning out the way Molly planned…Looking forward to six weeks in sunny southern France kept Molly going all through exam revision. But she didn’t count on the loneliness.Communicating in a language that’s not your own is hard.Living with someone else’s family is weird.And spoilt, moody Léa would rather spend her time with a neverending stream of boys than bother with Molly.Maybe Molly needs to stop focusing on Léa and find a boy of her own?Review by The Worm Hole: "It’s just gorgeous. There is a plot but it lingers in the background, humming in the flowers. There are characters and they’re important, but it’s the whole that you will take away from you. To say this is the perfect summer read isn’t an understatement." (This review is for an earlier edition.)
