I don't expect much when I read Chick Lit. I'm not looking for complex characters or an intricate story line. I'm even okay with a predictable story and a neat and tidy ending. It's why I enjoy chick-lit and why I have my own rating system for chick lit.
Chick-lit criteria. Are there fun likable characters? A fast paced story line? Do I want to keep reading? Is the writing decent? Does the author tell a good story? I can say yes to all of the above with Holly Would Dream. I'm not sure how I came across the book but it was the only book I had with me on a recent trip and I wasn't expecting to enjoy it. I read it in one day which since having kids almost never happens anymore. A solid four stars!

Ridiculous, but fun.

A nice, quick fluff read. The writing was not the best, and I think the author layed it on pretty thick with the references and cliches, but it was still a fun little book. Lots of plot twists and turns that ended up with a pretty happy ending for most parties involved. I can’t say that I’ll be reading this again or picking up anything else by this author, but I can’t say no to Audrey.

Too much giggling by the main character. Too screwball comedy -- and I like screwball.

This was a quick fun read. The whole story and everything that happens are pretty unrealistic, but I enjoyed it anyway. Would be a good summer beach read.
