The main character isn't as lovable as Becky Bloomwood...but still another cute story from Sophie Kinsella... ( )

Very fun and couldn't put it down! ( )

Typical chick lit book, but entertaining. ( )

For anyone who has dreamed of just running out on a messy life and starting a new one, a fantastic book. I got swept up in it, also probably because it's English and I liked the accent of the woman who read it (audio). It was a lazy, dreamy, perhaps somewhat more romantic than most, good getting out of your head kind of book. ( )

Well I think it was pretty bad but I am probably alone in this opinion. ( )

Book description
Workaholic attorney Samantha Sweeting has just done the unthinkable. She’s made a mistake so huge, it’ll wreck any chance of a partnership.

Going into utter meltdown, she walks out of her London office, gets on a train, and ends up in the middle of nowhere. Asking for directions at a big, beautiful house, she’s mistaken for an interviewee and finds herself being offered a job as housekeeper. Her employers have no idea they’ve hired a lawyer–and Samantha has no idea how to work the oven. She can’t sew on a button, bake a potato, or get the #@%# ironing board to open. How she takes a deep breath and begins to cope–and finds love–is a story as delicious as the bread she learns to bake.

But will her old life ever catch up with her? And if it does…will she want it back?
