註釋A witty lively novel, Being Me is the perfect companion to The Silent Striker, a feminine take on the football world. Meet Adele Vialli: 14 years old, a star footballer. With an aching heart and an impossible frenemy. She is intelligent, funny and resourceful, yet gets into fights all the time. She finds school boring compared to shoplifting, hanging out with her footballer boyfriend, Marcus from The Silent Striker, and having fun making trouble. As the weary school counsellor says: ‘there’s never a dull day with Adele’. ‘An innovative, impressive and well crafted narrative that strikes a chord for young and old alike.’ (Carol Leeming FRSA) ‘A witty, lively novel of growing up female, black, and middle class in contemporaryLondon.Adele inBeing Mesits alongside some other great non-conventional girl YA characters such as Lyra inHis Dark Materialsby Phillip Pullman, Sephy inNoughts and Crossesby Malorie Blackman, Katniss Everdeen of theHunger Gamestrilogy and the fascinating title heroine in Catherine Johnsons’ most recent novel,The Curious Tale of Lady Caraboo’ [SarahChapter blogspot]
