Summary: Wickedly funny and intelligent -- RDI's best book to date!
Comment: I have read most of Red Dress Ink's books and roared with laughter and sometimes recognition, for smart and single women are RDI's target readership. However, despite the fact that I have enjoyed RDI's books, I couldn't help but notice that said novels are a bit too lighthearted and predictable -- that is until I got my hands on Name and Address Withheld.
This latest installment touches on the delicate and complex issue of infidelity -- and it's done with wicked humor and intelligence. Lizzie Ford is London's hottest agony aunt -- a "sexpert" in a glossy women's magazine and radio chat show. Her life takes a quantum leap forward when she meets the man of her dreams. But little does Lizzie know that her Prince Charming -- otherwise known as Matt -- is stuck in an unhappy marriage with an ambitious woman named Rachel. To make matters worse, Rachel has sought out Lizzie's help -- unaware of the fact that Lizzie is Matt's mistress. Now Lizzie is torn between love and professional ethics. What will happen to Lizzie? Should she follow her heart and pursue her happiness, or should she help Matt and Rachel rekindle their marriage? There are some twists and fun surprises throughout the novel.
Jane Sigaloff addresses the controversial issue of wives and mistresses with brilliance and insight. This is by far Red Dress Ink's best book to date. Buy Name and Address Withheld for every woman you know with a brain and a sense of humor. I await this talented British author's next work with anticipation...

Summary: Not what I expected from Red Dress Ink.
Comment: I am a fan of Red Dress Ink. The books are quirky and feel good fun. Name & Address Withheld was a real departure from the other RDI titles as the plot was much more complicated and there were several points of view so you got to know several characters instead of one fun single girl.
The idea behind this story was good. A love triangle with a twist. But there were too many twists in the twist. There were too many character realtionships and little depth to any of them(Clare's love life, Lizzie's relationship with her mother, Matt and Rachel, Matt and Lizzie, Clare and Lizze, Clare and Matt, Clare and Ed, Clare and Joe, etc) it got a littling tiring.
As a married gal I take infidelity very serious and thought Matt got off way too easy (even if he was married to a psycho). I especially think Clare attitude toward him at the end was unbelievable.
Though I finished the book feeling quite unsettled I would read other titles by this author. She has potential and if there were less characters her books would be great to read.
I recommend reading this book. Everyone seems to have a unique reaction to it and it is captivating even if I was a little annoyed at the end.

Summary: Twist: you side with the other woman
Comment: Well, this is a delightful twist on an old theme with hints of British manor house mysteries. Lizzie is a an agony ad columnist (like Dear Abby) and falls in love with a married man, Matt. Matt's wife senses something is afoot and writes for advice to...yes, Lizzie. A highly charged confrontation is inevitable. Great read.
