Every now and again you read a book which makes you want to nudge the person next to you on the tube and tell them if they haven't read this book they're missing out and they need to get it NOW.
Firefly Lane by Kristin Hannah is this book. My mum passed it on to me, insistent I read it and just a few pages in I could see why.
The story tells the friendship of Tully and Kate and spans three decades. In their early teens they promise to be 'best friends forever' but of course, life is never that easy…
Abandoned by her mother, Tully is desperate to prove her worth and is ambitious to find fame when all she really wants is to be loved unconditionally.
Kate comes from a loving family and not bothered about success or a career, she just wants to fall in love, have a family and live happily ever after….
But when the girls get what they wished for, it comes with it's own problems and then an act of betrayal tears them apart - and their friendship is put to the ultimate test…
Firefly Lane is a coming-of-age story. There are betrayals and secrets but most importantly friendship. And it really is a story you'll never forget.
Just booked me a whole week off over Christmas *high five* now I know what I'll be doing with it!
