I loved this book!" 5* Amazon.co.uk Kindle review "...a fun and witty romp through scenarios familiar to anyone who enjoyed films like Pretty in Pink during the 1980s...Highly Recommended." 5* Amazon.co.uk Kindle review "a short, funny read about two women who've been best friends forever but who haven't really achieved what they wanted with their lives. They get the chance to do it again, but this time as the main characters in an 80s teen movie!...a mash up of every great 80s teen movie...you'll love it." 5* Amazon.com Kindle review "This was a really fast, fun read. It's all about the girls really, but I was impressed that the male characters actually did feel like real guys...I was a teenager in the 80s and I loved all those films, so this was a great quick nostalgic escape before getting back to the real life of being a grown up." 5* Amazon.com Kindle review When lifelong friends Julie and Rosanna are electrocuted by an ancient Betamax VCR, they wake up as the main characters in their favorite 1980s teen movie. How will they get back to reality... and do they really want to? For Rosanna – eternal adolescent, reluctant single mom and frustrated artist – being zapped into an eighties teen movie is a dream come true. She’s the coolest girl in school with a hot, mysterious boyfriend, a doting father who’ll give her anything she wants and a scholarship to study art in Paris. Why would she ever want to leave? For Julie – Miss Responsibility – this is her worst nightmare. She’s the sidekick in her own favorite movie and the boy of her dreams - Johnnie - is hopelessly, unrequitedly in love with Rosanna. Julie is determined to get back to reality. But things start to change when Johnnie falls for Julie and offers her everything her real-life husband isn’t giving her; and Rosanna has to choose between her over-protective father, her 'perfect' boyfriend and her spoilt-brat real-life son. You'll laugh, you'll cry, you'll learn to shotgun beer without blowing it out your nose. Trapped in an 80s Teen Movie is a comedy fantasy about inter-dimensionality, parenthood, kidulthood and the lasting qualities of Twinkies.
