4.0 out of 5 stars Brilliant!, 10 Feb 2005
After reading Andrea Semple's more recent chick-lit offering, The Make-Up Girl, I simply had to read this one. After all, Semple's wit and giggle-out-loud humour always provide a brilliant read. The Ex-Factor (a novel about sex, relationships and other natural disasters) is definitely pleasing.

Heroine Martha Seymore is an agony aunt for a high-profile women's magazine. Actually, no - she's a relationship consultant. Her job being the advice-giver to many a hopeful reader with noone else to turn to, it is quite ironic when Martha has to deal with a big relationship problem of her own - an unfaithful boyfriend.

Reluctantly stepping into the shoes of her readers for once, Martha has to deal with her problems maturely. Though cheating Luke soon becomes just one of her life worries. With her relationship constantly on her mind, and the emerging ex-boyfriends who she still feels a little attached to, there is also her bitchy schoolmate Desdemona, overly-organised best friend Fiona, and flamboyant new flatmate Jaqui. On top of all this, there is also Martha's job which may be lost if she's not careful!

I must admit that I enjoyed The Make-Up Girl a little bit more, though The Ex-Factor is definitely a brilliant read. An amusing love story teamed with the harsh reality of infidelity, along with a hint of bitchiness. I would recommend this to any avid chick-lit fan.
