The Undomestic Goddess by Sophie Kinsella

Besides her latest, Remember Me, is already her best book of all, another one which I've just finished, The Undomestic Goddess, is also another good one, is very much different compared to her other books, better than Shopaholic too.



Meet Samantha Sweeting, a 29-year-old high-flying lawyer. She loved her job as a lawyer, she loved the adrenaline rush when arguing at the court and getting her hands on a contract. Her dream was getting a partnership at Carter Spink, the best law firm in London. But she has made a mistake so huge, it'll wreck her chances in getting the partnership, or even worse, her career will be in trouble. Samantha got panic, took a train and ended up in the middle of nowhere. She tried to asked for directions and a glass of water at a mansion, but she was being mistaken as a housekeeper. The owner of the mansion has no idea that they had hired a lawyer. Samantha's life has changed once she got her new job as a housekeeper. She has no idea how to bake a cake, or how to iron the clothes, or how to work the &%^*@# microwave oven.. But her new life is just as delicious as the bread she learns to bake. Will her old life catch up with her? Will she ever find love? If her old life and career catch up with her, will she still want it back?

Sophie Kinsella's books are just amazing. Confessions of a Shopaholic, Shopaholic Takes Manhattan, Shopaholic Ties The Knot, Shopaholic And Sister, Shopaholic and Baby, Can You Keep A Secret?, The Undomestic Goddess, and also including her latest, Remember Me. I've finished all of them! Yay!

Speaking of Remember Me, now I think back, I did not do any review or whatever on Remember Me. So here it is:



Lexi Smart woke up in a hospital. From what she remembered what happened before her accident, she was out clubbing with her best buddies, then she fell when hailing a cab, and the next thing she knew, she was in a hospital. But the truth was not that easy. She was told that she has lost 3 years of her memory, plus, she met with the accident, in her Mercedes Convertible. She thought it was a joke, because she remembered, she did not know how to drive a car. And her job couldn't even afford a Mercedes. When she looked into a mirror, she got the shock of her life, her teeth is white and perfect, she's got manicures, her hair is stunning, new set of glamorous friends, her job as a director at the successful company, and she's married. And who is this drop dead gorgeous husband? Who also happened to be a multi-millionaire? Will she cope with her "new" life? Most of all, will she ever get her memory back?

Now I'm done with Sophie Kinsella's collection. Ready to get my hands on Cecelia Ahern, the best-selling author of P.S I Love You.

I'm currently reading:



And also,



Yes, I haven't finished The Host, the story is just soo complicated!
