![]() I knew absolutely nothing going in to this novel. That changed when Luke moved in next door and mistakes Norah shooing off a bird for a flirtatious wave. She doesn’t leave her house very often, she takes the bottom step twice and she most definitely doesn’t kiss boys. Instead, her love and bravery opens a window to unexpected truths … ![]() Norah is determined to be the girl she thinks Luke deserves: a ‘normal’ girl, her skies unfiltered by the lens of mental illness. But a chance encounter on the doorstep changes everything: Luke, her new neighbour. For her, the outside is sky glimpsed through glass, or a gauntlet to run between home and car. Summary: Agoraphobia confines Norah to the house she shares with her mother. ![]() Until one day, i was choosing a book to read and Under Rose-Tainted Skies came in to my eye line. It was advertised a lot while we were at YALC this year, and i knew i had a copy at home, but i still wasn’t in the mood to pick it up and read it. I’d never read the back of it or never picked up a copy in store (i think it was the garish pink that put me off!) but one day, i put a copy in my basket and that was it. ![]() Admittedly, i knew nothing about it anyway. Just before the release and shortly after, it was being made a very big deal of online, and i wasn’t quite sure why. I was put off by this novel for a long time. ![]()
