After Ros touches back down in the UK after
3 years in US, she’s living in an exact replica of her bedroom in her parents’
shed, in need of a job and reconnecting with friends. She sends out a message
to all the contacts in her old mobile phone and receives one back from an ex.
Not just an ex but THE ex, the one that got away. As she revisits this romance
and readjusts to her friends all having new lives, Ros is about to discover if
her 20s really was all that or if things are about to get better.
I really enjoyed this book, Ros is flawed but likeable, you’ll laugh and cringe
at her while cheering her on. Kelk does a great job at portraying that awkward
stage in your early 30s where some of your friends are moving on and settling
down, while some are single, free and want to continue on their 20s carefree
lifestyle. There is romance but I think the heart of the story is the
friendships and the journey Ros goes through personally. That it’s very easy to
miss the past when you’ve got rose tinted glasses on! Another smash from
Lindsey. I read this in May during lockdown and it was exactly what I was
looking for then in a book. And I really want to go to a roller disco now!
