Well that was pretty much read-it-all-in-one go Chick Lit perfection! Super fun. It's Sex and the City if it was set in London, if Carrie was more Samantha-ish and if she ended up with Aidan ( )

The author "talks" to the reader. ( )

Well I did not write much about this book but I at least know if I liked it or not.

Nice read. Not her best. But I liked it. Read this 15/16 June 2006

(Those were the days when I read a book in a day or 2) ( )

Not the best Jane Green but humourous in parts. Pretty easy to follow. The ending wasn't the best. ( )

I heard such great things about Jane Green’s books but I just wasn’t impressed with this one. For the first half or so there was just too much swearing for my taste and a little too much details during the sex scenes. Don’t get me wrong I love romance stories even though I hate the ones with the graphic love scenes but I really did not expect so much in a chick lit book.

I think the deal breaker for me was I just did not like the main character Tasha and she never grew on me. I know the book is supposed to be how Tasha starts off as this relationship wreck and kind of superficial and then matures into a healthy relationship and self outlook but her progression did not make me like her even as she started to change. I was hoping for something like Emily Giffin’s, Something Blue, in which you think the main character is a b*tch but then you grow to like her and wanted her to get the fairy tale ending. Even at the end Tasha just got on my nerves and I was not rooting for a happy ending for her because I felt she did not deserve it and the guy could do better.
