Well-done epistolary novel with a satisfying ending. This is a perfect light-enough book with tons of interesting, fabricated case law in a nonexistent state, Narragansett. Bring this book to the beach or download it during a flight delay.
Sheer stubbornness is the only reason I finished this book. There was no real story or character development. It was filled with excruciating details of the divorcing couples' finances, divorce settlement, and other legal information instead of an actual story.
Sophie is a criminal law attorney. When no divorce lawyer is available to meet a big client, she finds herself stuck with the case. She's far from being at ease, having gone through her parents' divorce. But maybe another kind of lawyer is exactly what was needed in this divorce...
The story is entirely told through letters, emails, articles, decisions and other types of documents. Even though it could make the story hard to follow, I thought that it was successful in that book. I felt like I had learned a lot about Sophie, her parents, friends and colleagues, Mia (the divorcing client), her daughter Jane and the ex-husband. It was an easy and fast read. The back cover presented the book as funny; I did not laugh a lot, but was entertained anyways.
Disclaimer: I received the book through the Giveaways program.
