Crow Country (2011)
“‘Let’s treat ourselves for once and have a meal at the pub.’ Sadie looked up suspiciously from her maths homework, wondering if Ellie was trying to soften her up for something.
Ellie pounced on her, and Sadie shook her off. ‘You don’t have to strangle me.’ Ellie blew a raspberry on Sadie’s neck and danced away. Sadie hadn’t seen her mum so excited since – well, since she’d decided they were moving to the country. Usually, the only thing that catapulted Ellie into such a good mood was a new ...project. And this time the new project must be David, Sadie thought sourly. Did he have any idea what he was in for?
Huddled in their parkas, Sadie and Ellie hurried through the frosty night toward the bright lights of the pub. When Ellie pushed open the door, a wave of warmth and noise rolled out to engulf them. It was surprisingly busy for a pub in a speck of a town in the middle of nowhere. Sadie hung back while Ellie pranced in and started chatting away to the old men who propped up the bar, shrugging off her jacket, shaking her long fair hair over her shoulders, laughing and joking with everyone.MoreLess
