I turn to face her and shout at the top of my voice, ‘Where’s Dawn?’

‘How is your leg?’ I asked.

Win smiled. ‘Still hurts like heck. How was the rest of your summer?’

I smiled, too. ‘Awful.’ I shook my head to steel myself against him. ‘I heard you’re seeing Alison Wheeler.’

‘Yes, Anya, I am,’ Win replied after a pause. ‘Word moves quickly.’

And hearts even more so. ‘I once told you that you’d get over me faster than you thought, and I was right.’

‘Anya . . .’ he said.

'Kite Spirit' is a book about flying and falling and learning to fly again. Here is Cat the Circus Artist on her way up to the Cloud Swing. Cat inspired the character of Annalisa Pain in 'Kite Spirit'. This photograph was taken at The Circus Space in London where Kite trains in my story.

Dawn’s never late. I check the time again: 8.51. I think I know what’s happened now. She must have turned up early, all stressed out, and I had the radio cranked up so loud I didn’t hear her knocking. I bet she’s already gone and she’ll be livid with me later for cutting it so fine. I knock for one last time but it’s quiet in her flat. I expect she’s been sitting in the exam hall since school opened. That’ll be why she’s not answering my text either. . .

THE 5TH WAVE by Rich Yancey – (about 50 pages in) – This book will be released in the spring and it’s supposed to be HUGE! After only reading 50 pages, I already know why. It’s amazing! The story instantly grabs you (like from the first line) and sucks you in. I’m hooked!
