#loveozya :: P is for Pearl :: Eliza Henry-Jones
March 02, 20182018 is shaping up to be an amazing year for #loveozya books! P is For Pearl by Eliza Henry-Jones is another fantastic contemporary YA novel released by an Aussie author already this year. I requested a review copy of this one from Harper Collins purely based on the fact that the author was Australian and the Tasmanian setting sounded beautiful. At that stage it didn't even have a cover, (which we all know is often how I pick my books lol) but the cover they have put on it is divine!
Seventeen-year-old Gwendolyn P. Pearson has become very good at not thinking about the awful things that have happened to her family. She has also become used to people talking about her dead mum. Or not talking about her and just looking at Gwen sympathetically. And it's easy not to think about awful things when there are wild beaches to run along, best friends Loretta and Gordon to hang out with - and a stepbrother to take revenge on.
But following a strange disturbance at the cafe where she works, Gwen is forced to confront what happened to her family all those years ago. And she slowly comes to realise that people aren't as they first appear and that like her, everyone has a story to tell.
