I enjoy my escapism as much as the next girl and well a good piece of chick lit can be in order from time to time.
I have a penchant for the author Sophie Kinsella who also writes under her real name, Madeleine Wickham. So while I was travelling for work I picked up "The Gatecrasher" in the hopes that Ms. Wickham would provide me with an entertaining easy read.
And to be honest, I enjoyed the book quite thoroughly. That is until the last 30 pages or so.
I found the characters genuinely likeable; they were both flawed and honest (by times). Wickham managed to weave an intriguing story that kept me reading. But the last 30 pages struck me as a rushed ending, an author who was struggling to get to make a deadline, hoping that her readers didn't miss the storytelling left untold.
I certainly missed the ending the book should have had.
