Lessons For A Sunday Father by Claire Calman

Fiction-Net Rating 4 Star Rated Book

It's never too late to grow up. This is the story of Scott, who finds his belongings outside in a bin bag one day and realises he may have made a big mistake. Gail, who wishes her husband was under guarantee so she could send him back and get a refund. Nat, who discovers that growing up isn't all it's cracked up to be. Rosie, who just wants her Dad back - or if not, then at least some new glitter nail polish.

Lessons For A Sunday Father is told from the viewpoint of four members of the same family - Scott and Gail and their two children, Nat and Rosie. Each character tells their side of the story whilst the family falls apart as a result of Scott having a very brief affair.

Love Is A Four Letter Word by Claire Calman

Fiction-Net Rating 5 Star Rated Book

Sex. Yes. She remembered that. Wasn't that the thing that happened somewhere between the talking-and-going-out-to-dinner bit and the sobbing-and-eating-too-many-biscuits bit? Still, Bella was sure she could handle some - preferably before her as yet unopened packet of condoms reached their expiry date. She must be practically a virgin again by now, all sealed over like pierced ears if you don't wear earrings for too long.

But the 'L' word? Uh-huh. No way. She never wanted to hear it again.
