Reviews for Just in Case

'A modern Catcher in the Rye ... written with generosity and warmth but also with an edgy, unpredictable intelligence' -- The Times 'Just in Case is brilliant. Meg Rosoff writes like a dream. Even the unbelievable was believable' -- Sally Gardner, author of I, Coriander Praise for How I Live Now: 'That rare, rare thing, a first novel with a sustained, magical and utterly fauntless voice. I knew she could persuade me to believe almost anything' -- Mark Haddon, author of The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time 'A crunchily perfect knock-out of a debut novel' -- Guardian
