Published by Harper Collins
REVIEWS:
THE AUSTRALIAN: Weekend Australian Review April 1 2017. Read full review by Robyn Walton on BOOKS page.
‘Melbourne author Lesley Truffle gives the young female protagonists extraordinary adventures and social mobility. Her humour is droll, her tone arch, her satire pervasive … These narratives toy with and partially reject the courtship plot conventionally offered to female readers. They also ask whether the modern woman must behave and think like a man.’
NETGALLEY: posted October 9 2017. Read full review by Snow Queen SVT (Netgalley Book Review) on BOOKS page.
‘I absolutely love Sasha Torte. I am as in love with her as I am in love with dark chocolate (that’s a lot). She is an amazing character. Even when she is on drugs she is adorable. Sasha is lovable through all her bipolar episodes. She is a very strong, determinate and … through everything that happens to her, she is very content with everything that happens to her and around her.‘
