'Dear Dylan' by Siobhan Curham - Isabel King


Do you like heart-warming, powerful novels? If you do, then ‘Dear Dylan’ by Siobhan Curham is the one for you.

‘Dear Dylan’ is about a teenage girl who is going through a difficult time in her life.

This book is very different to normal ones. The entire thing is written in e-mail format and I couldn't help being slightly impressed and jealous that Siobhan Curham could still get all the emotions to come through.

Georgie (the main character) is in love with an actor called Dylan Curtland. She tries to contact him via e-mail, but later discovers that is his mum, Nancy who is answering them.

Although the book is all about a background of abuse and violence within a family, Siobhan Curham has managed to show this through a funny and optimistic way.

I would recommend this book to anyone (between the age of 10 and adult) that is searching for a sad, but funny book that makes you cry one minute and burst out laughing the next!

That was my review of ‘Dear Dylan’ by Siobhan Curham. I hope you pick this book up sometime and enjoy it as much as I did.
