What to expect
The BRAND NEW, funny and uplifting novel from bestseller Freya Kennedy. Find out what happens when Derry Girls become Derry Women...
From drab to fab in just one year?
Becca Burnside isn’t sure where it all went wrong...
How did she end up single in her forties, with the highlight of her weekend being a trip to Big Asda with her mum and the only chance of cuddles coming from her dog?
It’s fair to say that Becca’s life isn’t quite where she’d hoped it would be. She already knew that, deep down, but when she finds the time capsule she and her friends made as teenagers and remembers the hopes and dreams sixteen-year-old Becki (with an i) had for the future, she knows she has to do something, and fast.
Refusing to be controlled by her hot flushes and Unexplained Waves of Sadness, Becca is determined to turn things around – for Becki’s sake. But what will it take to prove there’s life in the old girl yet?
Join the most fabulous club in town! Perfect for fans of Serena Terry and Alexandra Potter.
