reviewed on + 56 more book reviews


If you liked Bergdorf blondes you will definitly like this one b/c they have the same type of characters (Full of rich flakey globe-hopping-designer-label-wearing women that appear shallow on the surface but really deep down have big hearts and bleed just like the rest of us...in this book the focus is on the lives of confirmed permenant divorcee Lauren Blount and her best friend newly married Sylvie Mortimer. Lauren preaches the luxuries of being divorced (ie being able to spend your money, your "man of the moment's money" (the richer the better) and basically not having to answer to anyone or be anywhere or do anything other than 100% what you want want to do...who wouldnt want that life??? to lauren love doesnt exist which is why she is constantly tyring to recruit new divorcees
Sylvie on the other hand is a newlywed and swears by true love, monogomy, and her marriage... However, over the course of the book both of these women experience many bumps in their love lives and begin to question if their confirmed way of life (ie divorced life/married life) is really as wonderful as they say it is....In the end they both learn a few valuable lessons about life & love, and begin to question some of their set in stone opinions about relationships with the opposite sex...and ultimitly they find themselves doing things the swore they would never do

Again all i can say is loved it loved it loved it!!
