Marc loses everything you can possibly lose. I mean everything. He plays football; he’s not the biggest person in the world. He goes for work experience at a car yard. He meets Mickey (he’s gay) and Belinda they’re now his friends. The whole reason he went to work at the car yard is he saw the girl of his dreams walking out the gate a few days before.

 * ** Book Review ** ||

This book is about a boy in year 10 who plays footy and loses everything. He goes to a car yard for work experience, because a few days before he saw the girl of his dreams walking out of there. At the car yard he meets the owner, Mr Gates. He also meets Micky, a gay kick-boxer from Queensland, and Belinda. He quickly becomes friends with both of them. He has to be careful talking to his best friend, Trav about Micky, so he doesn’t think Marc’s gay. Marc soon finds out that Electra, the girl of his dreams, doesn’t work at the car yard, but was just visiting. She moved to Melbourne from Broome because of her running ability. Electra was to be living with Mr Gates’ but he got sick so she is living with her coach. Marc finds out that Electra runs past his house every morning, so he tries to talk to her. The first time it failed miserably. The second morning it didn’t fail as bad and he got a date out of it. Read the book to find out what happens next

The best thing about this book is it is easy to get into and the storyline is written well. I don’t like the way some of the conversations were written. You might like this book if you also enjoy books by //James Moloney// that are set in modern times. Such as “Lost Property”
