What I'm reading ...

I have started Secret Diary of Adrian Mole Aged Thirteen and Three Quarters by Sue Townsend.

I first heard this when it was serialised on the radio around 1982. I was struck by the fact that a woman [in her thirties] could write about the inner life of an adolescent boy and get it so spot on. I am re-reading as it is an upcoming BookClub programme, which I am interested in attending.
