Chick Lit Classics: Miranda’s Big Mistake by Jill Mansell
Chick Lit Classics is a new feature on Chick Lit Reviews where we highlight the books we feel are classics of the chick lit genre. Feel free to discuss our choices in the comments section!
This week I’ve chosen one of Jill Mansell’s many novels as our Classic pick. I’ve read the majority of Jill’s books and I enjoy them time and time again. One that I still remember even now, even though I haven’t read it in a few years is Miranda’s Big Mistake. I thought it was a fab read and if you haven’t read it, you really must. It may be a decade old (it was originally released in 2000) but it definitely stands the test of time. It’s funny and it’s even sad but, above all, it’s romantic!
Miranda is thrilled when she meets Greg at a cocktail party. He’s gorgeous, he’s funny - and he’s very keen. Just what a girl needs to put some sparkle in her life. Heavens, he’s practically perfect! Greg likes Miranda a lot. She’s young, she’s pretty, and she never talks about babies. Of course he hasn’t told her everything about himself - even the sweetest girls can be a bit funny about a man who’s just left his newly pregnant wife. But there’s no way she’s going to find out - or is there? Luckily for Miranda men are like buses - you don’t see any for ages then three come along at once. She just needs to catch the right one...
