Cute story. The premise sort of reminded me of "Can You Keep a Secret?" by Sophie Kinsella; some other things reminded me of other books..sort of flightly girl (Lizzie), in love with fashion (reminds me of kinsella - shopaholic), is dating a british boy, and visits him for the summer, but when she realises that this boyfriend commits welfare fraud, she leaves him. Lizzie runs off to France to help her best friend cater a wedding. There she meets Luke (chateau owners son) and gets a very big crush. But Luke has a girlfriend.. Meanwhile Lizzie is considered to have a big mouth by her friends - thus the name of the book, but it didn't seem that way to me (much less babbling than you would think for a book named this. Maybe should have been named after her fashion obssession instead? Not that I disliked this proclivity). Drama ensues as Lizzie and friends run around orchestrating a large wedding.
