I really enjoyed this book. My first instinct was to pass it by, as I had already seen the movie, but I'm so glad that I didn't. While definitely chick lit, it's a fun and very entertaining read. There were times that I actually laughed out loud with the author's very humorous writing style. An easy, smartly written, funny book.

Okay, you have to ask yourself, "Is it okay to read a book about a character you can't stand who is getting beat up by a boss you would have told off right around lunch time on your first day?"

I loved this book! I wanted to read it before seeing the movie and thoroughly enjoyed it! Very funny - her boss is truly the devil. What an arrogant witch! I think Anne Hathaway and Meryl Streep will do justice to the lead roles!

I saw the movie first and was expecting a light comical read and did not get it. If not compared to the movie the book is very good. Just don't expect a comedy.

Just could not get into this book. I put it down and came back several times and still was not able to finish it. I guess it was just not my cup of tea.

Definitely a chick book! Since I grew up with a father in the fashion industry I wasn't suprised at the the lifestyle led by these individuals...in my opinion, very shallow and materialistic. I found this a quick read and I was pleasantly surprised with the ending when Andy realized that this type of life was not worth it - friends and family are more important than any type of "cut-throat" position where people are easily disposed of.
