You Against Me Reviews

"An intense and arresting love story" * The Sun *
"An outstanding, compelling drama from Downham" * The Bookseller *
"It's one of the most powerful books we've read in an age. Even after finishing, it lingered with us for days . . . Jenny Downham's novel blows other books out of the water" * Sugar *
"I loved it . . . Beautifully written with a painful but penetrating awareness" * Bookbag *
"A tale of love across the social divide in coastal Norfolk, with the edge of a crime novel . . . Split loyalties and the chasm between the young couple's life experiences make their enduring relationship a triumph. Their credible and tender sexual encounter is the calm before the storm, as for Romeo and Juliet" * Observer *
