Summary: One-Hit Wonder is a hit!
Review: Lisa Jewell is one of the best British chick lit writers out there. I thought her previous books, Ralph's Party and Thirtynothing, were great, but she's outdone herself with One-Hit Wonder!Ana Wills has always romanticized the life of her half-sister, Bee Bearhorn, a pop star who had a #1 hit record in the eighties. But then Bee appears dead in her London apartment. Now Ana must find the cause of her sister's mysterious death. This is chick lit mixed with a bit of mystery, which makes this novel even more enjoyable to read. One-Hit Wonder should be on every chick lit fans' list of summer must-reads! I urge to read it.

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.
