This novel-in-verse might float like a butterfly, but it pulls no punches in this, at times, brutal exploration of bullying and body-image. Protagonist Lily starts as friendless and in despair but finds strength in her family and, ultimately, the boxing ring.

The writing hooks you in straightaway, the sparse words punching above their weight and pulling you into a clinch. For fans of Sarah Crossan this is a must-read.
