Alison’s live in boyfriend goes out during a diner party, and while out calls up and tells Alison it’s over and he is in love with someone else. So begins Alison’s examination of her life and the meaning or existence of Big Love.

A cut above many chick lit books I have read. The dialogue is witty, the characters very real and believable. Snappy dialogue reminiscent of a scene from Sex and the City, you will be rooting for Alison the whole way.

Haven't quite finished yet, but unless something strange happens, I am REALLY digging this book! I have some things in common with the main character, though she's WAY more neurotic.

Perfect! It's like a highlights reel from "Sex and the City". It's that funny! Sexually explicit! Funnier than any "chick lit", as poised and accomplished as any literary debut this year, The Big Love is a bighearte, hilariously entertaining novel that readers all across America are falling for. Sarah Dunn moves between froth and depth, making her debut light enough for the beach but heavy enough to keep you thinking on ht eplane ride home.

A real disappointment. I couldn't get into this book until the very end. It just dragged on and on. I didn't find any parts funny and I can't believe it good four stars. Totally a waste of time.

Witty and true without being sappy. Better than the average chick lit. 8/10.
