Revue de presse

Where do I start describing how AMAZING this novel is? I truly am speechless. Vendetta is a compelling, heartbreaking, and heart-wrenching novel that I couldn t put down...It was faced paced, intense, on the edge of your seat and getting hot underneath the collar. The plot is everything I want in a YA novel. (fangirlish.com)

Vendetta by [Catherine Doyle] is potentially the best book of the year. Scrap that, that I've ever read. (Blame My Bookshelf)

With its families at war and star-crossed lovers caught in the middle, Doyle's YA debut reads like a modern twist on Romeo and Juliet by way of The Sopranos. (Publishers Weekly)

I stayed up until Late o clock finishing Vendetta by [Catherine Doyle]. It's AWESOME. Great fighting. Great kissing. (C.J. Daugherty, author of Night School)

Doyle skillfully prepares her readers for a narrative that blends thriller and romance, building tension in the former and accelerating the physical intensity of the latter...this is a novel that will keep its readers turning the pages. Irish young-adult literature has, in the person of Doyle, a welcome addition to its ranks. (Robert Dunbar, The Irish Times)

As a romance it smoulders beautifully: Nic and Sophie are smart as well as gorgeous, the dialogue crackles, and their respective families attempts to forbid them from seeing one another gives their love an added intensity. It impresses as a crime drama too. (Books For Keeps)

Vendetta is a YA novel the likes of which I can t say I've ever read before. A grimy, tense, crime/gang thriller with a dynamic cast of characters; Vendetta brings drama and realism to a dark story of grudges, revenge and passion. (Alice Oseman, author of Solitaire and I Was Born for This)

The five boys are wonderfully varied characters, and Sophie stands up for herself in the face of what would for anyone else be an intimidating display of hotness. The plot twists between fun teenage romantic interactions and bone chilling intrigue without losing a beat. (Lauren James, author of The Next Together

An exciting story full of sexy, sexy boys, Vendetta would make an incredible movie. (Louise O'Neill, author of Only Ever Yours) - - - ---
