This book is chic lit and one of the better ones I have accidentally read
Sometimes I accidentally read chic lit. That’s what I would call THE FIRST MISTAKE by Sandie Jones. I don’t like chic lit, and I rarely pick it up on purpose. But if you do like chic lit, this is probably one of the better ones I have accidentally read.
The book is divided into three parts.
Part 1 is Alice’s part. She is emotionally unstable and paranoid. She is on husband number two after husband number one was lost in the mountains. Husband number one seemed perfect, then didn’t; husband number two seems perfect, then doesn’t, then does, then doesn’t, then does, etc. Then there is also Alice’s best friend, Beth. She seems perfect, too, then doesn’t. Is all this due to Alice's unstable paranoia? Maybe so, maybe not.
Part 1 is SO predictable.
Then comes Beth's Part 2. Now we see some things that happened before Alice came into the story. But who is this man Beth has picked up? Part 2 is predictable, too, but less so than Part 1.
As much as I dislike chic lit, I have to admit, Part 3 is unpredictable. Alice suddenly becomes a businesswoman, making her own decisions about her own company. Beth and Alice figure everything out but not before lots of surprises.
If you are a fan of chic lit, Part 3 makes this a five-star novel. If you, like me, are not, Part 3 upgrades this to a two-star novel.
