Summary
Libby's father is a drunk, her mum wouldn't know the meaning of home cooking if it landed in her lap, and her brother's in trouble with the police, but none of this matters, as Zack is interested in her, not her home-life. This is a funny and rites-of-passage novel, as Libby searches for happiness, and 'a serious kiss'.
Amazon.com description: Product Description: Libby's father is a drunk, her mum wouldn't know the meaning of home cooking if it landed in her lap and her brother's in trouble with the police - but none of this matters, as Zack is interested in her, not her home-life. But just as things are working out on the boy front, Libby's family lose their home, and have to move in with their gran. Libby has to start a new school, give up her plans for Zack, and leave her best friend Nadine behind. But slowly she discovers there really IS a silver lining to every grey cloud - and there's plenty to fall in love with in her new home: her gran's cooking, the school outsider who stands up to the bullies, and the deadbeat boy who wants to show her the beauty of the desert...
