    This news has genuinely made my day, week month, century! Like most millennial British women Jacqueline Wilson books were my childhood. And while I eventually put them down one day around yr8 and stopped paying attention to her yearly releases, I’ve been regularly revisiting the Girls books pretty much forever.

    I always really enjoyed that series as they were less issues focussed and more character driven. Plus I was always left a bit disappointed that the series ended with Girls in Tears, as it didn’t feel like a satisfying ending at all. It was even pretty un-Jacqueline esque to me with Ellie staying with Russell. She’s usually very anti useless awful men in her other books so it really surprised me.

    I am completely buzzing at the idea of a Jacqueline Wilson book written specifically for an adult reader, and a continuation of one my favourite stories of hers to boot. I’m counting down the weeks until we get to revisit Ellie, Nadine and Magda and see what they’re all up to at 40!
