Bailey asked Alice Oseman:

Hello Alice! I have a question, I heard that 'Less than Zero' was one of your favourite books. I noticed this was also in 'Solitaire' (on Charlie's bedside table) and I was wondering if there is a reason as to why he was reading this particular book, and if there's a link between Charlie and the content in this book? Thank you so much, I can't wait for 'Radio Silence'!

Alice Oseman Hi! There's no link between Charlie and the contents of 'Less Than Zero' - it's simply a reference to my own connection to that book, and how it was one of the two major influences that encouraged me to write Solitaire (J.D. Salinger's 'The Catcher in the Rye' is the other one) :)
