It's been a while since I updated this community, so to get things going again, I'm spamming you with a big post:)
As I reported before I bought a series of teenbooks by popular Dutch author Carry Slee. The stories are not related, but each book deals with a different group of teenagers and a different 'big issue', such as 'drugs' or 'death'. The first book I read of her was Spijt! (Regret) about bullying. Below is the rest of my reviews.
