Book Review - The Undomestic Goddess

I just read a wonderful book for fun - something I don't often do - and I finished it in one day. The book, The Undomestic Goddess, by Sophie Kinsella is the story of a driven young woman who is doing her best to be chosen as a partner in the most prestigious lawfirm of London. As you might expect, something has to come along to unsettle her - but what comes, and how she handles it, provides moments of deep belly laughs and nods of recognition from all women who have gone down the corporate career path, only to find they have been devoured by a job that has become their life. I thought the ending crumbled a bit, but not enough to keep one from reading the story. It's a good read with lots of laughs, and enough fodder for those who feel trapped in their professions to consider planting seeds of another kind to bring about a greater sense of fulfillment.
