Full review up on my blog Chick Lit = The new Black!
What I liked about She, Myself & I:
This book is a good summer read. In fact, I read it over 4th of July weekend down by the river. Also, I liked how in each section you got the point of view from each sister. Even though you are reading it through their eyes and minds you still get to learn more about the pervious sisters’ story.
There are a lot of similarities between the Cassel sisters and my own family…

To be honest, I tried this book because I could not find my usual authors; but boy was I pleasantly surprised! She, Myself & I is such a good easy read, and very tough to put down. I am not sure my grades will thank me for it.
Paige, Sophie and Mickey are so lovable really, even if the middle sister came across as a whiny wife and sister. I loved the first section on Paige most, and I think that was what really kept me reading: her character, her bossy yet loving side, her insecurities More...

Truth be told, I have never read anything ‘fluffy’ before, so I was quite intrigue.
The book centered on not only ONE character but THREE! sisters going through life at a point of post-divorce from a gay husband (Paige), post-pregnancy and building a new career (Sophie) and dilemma on changing of career direction (Mickey). These, on top of the news that their long divorced parents, who cannot see face to face, are dating each other and may decide to tie the knot again!

After falling in love with Gaskell's style in Testing Kate, I had to rush out and check out some more of her books. Thankfully, my first experience with Gaskell's work wasn't a fluke, for this was another fun, fast read. A book about three sisters, told in three parts, from each sister's perspective. Very hard to put down at times. Cute!

Liked this book for the many, many references to real life stuff that I always think, but rarely see reflected in books. Like this one,which I thought was hysterical:
"I slipped out of bed and padded to the bathroom. I had to pee and my breath was foul. I've never understood how in movies couples wake up and stare dreamily at each other first thing in the morning, falling into one another's arms before they use the bathroom or gargle mouthwash. Was I the only person who woke More...

I really enjoyed this one. Told from three different perspectives, you still get to see what is happening in everyone's lives. Three very different stages in life - dating, marriage, children - but all with common themes of fear, loneliness, regret, joy and desire. Great read.

Rediscovered this author at the library. I enjoy her writing style. Three sisters narrate this book in three sections. Quirky family drama with a happy ending. Nice and lite for summer reading.

Very enjoyable. This is the first book by this author that I had the pleasure to read and can honestly say that I enjoyed it so much that I've since gone on to read all of her other books.

Such a fun book. It's an easy read for one of those days that you just don't want to think to much but want to be entertained in a intellegent way.

Interesting format - instead of a novel, it's more like three overlapping short stories. I, personally, liked the first one the best, with the oldest sister.
Set in Austin, Texas, if you're interested in that sort of thing.

Cute book with 3 sections each focusing on one of the sisters. It seemed a little unfinished, but was fine chick lit.

Fun, happy chick lit with happy endings all around which makes me happy.

Chick lit. A snipet of time in the lives of three sisters, told sequentially in each of the sister's voices.

I liked this book ... It was fun reading from each sisters perspective ... A little predictable at times but it made me smile quite a bit! :)

An enjoyable story about three sisters all at different points in their lives, but there's nothing that really makes it stand apart from others in this genre.

i really enjoyed it- fun chick lit from the point of view of three difference sisters. they're all a little neurotic in their own ways but aren't we all?

This book was an easy and enjoyable read. The three sisters were interesting characters and the way their lives all inter connected was fun.

Cute chick lit, divided into 3 sections each told from the perspective of one of 3 sisters. 3.5 stars.

I especially liked during the mom's wedding when the sisters make fun of the guests. So real!

I liked this book, but not as much as Whitney Gaskell's other book, "Mommy Tracked."

Story of three sisters--fairly predictable, but easy reading nonetheless.
