From E. Lockhart, author of the New York Times bestseller and Zoella Book Club 2016 title, We Were Liars. Two teen theatre-fanatics. One dream. And SUMMER DRAMA CAMP. All-round theatre-enthusiast, Sarah - better known by her showbiz name, Sayde - is a girl with ambitions too big for the small and conventional town she lives in. Her life doesn't have the razzle-dazzle she craves. For once she wants to feel special, noticed and be the centre of attention. This summer Sadye has her talents set on Wildewood's prestigious theatre summer camp. And with her best friend Demi - a flamboyant falsetto, who is equally thrilled to be leaving their small town of Brenton - they will both experience a season of hormones, hissy fits, jazz hands, song and dance, true love and unitards! But despite all the glitz and glam, there comes rivalry and competition, and Sadye will have to prove her talents more than she has ever had to before. Summer at Wildewood will not only determine Sadye's future - but will also test her friendships.

It was a really good book. It had a lot of very intense emotions and important things to say. * The Whispering Of The Pages *

 

I LOVE when I get a new E.Lockhart book. She is one of those authors you just love and get excited when she brings out a new book and you have to pre-order it straightaway. Dramarama has to be in my top 5 favourite reads from Lockhart. It was fun, fast-paced but also serious in some parts. I really loved the characters and the plot. They flowed nicely together with Lockharts style of writing. * Words From a Reader *

 

I loved almost everything about it. The journey was a fascinating one, not in the least because it was one filled with jazz hands and a touch of razzle dazzle. * Page To Stage Reviews *

 

Summery, YA, contemporary - give me it. * George Lester *
