I am returning with my new feature... Why I love which takes place on Wednesdays. Today's proclamation of love concerns our Favorite Funny Reads
Why I Love...Can You Keep a Secret
I think chick-lit is usually a bit cute and funny at moments but I have to say that Sophie Kinsella's Can You Keep a Secret is super special. I giggle a little bit just thinking of it. It's not just that Emma is a bit quirky and her inner reflections are laugh out loud funny, but it is also the way the other characters respond to her. They tease her and react to situations it the most hilarious ways. This book was funny because every character was funny even when they weren't trying to be. The situations were hilarious and Emma's secrets were funny because they were so real. For example, when one of Emma's roommates and very best friend finds out one of her secrets, her subsequent reaction to Emma is so funny. I couldn't had to rewind and listen to the section twice! Emma is a cute quirky character that probably shouldn't have told all her secrets to a stranger on a plane even if she thought she was going to die. But then again, the ticking time bomb on the information made this book all the more fun. I can't help but love books where the humor isn't forced. Funny just happens and I love that!
