Tall, Thin and Blonde Dyan Sheldon

Jenny and Amy are best friends, they do everything together. Now they’re about to start High School and Amy says it’s the perfect opportunity to reinvent themselves and get in with the popular set. Jenny doesn’t understand why Amy is so desperate to fit in all of a sudden – she thought they both enjoyed being unique. At first she tries to keep up with Amy: she diets, goes to the school dance, even dyes her hair (unsuccessfully!). But the harder she tries to be tall, thin and blonde the more miserable she becomes, and the two drift apart as Amy spends more and more time with the popular Rosie Henley and her followers. Jenny finds that a group nicknamed “the Martians” – due to their unfashionable appearance and oddball behaviour – appeals to her more. Finally she gets involved with the non-conformist brother of one of the Martians and commits social suicide by dressing as a frog to protest against unnecessary dissections in Biology!

BIOGRAPHIES

Dyan Sheldon is the author of many books for young people, including Confessions of a Teenage Drama Queen, My Perfect Life, And Baby Makes Two, My Worst Best Friend and The Crazy Things Girls Do for Love. She also writes books for adults. American by birth, Dyan lives in London NW1.

Steampunk!: An Anthology of Fantastically Rich and Strange Stories edited by Kelly Link & Gavin J. Grant

Imagine an alternate universe where romance and technology reign. Where tinkerers and dreamers craft and re-craft a world of automatons, clockworks, calculating machines, and other marvels that never were. Here, fourteen masters of speculative fiction, including two graphic storytellers, embrace the steampunk genre’s established themes and refashion them in surprising ways and settings as diverse as Appalachia, Ancient Rome, future Australia, and alternate California. The result is an anthology that defies its genre even as it defines it.

Luckily the girls each have a plan for escaping their humdrum country life: Rose wants to be a novelist, Poppy a jazz musician and Daisy a famous film director. Violet, however, has only one ambition: to become the perfect Debutante, so that she can go to London and catch the eye of Prince George, the most eligible bachelor in the country.

But a house as big and old as Beech Grove Manor hides many secrets, and Daisy is about to uncover one so huge it could ruin all their plans - ruin everything - forever.
