A Midsummer Tights Dream by Louise Rennison (February 2012, HarperCollinsChildren'sBooks, ISBN: 0007156847)Notes: The following review is written by Milly aged eleven, she is the daughter of one of my Euro Crime reviewers. You can read more of Milly's reviews here.
Review: A Midsummer Tights Dream is very good. It's about this child actress called Tallulah Casey. She goes back to Grimbottom, to revisit Dother Hall, her old acting college.
She sees her friends again and has a really good time. Unfortunately, it also means she sees old enemies like the Bottomley sisters and Cain the Bad.
This is a very gripping book. You can't put it down. It's one of my favourite books. My favourite part is when Tallulah throws the tambourine in the air and it hits mean Doctor Lightowler on the head!
Don't worry if you haven’t read the first book, Withering Tights*, because you can still follow the storyline.
I recommend this book for young adults and teenage audiences.
