Treacle Town
This book focuses on a boy called Connor, who goes through many struggles during the course of the book, feeling stuck in the place where he lives; hence the name: Treacle Town. But there is one beacon of light for him: slam poetry. The book ends with the reader not knowing whether this has a lasting impact on his life at all, making it feel like we've just seen a slice of Connor's life, and letting you reflect on the messages spoken about in the book.
