From the Back Cover

Although Tom Hastings and Jen Wilkinson go to the same school,
their paths have not yet crossed. But when Jen joins Kallis - a boarding
house run by the notorious Mrs Jackson - she and Tom find their lives start
to become entangled.

As the teenage traumas of work, friends, family and sex all unfold, their
complicated lives are followed through a year of their personal diary
entries.
