‘How To’ Guide books aren’t supposed to be works of fiction, are they? (Even if some of the advice they give can be difficult to believe!) And writing manuals don't often tell a story, even if they tell you how to write one.
Frances Nolan is a young girl with a problem - she reads too much. So much, in fact, that she begins to think she is a character in a novel that she's writing. This 'beautifully-angled novel about growing up and breaking down' (Richard Coles) is also a multi-layered book-within-a-book, cleverly charting the creative process of writing a novel and exploring the complex relationship between fact and fiction.
