the money to go home early she boards a train to France to meet up with a
friends who is working at a French chateau for the summer. But
trouble seems to follow her there and she keeps opening her mouth at the wrong
time.
Review:
I
love Meg Cabot (and really what girl doesn’t, she wrote The Princess Diaries!) so I thought I should try one of her “adult”
books and I’m glad I did. This is
serious chick-lit, and I loved every minute of it. I listened to it on
audio and the reader was great! As a person, Lizzie got on my nerves but
her adventurous spirit was very fun. One thing I didn't expect from this
book were the vivid settings. When she gets to the French chateau and
vineyard I really felt like I wanted to be there too! It made for a nice
change in your usual setting for a chick-lit novel. This book was an easy
listen and I would recommend it to anyone who likes this genre or just wants a
fun summer read!
