Although the plot of Wicked Pleasures is a tad more improbable than usual, and the characters flatter, it is a marvelous book to take on holiday, a long train journey or to relax with after a hard day's work. Intelligently written, it is 'wickedly' sophisticated and frothy, without being stupid. The pace is very fast, the situations inventive. If not a 'must', certainly a 'worthwhile'.
