Finding Audrey by Sophie Kinsella Review

This is one of my old post of my last blog. I thought this was one of my favorite author so, I include this in my new blog.

An anxiety disorder disrupts fourteen-year-old Audrey’s daily life. She has been making slow but steady progress with Dr. Sarah, but when Audrey meets Linus, her brother’s gaming teammate, she is energized. She connects with him. Audrey can talk through her fears with Linus in a way she’s never been able to do with anyone before. As their friendship deepens and her recovery gains momentum, a sweet romantic connection develops, one that helps not just Audrey but also her entire family.

I have been craving for Sophie Kinsella book for months. Finally, I got the opportunity to read her new book. And, Sophie Kinsella has never put my expectation down.

This is her new young adults book which I found very fresh and hilarious. I cannot stop myself from giggling and laughing. She invents the best ridiculous humour and scenes.

This book tells us about Audrey’s life, which is simply disrupted by her mental problem. By reading this book, it tells us so much about life, going down, going up, slipping down, picking up again. The choice is in our hand. Life is not going to run smooth on us. We will face problems, it might be small problem or big problem and we just have to face it. Sometimes, everything will not run as exactly as our thoughts. That is just how life works. Same as Audrey. As she pushed herself over and over -to avoid the jagged graph-, life just did not want to let her having a successful line graph. It teaches us to be patient and kindly face whatever the problem we have.

Sophie Kinsella created the best family as the family helped Audrey to recover from her disorder. Her hilarious mum, addicted to Daily Mail and always tried to create everything based on the Daily Mail. Her super clueless Dad, always had no power against her mum. Her sarcastic and smart older brother, Frank who was addicted to LOC -games-. Super cutie Felix tried to ruin mood in the family every time. Lastly, her sweet new boyfriend Linus –I mean the sweetest thing ever-. They all made me finish the book happily.

As for the plot, I do not expect anything. But I was quite curious about the backstory, how Audrey got the mental disorder and it looks like, Audrey had no intention to explain to us. So, I keep my hopes down and just guess until the end of the book.

For Sophie Kinsella’s books, I do not expect any thrilling plots or super amazing story. I just hope I can escape world for a while and have fun while reading her book. And, I truly enjoy this book.
