Product Description

Surely a diary is private - but when Tom Palmer found one thrown in a skip, he didn't feel too bad about reading it. And he found it contained fascinating. The diarist, Hannah, writes about the attraction she feels for the charismatic new English teacher at her school, and the whole frantic build up to her sister's wedding. But she also mentions glimpsing a ghostly figure of her own self as a down-and-out. Tom is told that to see such a ghost of oneself (a Fetch), is an omen of one's death, so he worries about what has happened to her. He tries to find her, even if only to give the diary back. But is the girl he meets at the end really Hannah - or the Fetch?

This is haunting but extremely well written
I first read this book when i was 13 and after I read it I was left thinking of it for weeks after wondering about different questions that hadn't been answered. I hankered after a sequel but as of yet there is still no sign of one. It traces a girl's diary read by a boy who finds it lying in a skip. The diary discloses her fragile life and how she keeps seeing visions of herself.

This is not for the under 12s because it haunted me!
well worth reading by teenagers and adults.

Amazing Book
i just got this book from the libary about 4 hours ago...since i got it i could not take my eyes away
from the moment you read it you are hooked
the story line is great
and once i finished it i wanted to know more
so many questions left unanswered and i felt as if i was in there with this young lad
a must read for teenagers!!!!
