Everybody Hurts

Author(s): Joanna Nadin

Young Adult Fiction

It's Leeds, I said, not Hollywood. You're not going to find a hero working down Kwikfit.


Matt and Sophia both live in Leeds - but they should never have met.


And they definitely never should have fallen in love.


Friends, family and circumstance are mostly against them rather than for them.


They betray themselves; then they betray each other.


And in the end they learn, the bloody hard way, what it takes for love to survive.


Honest, gritty, laugh out loud at times, profoundly touching at others, EVERYBODY HURTS is a classic romance with an anti-love story plot.
