A time when you didn't have all these responsibilities, when your future shone brightly before you, the world full of opportunity! \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e Who are we trying to kid? Being a teen is \u003ci\u003ehard\u003c\/i\u003e. Even when you're a star on your school's soccer team, are a good student, and have a boyfriend, there are plenty of ways that being a teen--to speak bluntly--sucks. That's the world--of angst and emotion, fractured families and fractious frenemies--that Pete Kalu conjures up in \u003ci\u003eBeing Me\u003c\/i\u003e. The story of Adele, a girl with a rotten family, an aching heart, and a questionable best friend, it's a witty, lively novel of growing up female, black, and middle class in contemporary London. As Adele navigates an everyday gauntlet of soccer matches, fights with her best friend, texts and furtive kisses with her boyfriend (her first!), and the travails of her screwed up family, Kalu takes us back to those tough teen years, of learning to hold things together in the midst of chaos--and sorting things out by figuring out just who you are, and who you want to be.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cdiv class=\"sb-details\"\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eGenre:\u003c\/strong\u003e Fiction, Children's fiction\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFormat:\u003c\/strong\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePublished:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2015\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 104\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/strong\u003e HopeRoad Publishing Limited\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN:\u003c\/strong\u003e 9781908446350\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"HopeRoad Publishing Limited","offers":[{"title":"Standard Secondhand — £765.85","offer_id":47919017394353,"sku":"SB-1908446358-C3","price":765.85,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0618\/2669\/5345\/files\/1908446358.jpg?v=1789536469","url":"https:\/\/sellbooks.co.uk\/products\/being-me-hoperoad-striker-by-adele-viale-3","provider":"Sell Books .co.uk","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
