All You Need is Love (And a big handbag) by Julie Hodgson is a romantic, humorous story that will appeal most to an audience made up primarily of adults, though some mature young adults, who enjoy romance stories with humor and adventure mixed in, may also enjoy the novel. The story follows Maggie, her husband Jake, and their children as Maggie attempts to discover if Jake is being unfaithful to her. Maggie’s quest to find the truth leads her into a dangerous adventure that she never would have expected.

I have to say right off the bat that the cover is not only beautifully done, but also serves as a true depiction of the story. The story has a really awesome beginning with how Maggie sums up her life with Jake, with her own unique brand of commentary in her thoughts, while hiding under a bed in a disgusting hotel room. I really liked the way that Maggie seemed to be actually speaking to me, the reader, and how she questioned herself on what she would do when Jake walked into the room. It really allowed me to get into her head and understand her as a character. I really enjoyed reading All You Need is Love by Julie Hodgson!
