Mad About the Boy - Maggie Alderson
by chicklitreviews - written on 14/08/09 (Very useful, 49 readings)
Rating:

I enjoy reading books set in country s I ve never visited (but would like to!) as I usually get a great picture of said place. This book was set in Sydney and I ...

Handbags and Gladrags - Maggie Alderson

Rating:
held a good story for any age of person that is interested in fashion or the rigmarole of the high life that the fashion industry offers. Never having read Maggie Alderson before, I didn t have any idea of what her writing style was like. It s a good book to get yourself buried in and not a particularly quick read. It tells the story of those involved in the fashion business, and Maggie herself has been working in that business for a long time, so the background is a solid one. The main character is Emily, a girl with a past that is gradually uncovered during the course of the book. Her father was a famous artist, her mother a little eccentric and over-reactive, though ...

Pants on fire - Maggie Alderson Pants on fire is a novel about Georgia (Georgiana, but NOT Georgie!) Abbott who moves to Australia to escape from her life after she left her fiance who cheated on her. She moves from her job in London to a job on Glow magazine where she meets her friends that throw her straight into a whirl of A list parties, dancing, drugs and cowboys. She finds that men in Australia aren t all that different to those in London that she left behind. I started reading this book during my exams, as a chill out thing when I wasn t revising. But then I stopped because it wasn t any more interesting than textbooks! I got to page 120 and it wasn t going ...
