Thanks for a good book, Debbie Carbin - By: Love Books, 21 Oct 2008 
I nearly gave up on this book after the first chapter because (LITTLE SPOILER COMING) I couldn't see how any woman could continue to fancy a man who did press ups after making love, I mean PLEASE! But I kept going & reallly enjoyed it. The quirky, conversational style make it an easy read, I found the heroine very endearing indeed, & the way she grew up over the course of the book was very well described. The male characters are a bit two-dimensional but so what, this isn't pretending to be heavy literature, it's a great easy, enjoyable, entertaining read.
Can't put it down - By: Karen Peed, 14 Oct 2008 
Still one of my favourite books to date! I couldn't put it down. So true to life & cleverly written. We always know something the character doesn't & it's real exciting stuff waiting for the story to unfold. For once the good guy wins. That's the way it should be!
Watch out Bridget! - By: K. S. Hutchence, 08 Oct 2008 Chick lit? No thanks, not for me! But I was persuaded by a friend this would be worth making a change from my usual non-fiction reading, & how right she was! The author has a refreshingly new & vibrant writing style which grasps the imagination by the throat & defies the reader to put the book down. I'm SO glad I read this book; it's firmly on my present list for Christmas. And if they don't make the film soon it will be a wonderful opportunity lost as it simply outdoes Bridget Jones (which, as a bloke, I confess to enjoying hugely)by miles.
from taking an instant dislike to Rachel,i began to enjoy the book - By: CJ Price, 04 Oct 2008 this book was a grower was on me. having started reading the first chapter i thought the main character Rachel was so self obsessed & completely in love with herself & her "perfect" life. having got over the instant dislike to the character i began to enjoy the book, & half way through could not put it down! I reallly enjoyed it, especiallly the last chapter of tragedy & then joy! n the last line in the book is great {something my mother would do!}
A brilliant read. - By: Suse H, 03 Oct 2008 I'm not reallly a chick-lit type, more a thriller/detective novel fan, but I've recently met the (very lovely) author a few times & - if I'm honest - felt I ought to read her book. Well alll I can say is, thank God I met her! It's just such a lovely, funny book. I started off reallly detesting Rachel but as she learned some humility & gained maturity, I started to warm to her. So many interesting little twists & turns & a deep understanding of human relationships. Particularly when I reached the second half of the book I had to make sure I didn't start reading before work or I wouldn't have got anything done. I'll be first in the queue for her next book!
