pickI really enjoyed this alone-standing novel of Kinsella. There were a lot of funny and unoredictable scenes, even though they were over the top sometimes. It is definitely a good example of how families work or not, sometimes people prefer to keep things to themselves, but it is always ending with a big bang.
After years (I think about 15) of not reading Sophie Kinsella, I started this one and so far I am regretting to have taken this unintentional break. 🤣🤣🤣
pickI love Sophie Kinsella! So much fun reading her books, and I get so caught up in them, that I find any excuse to read, and stay up way past my bedtime to get a few chapters in. This one made me a little teary with all the intricacies that families have, as I can relate, and who doesn‘t love a happy ending? 💗
Chilled day of week off love my little laptop table #metime wine in my cup thing Book want to finish 4 chapter left till finished. The book marks on bottom pages I mark the chapters seems to keep me focussed. With paper clips at point book i at divide that by pages of the actual book then by how many days in the week want to and gives me so many pages a day to read so at least then I can get to at least one marker either way. Get through better
Split book into pages per night to finish in a week on days can so works out to 28 pages a day for paper clips or if tired my magnetic book marks are markers per chapter then makes me get to at least one marker :)
160 pages into this book reading on and off week off from Monday so will defo be reading my biggest destress and hobby is to read. #bigjunereadathon
pickEffie has fallen out with her father and his glamorous younger girlfriend. When her dad sells her childhood home, the girlfriend decides to throw a house cooling party (which I didn‘t know was a thing) but doesn‘t invite Effie. Effie is fine with that, but decides to crash in order to retrieve a treasured item left there by accident. But the night doesn‘t go down as planned! Many LOL moments!

pickRecent Sophie Kinsellas have been a little hit or miss for me, but this one was good. Like a lot of lighter fiction, this could‘ve probably been finished in chapter one if people would talk to each other, but what‘s the fun in that? I liked the premise of the MC not going to the last party at her family home but then ended up being there in secret. This was a fast read, and I may not remember much of it, but it was fun.
pickAn enjoyable read, Kinsella is such an easy read got me out of a bit of a reading slump 👍🏼
pick4.5⭐️ I don‘t know what it was about this book, but once I got into the book, I really couldn‘t put it down. I suppose a lot of it had to do with the fact that it was just a fun read and didn‘t require a lot of thought. Sometimes a girl just needs a bit of brain candy. #2022 #fiction #contemporary #bookreview #bookstagram
pickFirst time reading Kinsella. I thought the story was cute! There was a lot to unpack with the family.
pickAnother delightful read from Sophie Kinsella. Just what I needed after reading some darker books this month. I loved her portrayal of a disfunctional yet loving family and all the good times/ bad times that everyone endures with the ones they love. A party crasher crashing her own family party and the shenanigans that ensued had me laughing out loud. A hug in a book with a perfect blend of amusing and poignant moments. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
pickSophie Kinsella‘s latest is consistent fare—part rom-com, part family dramedy. Read my full review here: https://debbybrauer.org/#the-party-crasher
so-soThis may be my last Kinsella book 😢
For episode 77 of the Brit Lit Podcast, I got to interview mega bestselling author Sophie Kinsella about her new book The Party Crasher, the role of music in her life, writing comedy during a pandemic, what her favourite biscuit is, and a whole lot more.

pickI'm a huge Sophie Kinsella fan,but have felt very let down by her last few books, particularly the quite execrable 'Love your life'.This book is a triumphant return to form.Charming,moving,funny and nuanced characters,the treatment of one in particular being absolutely stellar.5/5 stars,and even more.Read this immediately!!
pickI was so ready for another SK book and this didn‘t disappoint. I couldn‘t put it down. It‘s funny, it‘s sad, it‘s heartwarming and a perfect autumn cozy read
pickI‘ve enjoyed Kinsella‘s novels for years and her latest one (hitting the shelves 10/12/2021) is no exception! It revolves around a family saying goodbye to their childhood home amongst their own dramas. Narrator Effie is the youngest and taking the changes the hardest. She becomes the titular crashed at the house-cooling party- learning more about her family, friends and herself in the process! Funny and fun to read, I loved every minute!
pickThis was very typical Kinsella and I thoroughly enjoyed it. She writes delightful stories that always have a Happy Ever After, it is just a bit of a mess (in a good way) to get there. If you are looking for a lighter read, that will make you laugh, run and pick this up, you will not be disappointed.

pickIf you can get past all of the over-the-top situations Effie gets herself into, this is a wonderful book. I loved it! Effie‘s family imploded 2 years ago with her “perfect” parents‘ divorce, her father‘s new younger girlfriend and her beloved home going up for sale. In her efforts to say goodbye to her home, she finds herself in some HILARIOUS and preposterous predicaments. This story is about learning to let go, making peace with change 🔻
so-soIf you lived the Shopaholic series, you‘ll love this. Unfortunately, I don‘t. This book fell in the annoys me category, Which is a shame because, except for our heroine Effie, I liked everyone else. She was quite selfish thinking only about her feelings. And she had a tendency to jump to conclusions a lot. The story, minus her craziness, was quite heartfelt and entertaining. I did enjoy the comical moments though!
