Worth consuming for the child actor, he’s just the cutest thing and really funny! Stole the show. Otherwise your average chick flick and boring in some parts.

The only thing I can give this author credit for is the idea. The rest of it just made me want to laugh! Everything was so horrifyingly predictable – at first I wondered if it was supposed to be a satire on the quintessential “happy ending” novel of the time, but its countless sex scenes forced me to scrap that idea. Not to mention the endless (and I mean endless) coincidences and silly actions by silly characters that I just can’t be forced to believe.

And honestly, I just could not bring myself to like the protagonist. Her “modern” outlook on life seems, to put it plainly, like that of a modern hooker. She does stupid things and never learns from them – insisting that she won’t be “put down” by an era wherein it’s merely common sense not to do certain things.

All in all, the author had a good idea, but her writing was too silly to make it worth reading. At least it gave me a good laugh.

This book just made me very irritated. The writing was HORRIBLE. The author would go off on random tangents with upward of 20+ allusions per paragraph. It was like, WTF? Not to mention, the characters aren’t interesting. And the whole concept is a joke. I really did not get attached to this book in any way at all… and I usually do.

Weird, weird book, but it draws you in somehow (despite its many flaws!).
