A young adult novel told by Zelda. She and she grew up in Canberra and then went to NYC for a year because of her mothers job. Now she has moved to Sydney for her father’s work. The story has her trying to make friends and adjust to a new school. It also alternates with her doing the same thing in New York. There she met Prim, a young fashion model, who does work for her mother’s modeling agency. Now she is getting to know Stella as they work on a project together for her Drama class.

This is about making friends and first dips into relationships and first kisses. Zel is out to her supportive family so this is really her adjusting to being away from home twice. It makes for an okay story but the two parts didn’t really connect or resonate with me. I could just have easily read the Sydney chapters with Stella and be at the same place at the end of the book. Geared towards younger YA readers and up, there is no intimacy, hard partying or dangerous activities. (3.5 Stars)
