Report
Utterly self-assured , so, so, so honest and downright brave . Wilde About the Girl is funny , sweet , honest and full of love. Every page is packed with hard-earned wisdom , joy and truth , I loved - truly loved - it. Louise's characters are so real, I felt as though I was sat at the kitchen table, enjoying a mug of (spiked) hot chocolate with Robin, Lacey and Auntie Kath, laughing and crying along with them Lindsey Kelk
