Will Clare and Mimi ever realise their hearts' desires? Or will they feng shui themselves into an organic knot whilst trying?
Notting Hell is a surprisingly well-penned if pink and fluffy fictional frolic. The author, Rachel Johnson has a newspaper column, rather unexpectedly, in The Times and a somewhat infamous brother called Boris - you may therefore not be surprised to learn she regularly contributes to The Spectator. Notting Hell is her second foray, the first of which, [[''The Mummy Diaries: Or How to Lose Your Husband, Children and Dog In Twelve Months]] '' I understand, made it on to the best seller list for an indecent period of time.
So it seems that Rachel has made the leap from journo to chick-lit author with a modicum of success. I have no doubt that Boris and chums have read his sister's offerings and it was probably irresistible not to feature them, homogenously, in various character traits throughout, particularly given some of the reviews I have read and their unexpected male sources.
