As it turns out, my reading ...

Traci Bennett is the BEST for this book on CD

+ The epitome of brit chik lit?

I had listened to this book through the library and then borrowed it again later, but with a different reader. It was not NEARLY as entertaining by the other reader, so you ONLY want the one read by Traci Bennett!
