I found this book absolutely delightful! For a chick-lit book, it deals with darker issues than is what is normally found in the genre -- it's protagonist was emotionally abused by her mother and sexually abused by her cousin, yet the book is a warm, wonderful, life-affirming read with bits of real life wisdom sprinkled amongst its pages. I love finding a book that is both thought-provoking and a bit of rollicking escapist fiction at the same time.

Another reviewer found this book offensive but I fail to see why. It is clean, no provocative or suggestive descriptions, the one hint of nudity is there for humor's sake and is a very funny scene. She took exception to a description of a minor character's freckled and ample decollete...we are bombarded with far more suggestive things from the media every day.
