Synopsis
Back to Life by Joanna Nadin
Carpe diem i.e. seize the day! Which means utter experimenting as far
as snogging is concerned. Am never going to find the ONE if just keep
having accidental liaisons with Jack or ill-advised flirtations with
Justin.
The ONE is out there somewhere. Maybe even right under my nose. I just need to be open-minded.
And open-armed. And possibly open-mouthed. Life, as they say, is what you make it.
And
am definitely, no doubt about it, going to make mine fabulous. Starting
now. Read the hilarious results of Rachel Riley's 'seize the day'
philosophy in this fantastic fifth instalment of her diaries.
