Goodreads synopsis:
Iris Dancy’s free-spirited mum has left for Tunisia, her dad’s rarely sober and her brother’s determined to fight anyone with a pair of fists.
When a family of travellers move into the overgrown paddock overnight, her dad looks set to finally lose it. Gypsies are parasites he says, but Iris is intrigued. As her dad plans to evict the travelling family, Iris makes friends with their teenage son. Trick Deran is a bare knuckle boxer who says he’s done with fighting, but is he telling the truth?
When tools go missing from the shed, the travellers are the first suspects. Iris’s brother, Sam, warns her to stay away from Trick; he’s dangerous, but Iris can no longer blindly follow her brother’s advice. He’s got secrets of his own, and she’s not sure he can be trusted himself.
Infinite Sky is a family story about betrayal and loyalty, and love.

This book just keeps catching my eye, and I never seem to pick it up. I went to an author event to meet Matt Haig in Cambridge last week, and again, I saw this book, sitting, staring at me from one of the offers tables. For whatever reason, I still didn't go for it (probably the pile of books I'd already purchased that day!), but one day, I think I'm going to have to cave and pick it up.
Have you read Infinite Sky? What did you think of it? Let us know in the comments below. I'd love to hear your opinions!

I've never even heard of this but I love the mention of Tunisia (that's where part of Star Wars was filmed!)
