Why does Lydia not realize this was all Anne’s plan from the very beginning? Anne told Lydia that everyone in the group had done this - including Frankie and Bharti. Frankie gives Lydia the cold shoulder (And Lydia does not assume this is because Lydia failed her task, but because Frankie thinks Lydia is a thief) and Bharti only believes Lydia because he likes to be contrary like that. Anne’s lie is obvious, no? High profile cases such as the horrific murder of Stephen Lawrence, as well as her own negative personal experiences, made her consider the issue of race. By this time she felt she had a comfortable platform and respect enough within the world of writing (as well as television) to contribute positively to a difficult subject. Noughts and Crosses

The Monster Crisp-Guzzler (illustrated by Sami Sweeten), Corgi Children's, 2002, ISBN 0-552-54783-2 Girl Wonder's Winter Adventures (illustrated by Lis Toft), Orion Children's Books, 1992, ISBN 0-575-05383-6Access-restricted-item true Addeddate 2020-09-14 10:05:18 Boxid IA1928621 Camera USB PTP Class Camera Collection_set printdisabled External-identifier Lydia then tries to run away from her problems and get's into a bus while it's heavily raining outside (as you do) and suddenly she's transported into the future. The next thing you know, you're in the future. Being shot at for being out after curfew. You don't even recognise your hometown. And you're heading for a confrontation from your worst nightmare. I think this is a great, fantastic, thriller book and I would definitely recommend it to anyone who enjoys fantasy, science-fiction thriller books. I wouldn’t even mind if Lydia came up with some kind of silly plan to combat this “Oh I’ll make lots of money and buy it myself and then everyone will live in sunshine and rainbows”. But the fact that she doesn’t even consider this horrible, looming future is more than strange. As though she cares only about saving her and her brothers immortal souls, everything else doesn’t matter that much.

Thief by Malorie Blackman - Patcham High School Thief by Malorie Blackman - Patcham High School

I didn’t mind Lydia in this book, and the prose wasn’t great, but entirely tolerable, as long as you ignore all the exclamation points.

You’re the new girl in school. You’re just trying to fit in – and it’s not working. Then someone accuses you of theft, and you think things can’t get any worse. Until you get caught in a freak storm …The next thing you know, you’re in the future. Being shot at for being out after curfew. You don’t even recognise your hometown. In give it 4 stars because it didn’t give some information about the parents when Lyidia went to the future. Because lyidia didn’t see her parents in the future. So did they die how? Or did they move away when?

Short story in the multi-author collection The Crew and Other Teen Fiction, Heinemann Library, ISBN 0-431-01875-8 Personally, I thought the twist was pretty neat; and entirely unexpected, rather novel. And I don’t mind that the time travel isn’t explained. As long as you set yourself some rules and then abide by them then things are fine. Her books are so intelligent and even though they are written for readers who are more on the 'Young' side of 'Young Adults', they are still rich with well-thought out characters and don't shy away from gritty and uncomfortable subject matters. (I remember the controversy that Pig Heart Boy caused when it was adapted for the BBC!)Because; the thing is, Lydia might now prevent herself and Danny growing into jaded tyrants, but that isn’t stopping literally everyone else from tormenting the town and the whole of England. The resistance says this themselves: One day there is an accident involving her friend and a misunderstanding that Lydia can’t take it anymore and tries to run away but is caught in a strange storm and the next thing she knows, she is in the future and the whole future is bizarre, making her go crazy.
