This book has a different feel than the first two in the series but it didn’t stop me from loving it any less. I had a hard time putting the book down. There were plenty of twists in the story to keep me guessing. I loved the unexpected ending! I highly recommend this book!

This second Devil Wears Prada sequel (threequel?) doesn't have the bite and sass of the flagship novel, but the storyline is entertaining nonetheless. The writing isn't nearly as good and the characters are deplorable in their own charming ways, but I was actually invested in their lives enough to keep reading. Fun, breezy summer read, nothing more.

feel like the ending could've been better it could've been a longer book, but it's nice to have a sequel from the devil wears prada, Lauren Wesberger is a cultured genius

thank god this book was better than the second. just as dysfunctional and crazy, but i liked the new england spin. fell back in love with emily again and really enjoyed miriam and karolina as well. all were multi-dimensional, well-rounded characters and i actually cared about them (yay!)

spoiler: maybe this is just me projecting, but i’m a little sad that emily stayed on the baby train. i’m glad she’s happy or whatever but i honestly feel like having a kid doesn’t fit her character or lifestyle.

i get the feeling that weisberger thinks womanhood = babies, because that’s a central focus for many of her characters. plus, the devil herself melts for babies? i’ve noticed a theme… that’s why i took off a star.

regardless i really enjoyed this book, it was easy to read and kept me hooked. would recommend!

I didn’t realize this was the third to Devil Wears Prada 🤷🏻‍♀️ you don’t necessarily need to have read the first two to get it.

Overall, fun read!

I picked this up solely because of the title- I was looking for something funny. This was typical chick lit in my opinion, and it never made me laugh. The characters are all pretty unlikable, even the ones like Karolina who have no flaws and are supposedly perfect. Miriam was the only somewhat relatable character to me as she didn't get too wrapped up in body image obsession, but don't worry, in the end she finally loses weight and that's the most important thing she does in the book, so...

Fun read! I was really looking for something well written but light and this was it. As far as novels in this genre go, it’s pretty darn good.
