Read through page 53.I'm probably too snooty a reader for this book, and just having enjoyed some escapism through the works of Jane Austen is perhaps a better indication that I shouldn't move on to actually trashy stuff than that I should. I was ready for silly fun! The prologue was totally fun! Bu...

Contemporary romance isn’t really my cuppa, but this was enjoyable. I didn’t have as much trouble keeping track of all the characters as I feared I would (I admit, I’m daunted any time there’s a family tree at the start of a book), and yet I felt like I could have done without some of the family sub...

For more reviews, check out my blog: Craft-CycleI watched the movie adaptation a while ago and enjoyed it well enough so I figured the audiobook would be worth a read. The book started out well enough. I really enjoyed the descriptions of the food. Everything sounds so tantalizingly delicious. Howev...

Ah, the lives of the obscenely rich and famous! The wealth described in this book was sure to make even the most content of us wonder what it would be like to be THAT stupidly rich and never have to worry about losing sleep over an unpaid bill. Or maybe it was just me, ha! I really liked Rachel and ...

I really wanted to see this movie and decided to read the book first (and of course go see the movie!). So, this is safe to say a book review and a little bit of a movie review too. The rating is strictly for the BOOK.The book:Oh my, so many characters so much going on. It is not just about Nick and...

What a fun read! Lots of buzz about the movie and then the book went on sale, so how could I resist, even though it's not my usual fare. I will admit that I spent a lot of my reading time with a recurring thought of "Really? Is this for real?" going on in my mind because the book seemed to me that...

It’s a fun book to read. I loved many of the characters and hated others. It was definitely over the top in so many things but that is half the fun. That family tree is a lifesaver.It ends on a cliffhanger and I want to keep reading but I also kinda don’t? I care but I’m not that invested. I’d rathe...

If someone would have explained the plot of this to me, I probably would have said it doesn't sound like my thing. I'm usually not into just hearing about a bunch of rich people fake nice and gossip and count money and all that, but this was so entertaining. They were pretty funny. I'll continue t...

the writing is clunky but the story sucked me in, and I would periodically stop to look up what the various foods looked like, or the real locations in Singapore on Google Maps. While some of the character motivations seem off to me (Nick's guilelessness, mostly), I don't have a chance of understand...
