Friendship Never Ends

Four girls and two boys at school are best friends and call themselves “The Huddies” as they live in Huddersfield, where apparently “nothing exciting ever happens”. They see the Spice girls launch themselves into the music world and want to follow suit- as “The Spice Rack”. Fast forward 22 years and there is a school reunion. Carmen finds one of the old gang on social media and tracks her down to meet her, only to discover that the rest of the gang have been friends ever since they left school. They think that Carmen has the glamorous life- from her social media pictures, when in reality she is working in a supermarket and bored out of her brain. There is also another talent show and Carmen really really wants to do it all again. I really enjoyed this. It took me back to a time of different sorts of friendships- those we had at school and didn’t really think about our futures or who we would become. The mistakes we made and how through adult eyes we now see them in a different light. The chapters alternate between different characters and are written in the first person who to me gave it more of a personal feel. A book to enjoy and one to make you smile which is what you want, what you really, really want!
