Friends Like Us: Kat by Jenny McLachlan

Fashionista Kat is banished to a remote Swedish Island for the summer when her parents catch her (sort of) kissing her sister’s ex-boyfriend. It’s a nightmare – the island’s one shop doesn’t even sell clothes, her friends are hundreds of miles away, and the only way to even get phone signal is to swim out to a tiny rock just off the shore.

The silver lining is Leo, the ripped local boy in whom Kat sees serious boyfriend potential. But when her attempts to woo him don’t go according to plan, Kat has to dig deep inside and figure out what’s truly important to her. Far away from everything she loves, what can help Kat embrace who she really is on the inside?

One of four connected books about best friends – don’t miss the rest of the Friends Like Us series: Bea, Betty and Pearl.

*Note: This book was originally published with the title Sunkissed.

Kat’s summer is ruined when she’s forced to spend it in Sweden without her friends, or even worse, a phone signal! After a whole summer apart, will they still be Friends Like Us? A hilarious, romantic, coming-of-age summer journey, perfect for fans of Geek Girl
