Publisher's Summary

Marnie FitzPatrick is a reclusive sixth former from Hertfordshire with a dysfunctional family, a penchant for Pythagoras' theorem and an addiction to doughnuts and gin.

Julie Crewe is a disillusioned maths teacher who lives vicariously through the girls she teaches, yet who once danced barefoot through Central Park with a man called Jo she has never been able to forget.

This is the story of what happened in the summer of 1969, when the sun burned down on the roof of the Shredded Wheat factory, and a boy called Freddie Friday danced to the records he had stolen.

This is about first love and last love and all the strange stuff in between. This is what happens when three people are bound together by something that can't be calculated or explained by any equation. This is what happened when they saw the open door.

Enjoyable read

I adored reading the Lost Art of Keeping Secrets in 2005. I even had my next Birthday at J Sheekys. Listening to the dual point of views was important at the beginning to get through the time at St Libby's. But I enjoyed seeing how the 2 characters saw each other, it helped the reader to get sense of them that they themselves couldn't see atthe time.
There are many parallels with the previous book but there is something deeper about this one, charcters like Mark and Tara add to the working class voice of Freddie.
