book nook: the undomestic goddess

the undomestic goddess
sophie kinsella

lately i've been itching to read again. i tried a couple of books since the last time i posted a book review (it's been far too long), but i couldn't get through any of them. ughh. that's another post for another time. anyway, i went to the library all ready to borrow books recommended by my cousin, maxine, but it turned out that they didn't have any of them. boo.

instead, i picked up this book (along with three other ones) and i'm glad i did. it's set in england and basically follows the journey of a high-profile lawyer in london who, after making a huge mistake, leaves her job, stumbles upon another job, and starts new life. well, there's a lot more to the story, but i don't want to give anything away.

this was my first sophie kinsella book (she wrote the shopaholic series along with some other stuff, but i never read any of them...yet) and i actually really enjoyed it! it was an easy read (only took me a few hours to finish), light, funny, and it even had one reference to harry potter (bahaha, i laughed so hard at that part). sweet. :)

so for anyone on the look out for some good chick-lit, i highly recommend this book.
