PAPER AVALANCHE

The more she collects, the more I disappear

Ro's mum is a compulsive hoarder. 

Their home is a horror show.

So Ro has become an expert at hiding: from social services, from friends, form having any sort of normal life. Until Tanvi turns up, and Ro's carefully constructed walls start to come crashing down around her...

Sometimes it takes a real friend to show you who you truly are.

Published by David Fickling Books, 2019
