Bridget Hamilton will be with us to launch her debut young adult novel 'We Wait for the Stars', a moving novel written in verse.
About this Event

Bridget's debut novel is full of emotional writing covering friendship, teenage love and bereavement and perfect for fans of Sarah Crossan, Elizabeth Acevedo, Dean Atta.
After losing her dad, Celeste's life feels like it's splintering. Then she makes a new friend in Katie, who shares her love of the beach, and meets Reuben, a fellow photographer. Maybe a new friendship group is just what she needs...
Joining Bridget on stage and leading the conversation about 'We Wait for the Stars' is Lisette Auton, a passionate storyteller and author of four middlegrade novels for Puffin Books.
