Can't Stop Us Now
(Puffin Books)
978-0140323726, RRP £1.95, Paperback
14+ Secondary/Adult
An all female rock band as the basis for gathering an assortment of different characters together and having the problems of exploitation to deal with. A nice idea and the obvious enjoyment of making music is nicely conveyed but the cliches, the sexual exploitation and the way rich daddy solves the problems at the end are a disappointment. The cover is disappointing too, one of the girls is black but while there are pictures of four girls represented none seems to be black. Some mistake ...?
