New York Times bestselling author of the Shopaholic series Sophia Kinsella delivers another fabulously fun tale writing under Madeleine Wickham. Sleeping Arrangements tells the story of two families who are "accidentally" double-booked at the same lavish Spanish villa of a mutual friend.

Chloe needs a holiday. She's sick of making wedding dresses, her partner Philip has troubles at work, and the whole family wants a break. Her wealthy friend Gerard has offered the loan of his luxury villa in Spain--perfect.

Hugh is not a happy man. His immaculate wife Amanda seems more interested in her new kitchen than in him, and he works so hard to pay for it, he barely has time for his children. Maybe he'll have a chance to bond with them on holiday. His old friend Gerard has lent them a luxury villa in Spain--perfect.

Both families arrive at the villa and realize the awful truth--Gerard has double-booked. What no one else realizes is that Chloe and Hugh have a history; and as tensions rise within the two families, old passions resurface. It seems that Gerard's 'accidental' double booking may not be an accident after all...

<p>“Award winning actress Katherine Kellgren's reading is light-hearted, witty, wise, and spot on. Her accents, even the Australian nanny, are amazing; her pacing perfect. Fun listening.” —<i>SoundLibrary.com</i><br><br>“Wickham creates memorable characters who are as unpredictable and multifaceted as they are stylish. Jolly fun.” —<i>Publishers Weekly on The Gatecrasher</i><br><br>“Wickham has a shrewdly malicious touch with her characters.” —<i>The Atlantic Monthly on The Gatecrasher</i></p>

I saw that this author wrote the Shopaholic series, so I was hoping for something a little more light-hearted and funny.

The word I would use to describe the tone of this book is

Just OK

I really enjoy sophie Kinsella and Madeline Wickhan 's writing style is very much like her.

witty and charming

Let's just say it was typical. The ending being a bit of a downer on the note of 'dinner' - I liked it up until the end so worth a listen. Everyone may not feel the same.

Not exactly the ending I would've

This book read more like a play than a novel. While there were a few times the prose was beautiful enough for me to rewind a sentence, it was very dialogue-heavy and the scenes took place in a small number of settings.. Also, much like a play, the character development seemed a bit deliberate, as if you simply must see the character change via dialogue in 2 hours.

It wasn't fun or funny like the Sophie Kinsella books I've read, but it was an okay way to pass the time.

Okay Story that Reads Like a Play

The British novels I love are packed with dry humor, sharp observations of life, witty asides. This one is not. It's just a simple little romantic plot whose wryest lines appear in the first few pages, so you can actually listen to them for free and save yourself the download. Still, I give it 3 stars because it did pass some otherwise boring time fairly enjoyably while I did my chores.

okayish... a bit dull

I don't understand the low ratings for this novel. I thought the story and the narration were perfect. It is a character-driven story. I didn't want to stop listening because I came to care about the characters and I wanted to know what would happen to them next. There is a lot of humor and a lot of "adult situations" (in that people are adults and have to come to terms with job issues, family relationships, choices, the past, etc). If you're looking for a romance novel with lots of torrid love scenes, then this isn't it! There is a bit of romance, but mostly it's about a group of well-written characters who have to deal with situations and each other. I loved the story and was sad to say goodbye to the two families when I finished.

Did I read the same novel?

I love Sophie Kinsella/Madeleine Wickhams books, however this was not her best. It was a nice story and the characters were good however the story line didn't really build up. The narrators accents were distracting too. Overall an ok read but not the best of her collection.

An ok read!
