Being an adult isn''t quite what Ellie Allard dreamed it would be when she was fourteen years old. Though she''s got her beautiful daughter Lottie, life-long best friends in Magda and Nadine and her trusty cat Stella, her love life is non-existent and she feels like she''s been living on auto-pilot, just grateful to be able to afford the mortgage on her pokey little flat. But this year on her birthday, the universe seems to decide it''s time to for all that to change - whether Ellie wants it to or not. As she navigates new, exciting and often choppy waters, she''s about to discover that life will never stop surprising you - if only you let it.

Bericht
Nuanced and refreshing... beautifully told. There is real comfort in feeling seen again in these adult lives that are just as confusing, wonderful, unfair, unpredictable and full of potential at 40 as they were for our teenage selves. But everybody is doing OK. You're doing OK. And that reassurance, really, is what we've always gone to Wilson for. Guardian
