Hated it. Horrid book from the beginning. I felt as though the author was trying too hard to show off what she learned in her college writing classes. "Look at me, I can use big words! I'm a college graduate who majored in English or creative writing. My vocabulary is bigger than yours." How pretentious can you be?

Ah! Love in the 90's. An insightful romp that's quick to read and lots of fun. You'll enjoy the characters and their adventures, especially the heroine Claudia Steiner. A super book to improve any mood.

Read this several times over the years. A funny, twisted little novel, SMART chick-lit

I really enjoyed this book! A funny (sometimes actual laugh out loud moments), quick, easy, and light hearted read. Think it helped that I'm in the age range of the main character, and thus was able to relate to much of what she goes through, and thinks. The narrative is witty, sarcastic, and fiery. Something I would recommend to the girlfriends as a fun read.

The cynic's anti-heroine. Pretty quick read but a little depressing. Despite that, I enjoyed the heroine's little antics with her employer and the slight romance. The endings a little unsatisfying but I finished it and that means a lot.
