Must think happy thoughts. Julie Andrews dancing. Cadbury's chocolate Easter eggs. But no amount of positive thinking changes the fact that Jeremy--the man of my dreams, the man I would marry, the man who should spend his whole life worshipping me and lavishing me with kisses--went to Thailand to find himself. Obviously I'm not as cute and witty as I thought I was, since while I've been sitting around every weekend, he's been sleeping with half of Thailand. And then he found Someone Else. That someone not being me. I have been pathetic. But now I will date. I will become the queen of dating. I will forget all about him. Single in Boston, that's me. But not for long...!… (more)

Did NOT like this book but it was given as a gift, so I read it. ( )

Sarah Mlynowski is a wonderful writer. I found this book to be very well-written and very easy to understand. However, the main character drove me crazy and is the reason for my 3 star rating. The entire time I was reading the book, I wanted to yell at the main character to grow up and stop revolving her life around men and instead to make herself happy rather than trying to find happiness in others.

When Jackie’s boyfriend leaves for Thailand (after she has packed up in order to follow him to Boston!) to “find himself”, then she hears from him that he’s found a new girlfriend, Jackie is devastated and doesn’t quite know what to do. With one of the very few girlfriends she has (she only has two, and one is in New York), she decides to get all dolled up and go out and find someone new.

This was fun! I wasn’t crazy about Jackie, herself, but parts of the story were quite amusing and I laughed out loud! Her job was entertaining (she’s a copy editor for a romance publisher). I don’t read a lot of chick lit, but I quite enjoy it when I do. This was a quick read and I do like this author. I really liked the ending. ( )

I've got three twenty-something daughters--and this book mirrored some of their experiences. I loved the parts where the heroine was reading romance books. Those were funny. ( )
