Liked it, simple read, but just as one other reviewer said, sometimes there was too much description not enough dialogue and I found myself skipping towards the end (especially on new character intros). I could relate to Sophie in many ways.

Melissa rated a book 4 of 5 stars Bitter is the New Black by Jen Lancaster read in April, 2011	Rate this book Clear rating 1 of 5 stars 2 of 5 stars 3 of 5 stars 4 of 5 stars 5 of 5 stars
