"Loved this book. Very light and funny. I found myself both entertained with and frustrated by Becky's antics. I think that's why her character is so enjoyable; she means well, but she has huge flaws which make her the perfect exageration of someone enamored with the high-paced fashion world. I highly recommend Confessions of a Shopaholic if you just want a fun, easy read."

"Janet Evanovich never seems to disappoint. Another week or two in the chaotic life of Stephanie Plum. As usual, Stephanie attracts trouble and hottie Joe Morelli. If you've been waiting to see more of hottie Morelli, this is your chance. I love the characterizations in this book, from ex-hooker Lula to crazy Grandma Mazur. Great beach/pool read!"

"Great book to pick up and put down when you get the chance, light reading. The story switches back and forth between Stella Moon's past and present and really gives a good look at why she has made some of the choices she's made. Focuses quite a bit on her relationship with her father, a TV chef who prefers to live a bit in the past. Even though she's an adult, I feel like this is really a coming-of-age story, in which Stella figures out who she is. Different from what I normally read, but I enjoyed it."

"I have to emphasize that this story is fiction, based VERY LOOSELY on history. If you're looking for an accurate depiction of Anne Boleyn's story, you're in the wrong place. That being said, I LOVED the book. Very captivating and easy to read. Philippa Gregory does a wonderful job of putting you in the story and the feel of those times. I purchased this for a plane ride, and had a very difficult time putting it down! I highly recommend the book, especially if you watched the movie and were disappointed (as I was!). The Other Boleyn Girl is detailed and enthralling."
