Emily Huxby is a successful attorney with a big NY law firm. She has a great boyfriend, who seems ready to propose. So Emily dumps him before he can ask, sure she has made a good decision. However Emily's life starts to slowly unravel and she begins to delve into her life, questioning many of her choices.

This was a quick and enjoyable read. Chick lit with depth and a great cast of characters. I didn't care too much for Emily at first, but came to really care about her and was rooting for her to get her life together. I loved her Grandpa Jack and his friend Ruth, Emily's assorted friends, Kate, Jess and Mason, her therapist Dr. Lerner made me laugh. In fact I laughed quite often while reading this book, I also cried at parts, but in the end I really enjoyed reading this book.
