Summary

Brought to you by Penguin.

The hilarious and brilliant best seller from number one best-selling author Sophie Kinsella.

Sophie Kinsella's My Not So Perfect Life reminds us all that there is no pattern or promise in modern life. Set in London, this is a light hearted portrait of a young woman making her journey through adulthood with wit and perception.

Katie Brenner has the perfect life: a flat in London, a glamorous job, and a supercool Instagram feed.

Okay, so the truth is that she rents a tiny room with no space for a wardrobe, she has a hideous commute to a lowly admin job, and the life she shares on Instagram isn't really hers. But one day her dreams are bound to come true, aren't they?

Until her not-so-perfect life comes crashing down when her megasuccessful boss, Demeter, gives her the sack. All Katie's hopes are shattered. She has to move home to Somerset, where she helps her dad with his new glamping business. Then Demeter and her family book in for a holiday, and Katie sees her chance. But should she get revenge on the woman who ruined her dreams - or try to get her job back? Does Demeter - the woman who has everything - actually have such an idyllic life herself? Maybe they have more in common than it seems. And what's wrong with not so perfect, anyway?

Also out now the joyful new standalone novel from Sophie Kinsella: Love Your Life.

Brain candy!

Enjoyed this sugary sweet book. Liked Cat / Katy loads (most of the time....) and this kept us very entertained. The ending did go on a bit though. The narration was good.

Hilarious book

Even though I've read this book many times, I still laugh out loud when I listen/read it!
It's one of my favorite books yet. Fiona Hardingham doesn't sound like the Katie I picture in my head, but still does a great job with the voices and accents!

Great entertainment

The total entertainment experience in a book! Worth waiting by for. The narrator is excellent and the whole story is thoroughly entertaining - with moments of humour that made me laugh out loud. Don't miss the opportunity to enjoy yourself - can't wait for the next book!

A perfect story to cheer up those dull days.

I loved this book from start to finish. I felt I was there with them and I really wanted to stay in their yurts and sit by the campfire. Great narrating a perfect 5 star from me. Xx
