Such a great book! I love books abt sisters (wish I had one) !t was lighthearted, funny, and super emotional and touching as well! I love s good swap and it really shows what we think when the grass is greener on the other side. Loved her first book & really enjoyed this one! Hope there is much more to come from her bc her writing is fantastic

Alice and Edie are identical twins, but far from identical in personality.

Alice, who has a huge instagram following, is basically a trad wife, though she's never quite described as such. Her life is devoted to running a perfect home and making the lives of her husband and children as easy as possible, ensuring none of them have to lift a finger for themselves. In the eyes of husband Danny, who has some frankly prehistoric ideas about gender roles (no son of his is ever setting foot in a kitchen), that's exactly how it should be.

Edie, on the other hand, is far more chaotic and laissez-faire. Her house is a tip and partner Seb and their two daughters can and do fend for themselves, while Edie works all the hours to keep them afloat financially. Her feminist principles are totally at odds with Alice's choice of lifestyle.

Both, of course, are horrified by each other's lives. But who's happier?

When their inability to see eye to eye starts causing more trouble than ever - including during the weekly breakfast TV slot where they're joint agony aunts - drastic measures are called for. They often pretended to be each other as children - why not see what life is like in the other's shoes for a while?

So begins the switch, known only to them.

It was hard to believe that the husbands didn't notice - well, maybe not in Danny's case - he's hardly ever there and barely notices Alice when he is. And kids tend to be pretty self-centred. But the attentive Seb surely wouldn't have been fooled. And identical as they are, there must be differences- hair, etc. It must take more than just switching clothes. But it's fine to suspend disbelief for a while!

This was loads of fun, with lots of awkward situations which highlight the difference between the sisters' lives. I loved the contrast between the two book clubs.

Edie doesn't know whether or not Danny's full name is Daniel, which seems an odd thing to not know about your brother-in-law - surely she was at the wedding? And I did take very mild exception to the portrayal of Fife as the possibly worst place on earth- my daughter's at uni there and loves it!

Five stars anyway for a super fun read.
