Miserable, self-serving drivel told from the point of view of an unlikeable character. Mean-spirited and unfunny.

I absolutely despised this book! I hated the main character and didn't like the story at all.

Open front door to let out vodka fumes and cigarette smoke, only to catch the Ex hovering behind it with a glass beaker attached to his car, instinctively guess he is not here to borrow a cup of sugar because he knows I never keep food in the house, and it goes on from there!!!

Absolutely hysterical story about the most self absorbed character. Just about everyone knows someone like this at sometime in their life. Strangers came up to me in public to ask what was I was reading to make me laugh so hard. VERY British in styling, it does help to have some insight into English/European culture. Often compared to Bridget Jones Diary probably due to format, rather than plot. I thought this book was actually better than BJD.

It's very rare that I find such an unlikable character in literature... Katya Livingston is just plain terrible. She is the kind of terrible that you can't stop reading because you are curious what she has the audacity to do next. The world belongs to Katya, and the people in it exist simply to serve her. She is the definition of a person you love to hate. I read this book in one night and I adore it.

Take the book for what it's worth - nothing socially redeeming in this book but it is funny. I'd call it bubble gum for the brain but I still liked it,

This is such an awful book. The main character was horrible, the plot seemed to be missing, and it wasn't the least bit amusing. I dragged through four torturous chapters before I gave up.
