(  )smooney1202 | May 29, 2009 |   The perfect pick-me-up after a long day, Kinsella's lighthearted renderings had me laughing for hours. Also has a very good audio. (  )stephiewonder | Apr 30, 2009 | 1  From the author of shopaholic series comes another lighthearted, hilarious chick-lit book. I can't stop laughing when I started reading this book. A story of a young woman with a huge kind heart, an amazing spirit with secrets to keep...until she spills them all to a handsome stranger next to her on a plane during a turbulent plane ride. Thinking that she won't be seeing him afterwards if they do ever survived this flight. But by monday morning, she's suddenly come in face-to-face with the stranger from the plane who ended up to be as the company's CEO where she's working at! Things just couldn't possibly get worse! A highly recommended book to read, familiar characters to relate to. Kate Hudson will star in the movie, film rights belonging to Paramount Films. ( )dhelicious | Apr 23, 2009 | This is just a fantastically funny and wonderful book. I loved her shopaholic series but this is her masterpiece (at least so far). If you love romantic comedy, chick lit- trust me you will adore this. ( )Chicorykey | Apr 11, 2009 | This book is not well written, but it is definitely better then Kinsella's "Remember Me." The main character is more of a human being. Emma is lovable and funny. She is somewhat of a compulsive liar but it is portrayed in a funny way. She doesn't lie in a malicious way, she lies so that she doesn't hurt others. She meets a man on a plane who she unfortunately spills her life to and runs into later on. This is a comedic story line and does not disappoint. The character is easier to relate to then Kinsella's other characters but is still the same style of writing. It is an easy read but nothing enlightening. If you are looking for a complex book this one is absolutely not the book for you.

Amazon.com Product Description (ISBN 0385338082, Paperback)With the same wicked humor, buoyant charm, and optimism that have made her Shopaholic novels beloved international bestsellers, Sophie Kinsella delivers a hilarious new novel and an unforgettable new character. Meet Emma Corrigan, a young woman with a huge heart, an irrepressible spirit, and a few little secrets:Secrets from her mother: I lost my virginity in the spare bedroom with Danny Nussbaum while Mum and Dad were downstairs watching Ben-Hur. Sammy the goldfish in my parents’ kitchen is not the same goldfish that Mum gave me to look after when she and Dad were in Egypt. Secrets from her boyfriend: I weigh one hundred and twenty-eight pounds. Not one eighteen, like Connor thinks. I’ve always thought Connor looks a bit like Ken. As in Barbie and Ken. From her colleagues: When Artemis really annoys me, I feed her plant orange juice. (Which is pretty much every day.) It was me who jammed the copier that time. In fact, all the times. Secrets she wouldn’t share with anyone in the world: My G-string is hurting me. I have no idea what NATO stands for. Or even what it is. Until she spills them all to a handsome stranger on a plane. At least, she thought he was a stranger. But come Monday morning, Emma’s office is abuzz about the arrival of Jack Harper, the company’s elusive CEO. Suddenly Emma is face-to-face with the stranger from the plane, a man who knows every single humiliating detail about her. Things couldn’t possibly get worse—Until they do. From the Hardcover edition. (retrieved from Amazon Fri, 24 Apr 2009 07:57:53 -0400) The first test round has been closed. Visit the Open Shelves Classification group for details. |
