'Just finished reading PJ Kelly's book The Good Teacher and I really enjoyed it. It is written in a similar vein to classic Jodie Picoult books where a social issue is questioned and challenged and those who work with vulnerable children in our communities will find it engaging. Great first novel for PJ Kelly.' - Maggie Dent, Author of Saving Our Children from Our Chaotic World 'The tale of a good teacher who follows her moral compass and risks damnation. A decade long journey that culminates in a gripping John Grisham-like-climax. A book club favourite. It's not surprising that movie producers are circling around The Good Teacher.' - Mark Naglazas, The Sunday Times 'I just finished reading PJ's book - what a cracking story, I couldn't put it down. I hope someone out there is optioning it for a movie or TV series - it's got everything - interesting plot, great characters, tension, drama, pathos, black comedy and even a courtroom drama. At its centre is one of the most important moral and philosophical issues of our times and a dilemma to solve. Wonderful - many, many congratulations.' - Jenny Davis, Author of Dear Heart 'What an incredible debut. So well written and I loved that this was so relatable as a teacher and, I would imagine, eye opening for people not in education. Brilliant story and hard to put down.' - Jessica Sanders, Deputy Principal and Teacher 'It will have you questioning what is right and wrong in this thrilling moral dilemma. A great contribution to the literary world from a local author which I enjoyed immensely.' - Jennifer Merigan, Have A Go News 'Date night - cheese, wine, the couch and 'The Good Teacher'. Two nights in a row, this one's a keeper. I can't put it down.' - Beck Strong, Education Assistant
