The Bad Karma Diaries

ebook

Anna and Denise are always planning something, particularly when they need a bit of extra pocket money! They go into business as "The Party People", running birthday parties for younger kids in the area, and publicise it on their blog.

As a joke, they also style themselves as "Instruments of Karma", junior Robin Hoods who take revenge on bullies on behalf of others in their school.

But they soon discover that revenge is not always so sweet!

|

This is the story of an eventful term: 2nd years Anna and Denise want to make money and have adventures to write up on the blog they're creating. They set up an above-board business running children's parties and a covert vigilante business - meting out other people's revenge (e.g. hiding gymbags, spoiling homework). They defend their actions by claiming that they're fighting injustice. Both explore the other sex - Anna is practical and sets herself up with boyfriends, Denise is romantic and dreams about boys. They are self-absorbed and wrapped up in each other and don't notice the real injustice under their noses: Denise is ignoring her younger sister, Justine, who is suffering. The book relates how they finally use their undoubted ingenuity for a good cause - saving Justine - and how they lose some of their self-absorption and widen their friendship to include others.
