Rating: 5 stars
Summary: The best of Lisa Jewell's first three books
Review: Of Lisa's books the first I picked up was Ralph's Party. She developed the characters in that book really well and I was quite engaged in the story. Before I even finished that book I ran out (well ran to my computer) and purchased Thirtynothing and One-Hit Wonder. I was a bit let down by Thirtynothing. It's a fun and fine read but missed the mark a bit for me.

Where the other two fell slightly short, I felt One-Hit Wonder shined. The characters are very engaging (although I do agree with the reviewed who felt Flint's character could have been revealed more) and the story unfolds very well, with originality and mystery. I was captivated and never bored or right when I was guessing where it would lead. You just keep going around corners and seeing something you hadn't expected.

A very enjoyable and memorable read!

I see she has a new book now and will buy it immediately when it comes out in paperback in a few weeks.
