Angels
by
Marian
Keyes
A
new
Marian
Keyes
novel
is
always
something
to
celebrate,
and
her
sixth
novel,
Angels,
will
have
you
cheering.
From
the
first
couple
of
sentences:
"I'd
always
lived
a
fairly
blameless
life.
Up
until
the
day
I
left
my
husband
and
ran
away
to
Hollywood,
I'd
hardly
ever
put
a
foot
wrong"
to
the
hugely
satisfying
last
page,
you're
immediately
involved
in
the
story
of
Maggie
Walsh's
life;
of
how
it
went
wrong,
and
then
went
right
again.
The
Walshes
starred
in
a
previous
Keyes
novel,
the
delightful
Rachel's
Holiday;
Maggie
is
Rachel's
older
sister,
(one
of
five)
and
the
only
one
who
"never
did
any
of
that
nasty
sleeping
around
business".
Instead
she
got
married
to
her
first
boyfriend
Paul
Garvan
and
everything
was
fine,
until
they
suffered
a
couple
of
"setbacks".
Unable
to
face
sorting
out
the
difficulties,
Maggie
hightails
it
to
Los
Angeles
to
stay
with
her
old
pal
Emily.
Emily
is
a
script
writer,
her
short
film
A
Perfect
Day
was
a
big
hit
in
Ireland,
but
her
working
life
is
a
little
tougher
in
the
land
of
sunshine
and
fat-free
Pringles.
The
two
girls,
along
with
a
supporting
cast
of
wannabes,
scary
film
studio
folk
and
slacker
next
door
neighbours,
get
on
with
sorting
out
their
emotional
issues
in
a
stylishly
witty,
wonderfully
warm
fashion.
Maggie's
devilish
ex-boyfriend
and
the
commitment
phobic
Troy
add
in
a
delightful
frisson
of
sexual
tension.
Marian
Keyes
observations
on
the
foibles
of
love
and
LA
are
laugh-out-loud
funny,
but
there's
a
beguiling
tenderness
there
too.
By
the
time
you
reach
the
final
full
stop
you'll
be
sighing
with
contentment,
and
just
wishing
that
Marian
would
get
a
move
on
with
the
next
book.
