I Am Having So Much Fun Here Without
You is the story of what happens when a man cheats on his wife. The man, Englishman Richard Haddon, is
married to beautiful Frenchwoman, Anne-Laure, with whom they have one
daughter. Richard has an affair, which
he blames partly on the fact that “I married my lover, time turned her into my
sister.” In other words, the thrill is
gone.
Richard’s wife finds out about the
affair after the mistress, Lisa, has broken it off. Richard is banished and comes to learn that
he values his wife and his family and wants to mend things. In some ways it is just another story about a cheating husband, but there are pitfalls and humor in some of the husband's antics as he tries to win his wife back.
I enjoyed the book, the writing is
good, and there are some good laughs in the story. In some ways I was reminded of Jonathan
Tropper’s writing. The story is told by
Richard and the book is written by a woman. I
thought she did an excellent job of writing in Richard’s voice. I look forward to more books by this author.
