I don't know how I'd end up married to a rock star, but I have to say I very much enjoyed finding out all the reasons why I should divorce one. This has to be one of my all-time favorite post-breakup stories. I love Lily's hatred of her ex even as she morns the relationship that she never should have stayed it. As outrageous as this book is (for the purposes of hilarity - I would call this book slap stick), Lily's feelings seemed very real and it was easy to relate to her frustrations. The hero is not perfect either, which was kind of a relief since I need my happily-ever-after fix but I get tired of all the "perfection".
I found myself rooting for the side characters rather enthusiastically. I loved the bickering duo and the Scot who spent far too many hours on his X-Box.
If you're looking for a laugh, I highly recommend this one.

It was a quick read, very beach-friendly, typical chick-lit. I enjoyed it for the most part.

Lily was married to a rock star, until he cheated on her. She kicked him, he filed assault charges, so she flew to London to see an old boyfriend. And things get crazy.
This is not a novel of substance- it's just mind candy. It's like watching an old 80's movie on a rainy day. It wasn't bad, but it doesn't leave any real lasting impression, either.
Food: county fair cotton candy. Nothing innovative, just sugar that melts as soon as it hits your lips. Sweet and insubstantial and something only to be indulged in in limited quantities.
