'Bad, Bad Thing' is the coming-of-age story of Seb, a high-spirited, witty fourteen-year-old who finds herself bored with home, school, and her best friend, Lavinia. Seb is the neighbour of sixteen-year-old Alex, who is likeable, relaxed, sporty and good-looking. His only problem, according to Seb, is his taste in girlfriends. He's just dumped Bonnie (the Queen of Upper School and Lavinia's sister), to go out with Rachel. Bonnie is feared throughout the school for her nastiness, and when Seb gets caught up in Bonnie's plans for revenge on Rachel, the consequences are far, far worse than she ever could have imagined.
Seb underestimates the depths of Bonnie's scheming and the lengths she will go to in order to even the score. Before she knows it, Seb has lost Lavinia's friendship and her classmates' respect. In the process of trying to win back what she has lost, she finds out a lot about friendship, God, good and evil. And she learns that what you see is sometimes nothing like what you get.
'Bad, Bad Thing' is a satirical novel that explores questions of choice, loyalty and moral values.
