Delightful Debut Novel

In Perfectly Arranged by Liana George, the heroine, Nicki Mayfield, has a gift for simplifying belongings à la Marie Kondo, organizational superstar. Hired by a bristly socialite who owns more shoes than Imelda Marcos, Nicki considers which organizational method to use Shoe type? Shoe purpose? Or color gradients?

I thought this book would focus on the eccentricities of the rich who needed their super-abundant belongings organized. Instead, the narrative crosses the Pacific and focuses on Chinese orphans. Specifically, those with congenital heart defects who might not live without expensive corrective surgery. I loved this entertaining but delightful book and look forward to the others coming in this series. ~ Delores E. Topliff
