The final straw in the ongoing rivalry between Geraldine and her stepsister comes when Lulu gloatingly gets herself pregnant, much to the silent horror of Geraldine who’s been trying to do the same for five years. Anne Fine’s spiky, funny and utterly readable novel of revenge mercilessly dissects family life.

Review
This wickedly entertaining novel ... is not one to miss The Independent Fine untangles all these threads with great psychological intelligence, and a merciless sense of comedy. Saga Few writers can convey better than Anne Fine the dangerous currents that ripple through an unhappy family. Financial Times Fine's depiction of a cunning and manipulative character is masterful, and the conclusion is horribly satisfying. The Times Fine writes in dignified and clear prose that does ring true. Sunday Times
