She learns how to bake bread, she learns how to slow down. But then her old life threatens to catch up with her. And when it does...will she want it back?
I love Sophie Kinsella books, because they always delivers an adorable and fun story, which make me smile, and The Undomestic Goddess had me grinning from ear to ear. This is the story of Samantha, who was working her whole life to become what she was -- one the best lawyers money can buy. When she uncovers a HUGE error she made, she flees London, knowing her career is over. While in a fugue-like state, she stumbles into a job as a housekeeper. Standing by as she adjusts to this new lifestyle had me laughing and grinning like a fool. And then, well, there's Nat. Nat was sort of perfect and amazing, and I really wanted Nat and Sam to happen.
This book is lighthearted, but has a lot of heart. Kinsella hit upon something, which factored into my own career decisions (choosing a life over money), and I really liked the way she address all this, while giving us another great chick-lit experience.
