Twenties Girl
“I’m really not sure what’s going on.
We’ve agreed to meet at Lingtons in Oxford Street, because it’s central and we both know it. And also because whenever we arrange to meet up, Dad suggests Lingtons. He’s unfailingly loyal to Uncle Bill, plus he has a Lingtons Gold VIP Card, which gets you free coffee and food, anywhere, anytime. (I don’t. I only have Friends and Family, fifty percent off. Not that I’m complaining.) As I arrive at the familiar chocolate-brown-and-white frontage, I’m quite... apprehensive. Maybe Dad’s got some really bad news to break. Like Mum’s ill. Or he’s ill.
And even if he hasn’t, what am I going to say about my bust-up with Natalie? How will he react when he realizes his flake of a daughter has invested loads of money in a business only to walk out on it? Just the thought of seeing his face crumple in disappointment—yet again—makes me wince. He’ll be devastated. I can’t tell him. Not yet.MoreLess

I love the story and the characters! The author knows exactly how to make you laugh and cry at the same time. It's as if you're transported to the 20's by the characters and the value of family. I would also love to see this in a movie. :)Write Review:
