It is supposed to be a 5-star rating but hell, I really want them to get together!!!!more review about this book will be posted later after I could sum up all the twisted things and feelings I feel about this book right now.Cheers!Edited version:Now where was I?I found this book obviously here in goodreads while browsing what chiclit would made my day and took a risk in this one.As soon as I started reading, I knew I would not stop myself from this addiction. But still, sleepiness win most of~~~ 3 STARS OR 6/10 ~~~This is chick lit. I usually don't read chick lit. And aside from the last few chapters of this book, I don't think I want to again any time soon.So why did I read it?Well, for one, the premise sounded good and secondly, the reviews were stellar. I should have clued in that most of these reviews were from regular chick lit readers--there's nothing wrong with that, but it's not my preference. So FOR A CHICK LIT BOOK...this was good.I liked, no loved the ending. The last
Awful book!, so boring!!!Everybody acted so silly, very childish and immature, God!, I wanted to smack them and yell "GROW UP!!!", they were all almost 30 and still acted like teenagers...
EDIT 7/5/2015: Lowered rating to 2 stars. I've been thinking it over and it doesn't deserve a three. You know 'em, you love 'em, welcome to the stage Nice Natalie and Cynical Natalie!Nice Natalie: It's been a while since we've been called upon to do a review.Cynical Natalie: Because Ms. Monroe was a lazy ass and didn't take notes. So now we have to do her dirty work.Nice Natalie: Oh, come now. It's only because she doesn't know what to feel towards A Girl Like You.Cynical Natalie: Well, I know
This was a ton of fun, with an incredibly satisfying emotional payoff. The characters are well-drawn enough to evoke Cecelia Ahern (without the magical realism) with maybe a touch of Bridget Jones's Diary (though a very light touch).What makes the book work, for me, is that I just liked Abigail so much. She has been in emotional stasis for a long time and seeing her emerge, and mature, was just a whole lot of fun. Frankly, it's a bit brilliant to take an ignorant observer and thrust them into
What a delightful read! Loved every minuteAbigail is a riot of a character and I found myself giggling out loud at some of her musings. Who can forget her little mountain goat dance - oh I did enjoy her character so much.Robert was amazing and I just adored the interaction between the two as I did the interactions with her friends.Just a wonderful book throughout and I really did enjoy every minute of it.This is my first book by this author and it won't be my last.
"I've discovered the secret to successful singledom. I'm acting like a man. And it's working." YES! This book made me laugh out loud and proud to love to read chick-lits. Calling all single ladies, you need to read this book! I feel us single ladies take our dating status as a mark of shame or punishment when we should be laughing more than crying of lack of men or horrid dates. Gemma Burgess makes dating life fun and laughable, which it is. She makes us women feel powerful, beautiful, and sexy,
