Search - Welcome to My Planet

There's really no plot to this book. It's more like a chat with a friend about all sorts of things that would interest a young 20-something - loser boyfriend, boring job, jerk of a boss, etc. However, it's not lighthearted or funny in the way Bridget Jones's Diary is. I found the lead character depressing. Much as I tried, I couldn't get into this book despite several attempts to make a go of it. I gave up half way because I refused to plod through another 100 pages just to say that I finished the book.

I thought this was a really funny book!

a great entertaining read. women can definitely relate to the neurosis of the main character

eh- a book about a woman with depression who has absolutely no reason to be depressed. i do understand that depression is a mental issue but i have to say that this book makes me want to scream at this lady to just get over it and move on! (and i do indeed suffer from depression- funny, no?) it was an ok book but pretty much pointless. the mother was the only thing that kept me going. do yourself a favor- skip this book and read something worth it...

Good book. Reminds me alot of "Ask Again Later" by Jill A. Davis
