“We will shortly be landing at Los Angeles International Airport. Please ensure your seat is in the upright position, that you weigh less than a hundred pounds and that you have excellent teeth”.
Who but the undisputed superstar of Irish fiction Marian Keyes could comment so aptly on the glamorous destination of the heroine in her latest novel Angels. Los Angeles, city of Angels, home of the super-thin and extreme where Marian fans will just howl at her descriptions of life in the fast lane, where even the palm trees are skinny.

James has absconded, leaving Claire with a new-born baby, a broken heart, heavier by nearly 30 pounds. In the absence of any better offer, Claire goes home to her family. To her beautiful sister Helen, her soap-watching mother, her bewildered father. And in a story that's both hilarious and bittersweet, Claire gets better. In fact so much better that when James reappears into her life he's in for a bit of a surprise.

Lucy doesn't even have a boyfriend. But Mrs. Nolan has read her tarot cards and predicted that Lucy will be walking up the aisle before the leaves have fallen on the ground again. Lucy's friends Karen and Charlotte are appalled at the news. If Lucy leaves it could disrupt their lifestyles eating take-outs, drinking too much wine, bringing men home and never vacuuming. Lucy reassures them that she's far too busy arguing with her mother and taking care of her irresponsible father to get married. But then Lucy meets Gus, gorgeous and unreliable.

They said I was a drug addict. But I was a middle-class, convent-educated girl. And surely drug addicts were thinner?
Life is good for Rachel Walsh. She has regular congress with Luke Costello, a man who wears his leather trousers tight and she’s fond - some might say too fond - of recreational drugs.
When she finds herself being frogmarched to Dublin’s answer to the Betty Ford Clinic, she’s outraged. But on the plus side, it’s bound to be full of celebrities in search of their inner child.
Heartsick and Luke-sick, Rachel is
airlifted from addiction to the unfamiliar terrain of adulthood, via a love story or two, in a novel by turns poignant, powerful and very, very funny.

Take three very different people . . .
Katherine, a sleek millennium woman with a powder-blue Karmann Ghia and a past buried like nuclear waste. She hasn't cried since 1988, she simply hasn't had time.
Fintan, who has the biggest Clinique collection in Notting Hill – he could open his bathroom to the public. He's in love with Sandro, the Italian pony – at five foot four, too short to be a stallion.
Tara, with a PhD in bad choices. Clothes, cars, men. Especially men. The current one carries his change in a little old ladies' purse. But when you're in the Last Chance Saloon you take what you get.

What a difference a year makes . . .
London magazine editor, Lisa Edwards, shiny and hard as an M&M, thinks her life has ended. Her 'fabulous' new job turns out to be deportation to Dublin, launching 'Colleen' magazine. If it weren't for the decorative presence of her new boss she might just turn on her Prada heel and take the first plane back. And Ashling Kennedy, 'Colleen's' assistant editor, has her own problems. There's a homeless boy asleep in her doorway, her life is overrun with stand-up comedians and she can't stop buying handbags. The person she envies most in the world is her oldest friend Clodagh, and for very good reason. Known as the princess, life has always delivered what Clodagh Kelly wants - and why not when you are traffic-stopping beautiful. She's living with her prince in a maple-floored castle. So why, lately, has she had the urge to kiss a frog? Sleep with a frog, if the truth be told.
