**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 man-eater 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 eccentric relatives. So Sue moves to her Aunt Coral’s crumbling ancestral home, where she fully intends to write a book and fall in love . . . and perhaps drink Campari for breakfast

** *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*.
