Wavelength
Blurb Oliver's world has shrunk. It's about his final exams. It's about the magic 80 average he needs to get into uni, get his dream job and get cashed up. If only he can focus - away from the chaos of home and his mum's booming muffin business. A study break in the small coastal town where his dad lives sounds ideal. But Oliver arrives cashless, booklets, phoneless and fuming, to find his study refuge is home to an array of elderly citizens and a girl who seems to hate him on sight. Sunny Haven Recreation and Leisure Centre is like some weird parallel universe where nobody is on his wavelength. The 80 he so badly wants is fast slipping out of his read. |
