Another funny slice of life novel by Sophie Kinsella

My Not So Perfect Life: A Novel

By: Sophie Kinsella

Rating: 5 of 5

I’ve read almost all of Sophie Kinsella’s books. I enjoy both her style of writing (oh, so funny) and the messages she manages to convey through her plots.

In “My Not So Perfect Life”, Katie/Cat Brenner is struggling to get her life on track. She’s abandoned the family farm to move to London (her dream city) to work in marketing (her dream career.) She’s Katie at home and a newly created persona, Cat, in London. The reality isn’t quite so great and she spends a good deal of time thinking that those around her have perfect lives.

Of course, there is no such thing as a perfect life and Katie finds out the truth of it no only in her life but in those around her. The journey is filled with funny moments, though even some of those are a little more than a bit heart-breaking.

This is another wonderful book by Ms. Kinsella and the only problem I have now is waiting another year for a new novel to appear.

I was provided a digital advance reader copy of this book by the publisher via Netgalley.
