This is an epistolary novel of about 460 pages. It is entirely composed of memos, emails, and various legal documents told from the point of view of Sophie Diehl, a young criminal attorney who is drafted by her boss to handle a divorce. The divorce, of course, is rather long and drawn out, being between a very wealthy oncologist and his wife. This book reads really quickly and is loads of fun. Part of the fun is because Sophie slips a number of literary references in her notes and emails and the book is fairly oozing with them. Some of them went over my head, some were pretty overt, and others still were very slyly inserted. Along the way, Sophie learns a thing or two about divorce and the law and friendship and family. A fun read for sure!
