Newly arrived in the country, Isabella is ready to bring a dash of London glamour to the school gate and gain a whole new set of followers – though getting past the instant coffee, terrible hair and own-brand sausage rolls may be a challenge!

But as her Latvian au pair’s behaviour becomes increasingly bizarre and a national gossip columnist nurses a grudge, Isabella finds herself in need of true friends and begins to wonder if her life really is as picture-perfect as she thought…

This will lift your spirits! I look forward to the sequel, the prequel and more - #Absolutelyfabulous #Yummymummies #holidayreading. Author Sophie Neville

I love this book. It was such a fabulous read, and the character, Issy, is hilarious. At first, she seems simply a snob, but over time, you learn more about her and her background. I love the other characters as well, especially the awful mum, the sweet sister, and let's not even talk about the husband...There are various interesting lines going through the book. I just could not put it down, and I can't wait for the sequel. Maressa Mortimer

After such a resounding success with her first book 'The diary of Isabella M Smugge', Ruth Leigh does not disappoint with her eagerly (ok, impatiently!) awaited sequel [The trials of Isabella M Smugge]…I genuinely loved it and I'm only sorry that I have already finished reading it! Emma Ford
