Now I don’t know about you, but I heart all things Andy Warhol. What I love even more, is a book that is all about creating an underground art movement ala Andy and co.

Notes From the Teenage Underground by Simmone Howell is that book. It’s hella-freakin’-cool.
Seventeen year old Gem and her friends, Mira and Lo, have decided to go ‘underground’. Their activities will be ‘extreme’, ‘anti-establishment’, ‘avant-garde’ and ‘debauched’.

Oh, I don’t need to tell you anything about it, you will love it. Fact.

You will dig the author Simmone Howell too, we deffo do!
