Description

|Congratulations—You just won $22 million in the Lottery! So what happens next?
In Heather McElhatton's second do-over novel, Million Little Mistakes, you win $22 million in the lottery. Given the chance to live like a millionaire, you could realize all your dreams or learn that money only causes more problems. It all depends on the choices you make . . .
Should you keep your day job? Stay in your relationship? Save an endangered species? Have a debauched weekend on Sex Island? Buy an aristocrat's life on eBay or pay off all your family's debt? Should you climb Mount Everest, trek the remote jungles of China, book passage on a luxury cruise, or become an infamous Voodoo priestess? Is your destiny to become a philanthropist, a pharmaceutical tycoon, a happy homemaker, or a burlesque stripper? Be careful. Your fortune could be lost in a Ponzi scheme; your wildest fantasy may bring you total bliss or lead you to a run-in with extortionists who try to kill you.
There are hundreds of possible adventures sown inside Million Little Mistakes. Some lives end fabulously while others in utter disaster, so choose wisely. You can buy a lot with $22 million, but can you buy a happy ending?
|“McElhatton brings a wild and risqué tone to Pretty Little Mistakes.” - Lisa Ko, author of The Leavers
“A hilarious, cautionary tale.” - People
“Cleverly conceived.” - Vanity Fair
“Addictive!” - Redbook Magazine
“McElhatton has an uncensored mind and mouth.” - Minneapolis Star Tribune
“The book is about subverting the fairy-tale expectations of the genre, smashing some tired and overly familiar tropes on the way to a dark and deflating (though satisfying) ending.” - The Onion
“McElhatton’s debut novel is chicklit-meets-noir where the choices are tougher, the stakes higher, and the characters sexier and far more disturbed….Solid, addictively dark prose leads readers to one of 150 different outcomes.” - Curve magazine
