Title: Rachel's
holiday
Author: Marian Keyes
Genre: humor/"chick-lit"
Rating: 
Rachel is the middle
sister/daughter of five, 26 years old. She is Irish, living in New York with her
friend Brigit for the past couple of years, recently trying to have a meaningful
relationship with Luke, one of the "Real Men" (how awful!). So, her
life is very normal, except for the fact she is a drug addict. Everybody says
so, but herself. Still, she is sent to a treatment center what she sees as a
holiday with bubble baths, massages and lots of famous people. Was she wrong!
The situations
described are 100% entertainment and/but, I'm afraid to say, recognizable. The
way Rachel thinks and does is weird and still you can think of doing it yourself
that way. (Or maybe that's just me.)
The book is not just
funny, but laugh out loud hilarious. What did it for me, is the choice of words and the style of writing.
Marian Keyes proves she is one of the best in her genre.
