Advantages: Unpredictable, witty and funny.

Disadvantages: None

There aren't many books in this world that really inspire me, but this book did in so many ways! It is way more than a 'chick book'.

The story is based on two characters, Natasha and Sophie. Both girls are so different, with Natasha who has an established and successful career working for 'Rollercoaster TV' and Sophie who is in a dead end relationship dreaming of life as a perfect housewife. Both characters are secretly envious of each others lives and this causes an akward friction in storylines between them both which ends when they end up reversing roles.

I think the story is so successful as women of all ages and backgrounds can relate to one of the characters and journey with them throughout the book with familiarity. It is so well written and explores so many storylines. Although some themes are unpredicted, the characters stay continuous which makes the suprises more thrilling.

Summary: A witty and hilarious book.
