Book Description:
In this irrepressible, can't-put-it-down novel of six friends-each one an unforgettable woman in her late twenties-you'll meet:
--Lauren, the "caliente" columnist for the local Boston paper whose love live has recently led her to her boyfriend's closet...to catch him in the act with someone else
--Sara, the perfect wife and mother who's got it all but who is paying a high price
--Amber, raised a Valley girl without a word of Spanish but who is becoming a huge rock en espanol star
--Elizabeth, the stunning black Latina whose TV anchor job conflicts with her intensely private personal life
--Rebecca, hyper-in-command in the world of her glossy magazine, Ella, but totally at sea when it comes to men
--Usnavys, fabulous and larger than life, whose agenda to land the kind of man who can keep her in Manolos almost prevents her finding true love

This book was hard to read since I don't speak any Spanish. The plot was good, but I think that a lot of subtleties were lost on me...

More guilty pleasure reading! In a similar vein of "Sex and the City."

I loved this book - I fell in love with all the characters. It was very engaging, and I cound't put this book down. I am looking forward to reading more books by this author.
Maritza P. (This book was kind of a disappointment. It was really slow and I never really got into it. The ending also left me a bit unsatisfied.
FUN! Not at all what I expected. I loved the changing point of view of all the different characters.
I had a hard time keeping myself interested for the first 100 pages. After that I was pretty well aquainted with the six charaters and had a entertaining time reading their story. It was truley a celebration of what a friendship should be, no matter how different ones lifestyle or personality. It was abmirable to see these girls with such different views stick together and pull eachother thought their hard patches of live. All in all a good read.
When I first starting reading this, I didn't think I would like it, but it's one of my favorite chick Lit books....you fall in love with the characters!
This is an entertaining and inspiring book about the lives of 6 friends. The author gives each character depth, and though they are completely different from each other, they maintain their friendship through all of life's ups and downs. Excellent debut novel!
Meet the dirty girls--Lauren, Sara, Amber, Elizabeth, Rebecca, and Usnavys--six friends whose mutual support and (mostly)admiration society sorts out and celebrates the complications and triumphs in each other's lives. No matter what happens to each of them (and a lot does), the Girls dish, dine, and compare notes on the bumpy course of life and love. There's always a lot of catching up to do.
Quick and easy to read novel. Great beach book! Funny and entertaining.
