Book Review: Angels


From Goodreads: After catching her husband having an affair and being fired from her job, Maggie Walsh suddenly finds her perfectly organized existence has become a perfect mess. She decides, for the first time in her life, to do something daring -- and flees to her best friend, Emily, in the faraway wonderland of Los Angeles. In this mecca of tanned, beautiful bodies, unsvelte, uncool Maggie is decidedly a fish out of water. Yet, overnight, she's mixing with film folk, pitching scripts, even experimenting with sex -- and discovering that the end of a marriage is not the end of the world.

Thoughts: This is another book I picked up on my sewing weekend. I've read a few Marian Keyes before so I knew this would be good holiday fodder.
While I've never found anything by Keyes to be as good as Rachel's Holiday, this was perfect for the beach. Light, fluffy, funny but well written with a decent story line.
Ireland seems to produce some wonderful chick lit author and Keyes is no exception. Lots of fun without insulting your intelligence. Perfect!
