Scarlett-Cathy Cassidy (Book Review)

Scarlett Book Review




Scarlett is troubled and has been to 5 schools in 2 years. That's when her mum has had enough she sends her to her dads house in Ireland with her stepsister & step mum. Scarlett thinks Ireland will be so dumb it has nothing to do until she meets some mysterious boy. Then her life is better than she thought.


Scarlett is a good book for ages from 8-100 it shows you the feeling for a girl who didn't really get listened to - Lauren aged 12


I loved this book so much i don't even know how to explain it-Samantha aged 11


i love Scarlett it is the best book i have ever read i love you Cathy Cassidy all your books are brilliant if i was Scarlett i would wish for my own copy of the book because i read the libraries I LOVE IT i think you should write more series to do with Scarlett. Elise -aged 11
