My Not So Perfect Life

A glamorous London job, a filtered Instagram life and a very awkward holiday booking.
Reading guide
This is a single novel, so there is no reading order to follow.
After losing her glamorous-looking London job, Katie moves back to Somerset to help her dad with his glamping business. When her former boss Demeter arrives with her family for a holiday, Katie must decide whether to seek revenge or try to win back her position, and she begins to see that Demeter's perfect life may not be what it seems.

Description

Katie Brenner's Instagram tells a lovely story: a London flat, a glamorous job and a stylish life. The reality is a rented room too small for a wardrobe, a grim commute and a lowly admin post under Demeter, a boss who seems to have everything. When Demeter sacks her, Katie goes home to Somerset to help her dad with his new glamping business, and London starts to feel very far away.

Then Demeter and her family book in for a holiday, and Katie has a choice to make: take her revenge or try to win her job back. Sophie Kinsella mixes farce and warmth in equal measure, asking whether anyone's polished life is quite what it seems. It is a funny, generous comedy for anyone who has ever compared themselves to a filtered photograph.
