Using the clever medium of email transmissions from character to character, Meggin Cabot -- author of the popular young-adult Princess Diaries series -- crafts a hilarious story of a New York gossip columnist with journalistic aspirations, romantic complications, and one very large problem: what to do with her comatose neighbor's Great Dane. For Melissa Fuller, the path to true love is riddled with a pretentious ex-boyfriend, a best friend who's marrying into a crazy Italian family, nosy coworkers, and a boss who might fire her at any minute. If that's not enough, there's the mystery of who bonked her elderly neighbor on the head, and whether the neighbor's nephew is the man of her dreams or just a bad nightmare. This zany romantic caper is truly a novel for the 21st century!

Unfortunately, the second and third books in this series are about different people but i'll probably read th...
Meine Meinung: Erstmal muss ich sagen das ich mittlerweile Meg Cabot wirklich gerne als Autorin habe und Sie dadurch sehr gerne weiter im Regal stehen hab. Was ich aber an diesem Buch auch wunderbar finde ist das es mich so sehr an mein Lieblingsbuch von Cecelia Ahren erinnert. Denn diese Buch ist ...
