Sarah organises a birthday road trip for her younger sister Juliette's fortieth, just the two of them hitting the road in a rented campervan and heading for Scotland. Their lives have gone in very different directions, Juliettes married with two children and Sarah is living the single life

Theres a lot to like about this book, on the surface its lighthearted but underneath is explores much deeper - two sisters, two lives and the undeniable bond that unites them. An unapologetic and raw portrayal of teenage angst full of wrong signals, wrong men and many mistakes, Sarah's teenage years were definitely more exciting than mine but there was plenty I could relate to.

Told in dual timelines, Sarah at fifteen and Sarah now, it takes the sisters on a journey of discovery with great characters along the way. Its sharp, witty, poignant and relatable all rolled into one, if you like character driven novels this is definitely a book worth reading

My thanks to Harper Collins UK and NetGalley for the early read, I was under no obligation and all opinions expressed are my own.
