This is the only one I could think of. Curious to see what my fellow Littens come up with.

Took a looking time to get through this but I loved the cast of characters.

Maudie lives with her mom and stepdad during the school year but is starting another summer with her dad when they have to evacuate due to a wildfire. As they find a place to stay near the beach, Maudie begins making new friends. As the reader learns about autism through her experiences, she keeps secrets from her dad about learning to surf and life with her mom. I loved Maudie‘s first person story.

Wanted to love this more than I did. It was readable enough, the characters endearing enough, and the concept engaging enough. But it was also slow, and there was a bit too much going on. If Kinsella had stuck to the “burnout” concept, mined it a bit more deeply, and shaved 100 pages off this, it would have fired better for me.

If you, too, are suffering from burnout, reading this may not be the kind of catharsis you‘re looking for. I found it kind of stressful to read about a character experiencing *some* of the same feelings that I have been (though in a very dramatized way) — and knowing that everything‘s about to change…for her. However, despite requiring some suspension of disbelief, the story is grounded in sweetness & earnestness, & it had me laughing ALL the way.

monalyisha I think this was my first Sophie Kinsella! I‘ll definitely read more by her (though maybe not the Shopaholic series). Our sense of humor aligns in a big way. The scene where she tries to join a convent had me literally exclaiming aloud. 😅 3mo

This was advertised as a story about a woman finding herself after her marriage to a Hollywood star ends but the bulk of the book is the tale of their fairytale courtship. By the time the marriage ends there only about 80 pages left. So her recovery from anger and grief, learning a new skill (which does help her process), and falling in love again all happens so quickly that I found myself rolling my eyes.

Such a quick, easy read. It will make you laugh, smile, & maybe even cry. Full of feel good vibes & heart. Like relatable characters who come complete with messy stories, making them all the more relatable? You'll love Kinsella's writing. Love quirky characters who leave you waiting for the other shoe to drop? You'll enjoy Kinsella's writing. Just need an escape from your own day to day drama? You'll find it in Kinsella's writing.
