Adulthood isn’ t quite what Ellie Allard dreamed it would be when she was fourteen years old. Though she’ s got her beautiful daughter Lottie, her trusty cat Stella and life-long best friends in Magda and Nadine, 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 rent on her poky little flat. But this year on her birthday, it seems it’ s time 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. Bringing the same warmth and humour to an adult novel as she does to her work for younger readers, Jacqueline Wilson finally answers the questions her fans have been asking her for years in this uplifting, life-affirming book about friendship, family, and finding fulfilment in unexpected places.
