@DaniRose2143 Thank you! Ahh yes Kelly definitely has a chip on her shoulder, it'll become clear later exactly why that is, but for now there's a lot of strange, cutting remarks. I wanted her to be a bit confusing, like she's not supposed to be the obvious villain, and to be a bit more complicated than that. She can be a good friend sometimes and at others she can act out and be nasty. I think that Kelly think she's acting with good intentions, but maybe secretly deep down she'd like to see Evie fail.
@mightysprite I love that you've commented this! I was determined to set the story in a place I knew very very well. I spent a lot of time on the south east coast growing up and I know the feeling of those beaches. You're right, it's not a very well known part of the world to non-natives, which is another reason I was drawn to it. When people think of Ireland they often think of either the rolling green fields, stone walls & sheep (!) of the west, or the old Georgian parts of Dublin, but the south of the island is it's own unique place. Glad I can take you there!
@Lucy_Henley Aw thanks for reading! Super happy to have you here, and thanks for dropping a comment, I really appreciate it! Oh yeah I love her hair too - it's the Lillia hair by AHarris00Britney :) https://aharris00britney.tumblr.com/post/682374155996364800/lillia-hair
