Overview

THE DOUGHNUT CLUB is about 12-year-old Quinn. She loves her family, but she often feels the odd one out. Not only because she's the only one with red hair and green eyes, but because she would rather be quietly drawing than surfing or rock-climbing, or whatever mad activity her mums and brother Olly might like to do on holiday. Quinn has always known she is donor conceived. She's never been that interested in knowing about their donor. But when Quinn's mums tell her and Olly that they have sixteen donor siblings, Quinn's mind is blown! Maybe one of them will be more like her! The only problem is her parents want them to wait until they are older to contact anyone. As Quinn tries to secretly find out more, she starts to lose sight of what is really important,especially when she starts to believe her worst enemy - the dreaded Monika - could be one of her siblings! Can she find a way back to her family, whilst finding a way to tell them how she really feels? Kristina Rahim is the most amazing debut talent, shining a light on queer families and for this book in particular, donor-conceived children. Inspired by her own family, Kristina's writing is authentic and heartfelt. Winner of the PFD Queer Prize, Nosy Crow scooped her up in a 3 book deal and are proud to publish her debut and many books beyond that.
