REVIEWS

Three reviews have come back from the journalists I sent advance copies to – I’m so grateful to them for reading my book and giving me their thoughts. I LOVE Colin’s full review but it contains a few (sort-of) spoilers, so I’ve put it at the bottom of the page for anyone who doesn’t mind knowing more than the cover lets on…

Full review from Colin Drury, The Independent

Incest, suicide, drug abuse, lesbian affairs and a bloke who attempts to self-administer a lobotomy using a household drill: it’s fair to say The Raven Wheel isn’t your average YA novel. For good measure, there’s also more swearing than a Tarantino film and lashings of Frosty Jack’s cider.

But this is a debut that is as brilliant as it is brutal. Dark, complex and gripping. In Ria, Stone has created a (anti) heroine for the post-millennial generation: internally conflicted perhaps but fearless, frank and absolutely unwilling to let those who have wronged her get away with it. A teenager not to be trifled with.
