Review
What a fun read this was! It was a nice little break from the types of books I normally read. Poppy is amusing, clever and dramatic, and I loved every bit of it! Maybe that is because I can relate to her crazy ways! Her antics and the way she handles awkward, less-than-ideal situations will leave you laughing out loud. Underneath all of that, however, is a sweet, insecure 29-year old woman who just wants to be loved and accepted by people. Can't we all relate to that? This book read quick overall and was entertaining from start to finish. It's a great choice if you are looking for a light-hearted, silly read. I thoroughly enjoyed it and am looking forward to reading more of Sophie Kinsella's books in the future!

The Other Woman by Sandie Jones

Rating 4.5/5 stars Genre Fiction - Suspense Summary She looks beautiful in her wedding dress. It fits her perfectly and is exactly what I'd imagined she'd go for: elegant, understated, and unique—just like her. My heart breaks that her days will never come, but she doesn't need to know that yet. I think about the guests who won't attend, the picture frames with no photographs, the first dance that will be silent, the cake that won't get eaten, and I feel my resolve weakening. I pull myself up. This is not a time for doubt. There is still so much work to do, so much more pain to inflict, but I will not be deterred. I failed once before, but this time, I'll get it right. There's too much at stake to get it wrong. (from the Prologue of The Other Woman by Sandie Jones) When Emily meets Adam, they quickly fall for each other and make plans for their future together. All appears fine and dandy until Emily meets her future mother-in-law, Pammie...
