THE WORST GIRLFRIEND IN THE WORLD by Sarra Manning<br />

Young Adult | 336pp | Atom | May 2014<br />

Amelie Jenkins is the worst girlfriend in the world according to the many, many boys who've shimmied up<br />

lampposts and shoplifted from New Look to impress her, only to be dumped when she gets bored of them.<br />

But she never gets bored with Franny, her best friend since they met at kindergarten. Franny doesn‟t have<br />

much time for boys, unless they‟re Louis Allen, lead singer of Thee Desperadoes, the best band in Merrycliffeon-sea,<br />

though that could be because they're the only band in Merrycliffe-on-sea. He's a tousle-haired,<br />

skinny-jeaned, sultry-eyed man-child, and she's been crushing on him HARD for the last three years. But, when<br />

Amelie, bored with callow youths, sets her sights on Louis it threatens to tear the girls' friendship apart. They<br />

strike a devil's deal – may the best girl win. Best friends become bitter rivals and everything comes to an<br />

explosive conclusion on their first trip to London. Can true friendship conquer all? Sarra Manning is a journalist<br />

and an author. She began her writing career in teen magazines and was Entertainment Editor of Just<br />

Seventeen before becoming the editor of Elle Girl.<br />

ADORKABLE by Sarra Manning<br />

Young Adult | 336pp |Atom | May 2012 | Japan: Uni; Korea: Duran Kim<br />

A fun, funky new story from the queen of teen fiction<br />

Jeane Smith is seventeen and has turned her self-styled dorkiness into an art form, a lifestyle<br />

choice and a profitable website and consultancy business. She writes a style column for a<br />

Japanese teen magazine and came number seven in The Guardian's 30 People Under 30<br />

Who Are Changing The World. And yet, in spite of the accolades, hundreds of Internet<br />

friendships and a cool boyfriend, she feels inexplicably lonely, a situation made infinitely<br />

worse when Michael Lee, the most mass-market, popular and predictably all-rounded boy<br />

at school tells Jeane of his suspicion that Jeane‟s boyfriend is secretly seeing his girlfriend.<br />

Michael and Jeane have NOTHING in common - she is cool and individual; he is the golden<br />

boy in an Abercrombie & Fitch T-shirt. So why can't she stop talking to him? Sarra Manning is<br />

a journalist and an author. She began her writing career in teen magazines and was<br />

Entertainment Editor of Just Seventeen before becoming the editor of Elle Girl.<br />
