Sixteen-year-old Marlon has made his mum a promise – he’ll never follow his big brother, Andre, down the wrong path. But when a date ends in tragedy, Marlon finds himself hunted. Now he must become the person he never wanted to be to protect everyone he loves. Alex O'Connell, "CHILDREN’S BOOK OF THE WEEK | Review: Indigo Donut by Patrice Lawrence", The Times, 22 July 2017. This compelling thriller from an award-winning writer is distinguished by brilliant nuanced characterisation." The GuardianLaat ik beginnen met aangeven dat dit boek me al vanaf het begin niet bijzonder aansprak. Ik zou dit boek zelf nooit gekocht hebben in de boekwinkel. Dat komt met name omdat ik YA contemporaries in veel gevallen tegen vind vallen. Maar dat komt ook omdat ik merk dat de bendecultuur echt heel goed en invoelbaar geschreven moet zijn om voor mij herkenbaar te worden. Ik heb, en wellicht is dat een tekortkoming, moeite me daarmee te verbinden. Orangeboy has become a book that I’ve found complex to review. Foremost I want to say this: ‘Orangeboy is gripping, intriguing and emotional. It’s an excellent mystery, with drama and a wonderful set of relationships for the reader to explore, both friendships and the family dynamics. Just go and read it now!’

Not cool enough, not clever enough, not street enough for anyone to notice me. I was the kid people look straight through. Not anymore. Not since Mr Orange.” I enjoyed Marlon's voice for the most part of Orangeboy - it felt authentic and representative of a modern-day teenager growing up in North London, with enough slang and considered syntax to make him sound real. Some of this fell away towards the end of the novel, but overall it was good. Not cool enough, not clever enough, not street enough for anyone to notice me. I was the kid people looked straight through. Not any more. Not Since Mr Orange.

Zijn moeder, maar ook zijn beste vriendin en de vriend van zijn moeder, geven miljoenen signalen dat ze hem willen helpen en geloven en naar hem willen luisteren. Maar elke keer weer besluit Marlon informatie achter te houden, te ontkennen en alle problemen zelf te willen oplossen. En als het gaat om mishandeling, inbraak, drugshandel en wapenbezit, dan kan ik daar persoonlijke met mijn hoofd gewoon niet bij.
