À propos de cet audio
Uncle Tom said if I called him a boomer one more time, I would be stuck playing Snake on the rubbish Nokia forever. I was very tempted to reply, ‘OK, boomer,’ again but there was something in his eye that told me he meant it, so I decided I had better be quiet.
14yo Emily is gloomily spending the summer with her mum’s best friend Uncle Tom, helping him renovate his house, instead of being at home hoping the gorgeous Toby will ask her out. Worse, she’s broken her phone and left her iPad at her dad’s house. How is she supposed to survive without her tech, her BFF and her social life? No one understands her despair, least of all the boomers.
Then she finds her mum’s old diary. Cue MASSIVE CRINGE. But as Emily starts to read, she’s stunned to discover that her mum was once a teenager too. A nineties teenager called Lila McKay, who was VERY MISUNDERSTOOD. It’s a long-forgotten era of weird fashions, TV shows and music Emily’s never heard of. There are boys too, notably cute Park Boy Tom and her mum’s dorky neighbour Weird Nicky. As she becomes more invested in Lila’s teenage life, Emily begins to wonder if perhaps she and her mother are not so different after all …
