The exploration of grief and survivor's guilt is dynamic, complex and sweetly sinister as the reader is pulled and dragged through a narrative where Vicky is an omnipresent, unnerving presence in the life of her best friend Jade that loves to torment and tease her, calling Vicky's loyalty and love for her into question from the word "go"...
But, that's what makes it unique, wholly original and poignant, thoughtful and wise.
Vicky Angel is a YA knockout filled with morally-grey characters, gratitude, resilience and hope!
