Fiction by Michelle Gallen
Majella O'Neill lives in a small town in Northern Ireland and works in a fish and chips shop. Her mum is an alcoholic, her dad disappeared long ago, and her grandmother has just been murdered. It's been a bad week, especially for a girl like Majella who hates changes (and pointless conversation, and loud noises, and a lot of other things).
I really liked Majella, but I didn't love this book. I felt disappointed by the ending, the story didn't really go anywhere, and it wasn't funny, despite the promises of humor on the cover. Still, the author created a great character, and that's worth something.
