This is the first time that I think the movie was better than the book. That is disappointing to say since the book usually have more details.

Such a great book! I got this because I liked the description and when I needed a break from the deep, loaded books, I picked this one up and was pleasantly surprised. I expected the typical girl falls in love with guy story, but it was well beyond that. Enough twists and unexpected surprises that kept me shocked many times throughout the book. I really thought I'd always know where the book was going, but many times I sat here thinking, "Man, I didn't see that coming!" I also enjoyed the writing stye and laughed many times through. My only complaint is that the editor wasn't very good. There are so many grammatical and spelling errors, even words missing (small things that probably no one else would pick up normally). And the author has a tendency to use the exact same phrases over and over again when describing things, so I'd be thinking, "Didn't she just say that exact same thing?" and indeed, she would have. This was my first Elizabeth Young book, but I plan to read others.

Oh, this was a pretty cute chick lit book - of course, it does seem to be the exact plot of a movie I saw on TV once, _The Wedding Date_, but with more family drama added in. Still, it was a very cute and entertaining way to spend the evening. I enjoyed _A Girl's Best Friend_ more, but this was pretty fun.
