It took me a few chapters to really get into this book, but once I did I couldn't put it down. It was very entertaining - funny at points, sad at others. I was a little disappointed in the ending, though. Everything was wrapped up nicely, but it all happened within one or two chapters. It was almost too abrupt of an ending.

The blurb compares this book to Bridget Jones, but it's far more mature. The characters have more depth and complexity, and while it's very funny in parts, it's also quite serious and even sad in others. I picked this up as a quick, light read and was surprised at how much more it had to offer. Great find.

This book was alright. A classic Chick Lit book. It picked up in some chapters, but for the most part, remained a so-so read.

Although this was a cute book, not nearly as enjoyable a read as many other of Marian Keyes' books. The characters were not as likeable; I found i really did not CARE what happened to them. It picked up at times, but generally, was just a so-so read.

I kept reading how good this book was so I finally got it. I ended up being very dissapointed. Tara is the only character that gives life to this book but she still couldn't carry it. The story was too tangled and blah and Katherine is one of the worst characters I have came across in my reading. I also hate books that end in very neat and tidy in less than a chapter.

My sister brought this book up from down under, Australia. A different style of storytelling, choice of turning a phrase is unique, this story about 3 sisters was OK, but I'm trading it off for one I want to keep.
