Borrow / Agree or disagree?
By Agnes Owens
Jen has no friends, is nearly 14 and thinks she's "thin, plain and has no personality." Her mother is also thin and plain but Aunty Belle, fat and heavily made up (and a successful shoplifter), has more life about her and insists on a party for her birthday. "Jen's Party" is shorter and lighter than the other novella in this collection. "Bad Attitudes" is a gritty tale of murder, tinkers, dodgy councillors and boarded up flats.
