REMEMBER ME?

Charlotte Parry manages to mine the full measure of comedy from this stand-alone novel by the author of the wildly popular Shopaholic series. Parry's timing is impeccable, and the spark she brings to the often embarrassing but always charming exploits of 28-year-old Lexie should win the author more devoted fans. Lexie has to piece her life back together after waking up in the hospital with no memory of the past three years. Suddenly, she has a new husband, a new job, even new teeth--but why is the life she's always dreamed of not making her happy? A perfect blend of romance and humor makes for diverting entertainment. The abridgment feels just right--you never get the feeling you've missed something. D.G. © AudioFile 2008, Portland, Maine [Published: JULY 2008]
