WELCOME TO THE 1980s

WELCOME TO CAMBRIDGE

WELCOME TO FREYA'S WORLD

Adolescence is never easy. And for fourteen-year-old Freya it's bewildering. Brought up by parents who act like teenagers, and surrounded by teenagers all too desperate to be grown-ups – it's no wonder she feels like a social anomaly.

Her mother, Millie,Hoped her daughter would become her best gal pal. Instead, her fondest communications reach Freya in the form of notes left on the fridge door:

FEED RABBITS!

CHEESE IN FRIDGE ONLY ONE DAY OUT OF DATE

BE LESS SCARY.

Her father, Hugh, is struggling to keep his property business afloat. 'When there's a recession on, you have to keep an eye on the figures,' he once said - If only he'd listened to his own advice . . .

And when her parents break dramatically with marital convention, they leave Freya in turmoil as she realizes that, for Millie and Hugh, three is not a crowd. In desperation, Freya goes looking for love in all the wrong places . . .

WELCOME TO LIFE is a sparkling, darkly humorous, and provocative novel about family, friendship, and becoming a grown-up.
