"This
book was a breath of fresh air... I think it's a brilliant young adult
debut. I read this story in one sitting and I loved it." 4/5

"I think Ms. Smith is very, very talented ....Calling For Angels is a cute
story, one that highlights universal experiences with love and loss,
and one that is written with a surprising maturity given the young age
of its author. Ms. Smith clearly has an extraordinary capacity for
storytelling."

The Story Behind This Book
Alex wrote Calling For Angels at the age of 14, 'as a way of relaxing'. When she entered Red Telephone Books' novel competition, editor Gill James was blown away by the book, which won the contest 'by a street'. Now 17, Alex has a big future, if this delightful romance for younger teens is anything to go by.
