Grown Ups could easily have been another book series, this time on the Casey family. ![]() She’s done a series of books on the Walsh family, starting with her first in 1995 – Watermelon – which was also turned into a film starring none other than hot from Brookside – Anna Friel. Her characters are male and female, well drawn and dealing with some pretty non-rosy situations, usually taken from her own experiences. I’ve found that people who haven’t read them have a tendency to dismiss them as ‘chick lit’, but that isn’t the case. I’ve read a few books by Marian Keyes, and enjoyed them all.

Shame and her longing for her mother’s acceptance led her to deny her feelings and eventually run away to a remote stretch of mountains in Colorado. ![]() Coming of age in the Texas Bible Belt, a place where it was unacceptable to be gay, Theall found herself at odds with her strict Roman Catholic parents, bullied by her classmates, abandoned by her evangelical best friend whose mother spoke in tongues, and kicked out of Christian organizations that claimed to embrace her - all before she’d ever held a girl’s hand. From the time she was born, Michelle Theall knew she was different. A compelling memoir of a gay Catholic woman struggling to find balance between being a daughter and a mother raising her son with a loving partner in the face of discrimination. ![]() ![]() ![]() Tamesis is an imprint of Boydell & Brewer Ltd PO Box 9, Woodbridge, Suffolk IP12 3DF, UK and of Boydell & Brewer Inc.
