Loading... Sushi for Beginnersby Marian Keyes
 SpicyCat | May 12, 2013 |  It was funny and clever and a great story, but there was too much sex in it for me. (  ) JessieP73 | Apr 6, 2013 | Read this while visiting relatives in Canada when I should have been reading homework. This was my first Marian Keyes and I was pleased that I didn't figure out the entire plot right away. Not as good as Jennifer Weiner but better than a lot of the other stuff out there. ( ) JenJ. | Mar 31, 2013 | Started reading Marian Keyes when I returned from Ireland in the summer of 2004. I bought a book of short stories from Irish writers, and Marian Keyes was one of them. I went to see which writers we had at our library, and I found Marian Keyes had several. I tried to read them in order and ended up liking them -- funny, character development -- that I bought a few that I've read and reread, including this one. The women are easy to relate to and the men are minor Prince Charmings. (  ) carka | Jul 25, 2010 | probably my favourite of her novels - probably the only time i 'fell in love' with a book character. naff huh? (  ) scuzzy | Jul 5, 2010 | no reviews | add a review

Lisa Edwards
This Prada-wearing magazine editor thinks her life is over when her "fabulous" new job turns out to be a deportation to Dublin to launch Colleen magazine. The only saving grace is that her friends aren't there to witness her downward spiral. Might her new boss, the disheveled and moody Jack Devine, save her from a fate worse than hell?
Ashling Kennedy
Ashling, Colleen's assistant editor, is an award-winning worrier, increasingly aware that something fundamental is missing from her life -- apart from a boyfriend and a waistline.
Clodagh "Princess" Kelly
Ashling's best friend, Clodagh, lives the domestic dream in a suburban castle. So why, lately, has she had the recurring urge to kiss a frog -- or sleep with a frog, if truth be told? As these three women search for love, success, and happiness, they will discover that if you let things simmer under the surface for too long, sooner or later they'll boil over.
Discover the Keyes to a Great Read!

Wikipedia in English
Marian Keyes is the perfect get away material, she does have some moral messages and often a twist or two in the telling and not all her characters are nice (in fact two out of the three in this book are quite unpleasant). I think of her books like a drink or two in an Irish bar, not challenging, but very pleasant way to while away a few hours. Unlike some 'chick lit' it doesn't talk don to you and is not all about the sex. (
