Book Reviews of Can You Keep a Secret?Book Review: Very entertaining book. Summary: 5 Stars
I read books to relax and change my mind, to get away from the negative world and enjoy a more funny or positive look at life and this book gave me exactly that. This book made me smile and laugh out loud very easily. It was also easy to read and a page turner for me. I couldn't wait to come back home from work to plunge back in Emma's world. The story was sometimes predictive and sometimes cliché, but the surprises are all in the way the story developped and how it was written... which I found very entertaining. I'll be reading more of Sophie Kinsella's books.
Summary of Can You Keep a Secret?BONUS: This edition contains an excerpt from Sophie Kinsella's I've Got Your Number.
With the same wicked humor, buoyant charm, and optimism that have made her Shopaholic novels beloved international bestsellers, Sophie Kinsella delivers a hilarious new novel and an unforgettable new character. Meet Emma Corrigan, a young woman with a huge heart, an irrepressible spirit, and a few little secrets: Secrets from her mother: I lost my virginity in the spare bedroom with Danny Nussbaum while Mum and Dad were downstairs watching Ben-Hur. Sammy the goldfish in my parents? kitchen is not the same goldfish that Mum gave me to look after when she and Dad were in Egypt. Secrets from her boyfriend: I weigh one hundred and twenty-eight pounds. Not one eighteen, like Connor thinks. I?ve always thought Connor looks a bit like Ken. As in Barbie and Ken. From her colleagues: When Artemis really annoys me, I feed her plant orange juice. (Which is pretty much every day.) It was me who jammed the copier that time. In fact, all the times. Secrets she wouldn?t share with anyone in the world: My G-string is hurting me. I have no idea what NATO stands for. Or even what it is. Until she spills them all to a handsome stranger on a plane. At least, she thought he was a stranger. But come Monday morning, Emma?s office is abuzz about the arrival of Jack Harper, the company?s elusive CEO. Suddenly Emma is face-to-face with the stranger from the plane, a man who knows every single humiliating detail about her. Things couldn?t possibly get worse?Until they do.
