Staying At Daisy's

I got to read another book this weekend and decided to pick up a British chick-flick, "Staying At Daisy's." Though over 400 pages, I was able to finish the book in two days and enjoyed my break from all the other poetry and Shakespeare we have been working on in class. Like every other chick-flick novel, this book had a similar plot. The husband cheated on the wife but before the wife could divorce him he ended up dying in a car accident and creating uncomfortable situations for everyone in his life. The wife can't date anyone else who is as high-standard as her deceased husband because she feels that he'll betray her like her late husband did. All in all, the book was a fun read with an unoriginal plot but was different than any of the other chick-flick novels I have read due to the fact that the author is British. The occasional word or two that did not have any place in our dictionary, would have to be looked up. The slight cultural change between these sibling countries really did make this book a joy to read. I'm definitively going to be reading more British novels in my upcoming book; it was a joy to read.
