What to expect
SHORTLISTED FOR THE WINDSOR ACADEMY TRUST 2026 SECONDARY BOOK AWARDS
From the author of CROSSING THE LINE, winner of the 2024 Carnegie Shadowers' Choice Award.
'So much heart, inventiveness, narrative power, as well as humour, and such clever ways of representing the experiences, thoughts and feelings of young people' - Education Consultant, English and Media Centre
Shortlisted for the School Reading List Fiction Children's Book of the Year 2025
Marnie's really messed up this time - expelled and forced to change schools, the only empty seat in Marnie's new school is next to Zed, a neuro-diverse nerd with zero tolerance for mistakes. Marnie (skilled at art and Spanish, struggles with numbers) can't wait to lose her virginity. Zed (brilliant at maths and physics, loathes languages) is a loner who can't stand being touched. They couldn't be less alike, but they both need good grades in the subjects they hate.
What starts as a trade in tuition turns into an unlikely friendship - and after Marnie has sex with a boy who lies about using a condom, she needs Zed's help to make the hardest decision of her life.
