The wrap up which fixed things was a little too abrupt for me.

quick read... I loved the fact that a dietitian was the main character, you just never see that. However, it was classic chic lit... nothing really exciting or amazing about it.

I hate romcoms. This is a 2 for writing and a 3 for experience. This was the only English book in a German book swap and all I had in the hospital. Useful distraction with a predictable enough plot that being disrupted by healthcare staff made no difference.

I wonder if The Devil Wears Prada is written so boringly too? Or if maybe for me romcom books < romcom films (which I also don’t enjoy).

Good reminder that I don’t like this genre. Don’t do it again silly billy.

Enjoyable book. I was agitated at how much the summary of the book gave away. Do NOT read the book summary.

I can't say I hated the book, for Weisberger's writing is quite pleasant, but it told such a pointless story. Well, maybe for those who actually care about famous people and think fame would be wonderful, it could've brought some kind of new knowledge, but I didn't get many references it made and fame for me is such an annoying thing, so I must say (quoting): not my division.
It's an easy read, but it's a story that could be told in some 10 pages. Apart from the end, which I found pretty cliché - but then I find it hard to escape clichés in a book that was so cliché-ly structured.

Could not finish. I could barely start it.

I'm a sucker for a good chick lit. I really enjoyed this book - from the fact that the main character was a dietitian to the celebrity name dropping to the romantic ending.
