"My name is Millicent Elizabeth Georgina Knowles and I was born in a toilet cubicle of a local pub. Actually, just call me Millie, or even Meg. Some people call me Meg." We can all see the large, explosive times in our lives. The points when the signposts are clear. But what about the tiny moments? The fragments of life that might slip by unnoticed. Surely they can have just as much effect on who we become. Born on that urine stained toilet floor, Millie is immediately orphaned from her drug addict mother. Not the best of starts in life, but when you're at the bottom, the only direction left it up. Isn't it? They say we are only dealt the cards in life we can cope with, so having a brother diagnosed with downs syndrome and adoptive parents on the verge of splitting up, Millie has a lot to deal with in the first few years of her life. Luckily, surrounded by people she loves, there are still good times among the bad. She has a best friend that saved her life when she was ten and a form tutor at school she can't help but have a crush on. Then there is Jake. Could she finally know what love is? Uniquely told, 14 year old Millie's narration will carry you through all those moments in her life and more. All those little fragments that made her the person she became. Because without them, how could she ever have saved her brothers life in the heart wrenching climax.
