Twenties Girl by Sophie Kinsella

Monday, February 22nd, 2010

Book reporter Wendy reviewed this book last month, but now that I’ve read it, I wanted to share my review as well!

Twenties Girl is a quick, fun, easy read. There’s nothing earth-shattering or highly intellectual about it, but it’s a good book to put on your list. Some scenes in the book are a bit far-fetched, others are silly, but for the most part, they are entertaining.

There’s even a message in the book, which was well-written and genuine.

The only reservation I haveĀ  is that I kind of wanted to slap Lara, the main character, in some parts. On the other hand, I loved her ‘friend’ Sadie (although if I was Lara, I would’ve wanted to slap her at times!).

Something Blue by Emily Giffin

Monday, February 22nd, 2010

I just finished reading Something Blue by Emily Giffin. It is the follow-up to my previous book review of Something Borrowed. The flip side version of the drama, as we all know there are two sides to every story.

Before beginning to read this book, a few people told me I would end up liking the main character, Darcy, after hating her in the first book. I must say, even half way through the book, I kept thinking, “What are these people talking about? She is awful.” In the end though, my opinion of her completely changed. Told you so.

I really enjoyed both these books and I highly recommend reading them back to back. After reading them, I feel like I heard a story directly from a friend. I love books like that. The characters truly came to life for me in a very charming tale of friendship and love.
 
Overall: Great book. Easy read. Page turner.
