Grrrls On The Side by Carrie Pack

Heather and Tabby used to be best friends, then Heather went off with the popular gang all blonde hair and hoop earring wearing barbie style copies of each other whilst Tabby hangs around with Mike a not to bad guy with some musical taste.

When Tabby and Mike go to a gig together, Tabby gets a copy of a magazine for the girls at the concert encouraging them to join Riot Grrrl a group to hang out with like minded girls who all have a common interest in music at least.

As Tabby gets trouble from kids at school, the girls in her new club she's a member of hang out more, making their friendship stronger and Tabby realises she likes Kate, a lot. Kate refuses to be confined by her sexuality and Tabby finds herself wondering her feelings towards Kate could be mutual. When the girls start to hang out more, Tabby's mum is very accepting of them both as a couple as she too delves into a new relationship, only differnce being that she is straight and dating a man.

The book shows the feel and pride of girls sticking together and taking nothing without a fight, being bisexual, lesbian, straight, from a different culture or hate and just dealing with fighting for important issues such as animal testing. These girls are there for each other to lean on and support despite what gets thrown at them in their lives, they have support.

Many thanks to the publishers for allowing me to review this book for them!
