Book review: My Disorganised Life by Nina Whyle
I truly enjoyed this book. This is fun chick lit story with Eve Poots obsessive list maker, trying to take control and live life to the fullest after rough and publicly humiliating breakups. There is lots of humour and all round funny moments, the writing duo that makes up Nina Whyle did a fantastic job.
In my 2016 reading challenge, this is book 18 of 60.
Goodreads Summary:
A viral video of drunkenness and vomiting over a policeman is the stuff of nightmares, and so is living back home with your religious, nutty parents. Fed up with life not going her way and turning quietly insane, Eve Poots comes up with a plan. Well more of a list of “things to do while I’m still twenty-something”.
Six months later, and the list is working its power: she is now living with her new boyfriend, junior doctor Adam, and working as an assistant to TV producer Alastair on a reality show – life really is on the up.
But then it all starts to crumble and she soon realises that what the list should have really said was:
1. Awful colleague hell-bent in making your life agonising – check
2. Unplanned engagement – check
3. Lusting for dashing TV director when you have a perfectly decent boyfriend at home – check
4. Seeking help from a sex therapist – check
5. Growing a back-bone – pending
Has her life suddenly turned into a TV melodrama of its own?
