Great book! You get a little preview of what each authors style is like. I enjoyed just about every story! Definitely worth checking out!

Fun lighthearted reading!!! I found a few new authors I'd like to look up!!!

I really liked this book, but I was a bit disappointed that they still seemed to be about women in the UK. I expected it to be centered around American women, but it wasn't. Oh well, great read anyway. Some of the stories I didn't want to end.

As with all short story collections, some are better than other but MOST of these were pretty good!

This is a fun and fast read for every woman. Full of short stories by American authors.

A lot of great authors contributed to this book, give it a try especially if you love chic-lit. I enjoyed it!

I liked this a lot more than I thought I would. Reading this turned me onto a bunch of authors I had never read before.

Some stories were cute!

Great collection of short stories by some top authors. Great quick read.

This book is a great little book or short stories. Great for taking to appointments and short waits.

Good book. Read it becuase of J. Weiner stories

Great, fast read. Seemed like most of the stories were all about working for NY magazines??? Still amusing stories!

From Publishers Weekly: Now that the Scottish girls and the Irish girls have had their chance (Irish Girls About Town; Scottish Girls About Town), a delightful—if uneven—new collection of 17 stories from American women authors hits the scene. While many stories are simply shorter versions of chick-lit books—breezy, light, fun—some play with the rules. The best of the bunch come from a mix of name writers and lesser known talents. Laura Wolf's "Amore" follows a young woman through her lifelong quest to bypass dull American boys and find an interesting foreign man—a quiet-sounding premise that heats up with an unexpected twist. Sarah Mlynowki's lively "The Two-Month Itch" chronicles the possible outcomes of kissing—or not kissing—the cute boy seated next to you on a plane when you're not at all single. Lynda Curnyn's "The Uncertainty Principle" is a dreamy, atmospheric story of what happens in one apartment when the lights go out in New York City in the summer of '03. And in Claire Lazebnik's charming "Leaving a Light On," a married couple pretends to meet for the first time in a hotel bar, spicing up their marriage with "casual sex." While this anthology has its share of mediocre padding, the gems in it are strong enough to make this a rewarding read for lovers of chick lit.
// Born in the U.S.A....American gals are taking liberties -- and pursuing happiness on their own terms -- in this star-studded story collection featuring the nation's red-hot women writers. // They've declared their independence! Jennifer Weiner (In Her Shoes) learns "The Truth About Nigel" -- and the trouble with falling for an incognito Hollywood actor. Lauren Weisberger (The Devil Wears Prada) sends a single New Yorker on a backpacking trip halfway around the world -- where she sees her love life back home with new eyes -- in "The Bamboo Confessions." A harried mom with a hit novel crosses the pond in "My Great Brit Book Tour" by Adriana Trigiani (Lucia, Lucia), and turns a crumbling talk show appearance into a sweet success. Also uniting their talents in this free-spirited anthology are:
JULIANNA BAGGOTT • CINDY CHUPACK • LYNDA CURNYN • QUINN DALTON • LAUREN HENDERSON • JUDI HENDRICKS • GRETCHEN LASKAS • CLAIRE LaZEBNIK • CHRIS MANBY • SARAH MLYNOWSKI • MELISSA SENATE • JILL SMOLINSKI • NANCY SPARLING • LAURA WOLF

It's okay, not as good as pure Weiner. Short stories.
