  • 3 stars across 4 books
Christine Pillainayagam is a writer and retail strategist, who lives in Kent with her young family and a collection of records, CD's and minidiscs (remember those?). A mild obsession with The Beatles and the desire to write a story that reflected her own experiences growing up as a first-generation immigrant, led her to put that love of music and words into a book. Ellie Pillai Is Brown is her debut novel.

A singer and songwriter, she also writes a blog: thelittlebrownbook.co.uk

    Ellie Pillai is brown, is a very good book and is very well written. It is a very relatable book, with lots of humour. It is all about school.
