I was reading the Guardian a few weeks ago and I stumbled across John Croce's review of Cleo Watson's new book, Whips. I enjoyed the review and so I did something I never do, bought a book, well except AR of course.

It is incredibly funny, a little hard to follow with all the characters, but she has a very inventive mind, I know we are not supposed to use very, but the sentence needs it.

If you have a 90 year old father, buy him the book, if he doesn't laugh, just check he is still alive. He will likely refuse to allow your mother to read the book, reading the last page will tell you why.

She should try her hand at a Ransome, she tells a good story.
