For me there was no real storyline. It felt like a passage of time, a very long and drawn out diary entry. Elizabeth’s style of writing is ok, easy to read, she has a very good knowledge of the mod era, being that she is was brought up at that time, which she has reintegrated well in the book. As I turned each page I was expecting the pace to pick up, something drastic to happen, but I was let down. This book is about two girls, best friends, hitting womanhood and each deciding what they want to do with their lives, and whether or not their choices are the right ones to make. Sandra is happy to settle down early and be a housewife, Linda has bigger ideas of travelling the world and getting out of Chelmsford. However friendship often stands in the way.
