Each of Gillian’s other books has had me obsessed, her writing is fast but brilliant and the storylines are iconic. I was expecting that from The Grownup and am left feeling short changed. It’s another brilliantly written story and the plot has a classic Flynn twist, but I want more. I know it’s a short story… but there’s an element to it which feels rushed, and as though something has been ignored. I can only dream that GF will turn it into a full novel.
