Many thanks to NetGalley, Dial Press, and Sophie Kinsella for the opportunity to read and review her latest book. As always, a great read from this author!
Fixie is so named because from a young age she had the need to try and fix things. After her dad died, Fixie was the one who stepped In to help her mom run Farrs, a household store in London. Her dad always stressed family first, and that was something that Fixie always did. So no matter that her two siblings didn't help out at Farrs, no matter that they put her down and she couldn't speak her mind. Family first.
When she is in the local coffee shop one day, she ends up saving a stranger's laptop when the roof collapsed. He was so grateful to her and wrote an IOU on the coffee sleeve. This turns into a back-and-forth of pay backs. Meanwhile, that backbone that Fixie so needed to form was becoming stronger - but how does that fit in with family first?
A fun, entertaining story with a good message - and I wish there was a Farrs close by!
