My mum went and bought this book for me today as an alternative for an easter egg as I always buy Cathy Cassidy's books because I think they're the best, and I was certaintly not dissapointed.
It was funny at times, and I just kept on wishing things for the characters and hoping things would turn out well for them as the story went along. The relationship between jude and carter is so sweet but I must say this book has made me cry the most I've ever cried whilst reading a book, It's so sad towards the end and it just shows a teenager like me, although families will always be quite embarassing,you can't live without them!

I am aged ten and i am an advanced reader.
I found Sundae girl a brilliant book,I couldn't put it down.
However this book could be very upsetting and complicated for younger readers.
The story had wonderful and powerful characters.
My favorite characters were Genovie ,mums boyfriend who runs an ice cream van ,dad an elvis impersonator and most of all Jude an unusual,secretive and shy girl.

Cathy Cassidy has a really enjoyable writing style where she's able to pull together a few moralities and turn out an enjoyable book about home life, friendship, love and fun. In Cassidy's latest book she pulls the setting out in her childhood home-town in England.
It's a modern era, and Jude lives with her secretly alcoholic and embarrassing grand-parents. She doesn't show off her family due to embarrassment of them and they stay a secret, even to her closest friends. Her dad is an Elvis impersonater and his girlfriend Victoria is the only person remotely normal in her family.
Life is settling nicely for Jude, and she's enjoying the normality of it... until her mum starts on the booze again, her dad and Victoria plan to get hitched and a tear-away, nerdy boy falls in love with her. But will he be able to melt her ice-cream heart?
An enjoyable book from Cathy Cassidy, however, I didn't fall into it so deep as I did in Dizzy, Driftwood and Indigo Blue. It fell a little below Scarlett, and I'm worried that Cathy is running out of ideas. I hope not, as I enjoy her books lots.

delicious!
I've read all of cathy's books and this has to be one of my faves. Although it's about a serious subject - Jude's mum's alcoholism - it's funny as well as touching and sad. Read more
