Surprise Me, de Sophie Kinsella

Le tout dernier roman de Sophie Kinsella, sortie en février 2018.

Citation :

After being together for ten years, Sylvie and Dan have all the trimmings of a happy life and marriage; they have a comfortable home, fulfilling jobs, beautiful twin girls, and communicate so seamlessly, they finish each other's sentences. However, a trip to the doctor projects they will live another 68 years together and panic sets in. They never expected "until death do us part" to mean seven decades.

In the name of marriage survival, they quickly concoct a plan to keep their relationship fresh and exciting: they will create little surprises for each other so that their (extended) years together will never become boring. But in their pursuit to execute Project Surprise Me, mishaps arise and secrets are uncovered that start to threaten the very foundation of their unshakable bond. When a scandal from the past is revealed that question some important untold truths, they begin to wonder if they ever really knew each other after all.

J’ai terminé ma lecture de ce roman qui ne m’a pas autant plu que les précédents malheureusement. J’ai trouvé que l’héroïne se plaignait un peu trop et que, bien que certains thèmes abordés étaient intéressants, qu’ils n’étaient pas assez développés, par exemple la vie de couple à long terme.

Une lecture divertissante, mais pas aussi réussie que ses romans plus légers ou que Finding Audrey.
