Helpful Score: 5
I enjoyed the other books in this series, but I could not finish this one. Perhaps I was just in the wrong mood at the time, but I found Tracey to supremely annoying in this outing, hitting the same whiney note throughout the first third of the book (which was as far as I got...)
Helpful Score: 3
Nice quick read, wanted to slap Tracey upside the head a few times but overall enjoyable!
Helpful Score: 2
Like some other readers noted, this book had me wanting to slap Tracey for most of the story. She was so obnoxious and annoying, I mostly skimmed the book to get to the fourth book. If I hadn't already had the fourth book here, I probably would have just given up. I get the female fantasy of wanting a man to ask you to marry him, give you a ring, etc. But I don't get a woman just sitting back and waiting for life to be delivered to her. It was hard to like or relate to a character who was so unwilling to take charge of any part of her own life.

I found this book to be very annoying! It took everything I had to finish it. I loved the first two books in this series, but the main character got on my nerves because she kept crying about when she would get engaged.
Helpful Score: 1
A girl-waiting-for-boy-to-propose story, although a little dull and predictable on plot. The writing is sometimes witty, and the heroine, although girl-next-door, sometimes verges on annoyingly shallow instead of endearing. Entertaining main character, but very flat and unimaginative development of her foil, the boyfriend.
This is a great 3rd edition in the life of Tracey spadolini. I can't wait to read slightly married next year!! What a fun series.
I found this book to be funny, but frustrating. Good read though, and can't wait to find out what happens next!
Great chic lit!
Pretty standard chic lit fare. Worth reading.
Another great book by Wendy Markham. I just couldn't put the book down. I love the character Tracey and all her adventures. It was great to see her go crazy over being egaged and the things that happened while waiting for it.
Good continuation of thee previous books in the series. A good, easy read.
Although I loved the first 2 books in the series I was not a huge fan of this one. I found the main character to be whiney and very annoying. Also a few of the characters that I enjoyed from pervious books barely make an appearance here. I will probably read the next one but it is not high on my TBR list.
Enjoyed this book!! 3rd in the series.......just as good as the first 2.
Absolutely holarious. Markham gets better with every Slightly book she puts out. I love Tracy more now than I did back in Single! Keep 'em coming!
There are a lot of things
worse than being Slightly Engaged . . .
being entirely broke, completely alone and wholly perplexed.
It's been a year and a half since Tracey and Jack moved in together, and everything's totally perfect -- well, okay, almost perfect. There's still Tracey's mom, who says they're "living in sin," and her friends, who are all smug, married and totally sure that there would already be a ring on Tracey's finger if she hadn't been in such a rush to cosign a lease. Even Tracey is beginning to wonder whether Jack really is looking for a permanent relationship, or whether she's just renting space in his heart.
But just when Tracey's doubts are seriously raging out of control, Jack's mom lets her in on a secret -- he's just taken an heirloom diamond out of the family's safe-deposit box, which must mean that he's going to propose any day now.
Okay, any week now . . .
Any month now?
Former Queen of the Office Christmas party "Don't" List, Wendy Markham fell in love with and married her boss's roommate, whom she met -- where else? -- at the Office Christmas party.
