Reviews

First Kinsella Read

"For the most part I was hooked on the story line & wanted to keep reading but a few areas I found slower & a bit weird for the story line. I could totally relate to Emma & her thinking. I would recommend this book if you are looking for humor & light romance. I'd like to read another Kinsella!"

KandaceB (3/5)

Loved it

"Read it !! I couldn't put it down. I laughed omg . . . . really nice read It's a must . . . my first Sophie kinsella"

Marcy (5/5)

Cheesy

"I honestly don't understand the hype with Sohpie Kinsella books. The books I've read by her aren't that much different from other chick-lit books. This one in particular was incredibly cheesy, especially the end where the main character says something along the lines of, ""When he asks me what I'm thinking about, I say nothing, but in reality I'm naming our future children. "" Is that supposed to be romantic???"

Amanda (2/5)

ok

"I agree with the other reviews, it's a good book if you are looking for something super light and fast to read. The characters seem to be really similar to every other Kinsella book though. . ."
