The Sunday Girl by Pip Drysdale Book Review


 

I was fortunate enough to have won this book from Cindy over on Instagram (lovemybooks2020). I left this book sitting on my shelf and decided to give it a read. This is the first book I have read by Ms. Drysdale and I was not disappointed.

Taylor is madly in love with Angus, and she believes he is madly in love with her until she finds out he cheated on her. After having lived with Angus, Taylor moves back to her tiny apartment that she can barely afford, having moved there to be close to Angus. She then devises a plan to get back at Angus for breaking her heart. She does some small things that would cause him some irritation, never thinking he would figure it out was her. There came a knock on her door. It was Angus toting flowers and an apology. She knew it was wrong, but she let him in. They got back together. Charlotte, Taylor’s friend, and Taylor’s mom kept warning her to stay away. Taylor followed her heart. Enter David, a business client. Then, some odd things started happening in Taylor’s personal life (she knew Angus had a temper and a cocaine problem) and then some odder things started happening in her work life. Taylor then decided to exact her revenge, but Angus proved to be a formidable opponent … or was he?

If you like books that involve twisted relationships, you are sure to enjoy this one. The entire cast of characters make this a complete story. The relationship between Taylor and Angus. The friendship between Taylor and Charlotte, including Charlotte’s fiancé Ben (Ben does not have a major role in this tale). The relationship between Taylor and her mum (important, I think, because who do we usually turn to in times of trouble? Mum!) The business relationship between Taylor and David. The relationship between Taylor and Val (her work supervisor). All these combined together make for an enjoyable day of reading. (I actually read this twice and was more taken in the second time around.)
