About The Author

Susie Day grew up by the seaside in Penarth, Wales, with a lisp and a really unfortunate choice of first name.Between books, she works as a copywriter in Birmingham, crochets ridiculous jumpers and inhales tea.Susie now lives in Coventry, England with her partner and a black cat named Pantalaimon.

For the 8-12ish set, in a more contemporary vein, Susie Day's THE SECRETS OF BILLIE BRIGHT is marked out by unforced inclusivity, and Day's ability to tackle complex topics without writing an 'issue' book.
Other text

There's something deliciously Judy Blume-esque about Day's style – she perfectly describes the mixed angst and bravado of growing up, and her characters are filled with warmth.
