Written under her real name (Madeleine Wickham) and not nearly as frothy as the Shopaholic series, this little novel offers sensible insights into human relationships and the heedlessness of youth. At eighteen, Milly thought everything was fun, certainly dressing up in wedding finery and getting married to help a friend. Ten years later, she had to face the consequences. Bubbly, with an unusual theme and a serious base - an ideal read for holiday and relaxation.
