Her second novel, The Figgs , was short-listed for the 2019 Stephen Leacock Memorial Medal for Humour. A SMART AND RELEVANT YA FEMINIST DYSTOPIA: In the wake of the #MeToo movement, many girls and women were left questioning whether there were still men they could trust in the world. The Hill attempts to answer this question. INTERSECTING THEMES OF GENDER, RACE, AND CLIMATE CHANGE: There are few, if any, YA books that illustrate the impact of climate change on gender and racial inequality. The Hill shows us the implications of inaction. TWISTS AND TURNS: The narrator, Wren, embarks on an adventure riddled with unpredictability, suspense, and excitement.
