Excellent! (Rating 5 of 5)
» Lovin romance and chick lit!
This is one of Mansell's star quality books and one of her best yet!
The characters are interesting to the extreme and I don't think there was anything to say to complain about them.
The storyline was humorous as expected from a Jill Mansell book and I couldn't help laughing at the way some of the characters behaved at situations.
This is well worth five stars and it was a pleasure reading it. If you haven't read this book yet then make sure you do as you will be surprised at the twists and turns on the way
Not one of her best (Rating 3 of 5)

Not one of her best books - although parts of it were good I found some of the characters a little annoying. I've really enjoyed many of Jill Mansell's other books but just couldn't get into this one. It wasn't a bad read but I'm glad that I got this one from the library and didn't pay money for it
Actually quite a good read (Rating 4 of 5)

I picked this one up purely because i liked the look of the cover. Not the best reason to chose a book, i know, but this time i wasnt dissapointed. Although the plot was slightly formulaic, i dont think it detracted from the charm of the characters, and the honest, down to earth herione of the story captured your interest and heart straight away. Managed to read the whole thing practically in one sitting.
Great read

This book and I started off to a rocky start. I had just put down my twilight when I picked this up and I had extremely high expectations of the publication industry.
I was not dissapointed. This book was everything I wanted it to be (although it wasn't exactly a vampire love story) it was a funny, breezy chick lit with a twist here and there to keep me interested.
Groaned in frustration and some characters, laughed in hysterics at others.
Overall, I just thought iw as lovely. I got another Jill Mansell, Miranda's Big Mistake with this and I look forward to reading it!
Pleasant romp! (Rating 4 of 5)

Another pleasant romp from Jill Mansell, who I think is one of the original and better modern day writers of `chick- lit'. I have been reading her novels since 1998 and she always writes in an amusing and up to date way. Hardly `brain fodder' but nonetheless a good choice for those times when you feel like reading something light and frothy.
The main character in this one is `empty nester' Ginny Holland trying to build a new life for herself now daughter Jem has gone off to university.
As always in her books there is a good mix of characters whose personalities emerge throughout the story with good development of the characters and their interesting relationships!
