The Marvelous Misadventures of Ingrid Winter
by J.S. Drangsholt
Rating: **** (4 stars)
Book Length: 217 pages
Genre: Chick Lit, Fiction, Humor
The Marvelous Misadventures of Ingrid Winter is a fun light read that shows us that mothers are the same no matter where in the world you happen to reside. Ingrid decides that the perfect house will make her and her family so much more complete. So she buys it for way more than she should.
To top it off, her attempts to blend into the background at work teaching at a university leads her to interoffice politics and a trip to Russia. All while she is trying to move, sell her old house, and fix the damage that she did with her husband and family.
This is a perfect book to read when you just want to know that you are not the only crazy person in the world. It is well written, funny, and maybe just a bit too realistic. My favorite aspect of the book is the ending. It is neither a happily ever after or a sad story. It is just the story of coming to peace with what you already have, and sometimes the mess that you have created.
