Search - The Devil Wears Prada (Thorndike Press Large Print Basic Series)

I've read this book a couple of times now and it is SO much better than the bubble-gum tween movie version of the story. The film just made the story too cotton-candy cute, not to mention the awful job of casting that was done or the crap job they did in the re-write for the script.

I find the book well-written and not the typical bit of chick-lit fluff where adult characters are lacking serious problems like alcohol-dependency, work stress and/or a potty mouth. The characters in this book may have jobs we can't relate to, but they have problems in their lives that we can be empathetic towards. The author does a great job of making them believable by using real-life language instead of toning it down just so she can sell to a younger genre that the sugary-sweet substitute of a movie pandered to.

Fun, fast read. I hear the movie stunk but loved the book.

Great dishy, fun read!
