Review
Praise for A WAG Abroad and The Wag's Diary: 'A fun-filled read to take away on your hols.' Closer 'Hilarious page-turner' Look Magazine 'This rags-to-riches-to-rags tale of wannabe WAG Tracie Martin cannot fail to amuse everyone.' The Mirror 'Set to become the unofficial rulebook for every WAG watcher' Cosmopolitan 'It's hilarious' Love It! Magazine 'A real page-turner. I laughed out loud. Instead of relying on paparazzi shots to feed our obsession, Alison Kervin's compelling novel means we can all now be voyeurs into the ritzy and ridiculous world of the WAG. Brilliant.' Sandra Parsons, Features Editor, The Times

Product Description
You can take the WAG out of Luton but you can't take Luton out of the WAG!. Tracie Martin is back! But this time everyone's favourite Wag is in LA, City of Angels - and her idol Victoria Beckham! But it's not all California dreaming. Whilst husband Dean swaps life on the subs bench for coaching the LA Raiders and daughter Paskia-Rose is busy settling into her new school, Tracie is left twiddling her manicured fingers. It seems LA's not ready for WAGS - the women are naturally golden rather than fake bake orange, there's no boozing and everyone is thinner than her - surely that's not possible when she last ate a proper meal in 1997? But at least there's plenty of cosmetic surgery! Enter Jamie, a knight in shining Lycra. He'll show Tracie the sights of LA A's sights - including the Beckhams. But is he all that he seems? Before long, Tracie is sampling all the city has to offer - including South Central street gangs and cheerleading lessons. But then her long-lost father turns up - at the same time as she discovers someone has stolen her identity. Can Tracie leave LA with her pride, bank balance and marriage - not to mention her fake tan - intact?Find out in the funniest read this summer - guaranteed beach material.

5.0 out of 5 stars Hilarious, 14 Aug 2008
By H. Wyld (Cardiff) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Having read A WAGs Diary and loved every minute of it (was late for work because I couldn't put it down on more than one occasion) I just had to get this book. However, I was a little apprehensive as I wondered whether the humour of the 1st book could continue to remain fresh - I needn't have been!! This book is as funny as the 1st and makes you laugh out loud.

I won't go into details about the plot as wouldn't want to spoil it, but if you enjoyed a WAGs Diary, you'll love this just as much!

4.0 out of 5 stars Tracie Martin is back, and she's dafter than ever!, 13 Sep 2008
By L. Felthouse "Avid reader and published writer" (Derbyshire, UK) - See all my reviews
(TOP 500 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)      
The Queen WAG is back with her second book about her new life in LA. Tracie, husband Dean and daughter Paskia-Rose have moved to Los Angeles for Dean's new job as a football coach. That's the British version of football, not the version where guys run around in padding and helmets!

For those that haven't read the first book, you really need to before you read this one. Buy them both together and laugh yourself silly. Tracie Martin is a deluded woman who genuinely believes that WAGs should rule the world. If a woman doesn't spray tan to within an inch of her life, then smother her skin in foundation and have manicures twice a week, Tracie thinks they're insane. In her eyes, all women should be blonde, with bright orange skin and wear tiny clothes. Anyone else is beneath her, and must be corrected.

Tracie adores her husband, but feels a little pushed out when he starts his new job in the States. He's so busy, and eager to make a good impression that Tracie is frequently left alone. And with so much time on her hands, it's no surprise that she gets herself into trouble. Soon, she has made friends with a sexy young man and they terrorise LA together. Tracie believes that the gorgeous Jamie genuinely cares about her and is her new best friend. The problem is, he's not quite what he seems...

Within weeks of being in America, Tracie is stalking Victoria Beckham, meeting up with her long-long father, getting tee-total LA types off their trolleys and collaborating with criminals. Basically, Tracie is being her usual barmy self. And she's great! Despite the fact she's silly and shallow, you'll find yourself loving her, and laughing out loud at her escapades. I did, several times! Underneath her orange exterior, Tracie has a heart of gold and loves her family, and although she has a funny way of showing it, you'll warm to her nevertheless.

This is a great example of a novel being character-led. The scrapes Tracie gets into are hilarious and silly, but she's such a strong and well-portrayed character, that if she were a real person, you could actually believe these things would happen to her!

The book is a laugh a minute. Beware if you read it in public though, you're bound to get some funny looks from people because you'll be chortling to yourself. This is a great continuation of the previous book, and if you like chick-lit, you'll love this!

5.0 out of 5 stars fab fun, 6 Aug 2008
I read Wag's Diary and enjoyed it so I bought this book to see what happened next to the main character who is a Wag called Tracie Martin. This book was a real adventure with theft, stolen identity and America's most wanted criminals. I loved it when TRcaie was trying to audition for the cheerleaders by accident. It made me laugh in loads of places, and I loved it when she had to pretend to be a pool cleaner in order to getinto the Beckhams' house that was funny. More please

3.0 out of 5 stars Not bad
Fun but in no way as good as the original WAG book. Recommended for a little light reading if you enjoyed the first book but im not sure that I will be reading it again.
