Adrian Mole: The Cappuccino Years by Sue Townsend
5.0
So after a couple of disappointing installments, this is actually my favourite Mole book thus far. It feels like he's been brought into adulthood, but not in a tedious monotonous way that we saw in the Wilderness Years.
Okay, the celebrity chef part is a little unbelievable. But putting that aside, I really love the soap opera melodrama that his life becomes. Losing jobs, moving back home, trying to be a father, and the peripheral drama of his family and Pandora. It manages to be funny as well as touching, and I remember now why I love Adrian Mole.
