Summary
The boys are looking for a place to listen to the World Cup match but all the pubs in Diagon Alley are full and then they walk into Lily’s wine bar filled with florals and pink chairs. And Lily refuses to change the wireless because people come specifically on Thursday to listen to the latest episode of the Real Witches of Upper Flagley. James never wants to leave.

Summary
It's 1975 and Lily Evans lives a double life.
At home, she's the Irish Catholic daughter of a union organizer in a dying industrial town. At Hogwarts, she never puts a toe out of line, never gives her pure-blood classmates a reason to doubt her. Lily has big plans, even if she's not sure what, precisely, those plans entail.
James Potter has never had to be anyone but himself.
Why would he? Wealthy, good-looking, and intelligent, he knows he's lucky, but the war is bringing what's important into sharp relief. His ageing parents have joined the Order of the Phoenix, and James longs to fight alongside them.
When Voldemort's followers murder seven Muggle-borns in broad daylight just before the start of their fifth year, tensions at Hogwarts reach an all-time high. The so-called Dark Lord is recruiting from the student body, and the time has come to act. The trouble is, Hogwarts isn't split between good people and Death Eaters, and old prejudices die hard.
Lily and James have always been enemies - ask anybody. But now that they've found themselves on the same side of an escalating war waged in classrooms and corridors, they're forced to see each other in a different light.

Summary
“A 97 percent?” her mother asks, eyes never leaving the page of the exam booklet that she’s studying.
Lily nods, realizes her mother can’t see her, and replies, quietly, “Yes.”
Her mother hums. It’s an uncertain hum, with an undercurrent of disdain. Lily is very good at interpreting her mother’s hums.
“Well, that’s not bad darling.” A pause. Lily waits for what is inevitably coming. “But where did the other 3 percent go?”
OR
In her fifth year at Hogwarts, Lily Evans begins to dissolve. This is a story of hunger, pressure, what it takes to exceed expectations, and what it means to survive them.
