The Wish List

De: Sophia Money-Coutts

Narrado por: Sophia Money-Coutts

This Christmas, love is top of Florence Fairfax’s wish list.

‘You want me to write a list? Like a shopping list?'

'Exactly. But for what you want from a man.’

Florence Fairfax might have been single for quite a while – well, forever, actually – but she isn’t lonely. She loves her job at the little bookshop in Chelsea and her beloved cat Marmalade who keeps her company at night. She’s perfectly happy, thank you.

So when Florence meets an eccentric love coach who asks her to write a wish list describing her perfect man, she refuses to take it seriously. Until later that week, Rory, a handsome blond man with the sexual athleticism of James Bond she asked for just happens to walk into the bookshop…

Rory seems to tick all of the boxes on Florence’s list. But is she about to discover there’s more to love than being perfect on paper?

Reseñas de la Crítica

"The new queen of the rom-com returns." (i)

"Saucy...fizzing comedy in this slice of escapism." (Metro)

"Full of wit, warmth and heart." (Beth O’Leary, The Flatshare)

Funny and engaging

This book was funny with a great story. I laughed out loud on many occasions. What a great distraction from everyday life!

Unique & fun read, not shallow

This is my 1st read by this British author, who also narrates her book with a lovely but a bit fast-paced British accent. The book strikes a good balance between entertaining & serious & is both a romance and a life-story. It presents an interesting plot & characters. Worth the read if you don't mind the British accent, which I don't but I know some people have more difficulty enjoying audiobooks with certain types of accent, so just heads up.

Sweet and funny

I love the writer and that she narrates her writing. The story was not that in depth other than a gloss of the characters but for a beach read it is perfect.

Loved it!

A really descriptive book with characters that are easily identifiable. I am an expat living in Abu Dhabi and previous to that hailed from Fulham so this book really transported me back to my old life and made me look forward to Christmas! Can’t wait for the next one.

Perfect for a road trip!

I liked this book a lot. British women (especially romcom leads) are oh so similar. this one is no different. but it's a silly story about trying to find the balance in love. as I'm 35 and not had a boyfriend, I understand some of Flo's thought process, which bored some of the other reviewers. There's not much surprise and not especially deep, so perfect if you need to smile whole driving hours to go camping with 2 pups that don't provide much conversation.
