 ... would understand. But when her roommate finds her passed out, she panics and calls an ambulance, and next thing Rachel knows the word "overdose" is being thrown around, and she's being sent home to family, who in turn send her to rehab. Still, rehab can't be that bad can it? After all celebrities go there. They couldn't be TOO bad to them. Marion Keyes has managed a difficult subject admirably with this book. I'm impressed by the way she handles Rachel's mindset, writing believably through her conviction th...more

Premium Review Rachel's Holiday - Marian Keyes: Holiday from Hell with therapy! (859 words)
by WelshTigergirl - written on 22/02/04 (Very useful, 89 readings)

I have read quite a few of Marian Keyes books recently (something to do with the job lot I bagsied on eBay not long ago!) I have a very wide range of reading tastes from historical romance books to Shaun Hutson gore fests! I fancied a change and after the popularity of all the hype about Brigit Jones type thirty-something books, I thought I would give them a go. Rachel?s Holiday was the third Marian Keyes book I have read, and in my opinion one of her better ones. The Characters Obviously Rachel is the star turn in this book. Rachel Walsh is approaching thirty, living in New York, had a history of tragic failed romances and has finally found a ...

Premium Review Funny Junkie (321 words)

This is a brilliant book. I found myself giggling away like a loony to some parts,which may seem an odd thing to do seeing as the book is about a drug addict's journey to recovery. I don't have a sick sense of humour. Marion Keyes writes with a mixture of humour, perception and poignancy. The story often leaps from extremely funny to sad in the space of a few pages. Rachel Walsh, middle daughter of the raucous Walsh family last seen in Marion Keyes's 'Water Melon', is a social drug user. Well, that's what she thinks, those around her aren't so sure. After a stomach pumping trip to hospital she is persuaded into the Cloisters, a ...

by sheri3004 - written on 15/11/05 (Very useful, 399 readings)

“Rachel’s Holiday” is chick-lit, there’s no doubt about that. We can tell this at a glance because it is pink, has a pair of shoes on the cover and a girl’s name in the title. Oh – and because it’s by Marian Keyes, one of the undisputed queens of the genre along with Jane Green, Sophie Kinsella et al. Now, I have eclectic tastes in literature, as my choice of previous review subjects might suggest, and while it isn’t my staple reading matter, I have been known to dip my toe into the waters of the dreaded chick-lit. (Incidentally, it’s interesting how that slightly derogatory term is now used as a catch-all to describe – and to some extent dismiss – any ...
