A fun, light read. Definitely not serious literature but sometimes it's definitely good to enjoy the fluffier side of fiction. Pure fun.

I found this book to be a really fun read. There is not much of a plot - and the one it struggles with is very predictable. But Ms Sykes does a great job with satire and the book is extremely amusing. Her descriptions of the lives of NY socialites kept a constant smile on my face.

Not bad chick lit. A very quick read with a predictable ending, but very fun a la sex in the city, replete with Manolos and Michael Kors

Pure fluff. Completely designer name dropping. You need a chart to keep up! It is a crack up, though. I laughed out loud in some spots. Thought it was pretty unbelievable that someone could actually live like this and think like this until I saw Larry King interview Paris Hilton. Funny book.

ummmm......I didn't really enjoy this book. It seemed too out of touch. Wasn't very impressed.

I wasn't too crazy about this book, it seemed to taken me forever to finish b/c I couldn't relate to any of the girls but I finished it...finally.

Read this for book club. It's an interesting perspective of what it's like to live as a rich "princess" thanks to Daddy's money.

This book was ok. I love chick lit and of course thought that this was a must read but I wasn't really thrilled with it.

A fun summer read. Sex and the City meets Bridget Jones.

Bergdorf Blondes is a fun and lighthearted book about high society in Manhattan. The book is stuffed with humor, romance, and fashion which I love in a book.

Very easy read, but a good book as well. I like all the Plum Sykes book i have read so far
A really funny book, though it doesn't have much of a real plot. It's more of a very long vignette...Still, worth a read.
Hannah J. (This wasn't bad. good for when your mind needs a break from heavier stuff. a little unrealistic but it had it's amusing moments.
A bit predictable, but then again...isn't most chick-lit? Nevertheless, it was a very cute, fun read!
This was cute, my friend gave it to me to pass time on a flight. That is all I would use it for... to Paris and Nicole for me!!
Patty A. from MORGANTOWN, WV wrote on 2/4/2008...A so-so book. It was entertaining but very predictable. A light, fast fluffy read.
I tried to like this one. But just couldn't. Sometimes I can stand the shallow, selfish narcisstic characters. But this one was unbearable, and I only read about half of it. Just not for me.
Total fluff. But I really liked the ending!
Jamie S. from PITTSBURGH, PA wrote on 8/7/2007...I found it hard to get into this book, but I liked the ending. It is inconceivable to me that there are girls who actually live like these girls do.
