The heartstopping story of a once-in-a-life friendship, for fans of Shuggie Bain, My Brilliant Friend and Just Kids'Juno Loves Legs broke my heart. I never wanted it to end' DOUGLAS STUART, bestselling author of Shuggie Bain and Young Mungo
Juno loves Legs. She's loved him since their first encounter at school in Dublin, where she fought the playground bullies for him. He feels brave with her, she feels safe with him, and together they feel invincible, even if the world has other ideas.
The two find their way from the backstreets and city's pubs to its underground parties and squats, where, on the verge of adulthood, they find a breathing space to begin their real lives. Only Legs's might be taking him somewhere Juno can't follow.
Set during the political and social unrest of the 1980s, as families struggled to survive and their children struggled to be free, this beautiful, vivid novel of childhood friendship is about being young, being hurt, being seen and, most of all, being loved.
'A heartbreaker, and absolutely unforgettable' DONAL RYAN, bestselling author of The Queen of Dirt Island
'This will break your heart in the very best way and leave you laughing in spite of yourself. A backstreet epic. I literally couldn't put it down' JAN CARSON, bestselling author of The Raptures
