Noah Can't Even

Product Information

Anche il comportamento di Noah mi è sembrato un po' ripetitivo e ridondante e alla lunga mi ha stancato. Parental falsehoods, potential half-siblings and crazy school girls are just some of the unwanted dramas Noah finds himself facing. However, it's a twenty-first century comedy - the last five sentences threaten the new equilibrium disastrously - or (I truly hope! But then SHOW us that, show us Noah finally being brave, show how they deal with it, show us love winning the day. I adored Noah and Harry, and I look forward to reading more about them in the sequel, Noah Could Never.

Maar hoe lank dit gaan hou voor Noah op 'n nuwe reis deur die Hel gedwing word, sal ons maar moet sien.Harry Potter battled forces of evil like bazillion of times already when he was 15, and Noah can't even form a coherent sentence without sounding like a mentally challenged caterpillar. The Bookseller ‘Slapstick but wonderfully funny’ Jewish Chronicle ‘A debut I very much loved’ Juno Dawson, author of The Gender Games and role model for Stonewall UK ‘Sweet, barmy, charming, unexpectedly romantic delight of a YA novel. People always like to talk, but ask yourself: in the grand scheme of things, in the total insignificance of our tiny lives in this massive universe, who gives a shit? When Noah's best friend Harry kisses him at a party, Noah is shocked (but not altogether disappointed).

It felt like so much "wackiness" was piled up, one absurd thing after another, unloading on poor Noah.And while I got a vague sense of Harry, he wasn't really on page enough for the attraction to feel completely, unquestionably real. At the party, after the self-brought booze ánd the punch have played havoc, Harry tells Noah he's gay - and then kisses Noah. His father disappeared years ago, his mother’s Beyonce tribute act is an unacceptable embarrassment, and his beloved gran is no longer herself. Finding strength and inspiration in the lyrics of "Tubthumping" by Chumbawumba, he eventually ended up working on a range of West End shows and UK tours, co-wrote a feature-length rom-com for the BBC and directed Hollyoaks for C4 / Lime Pictures.
