I don't do a lot of rereading, but I'm glad I reread this one. Even though I knew what was going to happen, I got to enjoy the sharp writing and great dialogue all over again. Sure, the recently-dumped-heroine-meets-Mr-Perfect plot feels like pure, wish fulfilling fantasy - but it's good fantasy. Th...
This is another one I re-read about once a year, and I love everything about it EXCEPT the heroine's food/body image issues, discussion of which takes up a fair amount of text and detracts from an otherwise near-perfect book.

It's a fast read, I'll give you that. I literally read it in one day. It's a bit slow and I'm not too convinced I liked the plot. The characters were okay, but sometimes they were downright annoying. I would have given the book two stars if not for some very funny an redeeming moments. In general, I...
