The Wish List by Melanie La'Brooy

Set in Melbourne, reading Melanie La ‘Brooy’s latest book The Wish List is like sitting down with a local cast of ‘Sex in the City’ meets ‘Friends’. The story revolves around a very likeable group of girlfriends—Chloe (think Charlotte from ‘Sex in the City’), Meg (think Samantha), Lucy (a scattier and cuddlier version of Carrie) and their various male interests. But the core of the story is the relationship between Lucy and Tom; an on again/off again couple who can’t seem to turn off their quirky bond.
