Quill & Quire review for Break On Through
“From its original plot, centred on the world of breakdancing, to its determined, complex heroine, Break on Through is an engaging slice-of-life read for teens interested in something beyond the usual boys-and-gossip plotlines… It’s hugely refreshing to read such a thoroughly urban Canadian novel – the hip-hop-flavoured story plays well against the backdrop of big-city downtown-versus-suburbia tension.”

Complex is always a good word to have in a review. Unless it is attached to “overly” or “needlessly” or some such mot. But I digress. Yay! Yay! Yay!
