Thank fuck for Lindsey Kelk, is all I can say! I'd been looking for some enjoyable, escapist reading for a while, but all the chicklit novels I'd tried had conjured up a world that seemed completely foreign to me. Stuck between a sea of characters allegedly my age who spoke and behaved more like my grandmother, or ditzy 'girls about town' whose fondness for shopping/relationship/other-girlie-stereotype hijinks read like undiagnosed mental illness...

I'd been looking for some enjoyable, escapist reading for a while, but all the chicklit novels I'd tried had conjured up a world that seemed completely foreign to me. Stuck between a sea of characters allegedly my age who spoke and behaved more like my grandmother, or ditzy 'girls about town' whose fondness for shopping/relationship/other-girlie-stereotype hijinks read like undiagnosed mental illness... Ugh! Give me a break. (How long is it til the next Marian Keyes novel?)

I picked up I Heart Vegas for the unoriginal reason that I'm going to Vegas soon. The cover art is dreadful and the blurb is generic in the extreme. Do not be fooled. Although this is the fourth book of Angela Clark's shenanigans, it could easily be read as a standalone (or, like me, you could put the other three on hold at the library as soon as you realize what you're dealing with).

Angie is a British girl in New York who is my hitherto unknown best friend. Kelk's writing is fresh and (excuse the cliche) laugh out loud funny, and the dialogue is perfect for the mid-20s market; for once, I actually felt like I was reading banter that my friends and I would blather...probably drunkenly. The overall effect is breezy but not dumb, with a protagonist you root for and whose flaws don't render her as someone you'd edge away from in a crowded department store (Bloomwood, I'm looking at you, you fucking menace).

The friends, family, and especially the love interest are all well fleshed out, with Alex actually being a bit of a genuine heart throb who isn't just fulfilling the Mr. Darcy-shaped gap of many chicklit paramores. The plot ticked all my boxes for location porn, some unexpectedly contemporary pop culture jokes and references, a good selection of girls getting gussied up scenes, great shoes, a fair bit of drunkenness and debauchery, the odd shag, and some amusing - but not credulity stretching - plot twists.

I know I'm gushing a bit, but fuck it, this is my entirely subjective goodreads review, and this reviewer was unexpectedly delighted by Ms. Kelk.(less)

Following I Heart Paris, the next book in the series starts with Angela waiting in her new Brooklyn home, for Alex to arrive back after touring with his band. Soon after, she discovers her visa is being revoked and she faces deportation. I'm kind of getting tired of Angela being so stupid and everything going so drastically wrong for her, but I guess that's what keeps the series going. Jenny comes up with a plan- for Angela to get Alex to marry her for a visa... but Angela's not so sure.

These books are, by far, my favourite series. I have never been so committed to a series of books, aha!

Every reader is looking for that happy, fairy tale ending and this book truly delivered!

It still pisses me off that Angela doesn't communicate with Alex about what's going on. I mean, if I was given a deportation notice, I wouldn't shut up about it! And I certainly wouldn't keep it from the love of my life.

But, the whole deportation secrecy made for some interesting fight scenes with Alex later, which proved very entertaining.

I think what I love most about this book series (this book, in particular) is that you can really see just how much Alex loves Angela, despite all her craziness.
I can totally identify with Angela's character too. She has bad hair days, and swings between feeling HOT and feeling fat. She drinks too much, is insecure about if the man she loves really loves her back, and sleeps in till noon. I would so do that if my job was blogging and I didn't have kids. I think most women can identify with this!

And its made me want friends like Jenny and James Jacobs. WHY? Even I'm not totally sure. But something in the rude way they talk to Angie makes me laugh!

Angela is sort of my hero. I can live vicariously through her, what with my dreams of marrying the love of my life (okay, can check that one off the list, but moving on...) living in New York, partying in Las Vegas (I SO want to do this, but married a guy that got partying out of his system a long time ago and I just don't know if I could have as much fun without him there), writing as a career (my DREAM job!), having gorgeous designer clothes given her to on loan (either from friends or personal shoppers. Now come on... this is probably the more unrealistic thing in the book, but I still can't help drooling).

She gets herself into impossibly funny situations (a certain PVC dominatrix outfit comes to mind), and has a nasty habit of resorting to physical violence when she's angry. Well, given the situations she has been in (like sabotaged careers) would probably make me act out too.

I love these characters, I hope Ms. Kelk continues the I Heart series for a long time! Or at least continues writing SOMETHING so I can enjoy her completely awesome writing style.

I adore Lindsey Kelk’s novels and I Heart Vegas is no exception. In fact, it might even have vaulted into my favourite of the I Heart Series. Full of Vegas drama in typical Angela style, I laughed out loud and even shed a few tears with this one right along with Angela’s ups and downs.

Angela Clark is back with all her antics, insecurities and amusing decisions. For some reason, her plight in I Heart Vegas felt the most real to me - perhaps why I connected with this novel the most. I could understand the reasons why she didn’t want to bring up the subject with Alex and why she didn’t want the outcome her friends were pushing on her, although I could see their point too. I also loved the revisit to Vegas, which I’ve travelled to once before and enjoyed reliving it, albeit not quite at the same intoxicated pace and emotional duress that Angela explored it from, but I loved reading about her adventures there.

Angela’s internal dialogue and predicaments are as amusing as ever. I’ve said it my last two reviews of Kelk's I Heart series before, but I’ll repeat in case you haven’t *gasp* read them yet – I love that in these novels the heroine already has a boyfriend and isn’t just searching for love but instead they explores their relationship. There are few novels like this – Many are either; single and searching, boyfriend pre breakup or married and managing.

I loved the unpredictability of I Heart Vegas. Kelk dragged it out mercilessly and I wasn’t quite sure how the end of would play out even though I thought I did from the beginning. Kelk convinced me that what I had anticipated wasn’t going to occur after all and with already knowing the title of the next novel, I was bamboozled right up until the end about which way things were going to go both with her life and love.

I suspect this novel would stand alone well if you didn’t want to read all the novels in the series, but why would you want to do that? And if you’re already an Angela fan, you definitely won’t be disappointed! I can’t wait for the next one in the series now! Bring on London ! And I only have to wait a few more months! SQUEE!(less)

The I Heart series started with I Heart New York, followed by I Heart Hollywood and then I Heart Paris. Her latest release I Heart Vegas features Angel and her pals as she seems to get herself in a pickle.

The first I Heart Book I read I enjoyed but wasn't overly in love with. Fast forward to today, the day I completed I Heart Vegas and you will find a woman that is slightly in love with Angela Clarke, and wants her very own Angela for Christmas!!!

For people who haven't read previous books in the series, it doesn't matter you could still pick this book up and read it no worries. But if like me you want to get to know the characters and the story behind Angela ending up in New York then start at the beginning of the series.

By this point in Angela's life she is living in New York with her boyfriend Alex and things are going swimmingly. There is however one sticking point, and a rather major one at that. Angela's visa has expired and as she's no longer working it's a bit of a problem. The first few chapters of the book were amusing but not rip roaringly funny, but it was fun to see Angela get herself into all sorts of trouble (as usual) while she tries desperately to appear as if everything is okay to Alex. When her friend Jenny decides that a weekend trip to Vegas is the way to cheer them up, she has no idea what will end up happening.

At this point in the book the humour goes from amusing, to cringe-worthy embarrassment but laugh out loud funny. Angela's friend Jenny is a rude, brash and very outgoing sort of girl and the two of them together get themselves into some very awkward situations. The theme behinds the whole story makes for great reading and although Angela is a hopeless case you can't help wishing that everything works out okay for her.

By the last part of the book I literally couldn't put it down and just had to go right through to the end. This sort of read is classic chick lit. The mix of two girls on a crazy weekend in Vegas, especially with the stunts they manage to pull off as well as the romance behind the story made for a fabulous read and possibly the best in the I Heart series.

The only downside is that I have to wait impatiently for the next instalment some time next year entitled I Heart London.

If you’ve never read the I Heart… series before it follows the life of Angela Clark, with her rockstar boyfriend (Alex) and outrageous best friend Jenny Lopez (no, not that Jenny Lopez). As I’ve read the other three books I had a feeling that I knew what was going to happen in this book. For the Angela and Alex storyline I was right, it doesn’t bother me that the stories are predictable… The thing that bothers me is one Miss Angela. With Chick-Lit books sometimes there isn’t a strong female character and this is one where she isn’t strong at all.

She’s very whiny and doesn’t seem to appreciate what she’s got. I understand that everyone has every right to complain when they’ve been told their visa has expired and they have 30 days otherwise she’ll be kicked out and back to England (and her mother). What I don’t understand is why you don’t talk to your boyfriend about it who wants to help. Yes, she told him the basics but not the most important idea that was put forward to her - marrying him. As usual he had to find out by accident, causing a huge row. I love the books but I don’t love her. Whenever things go wrong with Alex she always runs away, she always gets bullied into things by her friends too. This girl really needs a backbone (although she does miraculously gain one when she punches an old foe in the face). I don’t think this book was helped by the fact I read it not long after The Hunger Games so I’m used to seeing a strong female character who isn’t swain.

I liked the plot and I liked the going’s on in Vegas, there were a few Hangover cliches and references which was expected. I would have just liked for the characters to be more likeable. As the series is going on I’m finding there’s less characters that I enjoy. In this book there was only two (maximum of four) that I really liked. With this trend I’m a little worried about how the next book is going to be. It won’t stop me from reading it however as I want to find out what will happen between Angela and Alex. I also want to find out if any of the twists with Jenny will be brought back up in the next book and see where they go.

For people that haven’t read the series this can be a good stand alone book, however there are references to things that have happened in the other books which may not be understood (I must admit, sometimes I completely forgot myself as it’s been a while since the last book). There were a few funny moments and the books tell it like it is which is what a few people will enjoy. The series are good books if you want something to pass the time however, be warned, the main character can drive you up the wall!(less)

The adventures of Angela carry on in I Heart Vegas with Angela getting a letter in the post saying if she doesn't get a US visa in the next 40 days she will be sent back to London, and that doesn't give her a Christmas extension! In typical Angela fashion, she buries her head in the sand, telling people what they want to hear especially Alex her boyfriend that she lives with, that everything will be fine and she'll sort it out. After sending out lots of proposals to other publishing types, getting rejection letters and visiting Laurence the Lawyer just for him to tell her she sucks, Angela starts to feel a little down and worried what she can do. Enter Jenny Lopez, Angela's best friend to whisk her off to Vegas for the weekend.
Despite her problems Angela gets excited about her weekend away, when Erin pulls out, Jenny's new flat mate and model Sadie joins in, much to Angela's dismay. On top of this Angela finds out Jeff, Jenny's ex boyfriend and one time love of her life will also be going to Vegas - on his bachelor party and Alex has been asked to tag along.
Angela is having a good time in Vegas, but sometimes thinking about her Visa business gets her down, when Jenny suggests she just gets Alex to marry her, surely she couldn't do that, could she?

I love Angela and her adventures, I love Jenny Lopez, she is the best friend anyone would want to have, I love Angela and Alex together, they are great and most of all I love Lindsey Kelk's writing, it flows off the page, so easy to read, she makes the characters relatable, even when they are in situations you would never be in, such as in Vegas.
I loved the storyline, following on from the previous book, Angela struggling to find a job and therefore when her US visa runs out, it makes it difficult to apply for a new one. I can relate to Angela through this book as I myself am looking for a job and finding it difficult so I felt like we were going through similar stuff.
As soon as Jenny mentioned Vegas I knew they would get up to some wild and weird stuff, Erin has to pull out after discovering she was pregnant, yay! so in stepped Jenny's new flat mate Sadie, uber model and bitch.
I couldn't believe Jenny organised the trip so that they were there the same time as Jeff, even though she was with Sigge, but that meant Alex got to go along and I was glad we might see more Angela and Alex together in Vegas.
I loved all the stuff they got up to in Vegas, the Bellagio? Fountains was amazing I could picture Angela and Jenny both falling in and looking like tits, another funny moment with Angela in the mens toilets at a club and what do you know, James Jacobs and a random man happen to just fall into her lap!
When Jenny suggested that Angela ask Alex to marry her for a visa, I thought it was predictable that someone might say that, and Angela was totally against it, but the it kept cropping up into her mind, I knew she was going to mention it at some point, but when they are taking a boat ride she blurts it out and rambles on how marriage isn't that big of a deal and it's just a piece of paper, basically she's saying what she thinks he wants to hear and Alex is stunned and doesn't say anything for a while, and I'm thinking, oh god she's just fucked it up and probably scared him away, but he turns around and says ok then. I was surprised, maybe he does want to marry Angela then, but he starts to go weird and turns into Angela basically everything he's thinking blurts out, echoing what Angela has said, marriage doesn't mean anything, Jeff isn't taking it seriously so yeah. Much to Angela's dismay she wanted him to want to marry her as well.
He drags her to a chapel and says lets get it out the way, Angela is just stunned at this point and realises she doesn't want this, just as she is about to tell him who stumbles out of the chapel? Sadie and someone they met along the way Ben, but she isn't the one that's just got married, she was the bridesmaid. Then out pops Jenny and Jeff!! I couldn't believe that, they both were drunk and got married enough though Jeff is engaged to someone else and Jenny has a boyfriend!
Alex decides he needs time alone and to think and walks off, I was devastated as was Angela.
I couldn't believe how many arguments they had over Jenny and Jeff, it was a little silly really but Angela wanted to stick up for her friend but it seemed like it was going to cost her, her relationship with Alex, he decides to stay in Vegas another night (sob) and they'll talk when he gets back.
He arrives back and again an argument starts about Jenny and Jeff, she leaves to stay at Jenny's thinking Alex will call when he's ready but 3 days pass by and nothing (sob).
Whilst away in Vegas Angela had an idea to turn her visa problems around, come up with her own magazine with the help of her friends who were well connected, everyone is on board and hope it will work.
Whilst ice skating on Christmas eve, Angela is still upset Alex hasn't rang, it's been a while, she falls on her arse, typical Angela and her friends help her to a bench. Alex appears (yay) and helps her untie her ice skates whilst talking things through, he apologises for everything he's said and gets down on his knees to help her further, he asks her to come home, but that's not all, he pulls out a tiny black box and this is where I got excited, I was soo happy and thrilled! He asks her to marry him, saying he got the ring back in Japan (which was towards the start of the book), I couldn't believe he had it that long, obviously he loved her and wanted to be with her. He probably freaked out about the marriage thing when she asked because he was already planning it and she made out she wasn't bothered.
I was so so happy with this ending and it leaves possible doors open such as the Jenny stuff, what will happen with her, Jeff and Sigge, also the magazine with it go through?
I can't wait for I Heart London, but the title does beg the question, did Angela sort out her visa?(less)

Oh Angela. I have such a love/hate relationship with the main character in this series - as I think a lot of people do. After being infuriated in the last two books, I was hesitant to read this one, but I have this need to know where the series is going.

The book was better than others, but still not the best. I'm not sure if I just forgot the secondary characters in Jenny's life from other books, or if they were just thrown into this book in the haphazard way that I felt they were. I spent the...more

Lindsey Kelk’s books have quickly become my guilty pleasures, her books just like Meg Cabot’s and Sophie Kinsella’s I know I can turn to when I need a quick pick me up; they easily bring a smile to my face and they’re the perfect comfort reads. I’ve been glued to Angela’s adventures ever since she ran away from London 18 months ago in I Heart New York. Each time I’m about to start a new book there’s always a nagging feeling in the pit of my stomach worried about what she will get up to this time...more

As with the other books in the "I Heart" series, this book doesn't take itself too seriously, and that makes it all the more enjoyable. Unbelievable things happen but that just adds to the fun. It is chick lit aimed at people in their teens, twenties and thirties, with references to things like fashion designers and tv shows that young people like and know.

An easy read and entertaining read. I am looking forward to reading I Heart London when it is released.

I really love Angela and Alex as a couple, sometimes I find Angela's actions and decisions frustrating but I gues that is because I am a more of a take action kind of person and I would not sit around and wait for the worst to happen. Also I believe about talking about things and not running away from them, however this story is perfect I love the way it ended but I dont for a minute believe that Jenny and Jeff's story is finished as yet. I am looking forward to I heart London because I think th...more

The reason why I picked this up from the library was because of the very first I heart New York novel. While the latter was an excellent read, this just doesn't live up to it. At best, it's bland because of the typical getting hitched at Vegas, the usual concentration on looks, and the ending was predictable.

All i can say that this is the 4th book i have read by Lindsey Kelk and i wasn't dissapointed. I will say one thing about Lindsey Kelk is she knows how to keep her readers glued to her books.

I heart Vegas is the fourth book from the I heart series and so far i really am enjoying them. The books are very easy to read and very easy to follow.

Out of all 4 books this is my favourite. Angela is still very happy with boyfriend Alex but a letter from INS is putting strain on there realationship as Ang...more
