It took me a few chapters to really get into this book, but once I did I couldn't put it down. It was very entertaining - funny at points, sad at others. I was a little disappointed in the ending, though. Everything was wrapped up nicely, but it all happened within one or two chapters. It was almost too abrupt of an ending.

The blurb compares this book to Bridget Jones, but it's far more mature. The characters have more depth and complexity, and while it's very funny in parts, it's also quite serious and even sad in others. I picked this up as a quick, light read and was surprised at how much more it had to offer. Great find.

Great brain candy--chick lit that won't rot your brain.

This was the book the started my love affair with all books by Marian Keyes. If you are looking for fun chick lit, for the beach or an afternoon cup of coffee, her books hit the spot.
