This is a definite "chick-lit" book, light reading and fairly predictable. Three friends buy a run-down mansion with dreams of flipping it for a profit, then (surprise!) it becomes a money pit. The book was reasonably entertaining, but the characters were under-developed. They came off as so shallow and emotionally immature, I found it hard to care about them. One of the sub-plots suggests the house is haunted, but as the real reason for unexpected phenomenon is revealed, I found it so unrealistic as to be ridiculous.
If your expectations are modest (after waiting nearly a year for this book, mine were probably too high), you may enjoy this book for what it is.
