Wolves in Chic Clothing: A Novel ReviewAfter being entertained but a tad disappointed with The Right Address, the first novel from these authors, I was much more pleased with their second novel. Wolves in Chic Clothing follows Julia, a beautiful California transplant who dreams of being a jewelry designer while working as a salesgirl at Pelham's, a large, famous NYC jewelry store.
Julia's life changes one day when she delivers a necklace to Lell Pelham for her wedding, and gets adopted by Lell and her friends- Polly, a catty, wealthy woman who ignores her baby son, and Hope, a genuinely nice and happy person, who has to hide her and her husband's money troubles from friends, despite being pretty happy. The book follows the adventures of all of the characters, but mostly focuses on Julia, who accidentally catches the eye of Lell's new husband, Willoughby.
This novel was fun and gossipy, but had a lot more heart than the Right Address, and more likeable characters. It was funny to see a few characters from the first book come through to the second! I great, fun read.Wolves in Chic Clothing: A Novel Overview

Emily Ever After ReviewDisappointing. (I must have a new edition, because my cover DOES mention this a christian book though.)
The plot is really weak and confusing - and I personaly don't know of any christians who would advocate preventing people with other opinions from publishing their essays! What next?
I remained frustrated until the end that the Brittany plotline was never followed up, and felt most of the secondary characters to be underdeveloped.
The student/young professional lifestyle is well described. And the absence of God in everyday life balanced by the occasional outbursts of moralism and choice of 2 or 3 stereotypical "causes" (no sex before marriage, drinking) as representive of what the christian should and shouldn't be like, is unfortunately an exact reflection of the typical "backslidden" city christian of today.
i.e. the priorities are all wrong - it's quite unfortunate that a whole chunk of christianity today apparently sees no sex no drink as the substance, rather than one of many symptoms of the christian life. It's no surprise that these people whose faith lacks depth (including Emily in the book) often find themselves playing with the borders.
It begs the question - have the authors got beyond that stage themselves?Emily Ever After Overview
