LoveReading Says

A beautifully constructed, absolute dream of a read. Three women (including the wickedly wonderful Emily from ‘The Devil Wears Prada’) join forces when one of them is set up, publicly discarded and viciously humiliated by her husband. Emily, Miriam and Karolina live what may appear to be a charmed jet-setting, party-licious life, however there is a very long way to fall when the knives are out. I absolutely adore Lauren Weisberger’s novels, they read as a master class in setting the scene and creating an eloquently enjoyable and pointedly wicked read. Each chapter focuses on one of the women, so perfectly describing their life I could not only picture myself there, I was there. My eye-popping disbelief mounted at the tactics, the lifestyle, and I seethed away, joining ranks, willing them on. A quick note, just in case you’ve already hunted this down and read it, ‘The Wives’ was published in the USA as ‘When Life Gives you Lululemons’. ‘The Wives’ is a hugely entertaining, read in one sitting, smoking-hot loaded gun of a read - and I highly recommend it.

Three Wives who have it all. Or do they? Looking for revenge when one of them is wrongly accused causes all of them to re-think what it is they really want. A racey good read for the beach this summer.

We first met Emily Charlton when she worked for Miranda Priestly in The Devil Wears Prada. Since leaving she started her own successful Celebrity Publicity Agency but is now losing clients, so when she hears about a friend who has been wrongly accused of a Drink Driving offence she sees this as a way to help her friend and her flagging career. They plan revenge on the husband when they realise he has set this whole thing up. With twists and turns along the way we discover that The Wives, who seem to have everything, are not as happy and secure as they they think they are, despite their money and glamorous lives....

Emily's back - and this time it's personal! If you only choose one book this summer, make sure it's The Wives!

Emily, Miriam and Karolina are three successful women who are all in the throes of coming to terms with changes in their once successful and privileged lifestyles.

When Emily's business starts to suffer at the hands of a younger rival, she decides to visit her friend Miriam, once a successful lawyer and now a stay at home mum. When Miriam's friend Karolina is set up by her husband as a way to seamlessly exit their marriage, the wives come together to clear Karolina's name and bring him down.

The Wives is a whip smart, funny and brilliant read.... Read Full Review

The perfect serving of a creamy, luxurious venti vanilla latte - with a shot of cheeky intrigue!

For fans of The Devil Wears Prada and its world of high-end fashion and luxe lifestyles, this is a must-read. The descriptions are as stylish as one could hope for, and Emily and Miranda have lost none of the "charm" that made us fall in love with them (or, in Miranda's case, at her feet...in awe/terror), in the first place. The plot is deliciously vengeful, and is just made to be a Netflix series one day.... Read Full Review
