British Indian Nina Mistry is spending the eve of her 30th birthday in jail. Add that to her recent breakup, her layoff at work, and a forced move back to her mother’s home, it tops the list for worst night ever. In an effort to get through the night, she begs her jailer for something to read. He provides her with a self-help book. After leaving jail, she applies it to her life in humorous and moving ways. Sanghani (Virgin; Not That Easy) narrates her own novel and takes her audience on a hilarious romp. Listeners will also hear the novel authentically confronting serious and sometimes difficult topics, ranging from suicide to sexual orientation.
VERDICT Highly recommended. Sanghani’s latest will appeal to readers of light-hearted fiction or humor and those who might need a nudge toward loving themselves.
