I absolutely devoured this book! FMC Alice is 37 years old and fed up with the way her life is! After watching her ex get married, she is gifted a manifestation journal for Christmas and decides she will manifest her perfect life! This book is really funny at parts and Alice is such a brilliant FMC. I loved the relationship she had with her parents and two sisters, Astrid and Arrie, and this is a massive part of the book. Although Alice was manifesting certain parts of her life, she found out it wasn’t exactly what she wanted. Uplifting, funny read which will make you consider manifesting your perfect life!!

Alice Carver’s life is a mess, and somehow, it just keeps getting worse, and worse, and worse. Every little thing that could possibly go wrong does. Desperate for change, she decides to take control and manifest her dream life: the perfect boyfriend, house, job, and the respect she’s always craved. When she receives The Guide for Christmas, her journey to self-improvement begins.

Alice knows she’s a bit of a disaster, but she’s committed to change. Her efforts at manifesting do start to bring results, sort of. But she often misreads situations and tends to blame those around her for her problems. Her family doesn’t quite understand her, especially compared to her more successful siblings. There are so many moments where you just want to shake her, she’s ignoring the obvious and making questionable choices.

I found this a genuinely enjoyable read. The format of the story being told through entries in her manifestation journal is refreshing. The journal quotes and affirmations add humour and personality, and some of Alice’s entries had me laughing.

Just so gooood! Lighthearted, romantic, and humorous this book was like a modern Bridget Jones. I highly enjoyed the characters relatability and who would t want to manifest their perfect life that’s our main characters dilemma and it provides for the most entertaining and joyous book experience. One of my favorites in women’s fiction this year!
