Description

A brilliant blend of romance, drama and comedy, all propelled by the desire to fit in but also work out who you are and who you want to be.

Noah has a really tight group of friends, but he’s feeling stuck. Why are he and his mates never invited to parties? Will he ever be able to tell popular Saskia how he feels about her?

As Noah’s seventeenth birthday draws closer, he plucks up the courage to speak to Saskia and invites her to his party. Only problem is, he’s not allowed one. But then one weekend, his parents go away . . .
