This wasn't bad - it passed the time on the trains anyway - but it was really long - especially for chicklit. Had I been the editor, I would have suggested some pretty significant cuts. There's a decent twist at the end which makes the last ~60 pages fairly interesting, but getting there just seems to take forever.

I'm reading this currently and it reminds me a lot of the early Jilly Cooper novels like Imogen, Octavia et al. Story rolls along and you don't need to concentrate much!

It's a good book, really liked the ending.
The difficulty was to get trough the first chapters, but once you get to the middle of the book it really starts to fascinate you.

Excellently written! When I read this book I was instantly hooked. It depicts how a girl needs to kiss the wrong frogs in order to find the right one!

because you didn't have to force yourself to keep reading.

Finally, I finished the book! 3/4 of the book was boring. the last 100 pages where suprisingly good. however, i'm not reading this anymore. To much the feeling of 'castle novel' in it.

I couldn't get past page 10, banal, vapid and incredibly shallow. Even here, with no TV, I have better things to do with my time.

Overall a decent chicklit. The twist in the end makes up for the unnecessary stretch in between...
