Rich has lost out on the design for the big alco-pops deal,but Nick, the advertising boss, is letting him live in the fantastic flat above the office-for free! Plus Nick is employing him to do story-boards, so Rich's artwork is actually making him a living-not bad for someone who's still at college. Of course, that's if Rich can actually be bothered to stay at college. is it really worth all the stupid still-lives with lemons? Unfortunately, Rich's lovely single life in his own flat is about to disappear-Bonny is moving in. Daughter of Nick's mad friend Tigger (says it all, really), she can't stand living with her mum any more. And Nick knows just the place for her. So now Rich is shacked up with some depressed, dizzy girl he's only met about twice in his life. Can things actually get worse? Oh yes.

From School Library Journal
Grade 9 Up–In this second volume in the trilogy, Rich works to get his life back on track after the loss of a lucrative ad agency account. Allowed to live rent-free in his boss's flat above the agency, he tackles the overdue college assignments he needs to complete to avoid flunking out and makes tentative steps at a reconciliation with his parents. He supports himself by drawing storyboards and wrestles with his feelings for beautiful but shallow Portia, who is willing to move to a new level of sexual involvement. His efforts are complicated by the arrival of Bonny, who is trying to break away from her overbearing mother. The flat's owners allow her to move into the apartment with Rich, who is sympathetic but not particularly pleased by this development. This fast-paced novel has the feel and language of a British sitcom. Although the plot is fairly predictable, its portrayal of contemporary London student life and its many well-drawn characters make it an absorbing read.–Ginny Gustin, Sonoma County Library System, Santa Rosa, CA
