Jenny, Rosie and Selin have been best friends since school. Their teenage years were spent drinking too much wine in the park, dressing up for Friday night, and making the wrong choices with the wrong men because tomorrow seemed a very long way off.
Eleven riotous years later, Jenny realises something. After more than a decade of waiting for her real life to begin, nothing has really changed. Here she is, still hung-over in the park, still dressed up in Friday night clothes and about to make her most inappropriate choice of man yet - a shy but somehow irresistible eighteen-year-old. But Jenny's not the only one waiting for real life to begin. And when tragedy turns their world upside down, all three friends are forced to realise that the real 'growing up' is still to come...

MAJOR downsizing of the 'ole TBR, so decided to skip this one.
Sharing with Camis, via xallroyx and an m-bag. :)
received for camis m-bag!
traveling to camis via slow boat!
Received safely in my m-bag - thank you!
Whoops - have had this one for rather a long time! Finally made it off Mount TBR and it was worth the wait. I really felt for all of the characters, especially Jen, the narrator. I fond myself smiling and crying along with all of them, through triumphs and tragedies.
Will look for a new home for this soon.
