'More hilarity from the feisty Prim in the third installment of the Primrose Leary trilogy from the multi-awarding author of Tangleweed and Brine. `I loved this book. It's funny and touching and smart and sharp. Buy it!' - Louise O'Neill, author of Asking for It and The Surface Breaks The third installment of the Primrose Leary trilogy from the multi-awarding author of Tangleweed and Brine. In the event of my untimely death, please burn this unread. No, don't DO it! Prim's alive (though the dashing Roderick is, alas, no more). She's sixteen. She's trying to make sense of her mum's diaries. She is trying desperately to make Joel be friends with her again, but he's all friends with Karen (aka the devil) now, and Prim's found a boy called Robb-with-two-bees, and then there's Steve the Goblin, and her dad's getting together with you'll-never-guess-who, and as for what's going on with Ciara and Syzmon ... Everything's a little imperfect. `Funny and sad and smart and true - this is a great book and a brilliant ending to a truly wonderful series.' - Karina Clifford, Goodreads review `Prim is hilarious, she's smart, she's a feminist character - but she's absolutely imperfect... Sullivan's novel is a wonderful finale to the trilogy, a series of books any Irish person should read. Even as she's disappointing everyone around her, Prim will charm the socks off you, again and again and again.' * The Looking Glass Magazine * `Sparkles with authenticity.' * The Irish Times * Deirdre Sullivan is from Galway and is now living in Dublin, where she works as a teacher. Her hugely acclaimed Tangleweed and Brine, a collection of feminist retellings of classic fairytales, won the Children's Books Ireland Book of the Year Award in 2018 and Young Adult Book of the Year at the Irish Book Awards 2017. Previously, her novel Needlework had won the Honour Award for Fiction at the Children's Books Ireland Awards in 2017.
