Book: Ocean Pearl

Summary: The pressure builds for Kia, Georgie, Micki and Ace in the sequel to J.C. Burke's acclaimed novel Starfish Sisters. Starfish who surf together stick together ...'  It was Ace who wrote that in Kia, Georgie and Micki's blue booklets on the last day of camp. Yet it's Ace who's ended up ruining everything - ending the Starfish Sisters before they've even begun. The Starfish Sisters should be happy that they're on track to make the Australian Junior Female Surfing Team. But will lies, secrets, fighting - and love - keep them apart?

What I thought: A great sequel. Unfortunately there isn't another one on the way.
