I just finished this novel and can give it a hearty endorsement. It starts out as a coming-of-age story and morphs, sort of, into a Newspaper story.
Here’s the Amazon blurb:
It’s a semi-autobiographical novel by Trent Dalton a died in the wool Newspaperman, having worked at The Courier-Mail an Australian Newspaper in Brisbane.
Writer Brian K. Vaughan and artist Cliff Chiang launched their Paper Girls comic series in 2015 alongside colorist Matt Wilson and designer Jared K. Fletcher.
