I always eagerly anticipate any new Sophie Kinsella book, since I picked up the first Shopaholic novel many years ago in my college bookstore... sadly, in recent years, it's been a mixed bag of so-so, humdrum plots. Luckily, I think SK may have found her groove again with this one. 
 The story revolves around single, starry-eyed, impulsive Lottie and her older, beleaguered, divorced sister Fliss. Both women make some ridiculous choices, resulting in some typical madcap adventures, per usual SK formula. It is quite wonderful. 
 I found myself sympathizing with both sisters, but really I was on team Fliss the whole book. What she did to "fix" Lottie's problem was pretty extreme, and no normal person would have done such a thing, but I fully agreed with her reasons and thought she at least had her head in reality (mostly). I was pretty quickly unable to put this book down, and the whole middle part had a wonderful urgency to it, with a lot of humor and silliness as well (as we like from our Sophie Kinsella books!). 
 This one also felt more "grown-up" to me than Kinsella's previous books. Fliss is her first divorced main character, the first one who felt like she had real, grown-up problems besides trying to find a man (which I'm not saying isn't a valid problem - just that it's been done). A lot of the story and humor were sex-related, too, which is not SK's usual pattern. ("Did they put the sausage in the cupcake yet???" hahaha.) 
 My only real criticism of this book was that the ending was a little abrupt. So many huge delays and mishaps to keep these people apart, and then suddenly they all appear together at once - it felt staged. But then, the reasons they were all there made perfect sense, so I get how it worked together. It just felt off. 
 Nevertheless, the plot did a marvelous job of revealing Lottie's true match and helping each of the other characters overcome their main issues. I really liked all of these people (except maybe Ben...but maybe we're not supposed to like him too much).
