Summary

Life is full of terrible things. Ghosts of dead relatives, heartbreak.... burnt toast.

In 1987, Sue Bowl's world changes for ever. Her mother dies, leaving her feeling like she’s lost a vital part of herself. And then her father shacks up with an awful golddigger called Ivana. But Sue’s mother always told her to make the most of what she’s got - and what she’s got is a love of writing and some interesting relatives. So Sue moves to her Aunt Coral’s crumbling ancestral home, Green Place, along with a growing bunch of oddballs and eccentrics. Not to mention the odd badger or two....

There she fully intends to write a book, fall in love, and learn to live decadently. Campari for Breakfast is a heart-warming, eccentric novel that joins the ranks of great British coming-of-age novels such as Dodie Smith's I Capture the Castle and Nancy Mitford's The Pursuit of Love.

OMG I.love.this.book!

'Campari for breakfast' is a great big hug of a book; bautifully executed, heartfelt writing!

Sara Crowe paints her characters so vividly, you can't help but become entangled. Warmth, wit, heart breaking honesty and life as it is lived. I've already bought 3 copies to give as gifts. This is one story I'm sure to revisit again and again- whether for comfort or truth. I am inspired.
