The Other Side of The Story by Marian Keyes
Synopsis :
Jojo Harvey is a dead ringer for Jessica Rabbit and the most ferocious literary agent in town. A former NYPD cop, she now lives in London making million-dollar book deals while trying to make partner at her firm . . . all the while sleeping with the boss man.
Lily Wright is an author who believes in karma, and is waiting for the sky to fall after stealing her former best friend's man. Though her first book failed to sell, her life turns upside down when her most recent book becomes a huge bestseller.
Gemma Hogan is an event designer extraordinaire, but her personal life is nonexistent after losing the love of her life and her best friend in one fell swoop. To make matters worse, her father has just left her mother. While taking care of her mother, she e-mails a close colleague about her frustrations, who in turn forwards the hilarious e-mails to a famous literary agent named Jojo Harvey, who just happens to represent her former friend, now enemy, Lily Wright. . . .
This is what I say :
Yes, I read this at the same time as I read The Mystery of Mercy Close. I can't remember when did I buy this copy of The Other Side of The Story but as I read it, I do realise that it's not my first time reading it. I probably read it years ago but I quite forgot.
Anyway, this story portrays a totally different set of characters from the Walsh family. However, the style of Marian's writing shines through and it was an enjoyable book through and through.
It is indeed a fun read and while the issues were not fun issues, Marian made it light and enjoyable, the way a chic lite should be.
What other titles by Marian should I read next or should I read again?
