ELLE Best Books of 2015 The Reading Agency:
Books of 2015 Mickey Donnelly is smart, which isn't a good
thing in his part of town. Despite having a dog called Killer and being
in love with the girl next door, everyone calls him `gay'. It doesn't
help that his best friend is his little sister, Wee Maggie, and that
everyone knows he loves his Ma more than anything in the world.
He doesn't think much of his older brother Paddy and really doesn't like
his Da. He dreams of going to America, taking Wee Maggie and Ma with
him, to get them away from Belfast and Da. Mickey realises it's all down
to him.
He has to protect Ma from herself. And sometimes, you have to be a bad boy to be a good son.
