As she becomes an adult, Vero's need to strike out on her own leads her into bizarre and comical situations: she tries (and fails) to run away to Paris at the age of fifteen; she moves into an unwitting older boyfriend's house after they have been together for less than a week; and she sets up a fraudulent (and wildly successful) street clothing stall to raise funds to go to Mexico. Most of all, she falls in love - repeatedly, dramatically, and often with the most unlikely and inappropriate of candidates.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAs she continues to plot escapades and her mother's relentless tracking methods and guilt-tripping mastery thwart her at every turn, it is no wonder that Vero becomes a writer - and a liar - inventing stories in a bid for her own sanity.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Virago","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44328271347848,"sku":"9780349017693","price":22.99,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0371\/3443\/4440\/files\/lost-on-me-9780349017693-7162277.jpg?v=1759252095","url":"https:\/\/littlelostbookshop.com.au\/products\/9780349017693-lost-on-me","provider":"The Little Lost Bookshop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
