The Undomestic Goddess by Sophia Kinsella

This was the first Sophie Kinsella novel I ever read, and I remember laughing out loud numerous times as I was reading it. Kinsella, in this book and in others, has characters that find themselves in these impossible situations, and the more they try to make things better, the more entrenched and desperate they become. In this book the main character Samantha is inept at household chores, but following a series of events finds herself serving as a domestic for a wealthy couple. Great read and guaranteed for some good laughs!
