Well, what can I say. This book had a slow build up that lead to an anticlimactic ending. I fought with myself to finish this book and the only reason I finished it was because I hate leaving books unfinished. With each chapter I finished I hoped the story would get better, yet it never did. The worse part about this book was that I knew what was going to happen and I knew how it was going to end. The only thing I loved about this book was it's ending.
The main character was (Libby Mason) a woman in her mid twenties who constantly came across as childish, self absorbed and immature. Throughout the whole book I found myself hoping she would grow up and finally develop into a woman with substance and not a money grabbing whore lacking in character.
The second main character was Nick, a struggling writer around the same age and as handsome as he is nice. He's the kind of guy a reader falls in love with, except for the fact you can't see why he's with her. When they break up you hope that Libby will use this as a chance to grow, except low and behold she doesn't.
Not surprising, Libby meet's another man, Ed. Ed is wealthy yet an old man at heart. From their first date she's not attracted to him, except low and behold she continues to date him because of the gifts he buys her. He's a sweet man except there's no sexual chemistry whatsoever. Not surprising she still sleeps with him hoping to like it, yet she finds herself angry at him because she doesn't orgasm. I mean OMG even after you find out he doesn't sleep around and has very little experience she still doesn't find him endearing. As time passess she finds herself feeling smotherered by his love and adoration.
As I said before the ending is not a surprise and it's a lovely ending except that it's with Libby and I wished against all odds that the two end up together.
