So what do you do with the school bully? Worse, what do you do when the school bully has a gang, and they’re out to get you? This is John Malarkey’s problem. New in town, John‘s mum is opening a book shop and John joins Brook High.
His attempt to quit smoking goes well until he finds himself deep in trouble. The school gang, the Tailors, has fitted him up for stealing report cards.
John starts trying to resolve the situation in different ways, getting a little help from the lovely Becky. When things don’t turn out quite as planned, he has to try a different plan – one that is all or nothing.
Can John beat the bullies or will he get expelled from Brook High?
Fast paced stuff, gripping and original.

Interesting book, isn't it? The cover is already a story by itself! I reviewed it here.
BTW, nice blog!
