Books like London belongs to us by Sarra Manning
Seventeen‑year‑old Sunny is a bit of a pushover, but when she receives a photo of her boyfriend kissing another girl, she decides it’s time to act. Starting at 8 p.m. in Crystal Palace and racing through Camden, Shoreditch, Soho, Kensington and Notting Hill, Sunny’s frantic 12‑hour dash ends at 8 a.m. in Alexandra Palace. Along the way she encounters a host of unlikely characters—friends, foes, famous bands and even rickshaw drivers—so that her honest love letter to London shows the city is made of its people. Her adventure also brings her in contact with devilishly handsome French cousins, Jean‑Luc and Vic, who add romance to the mix.
