I listened to the audiobook. This is not my favorite Sophie Kinsella book. I'm not a fan of the Shopaholic series but have always liked Sophie's other stories. Since the audiobooks tend to be edited a bit and the reader can have a huge impact on the tone of the story, I don't entirely blame the story itself.
Lexie wakes up from a crap night at a bar to discover she is now married, wealthy and in a high-powered position at work – three years later. She must try to figure out her life and whether she really wants the life she's built. In the end, the romance in the story seems to play a small role in the overall story so the conclusion seems a little sudden. Again, this could be the “edited for audiobook format” at fault and not the actual story.
Coincidentally, I picked up the paperback of this book a good year after listening to the audiobook and didn't realize it was the same story. Sadly, the book didn't engage me anymore than the audiobook did.
