Bunty's Reviews > Glitter Gets Everywhere

Yvette Clark's charming first novel, Glitter Gets Everywhere, had me laughing and crying in equal measure. The story is told through the eyes of Kitty, a girl from North London who is trying to make sense of life, family and friendships after the death of her mum. Kitty is helped on her journey by a comedic and endearing bunch of characters on both sides of the Atlantic including a blue haired boy in New York and a fat, farty dog in London.

This book washed over me like a wonderfully warm blanket and I didn't want it to finish. Kitty is an adorable heroine who is able to show her vulnerable side whilst also being brave and funny (often without realising it!). It is impossible to read this book without becoming one of Kitty's friends and sharing her love of paint colours, New York and her mum.
