Four Blondes 359 reviews Candace Bushnell
Grove Press, 2001
Sharp
A collection of four loosely linked stories featuring, as the title pronounces, four blondes. The blondes in question are Janey Wilcox (`Nice `n Easy'), a model who isn't famous enough to call her own shots so she spends most of her time looking for a rich man to take her to the Hamptons every ...

Slightly Settled (Red Dress Ink) Wendy Markham
Red Dress Ink, 2004
Top Two Don'ts for the Office Party. --Don't dress in a revealing manner. (Translation: Don't wear the sexy scarlet, size-eight dress you couldn't fit into three months ago. The one that flaunts your firmed-up cleavage and newly discovered collarbones.) --Don't make a spectacle of yourself. (Translation: Don't get drunk and make out with a really cute stranger for the whole company to ...

Good in Bed 762 reviews Jennifer Weiner
Washington Square Press, 2002
Great Start, Slow Finish
I read this book on Kindle, so I got to read a sample chapter before I bought it. The first two thirds of the book are really funny, and surprisingly well written, with enough twists and turns and great laughs to keep me avidly turning each page. Then the author gets serious, and all I wanted to ...

Slightly Engaged (Red Dress Ink) 15 reviews Wendy Markham
Red Dress Ink, 2006
book review
I was so disappointed! I LOVE Tracy in her past two books but this one seemed to try too hard. It got corny, repetitious, and a bit over the top humor. I felt Tracy would go on FOREVER with her thoughts and the book just seemed to drag.

Monkey Business 25 reviews Sarah Mlynowski
Red Dress Ink, 2004
Great book!
+ Great Book! + Should be a TV Show!
This book is great: as opposed to one person narratives the story here is told from the point of view of all four of the three main characters. This alone makes this book a lot more interesting than a lot of the other books in this genre.
The story is about four students, all at their late ...

Baby Proof 252 reviews Emily Giffin
St. Martin's Griffin, 2007
my favorite so far
+ Ok book + Not your typical chick lit
i thought this was emily giffin's "smartest" book yet. while i really liked something borrowed and something blue, the characters felt a little too conventional at times (rachel the "good girl" and darcy the "selfish girl"). i thought claudia was a more real, human character, a smart and ...

The Devil Wears Prada 1022 reviews Lauren Weisberger
Anchor, 2006
Good book, maybe slightly over-blown
+ Uneven
This is a good book, but what fascinates me most is that it has the most even distribution of reviews on any book I've seen on Amazon. 1, star, 2 star, etc. all get about the same votes. Take a look. You don't see it so even like that very often.
This is a book that is really not for ...

Red Dress Ink, 2003
Fast Fun Read
+ My first Mlynowski book, but definitely not my last
This was a really fun book to read. It had romance/ reality tv/ and shopping all rolled into one. I will definitely read more of Sarah Mylnowskis books.
