Publisher's Summary

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?

Long but lovely

I thought the first 4.5 hours were a long time to pass before losing her job (per the blurb), but in the end it sets the rest of the story up really well.

Lovely!

It doesn't re-invent the wheel but, as far as these kinds of stories go, it's a lovely addition to your collection.

My not so perfect life.

It was ok. Somewhat predictable but not a bad story just a little lack lustre I feel.

A story of a not-so-perfect-life of a girl

What a book. You'll never be able to stop it. What an addictive book and narrative.

Light Hearted and Fun

I loved all of the Shopoholic series back in the 2000’s and this story was just as enjoyable.

If you’re looking for a happy feel good story narrated by a talented reader then this audible will be very appealing.

I very much enjoyed it 😊
