  <description><![CDATA[Elle Wood, University of Southern California sorority president and sociopolitical jewelry design major, is blonde, spoiled, creative and desperately in love with her college sweetheart, Warner Huntingdon III. But when Warner announces he's off to Stanford Law School, and that while there he aims to find a girl 'more serious' than Elle to be his wife, Elle and Underdog, her pet Bichon Frise, hatch a plan to follow him so that he will marry her like he's supposed to do. Elle's Stanford misadventures are distinctly unpromising from the outset, and it seems that the one place where blondes definitely don't have more fun is law school. But then she's made an intern on the Murder of Malibu case, defending one-time fitness queen and apricot blonde Brooke Vandermark from the charge of murdering her billionaire husband. In a courtroom triumph, Elle vindicates Brooke and all who are blonde at heart with a tip any Cosmo girl should know.]]></description>

    <![CDATA[Elle Wood, University of Southern California sorority president and sociopolitical jewelry design major, is blonde, spoiled, creative and desperately in love with her college sweetheart, Warner Huntingdon III. But when Warner announces he's off to Stanford Law School, and that while there he aims to find a girl 'more serious' than Elle to be his wife, Elle and Underdog, her pet Bichon Frise, hatch a plan to follow him so that he will marry her like he's supposed to do. Elle's Stanford misadventures are distinctly unpromising from the outset, and it seems that the one place where blondes definitely don't have more fun is law school. But then she's made an intern on the Murder of Malibu case, defending one-time fitness queen and apricot blonde Brooke Vandermark from the charge of murdering her billionaire husband. In a courtroom triumph, Elle vindicates Brooke and all who are blonde at heart with a tip any Cosmo girl should know.]]>

    <![CDATA[Elle Wood, University of Southern California sorority president and sociopolitical jewelry design major, is blonde, spoiled, creative and desperately in love with her college sweetheart, Warner Huntingdon III. But when Warner announces he's off to Stanford Law School, and that while there he aims to find a girl 'more serious' than Elle to be his wife, Elle and Underdog, her pet Bichon Frise, hatch a plan to follow him so that he will marry her like he's supposed to do. Elle's Stanford misadventures are distinctly unpromising from the outset, and it seems that the one place where blondes definitely don't have more fun is law school. But then she's made an intern on the Murder of Malibu case, defending one-time fitness queen and apricot blonde Brooke Vandermark from the charge of murdering her billionaire husband. In a courtroom triumph, Elle vindicates Brooke and all who are blonde at heart with a tip any Cosmo girl should know.]]>

    <body><![CDATA[In some ways I enjoyed this book more than the movie.  We saw more of Elle's growth and her struggle to prove herself.  We could also see how law school society was so &quot;anti-blonde.&quot;  But the writing in this book was ho-hum.  The prose was static and flat.  It could have been so much bette...]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[Here's a rare instance where I like the movie better than the book. <br/>Elle is much more active in the movie while in the book she seems more laid back, reading Vogue in classes but still manages to pass the class whereas in the movie she relishes in beating out Warren's arguments in class. <br/>...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/14958431">more...</a>]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[This was not good. I have a real soft spot for the movie and liked it so much better. Reese Witherspoon gave Elle a certain depth that the book-character lacks. <br/>Additionally, the other characters are painfully simple and exaggerated. Just not what I was hoping for. ]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[This book is cute. It's a good distraction if you need something to read. I would recommend reading it, but don't expect something deep (obviously). All the legal jargon does eventually get tiresome, but overall it is a good book.]]></body>
