The Best, Most Beloved (and Work Is Fine Too)

Isabella’s life turned out badly: her acting career didn’t work out, her outfits leave something to be desired, the sofa is falling apart, and her boyfriend is no help. After an especially miserable Christmas, she decides to get her act together and sends her résumé everywhere. And happiness—she really does get invited to work in a circus. The only problem is: they expect professional acrobatic tricks, but even at school her physical education wasn’t great. Still, Isabella isn’t the type to give up—she finds a trainer and starts learning how to do flips. What could possibly go wrong? Many readers will find Isabella reminiscent of Bridget Jones—only in a practical, active Swedish way. Despite all her misadventures, Isabella doesn’t lose optimism and keeps inventing new and new tricks to make it happen. Martina Haag describes everyday life with such comic flair that it’s impossible not to laugh. This hilarious romantic comedy is the best choice to rest your soul.
