Chasing Charlie Duskin

Charlie Duskin is running.

Fleeing from failures and memories and friends who have given up on her. And she’s not only running, she’s chasing things – like a father who will talk to her, friends who don’t think she’s as invisible as a piece of cling wrap, and an experience with a boy in which she doesn’t look like an idiot.

But Charlie Duskin is about to have the best summer of her life. She’s about to meet a friend who’ll change her forever. She’s about to fall in love. She just doesn’t know it yet.

The Life and Times of Gracie Faltrain

STAR (noun): any large body like the sun, intensely hot and producing its own energy by nuclear reactions

SOCCER STAR (noun): Gracie Faltrain

Goal-kicking, super-girl, soccer star. Gracie Faltrain is on her way. To the National Championships. To Nick. To everything she’s ever wanted. Or so she thinks. Gracie’s about to find out that life is messy. And hard. And beautiful.

There’s a shadow falling across her mum and dad. Her best friend is about to leave town. She’s trying desperately to be with the right boy, on the edge of falling in love with the wrong boy. She’s rushing headlong into screwing up, making up, trying to keep it all together. Welcome to the life and times of Gracie Faltrain.

From first-time novelist Cath Crowley comes this sometimes hilarious, sometimes poignant look at what good can happen when your world is falling apart.

Gracie Faltrain Takes Control

Gracie Faltrain is back and she couldn’t be happier. Her team won the Championships, she scored a few goals and a boyfriend!

Just as she’s settling down to a new season of soccer, the stakes are raised. Coach has entered the team in the Firsts – a boys’ only league. To prove herself, Gracie has to fight harder than ever before. The other teams will do anything to keep her out of the game, and if she makes it, they’ll do anything to see her lose.

But Gracie is sick of losing. She’s sick of seeing friends, like Martin and Alyce, unhappy. Gracie Faltrain has decided it’s time to take control and even the score for everyone, on and off the field.

Gracie Faltrain Gets it Right (Finally)

As Gracie begins Year 12, she has only one thing on her mind, and it’s not school work. It’s not even Martin, now that he’s dumped her for the third time. It’s soccer: a new season, a new team, a new league. This is the big time, the state trials, and Gracie can’t wait. Except there’s one small problem. She’s no longer the biggest fish in the pond, and one of the other players is the cousin of her arch enemy, Annabelle Orion.

Gracie wants to get it right this year, but everything seems to be going wrong – she hardly has time to see her friends, Martin won’t talk to her, and she’s falling even further behind at school.

Gracie needs help both on and off the field, but when it shows up, it is not from the person she expected …
